It is none of those things despite being not easy to measure. There are many phenomena not empirically proven that science still mentions and theorizes about. The quantum theory of cognition points to something like a soul mattering more th

This refers to physical impediments. Spreading legal information is not an impediment, it is free speech. If all info could be interpreted as impediments to federal officers then phones, the internet, the human voice, etc would be illegal

She says so eloquently what is such an obvious crime against consumers that we tolerate because we must. Modern serfdom is when “trust” turns to “must”.

True, I think this happened to my partner, she had to face the hard limits on her working style and therefore had to shift careers. Thankfully I changed careers 6 years ago preemptive of burnout, etc so I'm still growing skills-wise an

Anecdotally I’ve felt this shift over the past few years. I am 33 and have always been a huge proponent of personal growth, change, pushing yourself to be better. In the past few years Ive felt the opposite urge, an urge to accept myself, f

Profiting from a design failure indefinitely isn’t malice, it’s negligence that can still be considered criminal.

He’s projecting his own guilt about his actions onto another. As the article implies, he is a top candidate for Antichrist if there is such a thing, and on some level he’s trying to avoid that truth.

The existing state of society, economics, and governance in the US has led to many people and communities being left behind. Rather than support our people, we call them addicts and jail them for mental health issues. The US is an experimen

Humanities are why AI exist at all, talking about AI Safety musings as if that’s how humanities are relevant to AI is silly

Rigor is only valuable because the nuance of our existence, captured in the humanities and beyond the dichotomy of true or false, has been erroded away by an entire society built on top of abstract economic concepts in place of true communa

Coding does not equal logic. Language precedes every discipline and even the concept of rational rigor. The study of language, and the stabilization of its form, is what laid the groundwork for every discipline after including religion, mat

Coding is not mathematics, mathematics is a deterministic axiomatic system for describing quanta. Coding is the creation of instructions for computational logic that then is persisted in non-absolute matter as state. “Engineering” did not c

The humanities are why the internet exists. Coding is linguistics, writing is the key aspect of most software creation. Why then do we devalue this critical skill and those who wish to pursue its excellence? It seems most of ya’ll are conte

People who agree with this happening take for granted the critical ways humanities education contextualizes and guides stem research and progress. By studying the humanities you peer past the present and all of its trappings in the capitali

I meant to say historical personality. I thought I had heard about this type of ego-death when reading some of the early pioneer’s works but can’t find a mention. Basically it was the idea of who I was that had built up over time based on p

Taking psychedelics allowed me to shed years of guilt and my own historic personality to become a more open and grateful person. I think some people have psychologies built on strong foundations that if shaken by psychedelics, cause more ha

Progress is seeing the cloud from the particles I reckon. I am excited to see practical uses of measuring entanglement to push forward materials research. I’m curious about what other materials have linear changes related to temperature or

He needs to read about dissipative structures, it seems less likely that universes reproduce and more likely that reproduction comes from the same dissipative patterns of energy that created the universe

Right, my point is to push a more complex psychological truth, obviously they aren’t too hindered by these “defenses” if they can dismantle them and reuse them, instead their value is more symbolic, and if i dare, cultural
