隐藏八年之后,比特币之父“中本聪”终于现身
5月2日,澳大利亚科技企业家克莱格·莱特(Craig Wright)对英国广播公司(BBC)表示,他正是比特币的创造者。这一消息的宣布也结束了人们对于比特币之父“中本聪”(Satoshi Nakamoto)真实身份的多年猜测。
On May 2, the Australian tech entrepreneur Craig Wright told the BBC that he was the creator of Bitcoin. The announcement also ended years of speculation about the true identity of Satoshi Nakamoto, the father of Bitcoin.
BBC称,莱特通过使用属于比特币创始人所拥有的比特币,从技术角度对自己创造者的身份进行了证实。
According to BBC, Leiter technically confirmed the identity of his creator by using bitcoin belonging to the founder of Bitcoin.
报道还说,比特币社区的重要成员也已经对莱特的身份进行了证实。报道同时还表示,除了BBC,莱特还向英国《经济学人》以及《GQ》杂志发去了同样的声明。
The report also states that important members of the Bitcoin community have confirmed Leiter’s identity. The report also states that, in addition to BBC, Leiter sent the same statement to the British Economist and to the magazine GQ.
不过,《经济学人》对这一声明并不完全信服。该杂志表示:“我们的结论是,莱特先生可能是中本聪先生,但还是一些重要的问题没有定论。事实上,究竟谁才是比特币的创造者可能永远存疑。”
The Economist, however, is not entirely convinced by this statement. The magazine says, “We conclude that Mr. Leiter may be Mr. Bint, but that some important questions remain open. In fact, who is the creator of Bitcoin may be in doubt forever.”
澳大利亚税务办公室(ATO)以及警方对于此报道尚未进行置评。
The Australian Revenue Office (ATO) and the police have yet to comment on this report.
网友评论:你倒是说说你拥有的比特币值多少钱啊?

中国独立设计建造世界首个全超导“人造太阳”
据中国之声《央广新闻》报道,中法核聚变合作周本周在位于安徽合肥的中科院等离子体物理研究所正式开启。中国科学家独立设计建造的世界首个全超导“人造太阳”实验装置EAST向世界全面开放、共享。
According to the Chinese Voice 'Yanguang News', the Chinese-French Nuclear Fusion Cooperation Week was officially opened this week at the Institute of Plasma Physics of the Chinese Academy of Science, located in Anhui Fertilizer. China's scientists independently designed and built the world's first fully-guided “ artificial Sun” experimental device, EAST, which is open to all and shared with the world.
在开发核聚变能被人们形象地称为“人造太阳”的路上,如果人类掌握了核聚变能源,将拥有可使用上十亿年的清洁能源。因此受控热核聚变实验装置被人们称之为“人造太阳”,是地球寻找能源出路的希望。
On the path to the development of nuclear fusion energy that is imaged as the “made sun”, humans will have clean energy that can be used for billions of years if they have access to nuclear fusion energy. So the controlled thermal fusion experiment is called the “made sun”, which is the hope of the Earth to find an energy solution.
核聚变实验堆的设计和建设是一件十分复杂、艰巨的工程,中国科学家开始破题很多世界级难题。今年1月份,EAST成功实现电子温度超过5千万度、持续时间达到102秒的超高温长脉冲等离子体放电,这是国际托卡马克实验装置在电子温度达到5千万度时,持续时间最长的等离子体放电。
The design and construction of the nuclear fusion experiment reactor is a very complex and difficult project, and Chinese scientists have begun to solve many of the world-class problems. In January this year, EAST successfully discharged the super-high-temperature long-pulse plasma, the longest-lived plasma at 50 million degrees of electron temperature, with an electron temperature of over 50 million degrees and a duration of 102 seconds.

互联网造车火热 李想创办的车和家估值高达30亿
股公司利欧股份(002131.SZ)昨日晚间发布公告称,公司与其他7名投资人拟共同出资7.8亿元对李想创办的北京车和家信息技术有限责任公司(简称“车和家”)进行增资。
The shares company León (002131.SZ) announced yesterday evening that the company, together with seven other investors, was proposing to co-finance $780 million to replenish the Beijing car and the IT limited liability company (“car and home”) that Li wanted to create.
该公告指出,利欧股份将出资3.5亿元,增资后将持有车和家11.745%股权,旨在实现公司在智能电动汽车制造领域的布局。根据利欧股份的出资和占股信息可知,车和家整体估值已达29.8亿元人民币。
The announcement states that the shares of Leo will contribute 350 million yuan, which will be replenished to hold 11.74 per cent of the shares of cars and households in order to achieve the company’s layout in the area of smart electric car manufacturing. According to information on the financing and shareholding of the shares of Leo, the overall value of the cars and households has reached 2.98 billion yuan.
去年11月,李想就对外放出了寻求融资的信号。他当时表示,车和家从零开始,一直到把第一款量产车销售一年,总共需要花四年时间,大概需要2亿美元的投入,目前已经准备好了1亿美元。这意味着,车和家当时还在寻求1亿美元的融资。
In November last year, Lee wanted to send out a call for financing. He said that the car and the home were still looking for $100 million in financing, starting from scratch, until one year to sell the first-volume car, for a total of four years, about $200 million in investment.
李想称,车和家提供不依赖充电桩,像汽油一样方便的电动车;将提供两款车型来满足90%的城市需求,一款小而美的SEV,一款大而强的SUV;车和家改变传统的4S店的销售与服务模式。
Li would like to state that cars and homes provide electric vehicles that are not dependent on chargers and that are as easy as gasoline; will provide two models to meet 90 per cent of urban demand, a small and beautiful SEV and a large and powerful SUV; and will change the sales and service patterns of traditional 4S shops.
网友评论:互联网造车如火如荼,但是还没有一家给出靠谱的量产车,都还在讲故事。
Netizens comment: Internet-based cars are hot, but there is no one that gives a proper scale, and they're still telling stories.
40%游戏玩家计划在一年内购买VR设备
美国娱乐软件协会本周刚刚发布了一个美国游戏业的年度报告,该报告中指出,根据ESA(美国生态学会)的调查数据,大约有40%的游戏玩家有计划在未来一年内购买虚拟现实头戴装置。
The American Entertainment Software Association has just published this week an annual report of the American game industry, which states that, according to survey data from the ESA (American Ecology Society), about 40 per cent of game players have plans to purchase virtual reality headwear devices in the coming year.
这显然是个好消息,之前还有很多科技界人士在担忧VR被过度炒作,现在看来不久的以后将VR当道。根据这份ESA的调查报告,55%的游戏玩家熟悉了解VR技术,并且在这部分人里面58%的人打算玩VR游戏。
This is clearly good news, as many people in the scientific community were worried about VR being over-exaggerated, and now it seems that VR will soon be on its way. According to this ESA survey, 55% of game players are familiar with VR techniques and 58% of them are planning to play VR games.
此前根据Digi-Capital近期发布的一份报告,到2020年,虚拟现实技术的市场规模将达到300亿美元。现在看来,也许这个进程会大大加速。
According to a report released recently by Digi-Capital, the market size of virtual real technologies will reach $30 billion by 2020. Now it seems that this process will probably accelerate considerably.
网友评论:计划买和最终掏钱买并不是一回事。
Netizens comment that it is not the same thing to plan to buy and eventually pay for it.
微软全新黑科技 Pre Touch将秒杀3D Touch?
苹果一度让 3D Touch 成为了流行词,而且一些智能手机厂商也开始为自己的旗舰产品搭配 Force Touch 功能。不过看起来,微软是要将 3D Touch 送进坟墓里去,因为他们很可能带来更棒的 Pre Touch 功能。
Apple once made 3D Touch a popular word, and some smartphone manufacturers have started to match their flagship products with Force Touch. But it seems that Microsoft is sending 3D Touch into the grave because they are likely to bring better Pre Touch functions.
Pre Touch 看起来与三星 S-Pen 的 Air Command functionality 功能非常相像,Air Command functionality 功能可以让 S-Pen 不接触屏幕玻璃就可以操作,那么为什么说 Pre Touch 很像 Air Command functionality 呢?
Pre Touch seems very similar to Samsung's S-Pen function, which allows S-Pen to operate without contacting the screen glass. So why do you say PreTouch is a lot like AirCommand operation?
因为,微软的新发明可以让我们忘记输入笔的存在。当你的手指在屏幕上方徘徊的时候,你就可以发现屏幕开始工作,显然这会让我们在使用智能设备时更加的方便。比如说,一个视频播放器应用感受到我们手指接近的时候,我们将看到屏幕上的控制自动出现,是不是感觉和科幻电影中的场景一样?
Because Microsoft's new invention allows us to forget the existence of the entry pen. When your finger is hanging over the screen, you can see that the screen is starting to work, which obviously makes it easier for us to use smart devices. For example, when a video player uses our fingers to get close, do we see that the controls on the screen appear automatically, like the scene in a science fiction movie?
网友评论:最好是我能够坐着不动,通过眼球转动就能完成各种操作,这才是黑科技。
Netizens comment: It would be better if I could sit still and do all kinds of things through eye swings, which is black technology.
