Thanks for application of irony to a thread about iron laws! Led me to the “unnamed” Ping-Pong Lemma, a great counterexample! Vespasian was, apparently, more inconsistent: https://sci-hub.wf/10.2307/1192680 https://sci-hub.wf/10.2307/1192680 (Im guessing he was as aware as MAA of the burdens of office) Hopefully we can return to the formalization of Nietzsche/Greco-Roman ethics/(New) systems of survival soon. State of my art, how to extend Boyd’s Ping-Pong Lemma* to Rao’s SoS (assuming it already works in JJ’s system) Maybe the eternal Culture War is indeed the Russell one (Banks’ having his Culture win the Mandate of H) . Hey, JAW was concerned too, we are now on the same hunt as the Masters? https://johnhorgan.org/cross-check/physicist-john-wheeler-and-the-it-from-bit https://johnhorgan.org/cross-check/physicist-john-wheeler-an... https://mindmatters.ai/2021/05/it-from-bit-what-did-john-archibald-wheeler-get-right-and-wrong/ https://mindmatters.ai/2021/05/it-from-bit-what-did-john-arc... *the same old, but generalizing boss to adversaries, also noting in passing parallelism of your justice-prudence to guardian/commerce, so temperance-fortitude maps to Blue/Red hypernormal/weirdo??? https://en.wikiquote.org/wiki/John_Boyd https://en.wikiquote.org/wiki/John_Boyd Front page activity indicates that cpython is becoming hypernormal ;) (even if GvR as a concept remains a Wojak)

  that reminds me, you might be interested in Prigogine, From Being to Becoming: Time and Complexity in the Physical Sciences (1980). Lagniappe: https://xkcd.com/2904/ https://xkcd.com/2904/

    I did a cyrsory examination of the genealogy a while back due to the events.. Ilya was probably quite related to.. Yevgeniy (verify?)

      on a quick Boyd tangent, the japanese three pwns (三殺法) easily map into Boyd's OODA: kill the sword - you are observing your opponent's actions kill the technique - you are observing your opponent's decisions kill the spirit - you are observing your opponent's orientations

        Not enough spare cycles to chew on that yet, just pointing: To buy time: weirdo -> peripherally oriented hypernormal -> centroidally oriented (Neither really observing the states of opposing camp beyond 1st pwn level, though the hypernormal may regard the other hypernormals as memetic rivals [the individuation in the Apolline]) Linux kernel devs —> … ? (Those customs inherited by crypto coredevs, hence also Yarvin, by diffusion, ..) Edit: something reminds me of the threeway struggle between the RI, the klepts, & the Met in Gibson’s trilogy+adaptation, which is not cleanly an indo-aryan division, as the Met is clearly the 3rd estate yet a warrior caste, while the klepts are merchant princes.. https://www.penguinrandomhouse.com/series/TJ3/the-jackpot-trilogy/ https://www.penguinrandomhouse.com/series/TJ3/the-jackpot-tr...

        Re: "it from bit", the MGM view is that most "it"s arise because the universe is full of interactions with negligible energy but decohering phase. (which physicist said "better to be wrong in an interesting way than right in a boring one"? I guess that was an early weirdo>>hypernormal slogan?) I'm closer to Apache devs than Linux devs, so using them as a proxy I'd guess the Linux devs to be closest to our earlier-proposed third ("hacker") SoS (though not as close as Knuth's squad, who are probably the nonfictional crew having the highest dot product with Castalia of which I am aware). In particular, the geek ethic (a peripheral center?) values prowess and openness simultaneously... [I'll have to read the Jackpots; tarnishing my geek cred I'm only up on Gibson through Neuromancer. On the jock front it's a tournament weekend for us, so my HN b/w will be limited.]
