  • Ending the Woo Woo: The Cause of Dreams

    Dreams: the cortex never stops. Our brain’s more expensive in each state of excitement.When we are wakeful our experience provides input to model-building, prediction, and auto-association. Without external stimuli, hippocampal memory rehearsal (storage) creates auto association.

    Long term memory is produced by rehearsal within ~24hrs of the experience. This is why trauma drugs work if taken immediately after the event. During wakefulness we aren’t aware of the ‘distributor’ behavior of the thalamus. It stores novel episodes by auto-associative rehearsal.

    So just sensory suppression, leaving homeostatic monitoring, hippocampal episodic rehearsal, causes auto-association at lower levels of excitement, shorter information distance, lighter recursions, without ‘correction’ by external streams OR our attention.

    Advances in brain science in the past ten years alone have been as great as advances in genetics in the same period.The mystery is gone.The missing clue was that all fragments of perception are calculated by relative spatial position thus solving the big problem of consciousness.

    So that is why people like me or joscha bach are demonstrating the new model of thought that means an understanding of neural networks is as important to the soft sciences as math is to the hard sciences.

    LEFTIES: They never consider the fact that Trump is weaker in office than out. All Trump would have to do is leave office and say “Show up for War” and it’s over in days. Because that’s how followers see him.

    @phaz3 I do it. Every day. But then I think almost all humans are barely domesticated and hardly trained but overconfident animals, and “they” aren’t any different. You don’t ask a dog to stop rubbing its anus on the carpet. You punish it until it stops. Same difference. Once you stop treating people as equals it’s easy. 😉

  • A Booklist for Women

    For a female psyche, what sources would you recommend to learn—-in what order?

    1) For women the primary difficulties are (a) it has to be useful to you to maintain motivation. The explanatory power is empowering because it makes psychology very simple process of ‘what are you trying to get?” (b) Women have to overcome the true/not vs approval/not problem.

    2) So you have to add a step of self-reflection and analysis. Some women love it because it really is a superpower. Some don’t because the true/no vs approval/not dichotomy is impossible for them to overcome (lack of agency).

    3) after that the dummies guide really is just something you walk thru and practice. My opinion is that it’s a lot easier than it looks but I’d need to make ‘posters’ for that to work. There are a small number of fixed concepts. But using them together is overwhelming at first.

    4) I think for most people if you get reciprocity and property in toto you can get morality down. From there you learn verbal reciprocity (language) which is the epistemology. That’s the same Idea but more complex. Then you learn the grammars which is a simple table of ‘logics’.

    5) From there you learn disambiguation by serialization and operationalization. And from there we work through making complete sentences (transactions) in operational language. At that point you get it.

    6) Hmm… I never really thought about a reading list for women before.  The Male Brain and the Female Brain, both by Louann Brizendine. I might add “the Essential Difference“(male and female brains) by baron-cohen.  Most people need to read Economics in One Lesson. To appeal to the female interests Gary becker’s books A Treatise on the Family, or The Economics of Human Behavior.  Something by Elenor Ostrom (commons).   And maybe Jane Jacobs Economy of Cities and Schumacher’s Small is Beautiful. 

    7) That’s really what’s needed. That’s it.

  • The Chinese Are Doing It Right – If They Succeed.

    The Chinese advantage is that they DONT have democracy.

    They have an Ethnic homogeneity, territorial isolation, military and political autonomy, a professional and ethnocentric elite and bureaucracy.

    If cured of their overpopulation, they live in one of the most choice pieces of real estate in the world – vulnerable only due to their ‘unnecessary’ population. 

    We are all victims of our first institutions. The hindus to location, demographics and mysticism, the semites to demographics, location, and authoritarian religion, the chinese to geography, state formation, and the europeans to rule of law. Each has a benefit and a weakness.

    Prussia was the restoration of the european project after the dark ages. So note how desperately the french, English, Russians, and (americans) tried to destroy it. English rule of law hadn’t time to make it across Germany. Instead the French had a tantrum and destroyed Europe. (And the Jews and now Muslims are taking advantage of the opportunity.)

    If white male still ran european civ, and prussian order, and english government, we would do the same.

    But we can’t. Why? Women’s emotions and immigrant predation.

    My work is hard to understand – at first – because it’s a system for exposing ignorance, error, bias, deceit and fraud. But once you master it,all of human history makes common sense again. It’s just opaque or confusing because of all the lies – including those we tell ourselves.
