As a fan of Ursula K. Le Guin, the central theme is one sorely missed. This has been a controversial critique in terms of karma (up and down so many times it has leveled out.) It’s a bit crass, though my reply was regarding the relevance in

What a horrific nonsensical rant that clearly misses the point of the story. Save yourself the eyesores, don’t click. The Omelas narrative challenges the psychological maxim that someone must suffer for the common gain. It is a short story,

This is not new. Potential resolves through constructive and destructive interference as state in the moment of now. State is not the building block of existential reality (as classical tautological theory insists), potential is. That “clou

Yep. 15+ years and counting. I’ll power up VSCodium from time to time to quickly flip through reams of pages of code, though I’m always annoyed at the faux vi features and end up doing real work in the terminal. I’m not sure I would be as c

Modernity sees state as the building block of reality. Quantum dynamics says it is POTENTIAL through constructive and destructive interference resolving into state in the moment of now (a continuously transitive and ephemeral moment.) Is it

Information is the reduction of uncertainty. If it does not reduce uncertainty it is not information. Intelligence is the mitigation of uncertainty. The revelation of the light is information. Navigating the contours of darkness is intellig

A thermostat is certainly intelligent. The definition of intelligent I give is “to mitigate uncertainty.” If it does not mitigate uncertainty, it is not intelligent. It is merely of constrained intelligence. Perhaps your expectations are to

Thought control is far more advanced than any modern layperson can grasp. Our minds are analog quantum tech and can be linked through entanglement. They’re not just mind fucking you, they are running a secret government of power in parallel

Both ULID and UUID v7 have a time code component which can be extracted. It would be best for indexing to store the actual value in binary, though not strictly necessary as these later UUID standards (unlike conventional UUIDs) use time cod
