I agree, but in terms of the theory, Jaynes spends some time at the start of his book explaining what he defines as consciousness, as it is only with that definition that the rest of the book makes sense.

In the bicameral mind theory (linked here in another comment[0]) Julian Jaynes proposes the Collective Cognitive Imperative[1], stating that this influences the tone and message of the hallucinations. [0] https://news.ycombinator.

I don't know the answer to your questions, but I recently read this and thought you may find it interesting, given your first question, as at some point Kurt Petersen developed devices that scan US mail for anthrax: https://

I really like TiDB but I don't think it's a general-purpose replacement for any other MySQL deployment. For what is described in this article specifically, TiDB would make you change the storage engine (from Innodb to Rocksdb), an
