  • Doolittle vs Dennett on Consciousness

    —“You know, P language reminds me of a direction I think Danial Dennett was going with how to study consciousness (Phenomenology), but P is more complete. It was in his book “consciousness explained”.”— Adam Jacob Robert Walker

    [Y]es, well we are all subject to the same information and converging on the same solution. And I’m just the one who put it all together first. Probably because I started with ai, programming and economics instead of philosophy and psychology. So as the neurological revolution unfolded over the past twenty years I had less of a paradigm shift than the other thinkers. And I don’t have pressure to publish. So I just kept working without anchoring myself.

    —“If Dennett built more on cog/sci and less on phenomenology. Dennett also made the mistake of using colour for uniformity of qualia as opposed to geometry (ancient Greeks). The qualia of geometry is uniform; the qualia of colour is not. *Uniform across human personal consciousness.”—Andrew M Gilmour

    Well done. very few people have that insight. Nice.

  • Sovereignty, Liberty, Freedom, Slavery

    [Y]ou are sovereign in fact or you are not. You have liberty or freedom by permission. If you must ask permission you are a slave.

    —“You’re going to have to define liberty and freedom very specifically on this one.”—Rik Storey

    HistoricallyFreedom > completed service as a slave (mesopotamia), no longer a slave (europe), or never having been a slave(europe), exempt from arbitrary control, granted special privileges. (meaning: it is possible for one to NOT be free). Liberty > permission to retain local law and custom, from liber, in european religions who looked after and freed slaves. Those are the original meanings Liberty by permission (group), Freedom by permission (self).

  • Operationalism is Hard.

    —“P’s Operationalism is a lot harder than math. Math is so clear because it’s trivial. P requires much more.”— Adam

    Well you’re the first person to fully understand that. This is why I’m getting sort of awed lately – something is happening because people are progressive much faster now. Well as for your observation, math can construct a degree of precision outside of human scales of perception at the very large and very small. But as we have seen in testimony, law, and economics, in human action, the operations available and the grammar to create fully formed, grammatically complete, fully disambiguated statements in P is a lot harder than it is in math. So I see: first-order-logic (categorical logic) > math( positional logic)) > computable logic (programming) > operational logic( p-testimony), as the hierarchy of logics today. And in retrospect all the logics make so much more sense now.

  • Operational logic is Demanding

    —“Operational logic requires demonstrated knowledge and everyone relies on their own available vocabulary. Which reveals something about the speaker, but is why it’s so hard for people without a whole lot of REAL knowledge or the precise means measurements to use (their vocabulary). But once it clicks…you can do it. Just a matter of differing speeds of success. It’s really hard for me. Takes me a while to produce.”— Adam

      It’s hard for everyone. But that’s why it’s such a good test.

    GRACEFUL FAILURE AND KINGS 😉 —“I Never would I have considered monarchy as a viable option then here comes Curt with his intellectual wizardry. Via negativa king with an armed populous to keep him in his lane should he go Caligula on us.”—Tyson Bay

    WE ARE GOING TO EDUCATE YOU it is easier to educate you than to excessively dumb it down.
