That was a bad post. The figure of 300ms was from memory. I guess it's complex but for games shmup games ( https://www.pubnub.com/blog/how-fast-is-realtime-human-perce... ): " ...for Massive Multiplayer Online

A 120ms should feel immediate. IIRC anything under 300ms feels instant.

I have a background in formal methods and PLs, and never used it. I understand the supposed benefits but IME they never got used. Clearly you have used it, so I'll take time looking over your stuff (though I don't know lean). I ap

I've had a quick look over your posts, and I will look over the more carefully as a refresher on these kinds of things (I have looked at Hoare logic which this resembles, and a couple of other related things). The problem is to me,

Ah, so we're definitely not talking bolting together the little stuff, like pyrrole + benzene ring kind of thing?

Yeah, opuntia pads do root easily. I also won't have them in the house any more. Guess why (shudders with memories of pain) But other columnar cacti do root easily, eg. trichocereus (though it's is a mountainside cactus not desert

Rudeness entirely deserved, should have read the article more carefully, thanks. Actually the pics I can see don't show much vegetation around the base. It could be that they just aren't evolved to deal with fire ie, dried out bas

I don't understand, vegetation in that desert is pretty scarce, so what's burning so hot it can kill cacti. As for the cacti, if anyone reads this who can tell me this is wrong: chop up an existing saguaro into sections a foot or

We couldn't be further apart in many ways, but in being 'fallen' from what we could have been... yeah, we're strangely indistinguishable. Thanks for your reply, it's appreciated.

No it's not obvious at all . Chimp tribes kill each other, ditto human tribes, and many other species. Added: to me it's about the last thing I'd have expected.

I won't judge you or your comment but I have to say as a rationalist(?) and atheist, it seems very odd to suggest the natural world would be a kind place if we were less destructive to it. By kind I mean non-infectious, non-aggressive,

Calling it cynical is a cheap way to dismiss it, and my experience of seeing it first hand. Well done. Animals there are predominantly seen food and organic machinery (and in the case of stray cats/dogs, pests). > Genesis and Leviti

In a barely literate pre-industrial culture, yes, dominion = abuse. I know firsthand how peasants treat animals, and if you went to a country in poverty you'd see it too. And it is explicit in one quote Genesis 9:2-3 - The fear of you

AIUI the western view of animals was via the bible, of resources provided to us by god, a gift to humanity; there to be used however we wanted.

Jaysus! Is there anything wikipedia doesn't have a detailed article on. (checks page history, nope it's been around a while, I guess you didn't just write it to win this one) Good catch anyway!

Because the former mechanism, for lamarkism, wasn't given, and Some kind of "genetic intelligence" is just a vacuous proposition, so why raise it. Your mention of epigenetics was a sensible suggestion in that at least it&#x

Maybe. What mechanism though. Compare with evolution whose mechanism is mostly known and well understood. Why pick the former when the latter works.
