sa_su_ke_75··on Ask HN: Smalltalk, Platonic idea world and Giordano Bruno memory techniques
the smalltalk image as a rappresentation of human mind. the objects as a rappresentation of idea in the human mind. and classes as classification and abstraction of this idea.

Giordano Bruno say that memory is the reflex of the universe.

like if symbols are a index of the real world, with sub index and sub-sub-index....

and more the symbols is abstracted then more is represented in mathematical and geometry forms.

in early history of smalltalk(http://gagne.homedns.org/~tgagne/contrib/EarlyHistoryST.html) i have found this:

Smalltalk’s design–and existence–is due to the insight that everything we can describe can be represented by the recursive composition of a single kind of behavioral building block that hides its combination of state and process inside itself and can be dealt with only through the exchange of messages. Philosophically, Smalltalk’s objects have much in common with the monads of Leibniz and the notions of 20th century physics and biology. Its way of making objects is quite Platonic in that some of them act as idealisations of concepts–Ideas–from which manifestations can be created. That the Ideas are themselves manifestations (of the Idea-Idea) and that the Idea-Idea is a-kind-of Manifestation-Idea–which is a-kind-of itself, so that the system is completely self-describing– would have been appreciated by Plato as an extremely practical joke [Plato].

Plotino in the Enneadi say that our life is a teatral rappresentations, and we (we as "souls") are actors that interpreting a role in the show of live. And we are worry for our role more that for our soul. the role is the mask and the soul is our reality.

and we create the simulations with the rules of the "real world" that we know. So we can study also the interactions of the rules that we know. But not what we don't know of out universe.

the dream is a simulation? we create also an "avatar" of us that is completely different from us like memory and personality. But when we wakeup we understand that was a dream, and also we can wakeup inside the dream (lucid dreaming)
sa_su_ke_75··on Simulation, Consciousness, Existence (1998)
we can speak also of continuosly consciousness? when we are unconscious, at the awakening whe have consciousness that we were unconscious: there is a part of us that is conscious also when we are unconscious otherwise we will not be conscoius of the unconsciousness.

we can speak of Qualia as attributes of consciousness?

consciousness can observe herself. the thought can't. the eyes can't observer himself. we should speak of autoconsciousness. the animal is consciousness but not autoconsciousness. the human can be autoconsciousness.

in the dream for oriental philosophy we create the connoisseur, the knowledge, and the known object. or in other terms the object experienced, the experimenter and the experience of the object known.
sa_su_ke_75··on The Road to CouchDB 2.0
Thanks. but i have listen also that there isn't no more need to make replication between a node and another node at level db by hand or automated. But is live if with the cluster i can see a big database replicated on all nodes

what are the new changes of 2.0 version?

also Pharo smalltalk is a wonderfull context for live immersive coding. Try to see this video with Roassal 2 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iXUZiFtnxK8

The jit must be rerunned every time the process is loaded. In image based language like smalltalk the jit state can be saved in the image with performance optimizations. So next time the image is reloaded the jit status is hot.

haxe have some incompatibility with syntax js. like don't support classic for and in if statement null must be explicited (you must do if (x==null)). but thanks to macros the porting of js generic more simple.
