Yeah, and I think this is obvious, but it certainly depends on the origin of the data being checked. We can prove the structure of “allowed” data ahead of time if we want guarantees on what’s possible inside our program. We also want a

Yeah, blue doesn’t seem to appear in the New Testament (Greek), but it’s in the Old (Hebrew) as “Tekhelet”[1] which can apply across different blue hues, from turquoise to violet. [1]: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tekh

CollapseOS is trying to meet that promise too. It’s interesting because it does unwittingly follow Wirth’s thinking. Collapse would be a consequence of allowing ourselves to not to understand our systems.

I missed the golden age of lisp, but i know this project for its legendary structural editor, SEdit[1], released the year I was born. i found it mentioned in an old paredit readme, something poignant like “paredit is only a shadow of what

It’s clearer in 2D. Rotating by angle `a` tilts the x-axis to (cos(a), sin(a)), because that’s the very definition of cosine and sine (i.e. the x and y components of angles on the unit circle). The y-axis just flips the components and neg

thanks for that. what would you point us to if we were interested in learning political science? (e.g. books, courses, communities, podcasts, blogs, channels?)

I like your choice of phrasing on “impression”. I think it captures what is meant by embodiment, that the knowledge is in the body, so you can get at it by imitating the whole of a person.

my comment was way off the mark, didn’t realized it sounded sarcastic. i was instead trying to appreciate his approach to the intangible—pointing to direct experience to avoid stockholm criticism.

> Forth doesn't elegantly describe complex algorithms… However, this mental pain does makes you question your need for complexity… This is something that I think few developers are familiar with and is hard to describe with words.

Seeing this—every map projection approximated as idealized orange peels—did something to me when I saw it in 2008. I can’t quite remember the feeling, but it was similar to how I felt after watching Inventing on Principle —the authors as

My favorite approach[1] to the mind–body problem is a recent one, placing the interaction between the mind and body at actual primacy. Neither the perceived nor the perceiver can exist without the process of perceiving . However abs

Is solar just a stopgap tech? Like, do they still require fossil fuel energy to create, not to mention maintain and rebuild? And I know we’re now strip mining the ocean for battery metals. I don’t yet sense the sustainability in this amid a

that’s profound. we should have drinks. your comment resonates with the thesis that it’s easier to imagine the end of the world than the end of capitalism—that our inability to imagine and provision for the future, is the death of our imag

I don’t really understand your descriptions. Maybe you can ground it for people better by comparing visuals produced by normal FFT and your novel method. I might go further by letting people hear the difference between them (by transposing

A question comes to mind: What would be preserved if converting the visuals back into audio? This may help answer another question: What type of visual would allow feeling the music without hearing?

I got stuck on causality invariance—not getting the orange edges on the graph. It seemed like the root should’ve been connected to every node, so I’m clearly missing something.

I can’t find the source now, but does anyone remember the collection of color names based on real things? It felt meaningful to remember the spectrum of colors that way (instead of arbitrary qualifiers), but now I can’t find it.
