I feel like lucid dreaming is in a way the baseline and that when we're awake, reality constantly knocks us back into groundedness. In a lucid dream there is no error correcting signal to keep our fabulations in check. Things tend to d

I wonder what the limits are to such a universal codec. From what I've gathered about synaesthesia (e.g. from V.S. Ramachandran, or Galton earlier), it varies quite significantly between persons. I believe it's said that some 3% o

I'm just a low tier ML engineer, but I'd say you generally want to avoid splitting GPU resources over many libraries, to the extent it's even practically possible.

It does sound impressive to the extent biological neurons are like ML neurons, though. And that's part of the research interest, I presume. To the extent that they work by similar principles, how come the worm can do those things with

I'm reminded of how one writes programs. I cannot maintain the state of the machine in my head, but I can convince myself of its workings, its intelligence, by reading the code, following along on its line of reasoning as it were. I th

I found YouTube Music surprisingly full-fledged. The library is not as complete as Spotify or Apple Music of course, but, you also get the user uploads, which is a much more reliable resource for those few odd tracks. With Premium you also

Indeed. Carmack wasn't simply betting on VR; more specifically, he was working on VR for mobile devices, where his expertise was a good fit.

Many thanks. He certainly carried thoughts beyond the tabula rasa.

That's precisely the content I had a dim memory of. Thanks for the summary. Good points and assessment.

I recall picking up something along those lines on my cursory reading of the Enquiry. Do you have a quote? Would be much appreciated.

It makes sense that the design converges with Firefox's, but the flame doesn't really translate the same way with Thunderbird. I never thought of the connotation with "firewall" before, though one could say that it'

The way it makes up explanations for its own behavior reminds me of those split brain experiments where one brain half makes up explanations for things the other half was instructed to do.

The images were always what drew me to NKS, and CA in general obviously. I don't expect to find any answers in them; for me it's a gateway to ontological mysteries. I'm quite content spending time just in wonder.

Exactly. Glad we share the same view.

That's true. It's a convention. I thirst for an epistemological investigation, in turn, I suppose.

Thanks. It's nice to hear the 80's article was acknowledged. Game theory dynamics are fascinating. I have Nowak's Evolutionary Dynamics in my shelf, in which he covers for instance spatial prisoner's dilemma modelled as

This has me thinking about Wolfram's four classes of behavior for simple programs [1]. He hypothesizes that the irreducible complexity of class 3 rules means that they are Turing complete, and in a sense maximally complex, which has be

I'm upvoting you because I don't have it in my muscle memory yet to use ChatGPT for these thing. Turns out I could have just read the abstract though.

In general, couldn't a function be monotonically increasing in some interval and still have many points such that y = x? A curve that jiggles around the line y = x for instance.
