The titles question is not exactly as discussed in the body of your topic. “Bottom up vs top down” is not the same question as “low level vs high level” or “domain specific toy language vs hardest core versatile language” (sic.) Outside of

Ownership enables experience. Yet the trivial, banal, waste of humanity is to allow lacking to deny necessity, or affix one’s potency upon possessing some “thing” which makes one good enough for whatever so ever. I do not condemn standards,

Inflection upon the substrate of existential being. In our case, that substrate is most likely the neural microtubules. Human consciousness is a composite of many sub-scopes competing for dominance as the singular coherent perspective of aw

Why not Behavioral Intelligence? After all that’s what we really mean. We want things to “behave” in certain ways, not necessarily automatically, rather responsively.

Unless there is a clear explanation (stress, sleep deprivation, change in caffeine/nicotine/cannabis intake, etc.) you should see a doctor! This could be an early sign of something more serious.

I have a small advancement in moral philosophy for you, though this “simple solution” requires some retooling of terms. This “Objective Morality” proposes that existence is the ultimate good, and not existing is bad (for the existent.) Good

I was mastering DOS and BASIC (on my own) around that age so it’s definitely possible. Here’s what I had going on - I got a Vic 20 at 9, and started on ROM BASIC - had my own computer in my room by 11. An IBM 8086 luggable (my dad got it fr

Math; after a middling life at math it “occurred” to me that math isn’t about “numbers of things” rather relationships of proportions of things. Manifold special distributions, inverse square laws of field propagation, base conversions (lik

The third, certainly the third. Did you know Muhammad was a [land] privateer? When blackballed by the corrupt regime of his day, he resorted to laying moral and rightful siege upon supply lines to feed his tribes who were otherwise pushed t

And for Islam, I recommend Karen Armstrong’s “Islam: A Short History”. This book gives context to Muhammad as a Man in addition to the influential religion he adapted/created (for most major religions are adaptations, “modernizations”

This bulldata is infuriating. “Ownership” of knowledge is a farce created by modern opportunists. All throughout human history every generation has had the right to assimilate and rewrite what has come before. From science to art (literary

What is further outrageous, that these “netizens” harass the parents for an apology in the classic mob style. In what culture do the parents pay for the sins of the children? Can’t we skin the right cat for civilities sake?

Such beings may very well live perpetually in a “traveling” sense. It is our primitive ideas that think of “going somewhere” as though in a trip there and back again. Once spacefaring, one might as well just keep going and going and going.

Over ten years! One cannot be a slob and get results you know. The difference between a normal diet and a super green is quite extraordinary. The only superior diet in my long quest for excellence is a regular juice diet, which is either in

Yes, they absolutely do! The “right ones” anyway. I have lived on daily usage for over a decade now, their results are empirically excellent. I think the trouble most have is consistency, particularly that your diet must change to eliminate

I question your motives. From the way you describe your experiences, it sounds like you’re a young adventurer on the journey. These things come in their own due time, and if they are appropriate, they will mature and flourish from within yo
