As long as people like the author have their head in the sand about some stuff they dont like thinking about , actual scientific papers will continue to fuel conspiracy theories...
EG- nano bots in blood used as cameras https://www.nature.com/articles/srep09744#Sec9
Not sure why they put "geoengineering" in quotes either. Author should peruse the IEEE chapter for it. https://spectrum.ieee.org/tag/geoengineering
To me that is literally cultural fragility. To fail to depart from the purity of the past myth you cling to suggests you lack the resilience to embrace the totality of what actually was.
Not saying you dont have a point- not saying we toss it all or slander everyone as evil- im saying we reckon with the complexity - the grey space between 0 and 1 if we want to actually realize the founding fathers very noble ideals.
I dont think this article made a very good attempt at it , and i think the previous comments pointing out what was lacking in relation to other "good" articles was the sort of "yes and" im referring to.
Though since you have no interest in rhetorical purity i should probably take your advice and dismiss the comment entirely as not being "in good faith" , right coach? ;p
To pull from OPs url, evolution is true. This could suggest that true is not on one side of the "classical science is a blameless objective virgin" and "classical science is an evil villain" and is instead a third position that integrates the awareness of biological and social processes we are currently afforded and keeps pressing on...
" No but " vs " yes and "
Ive been toying with the idea of quantum mechanics in relation to scale free architecture... wanting to read this book on quantum chemistry and group theory and eventually think from the bottom up, but in a way that could perhaps keep the "entanglements" to the priorities set on higher levels of the semantic stack...
I might be a bit far out here but my goal is to eventually gather enough knowledgeable folks in a shared repository to at least begin a collection of discussions about what is desired. I started a github repo w a collective approach and the forum is open for app if youre interested in collaboration. The more of these "takes" that i can account for in designing a new lang the better, and as other commenters point out the disagreements that would arise in collective development i think thats where forks and merges can come in handy. Insteads of docs as code maybe more like code as docs? With atomicity and scalability? Am i just naive? Ill find out later. https://github.com/holarchyclub/discussions/discussions
Other topics coming to mind: Metacognition Category theory Set theory * if you don't find something or start your own map its definitely something i'd contribute to !
I guess most of the graduates of todays clinical programs are trained well in doublespeak and dont understand the seperation of church and state. But sure give me the "government appointed mindstate of the day" since its more "free" than the "opression" of religion...
Data says no easy single source of truth- must hide everything in submenus for true kafka maze
Obviously im failing to grapple with the content. However, it is time we look at race as a technology of control- and if the "above" class is taught sticks and stones while the "below" class is taught that words and silence are violence - are we not re-entrenching the same oppressive binaries? (Oh right i forgot what the point was)
Also like others said passive processing - chewing on an issue for 4 days and having the breakthrough in 20 minutes - if you only were paid for the 20 minutes it would be completely unsustainable, you would constantly grind and not recieve the rewards for that exponential (and humanly impossible) rise in productivity
Lets say you program a fuzzy logic controller that returns large=true for numbers > 100, and i program mine to return large = true for numbers > 10. Like you say, its subjective.
These rulesets are chosen as truth in the same way the grenwich meantime is 0* lat, and we dont use the paris meantime because we arent french revolutionaries and also the brits had stronger empire.
If i came off as joking its bc i am aware of the lunacy of my take. To call "normal" good is a strong position, but who was norm?? And why do we all have to measure up to him?
Social media platforms are giant algorithmic feedback engines creating the most reliable way for their regular users to fulfill their neuro-chemical and social needs. That these people cannot find better information in their mediasphere means that we need to encourage people and remind them of their agency - yes - but we cannot leave it at "words of encouragement" when the other end is "massive highly personalized feedback loop of all the people you miss seeing"
