    Creation: Believe It Or Not*

    TMSJ 13/1 (Spring 2002) 5-32 CREATION: BELIEVE IT OR NOT* John MacArthur President and Professor of Pastoral Ministries Naturalism has replaced Christianity as the main religion of the Western world. Though the teaching that natural evolutionary processes can account of the origin of all living species has never been proven, that teaching is central to the philosophy that now dominates Western scholarly thinking. Even evangelicals have become less willing to defend the early chapters of Genesis against the encroach- ments of evolutionary thought, although in actuality affirming an “old earth” theory and remaining evangelical is an inconsistency. A “framework” approach to those chapters does not square with a consistent hermeneutical approach to Scripture, because the first chapter of Genesis teaches that God created the world in a normal week of seven days. The purpose of evolution is to explain away the God of the Bible. The absurd teaching of the Big Bang theory of evolution is that nobody times nothing equals everything. It is a theory that raises an almost endless array of unsolvable problems. It is degrading to humanity, hostile to reasons, and antithetical to the truth that God has revealed. When one starts adapting the Word of God to fit scientific theories based on naturalistic beliefs, he has begun his journey on the road to skepticism. * * * * * Introduction Thanks to the theory of evolution, naturalism is now the dominant religion of modern society. Less than a century and a half ago, Charles Darwin popularized the credo for this secular religion with his book The Origin of Species.

This is a true copy of the thesis, including any required final revisions, as accepted by my examiners. I understand that my thesis may be made electronically available to the public. ii Abstract Public software repositories such as GitHub make transparent the development history of an open source software system. Source code commits, discussions about new features and bugs, and code reviews are stored and carefully attributed to the appropriate developers. However, sometimes governments may seek to analyze these repositories, to identify citi- zens who contribute to projects they disapprove of, such as those involving cryptography or social media. While developers who seek anonymity may contribute under assumed identi- ties, their body of public work may be characteristic enough to betray who they really are. The ability to contribute anonymously to public bodies of knowledge is extremely impor- tant to the future of technological and intellectual freedoms. Just as in security hacking, the only way to protect vulnerable individuals is by demonstrating the means and strength of available attacks so that those concerned may know of the need and develop the means to protect themselves. In this work, we present a method to de-anonymize source code contributors based on the authors' intrinsic programming style.

    Vikas Sindhwani Google May 17-19, 2016 2016 Summer School on Signal Processing and Machine Learning for Big Data

    Real-time Learning and Inference on Emerging Mobile Systems Vikas Sindhwani Google May 17-19, 2016 2016 Summer School on Signal Processing and Machine Learning for Big Data Abstract: We are motivated by the challenge of enabling real-time "always-on" machine learning applications on emerging mobile platforms such as next-generation smartphones, wearable computers and consumer robotics systems. On-device models in such settings need to be highly compact, and need to support fast, low-power inference on specialized hardware. I will consider the problem of building small-footprint non- linear models based on kernel methods and deep learning techniques, for on-device deployments. Towards this end, I will give an overview of various techniques, and introduce new notions of parsimony rooted in the theory of structured matrices. Such structured matrices can be used to recycle Gaussian random vectors in order to build randomized feature maps in sub-linear time for approximating various kernel functions. In the deep learning context, low-displacement structured parameter matrices admit fast function and gradient evaluation. I will discuss how such compact nonlinear transforms span a rich range of parameter sharing configurations whose statistical modeling capacity can be explicitly tuned along a continuum from structured to unstructured. I will present empirical results on mobile speech recognition problems, and image classification tasks. I will also briefly present some basics of TensorFlow: a open-source library for numerical computations on data flow graphs. Tensorflow enables large-scale distributed training of complex machine learning models, and their rapid deployment on mobile devices.

Dalton ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii Abstract CRAIG DALTON: Mashing-up Maps: Google Geo Services and the Geography of Ubiquity (Under the direction of Scott Kirsch) How are Google geo services such as Google Maps and Google Earth shaping ways of seeing the world? These geographic ways of seeing are part of an influential and problematic geographic discourse. This discourse reaches hundreds of millions of people, though not all have equal standing. It empowers many people to make maps on the geoweb, but within the limits of Google’s business strategy. These qualities, set against the state-centeredness of mapmaking over the last six hundred years, mark the Google geo discourse as something noteworthy, a consumer-centered mapping in a popular geographic discourse. This dissertation examines the Google geo discourse through its social and technological history, Google’s role in producing and limiting the discourse, and the subjects who make and use these maps. iii Acknowledgements This dissertation was only possible with the help of a large number of people. I owe each a debt of gratitude. Chief among them is a fantastic advisor, Scott Kirsch. His patience, grace, and good criticism saw me through the trials of graduate school.

Chapel Hill 2015 Approved by: Carole Blair Ken Hillis Chris Lundberg Todd Ochoa Sarah Sharma © 2015 Calum Lister Matheson ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii ABSTRACT Calum Lister Matheson: Desired Ground Zeroes: Nuclear Imagination and the Death Drive (Under the direction of Chris Lundberg and Sarah Sharma) A wide variety of cultural artefacts related to nuclear warfare are examined to highlight continuity in the sublime’s mix of horror and fascination. Schemes to use nuclear explosions for peaceful purposes embody the godlike structural positions of the Bomb for Americans in the early Cold War. Efforts to mediate the Real of the Bomb include nuclear simulations used in wargames and their civilian offshoots in videogames and other media. Control over absence is examined through the spatial distribution of populations that would be sacrificed in a nuclear war and appeals to overarching rationality to justify urban inequality. Control over presence manifests in survivalism, from Cold War shelter construction to contemporary “doomsday prepping” and survivalist novels. The longstanding cultural ambivalence towards nuclear war, coupled with the manifest desire to experience the Real, has implications for nuclear activist strategies that rely on democratically-engaged publics to resist nuclear violence once the “truth” is made clear.

    Health Options Foreclosed: How the FDA Denies Americans the Benefits

    Health Options Foreclosed How the FDA Denies Americans the Benefits of Medical Research Richard Williams, Marc Joffe, and Ariel Slonim September 2016 MERCATUS WORKING PAPER Richard Williams, Marc Joffe, and Ariel Slonim. “Health Options Foreclosed: How the FDA Denies Americans the Benefits of Medical Research.” Mercatus Working Paper, Mercatus Center at George Mason University, Arlington, VA, September 2016. Abstract In recent decades, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has assumed increasing premarket authority for drugs and devices. Given how the FDA’s regulatory stance has inhibited breakthroughs in the development of medical products, it appears that the agency will stand in the way of emerging technologies such as nanotechnology, synthetic biology, nanorobotics, virally delivered telomerase, and cellular therapy. These new technologies represent not only the means to prevent and cure diseases, but also the key to helping people live longer and healthier lives. We conclude, therefore, that an incremental approach to reform—one that would keep the FDA as the sole arbiter of new medical technologies—is unlikely to work. Rather, we think that a regulatory system based on competitive market approval of drugs and devices is more likely to strike the appropriate benefit-risk balance, including that inherent in the compassionate use of experimental medical treatments.
