Curing autism is as ludacris as curing homosexuality. If you laugh now please remember this in 20 years and admit that you were wrong, thanks

So youre saying its not disproven that autism cannot be cured, hm interesting. Then you surely must also think that conversion therapy can work, many people there report it worked for them too, didnt they? And I did not lie. There are peopl

Thank you so much... It really feels like autistics are where lgbtq+ was 40 years ago - bad comparison some might, but the best one I know of!

No. Wiring in the sense of architecture. We process things from details to overview, bottom to top, while allistics do the opposite. Thats the wiring I meant. It is not wrong, you interpretet my analogy differently which can happen! Imagine

I agree that some parts might be fluid, especially what the term autism denotes and entails. The way I use it, it summarizes my neurological differences compared to allistics (non-autistics), not today and right now but throughout my _whole

The point is autism is a neurological condition - like a hardware wiring. Changing that because of bacteria can be compared to changing sexualities imo - and Im highly sceptical of it.

Saying autism depends on your microbiome is like saying your sexuality depends on it. Sure, might make sense, yet there is no single Person that changed its preferences after a change in diet or microbiome death through antibiotics. That so

In the end - an AI should have these competing subsystems in one system - just as our brains are one system. What I find extremely interesting is how perception and thinking differs from person to person too - it was a "taboo" to

True, iff the error persists correction cycles which are present, how exactly they work / if theyre comparable with eccs I dont know.

Im aware of that, but was rather thinking about ECCs like hamming-code, that are able to correct single sequences of info based on surplus info in that same string.

Might error-correction play a role? Having a lightly inefficient base 4 system might provide capacity for the surplus error correcting code information capacity?

It makes absolute sense. Our perception system is a giant Filter. Providing more information to it by emtion-provoking images rather than abstract, low info graphs seems logical to achieve higher retainaince and presence in people

Getting more publicity and public support and get the science much further in the mid to long term. Its a legitimate consideration to make imo. Were not bound by rocket capacity as much as we are by public support & funding.

Interesting aspect I wasnt aware of. What could a positive externality of e.g. co2 emission be? What of "fun" hobby noise? Do you have other examples? It wouldnt work to make a net calculation with its costs?

A general shift in mentality and therefore law has started and needs to be pushed through in the next years: Price externalized costs. The world was treates like an infinite resource that it isnt. Emit carbon? It has its price to emit that

Have you considered evolutionary selection as reason for c4 not being adapted by trees? Grasses profit much more from growing quick than trees, where new opportunities (e.g. trees dying, fires etc) are rather rare & being able to grow e

It has nothing to do with the exposed engine. 99% of the sound comes from the exhaust, which is built do be quiet (destructive interference) or loud (constructive) of exit gases. There are 300 hp cars that are quieter than 50hp motorcycles
