the coolest manifestation of quantum physics (not necessarily something i subscribe to but i float around) is its intersection with theology which is, of course, never discussed by astro-nerds. of course someone like lawrence krauss would dislike this
🤔
fyi i didnt know about his involvement in such things, i just googled it after assuming he would have something weird about him as a (unbeknownst to himself) vocal and aggressive proponent of Science(tm) as new religion

people trying to act like theres no intersection between politics and spirituality / theology when the entire basis for post 1900 leftist politics is historical materialism and dialectical materialism, i.e. following materialism through to its logical conclusions just lmao
we are finally going to transcend the left right paradigm. its a psyop. the bolsheviks supported certain national independence movements on the basis of peoplehood (finland) while stalin wrote a book "on the national question" denouncing the same viewpoint. the spectrum is fake
later the finnish bolsheviks wanted unification with russia. its all situational. spectral generalizations have almost 0 application to any real world situation. juche marxist leninist korea is basically nationalist although nationalism is supposed to be antithetical to the left

the whole men sending women money online phenomenon becomes even sadder when u get married + notice that it feels really good to buy your wife things, and that is the biological-noetic phenomenon being exploited when guys send half naked girls large sums of money on social media
dont really think the same mechanism exists w girlfriends so, i was previously unaware of the extent to which this is a thing. its pure caveman status, there is a rush in obtaining a coconut / leopard skin / shiny rock for the cave partner, that is exploited in above situation
im pretty frugal broke life so i can also testify that this exists with very small transactions. i can only imagine that the dopamine increases exponentially when large sums of money are involved. really tempted to drop the findom hashtag here but im gonna abstain.

Today's Applied Complexity Symposium begins with a panel on Computation and Complex Economies, feat. Rob Axtell, Joshua Epstein, @C4COMPUTATION, Blake LeBaron, John Miller, & @MelMitchell1

(Follow this thread for live coverage all day...)

#complexsystems #economics
4 Principles of Collective #Computation:

1 Ground truth (objective reality)
2 Effective ground truth (what we agree on, whether or not it is accurate)
3 #Information can be collectively encoded in #networks
4 Outputs are a product of collective dynamics

"I think #economics really needs to adopt a generative framework with agent-based models of cognitively plausible software people...[and] we don't choose to fear."

THREAD. In honor of the #Apollo50th anniversary of the moon landing, here is a thread of #physics posts related to space travel. @nasa @esaoperations @ESA_History
1/ I will start with my #physics #estimation - what would be like to ride a bike to the moon? How long would it take? How many sandwiches would you need to eat? More homework included.

2/ Video analysis of the lunar lander launching off the surface of the moon.

1. Thinking is a positive disposition. We always think about 'something.'
2. God IS (or exist) and anything that exists is from God.
3. Evil is trying to make real a thought that is positively disposed on which that is NOT (is not created by God or is not possible) 1n
4. Ezekiel 18: 17 Your heart was lifted up because of your beauty; you have corrupted your wisdom by reason of your brightness: I have cast you to the ground; I have laid you before kings, that they may see you.
5. Satan, a covering cherub, or an archangel, had his heart: 2n
a. lifted up for his beauty.
b. Both 'lifted up' and 'beauty' are preposition in heart.
c. Nothing can be exalted above God.
d. Nothing is more beautiful than God.

6. Satan's had his wisdom
a. corrupted on account of his brightness
b. 'Brightness' is a physical attribute 3n

Here's a perspective on satellite mega-constellations that nobody has mentioned. (We are ALL tired of this, but I think this is interesting).

The real reason SpaceX is putting up a mega-constellation at this time is because of the laws of nature. It was inevitable.../1
2/ Many metrics of information growth show exponential growth. Examples: Moore's law, computer speeds, agents on the internet of things, sensors. See review here: ourworldindata.org/technological-…
3/ Even before humans existed, we see evidence of exponential growth in information. Consider the sizes of genomes. This plot has a slope of 1 on a log-lot chart, so this is exponential growth in DNA complexity. phys.org/news/2013-04-l…

THREAD - How about a bunch of blog posts on #Space and #Astronomy? Yes, I have more than you can imagine - especially since these are really just #physics topics. Hold on - because this is going to be a bit large.
2/ Here is an answer to my fav astronomy question EVER - "What would the phases of the moon look like if the moon was a cube?" wired.com/2015/09/moon-c…
3/ The great thing about the cube moon question is that it really tests if students understand phases of the moon rather than just recalling factual stuff. Here is my python model of a cube and spherical moon
