Makes sense to me. Two things with the same connections to other things are the same thing. Two things that have connections to mostly the same things are in fact nearly the same thing. A chopstick behaves like a chopstick because it is mos

Yeah, but the vision of the article is bob on. This is how things are going to be (source: usually being right)

Absolutely. I have a comp sci degree, I was able to obtain first class results by learning intensively for an average of two months before each set of exams (having not attended any lectures at all). I also went from a D grade in maths GCSE

I tentatively agree with you. Although I am a parent and my child will be going to school - I do feel that the rail road that takes you from childhood to productive adult under the tutelage of the state is fundamentally a coercive one. It i

This is so yummy. Wonder if you could do something similar with 3D printed shapes. Using static or something - design the shape of the elements to express an uneven surface charge and then design a range of such shapes to express a composit

I agree with you. I just cannot understand where people are coming from when they rush to defend the hierarchical organisation of society. It's just like you've attacked their religion.

No they don't. Pointing in the vague direction of an exemplar system and describing it a positive argument does not constitute an argument.

Hierarchical systems do NOT scale well. If you want to scale something it needs to be distributed and in human terms that means equality, action by consensus, local decision making. The properties of the system must emerge from the global r

"The world these children will inhabit as adults will be a familiar one, a world that has been part and parcel of their childhood." The adult world does not live up to this ideal - at all.

Yes. But when they work - they work. Spending half the day on facebook is not productive.

I know. I am so fucking angry no one told me this. I am a creative person I become very depressed without creative control. I had no idea programming was going to be this way and now I am stuck in a life of boring drudgery, wasting my life

We are what normal people rely on to get the computer to do things that they find difficult. Things are getting so complex for us that we find it difficult to service the requests. Solution: We need someone to help us to solve the problems.

No one is going to listen to this - but what the hell: The solution is totally obvious. The code we write has a form defined by it's input->output mapping over all possible inputs. Write a function and you immediately define this in

Although the surface is very unpleasant indeed - it is hypothesised that there are habitable bands in the atmosphere.

It can't possibly be the machine translation is becoming very good, can it?

Why do we insist on character worship. Hyperloop is not his idea - it's a totally obvious idea that has popped up many times since the 1800s: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hyperloop#Historical Compressing the air

20 minutes every hour - this effect is really not very surprising. I mean good they've done the research to confirm - but it's totally obvious.

I had a similar thing. imho: More than likely you are pushing your feelings away - it's a cognitive style. Try to listen to the physical sensations of everyday life, eating, talking, etc. Possibly get some therapy...

If there was a competition to find the craziest idea that will one day be found to be true - I'd pick panspermia. Although all life being descended from tardigrade cancer is a little out there even for me.

I made a couple of hundred pounds out of 20 by spotting intra exchange arbitrage opportunities on cryptsy. Just calculated all possible paths through the various coins and waited for a profitable loop to open. It was like riding waves throu

If they can deny climate change, you can bet your bottom dollar they can deny the necessity of basic income. If only people had a 'be bloody logical for one God damned moment' switch on the back of their heads...

It occurred to me and I work as a web developer. Just think of things in abstract enough terms and possibilities like this pop out. Having the technical sophistication and time to do the work is another matter.

Not really, we just happen to be in a specific region of "everything that can be" that exhibits these particular properties.

I suspect that this is all because the universe is mathematics. It is simply the expression of all possible things.
