If you also gave all that text, with its audio, to the putative AI, it might have enough training material to learn to read your handwriting.

That's a good reply, although I can't conceive of "negative frequencies".

Well, if Horowitz and Hill aren't doing it for you I'm not sure what can help, short of trade or professional training. What kinds of things do you want to be able to fix?

It's time for me to prepare for internet outages with hard copies, not only of maps but all important reference material.

I must admit, that is indeed succinct. Now, all you need is to define your point of focus, and you're set!

Read heavy fiction. Try Jorge Luis Borges, or the Nobel winning J M Coetzee. Krishnamurti is worth a read.

Probably a good game for those who like numbers (me!). Can you realise the puzzle as a physical model?

I got "allergic" to computers but I still like algorithms and playing with mathematical/logical structures. I spent some time in the Australian outback with nothing but a pencil and a block of paper. I had heard of topology

I think it's a matter of convention, and that all the maths I can think of survives the following definitions: If infinity were to be defined as immeasurably large, and zero as immeasurably small, we would be saying infinity=(some fini

There's also a lot of waste aluminium, which might be usable in furnaces.

I really like the last one - " 22 The fastest way to get into a productive mindset is to feel a responsibility for living a life of service." I just think service is really cool.

It looks to me that rich celebrities have to spend vast amounts on security. They can't go to the beach; can't go to the supermarket; can't in fact do anything normal. Some very rich folk I know are discreet with their wealth

"If the fool would only persist in his folly, he would become wise" So said Solomon. In context, that means "Stick to one path until you discover its deficiencies."

Not long ago, it was discovered through mitochondrial DNA studies that all modern humans have a common female ancestor, who was dubbed "Eve". https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mitochondrial_Eve This science.org

Would we know already if water was coming up from the lunar depths?

Do you think that there might be hot springs on the Moon? Why not... our volcanoes on Earth bring water to the surface. That sounds like the kind of discovery that this mission is all about.

Find interesting things? HN helps. Otherwise, there are no fundamentally uninteresting things in the world and everything a person can study will add to the depth of their knowledge.

Anybody not a doctor who gives medical opinions online to anonymous questioners is probably not very good at thinking and can't be expected to give useful answers. Perhaps you could speak anonymously to a doctor or nurse practitioner b

Anywhere. Sorry, but people don't always understand and some die as a result. Maybe it should have been flagged for off-topic hopelessness.

It's sad that the article offers no hope; some people will read it and come away very sad. I would like to say that there is hope. I come from Hell, which is also called utter neglect. Intensive CBT 30 years ago did not help me, but I

Social media is about me feeling that what I say matters. Of course my opinion doesn't matter but that's beside the point. I can be brought to feel that my opinion matters. A worthwhile social activity is care for the needy. It

I guess we will have to implement the Universal Basic Income as you say, in the end. But there's no path for those whose jobs will be lost, and whose families will be at risk, in the meanwhile. It still looks like a lot of people will

Much of what you say is true, but that won't change people's lives right now, because of the needs of children and associated mortgages, etc. You point out that the need for change is upon us, but your essay on the need for change
