Fake World, Fake Life

Whatever side you’re on you know the word “fake.” The current favorite is “fake news.” There is more. Fake cigarettes, fake education, fake medical procedures, fake IDs, fake money (crypto), fake luxury products, and fake drugs all take their rightful place in our lives.

The latest fake may already be here. That is fake, fake meat, which is fake meat blended with real meat. Advantages: reduces production costs, no regulations, easy to do, hard to detect. Disadvantage: dishonest (but who cares). The exposé of this might be called fake on fake news. 😊

Feeling bad for vegans and veggies everywhere.

More fakes now exposed.

US Presidential candidate Beto O’Rourke affects all your senses; his stupidity can be seen, smelled, heard, felt, and ugh, tasted.

He wears his stupidity like a bad after-shave. We have: a fake presidential run.

If Beto and Bill (de Blasio) ran together, their net support would decrease. Fake times two.

In politics many Presidents were called fake, but I prefer to call them genuine - idiots.

Human Simulation is Possible - by Humans

Human Simulation: Agent-Based Modeling and the Computational Case for Our Reality 1. Introduction In the essay, we introduce the notion that humanity could be a deliberate simulation based on an extremely simple single-celled organism, hardly anything more complex than that. This will allow an (apparently) new interpretation of the notion that humanity is simulated, but that there is no master engineer at a massive number of dials and switches, responsible for every twist and turn of our universe and lives. We begin with the notion that the universe exists and operates under its own laws. So, given the Earth [2] , when and where life first began, it was infused with a living agent, self-actualized, reproductive, and with other basic rules for its operations, interactions, and much of what single-celled organisms do today. The idea from this occurred some years back when writing code in ActionScript (formerly Flash), I was able to create...

The Calculus of Ideas and Patterns

Introduction. When dealing with ideas, patterns, intuition, and brainstorming, we need operations or rules not unlike those of arithmetic. The goal is not proof, a finished device, or a fait accompli , but rather a foundation for further investigation and study. In some cases, these operations may yield a proposition, that is, something capable of being proved. In this sense, they form a practical logic of intuition. The article concludes with a few select examples from a variety of venues. Setting. We are working with a given idea, problem, or project, or simply just thinking. Our aim is to discover pathways, patterns, or conceptual connections that may be useful. The following operations describe ways in which ideas and patterns can be generated, transformed, or refined. These also work toward understanding the imagination. Yet, this framework is distinguished from formal logic and proof. We are tempted to call them as “soft logic” because while nothing is proved, reasons...

Freedom of Speech

Think of freedom of speech as a living organism. Then think of what is required for it to survive. Coming to mind are a population agreeable to its constitution (its environment) and the institutions (its nutrients) that keep it healthy. Currently, many institutions, including some political parties, question unfettered freedom of speech and are working to deny it, claiming it is unhealthy for the body politic. Yes? No?
