Probabilistic models based on naive gross-over-simplification of wastly complex reality at its best. There is indeed a huge distance between DNA and non-genetic diseases and attempt to bridge this gap with a naive probabilistic model will s

There are lots of corporate VPNs and RPCs. Blocking of these will result in a disaster. So, just mimic, say, one of hundreds Microsoft Windows 10 user data collecting services. AWS traffic also never will be blocked. Notice that a selective

It should be https-inside-https (or http2 or even plain TLS) scheme for multiple AWS IPs. A bit laggy but will do the job. Wildcard blocking of these would break too many legitimate services, including banking, airlines, etc. BTW, the task

DPS will give you nice and beautifully encrypted payloads. Now what? Emulating a standard browser TLS handshake is a no-brainer.

Time to get funds for 443 port vpn startups. ;) Hint: TLS encrypted traffic following an appropriate browser-style handshake cannot be distinguished from "legitimate" https.

"Dollar studies" is perhaps the second bullshitest part of psychology after "infant-looking-times studies". Artificial cartoon-like setups and biased interpretations cannot be considered scientific or even accurate. Babi

BTW, the time part of "On The Electrodynamics" is nonsense ;) The notion of simultaneous with hands of a watch and beams of light makes no sens, because everything is simultaneous due to the nature of the universe. The notions of

I am standing on the shoulders of giants (Eastern philosophy since Upanishads). The notion that the nature of reality (of what is) is hidden from one by the veil of ignorance (one's own and socially constructed bullshit in the first pl

Nothing to see here. It is a naive or rather primitive concept based on assumption that there are more than one "future" (while actually there is none). The traditional example is that if I cross the street everything will be diff

Cooperation is related to a family (or a clan/pack) life. It is the "most natural" survival strategy. Expanding it to a non-keen is not a big deal. Nothing to see here.

It seems that the source build is broken. At least a straightforward attempt to build otp from github sources with latest clang/lld has been failed.

Oh, so cannabis decreases entropy of the universe, how wonderful! I wish I could have a chance to smoke what they had. Ageing essentially is the same process as erosion of mountains. No amount of cannabis or LSD would help.

This is how to distinguish a cosplay of intelligence from true intelligence, among other things. The Buddha and the Upanishadic seers were exceptionally good with explaining complex phenomena in simple terms. Apparent sophistication is a si

Exactly. Babies (before language acquisition) are communicating in the same way - only expressing emotions with cries and other forms of non-verbal communication.

Read about how much time and resources has been spent on monkeys and dolphins and what the findings are. Hint: no regular structure. Emotional signals and stress calls only.

Linguistics, second edition by MIT Press is enough. Knowledge of fundamental principles spares one from memorizing all the details. A distinct area of the brain (which birds does not evolved yet) and related corpus collosum linkage are requ

Like in music, temper, volume and pitch could be varied, nevertheless bird calls has no regular structure similar to what a language has. Let's not even start about language capabilities in birds.

by lngnmn 9y ago
I would stay with MIT linguists, if you would permit me. No animal signal system has a regular structure and no animal has a brain capacity for producing an arbitrary sequence of phonemes. Only mimicking capabilities. Thank you.

by lngnmn 9y ago
Bullshit. That requires brain capacities birds does not possess. These calls are random variations learned from experience (by mimicking other birds). With enough of machine learning I could publish that trees have a sign-language.

A friend of mine asked me to clarify a bit and to cut out my silly jokes. The main question of Eastern philosophy (What is real? What is?) is way too far away from being answered adequately. One very old and very naive view is that nothing
