The Rat and the Mouse

Once upon a time, there was a rat who lived in a big city. He had everything he could ever want: plenty of food, a warm place to sleep, and lots of friends. But one day, the rat got bored. He decided to leave the city and explore the countryside.

The rat traveled for many days until he came to a small village. He was tired and hungry, so he decided to look for food. He found a barn and snuck inside. The barn was full of hay and grain, and the rat was soon feasting.

As the rat was eating, he heard a noise. He turned around and saw a mouse. The mouse was small and scared, and the rat could tell that it was lost.

The rat felt sorry for the mouse, so he invited it to join him for dinner. The mouse was grateful, and the two of them quickly became friends.

The rat and the mouse spent the next few days exploring the countryside together. They had many adventures, and they learned a lot about each other.

One day, the rat and the mouse came to a river. The river was wide and fast-moving, and the rat knew that the mouse would not be able to cross it alone.

The rat decided to help the mouse across the river. He picked up the mouse in his mouth and swam across the river.

The mouse was so grateful to the rat for saving its life. The two of them continued to be friends for many years, and they always looked out for each other.

Moral of the story: True friends are always there for each other, no matter what.

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...

Where is AI (Artificial Intelligence) Going?

  How to view Artificial Intelligence (AI).  Imagine you go to the store to buy a TV, but all they have are 1950s models, black and white, circular screens, picture rolls, and picture imperfect, no remote. You’d say no thanks. Back in the day, they sold wildly. The TV was a must-have for everyone with $250 to spend* (about $3000 today). Compared to where AI is today, this is more or less where TVs were 70 years ago. In only a few decades AI will be advanced beyond comprehension, just like TVs today are from the 50s viewpoint. Just like we could not imagine where the video concept was going back then, we cannot really imagine where AI is going. Buckle up. But it will be spectacular.    *Back then minimum wage was $0.75/hr. Thus, a TV cost more than eight weeks' wages. ------------------------- 

Infinity of Theories

I do love the Stock Markets, all of them.   Why?   Because of the abundance of theories.    Every day, no matter how the market moves there are dozens of pundits offering forth their theory as to why it went down – or up, where it’s going tomorrow or next week, and why it must crash soon or maybe elevate another couple thousand more points.   Ok, this is fine.   But the next day these same folks may expound theories postulating the opposite.   This proves market pundits have no essential understanding of economics as related to the market.   This proves pundits prefer expedience to understanding.   I am constantly besieged by brokerage firms telling me if I would only invest a million, they would help me reach my goals.   If I had this information, how to make a lot of money, I would borrow every cent I could and apply it to making a bunch of money.   I’d not tell a soul. So, why are they trying to help me?   Well, ...
