Everyone seeks an evolutionary strategy that increases their potential for the consumption of opportunities. They do not seek truth. Some of us seek truth because it increases our potential for the consumption of opportunities. The difference is that some opportunities are physical, some reproductive, some material, some experiential, and some intellectual, and intellectuals prefer accumulating knowledge (power) as their preferred asset. Thankfully it is cheap, but time consuming.
I don’t seek to convert. I seek to produce a product I can sell to people who want to increase their physical, reproductive, material, and experiential opportunities for acquisition. The intellectual reward is merely my compensation for producing that set of ideas. Hopefully a revolution comes from it. 😉

–“Technology is a way of organizing the universe, so that man doesn’t have to experience it.”– Max Frisch Let me correct the poet: *Technology is a means of controlling the universe so that man doesn’t have to be a victim of it.* The weak speak as the weak do: submission is everywhere.

Well, what we call consciousness: that continuous change in state between perception, search(perception-memory-prediction), focus, impulse, decision, and action – serves almost entirely as ‘the search for opportunities’ for acquisition of the host of things that are valuable to us. It’s not complicated. I am not sure why consciousness is so hard to understand. It’s not. Brains are not gears. Our various charges are affected by momentum, resistance and capacitance, and continuous iteration (echoes) create persistence of perception just as much as our eyes create persistence of vision. That’s consciousness.
