We're running in a simulation that appears to provide compute/causality on one hand and infinite knowledge on the other (albeit limited to short access times). The most logical conclusion is that the software we're running on

A Turing machine is a good example of a construct that is able to self reference and take action based on measurements. In a Turing machine, one can model other machines. With human consciousness, this analogy would be applied to a "hi

I think you are mistaking the resulting meta-consciousness created from the game theory in society and government with individual's based consciousness and some internal intent to deceive. While I would agree the government may try to

EMC storage isn't free or Open Source, and yet people use it each and every day for mission critical infrastructure. If you are off put by Quobyte's technology, you should say why. I would note they are based in Germany.

I suspect tradeoffs on underlying performance as the cause for Aphantasia. There's a guy in Sonoma I met and he can see in 3D like I feel it, but then he can put textures on the model and see that. Visualize it. He's also mono

The problem is trust. Technological solutions exist that embody trust. People must trust technological solutions through social means...a type of prisoner's dilemma if there ever was one.

Reason can be had by measurement. Humans love to measure things. On the other hand, we also love to antagonize on how much to measure, how long to measure it, and what all the numbers mean once we've written them down. Sometimes writin

There's also the argument for doing things a better way. Our propulsion systems suck, which is why we're having to send robots to comets instead of humans. Humans don't get stuck in cracks. Robots get stuck in cracks because

You can use Stellar to build a gateway to another store of value, including bitcoin, dollar, mpesa, rai stone or, my favorite analogy, barn doors you have sitting in a shed somewhere.

Sorry about that. If it helps any, it would appear Aphantasiacs have purpose here. My kids have it. We're immune from commercial and "bad image" influence as well.

Most of us with Aphantasia can feel three dimensional models, however. My tests show I have a high accuracy of the items I'm feeling, but not necessarily a lot of detail. It could be compared to a 3D model with no texture mapping. I

Somebody worked their asses off to give us an immutable infrastructure on top of which our reality runs. I think rationalizing people being lazy (and speaking for their laziness) is a poor way of approaching things, unless we all just wan

I tend to think of it as unlimited amount of compute efficient at random intervals. Infrastructure will never be perfect, but it can be somewhat predictable when it is.
