Artificial wombs don't reduce the period of bring a child to be be a functioning social being (currently 18 - 28 years). Nor the costs or other incentives or disincentives.
To me, the most likely consequence is to reduce the total fertility rate to one child per woman.
This is far from even hinting at an artificial womb. It is at best a replacement for an infant ventilator and incubator. In the best case, it will improve survival rates for fetuses that even today sometimes survive.
But the first 20 or so weeks, from conception up to viability, are an entirely different prospect and we have no idea how we could replicate them yet.
I believe this particular piece is like claiming that the ancient Egyptians being happy that they are closer to building space rockets, now that they understand how to build an aerodynamic tip for an arrow. It is a piece of the puzzle, but it is very far from the part that is extremely hard to do.
You'd be correct. Anyone that actually has to deal with regulators quickly understands how easy it is to game the regulations if you're someone of Meta's stature.
"""
Time dilation is the difference in elapsed time as measured by two clocks, either due to a relative velocity between them (special relativity) or due to a difference in gravitational potential between their locations (general relativity). When unspecified, "time dilation" usually refers to the effect due to velocity.
"""
wow thanks! this was super fun, do you happen to have some souce about the calculations that go into determining the time dilation based on different velocity? i'm aware about black holes being capable of well, doing time dilation thingy due to their massive gravitational force but nothing else.
edit: souce as in something a regular average joe can make sense of haha
More broadly, the series Cosmos with Carl Sagan was excellent, and is worth a view. The bit about time dilation is at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kWgEzxi_A0w . The more recent one with Neil Degrasse Tyson is also good (but while I enjoy both, I think I prefer the older one)
Time dilation! Time is relative. For an outside observer, over 1000 years pass, but aboard the ship, much less time passes. There are calculators for this, e.g. at [0]. If you constantly accelerate at 1g, flip around at the halfway point and accelerate in the opposite direction for the rest of the journey, roughly 13 years would pass from the traveler's perspective.
This site also has a "Newton's universe" mode, which pretends that relativity doesn't exist. Interestingly, in that case you would take over 44 years!
I am pretty rusty in special relativity, but IIRC, in the ship it basically seems like the distance is contracting as you accelerate. And from earth, it seems like time is going slower inside the moving spaceship.
With relativistic time dilation. 1000 years will pass on Earth, but on tge ship, it will be only a couple of decades, assuming they're close enough to the speed of light.
Tho if you're looking for a standalone app then you can give this a go : https://github.com/alex-vt/WhisperInput and run it right on your phone :]
