Scientifically, why am I me and not someone else?
>>16923093Just finish reading the image since it explicitly says why it said no in the last sentence.
>>16923378And yet you keep referring to yourself as an "I" and instead of pointing these unenlightened individuals in a more enlightened direction you show nothing but a need to signal that your particular ego is superior to them, almost as if you are yourself stuck in the infantile ego game that you criticize... Curious.
>>16923385That holds true in any case. Of course, as an automatic behaviour as well as a reflective pragmatic choice we have to accept our memories as being veridical. But there could still be a truth of the matter whether they are, i.e. whether or not we in fact *are* the same person/POV. And literally all of our behaviour relies on this in fact being true. People wouldn't care about avoiding injury or obtaining future reward if they didn't believe they were the same entity as the future person.
>>16920573>Scientifically, why am I me and not someone else?Just read Fichte's Wissenschaftslehre. It not only answers your question but explains how it is answered and why.
>>16923550>you keep referring to yourself as an "I"Yeah, but I know what I mean when I say it and I know what it doesn't mean. People who ask "why I am me?" have no concrete idea what they mean. They just repeat themselves when questioned about it.
Sorry, but when I watch Isaac Arthur or other Futurists, I'm not impressed. Futurism to me means looking at trends that are happening NOW and extrapolating them, not picking up thought experiments and assuming they are real things.There is nothing about humanity that exists right now that suggests we will build Dyson swarms, or huge flood continent-wide flood defenses and Von Neuman probes violate the 2nd law of thermodynamics.And yet, I see a lot of "scientists" talking about this shit like its actually worth worrying about. These people don't understand the concept of "opportunity costs". Yeah this shit physically possible, but who the fuck is going to spend their time doing it?
>>16923416Dont they know there are starving kids in Africa
>>16923424That it least is something that is happening now rather than fantasizing about whether Dyson Swarms will be able to finance another round of AI funding when we have never launched 1 satellite that orbits the Sun and beams down any energy, let alone useful energy.Maybe focus on getting one of these fucking things up first...
>>16923416It can be interesting when it's stuff that might happen in our lifetime. Further out than that I don't really care
I’ve been looking into the evidence for morphic resonance from Rupert sheldrake and people who agree with him and I’m pretty convinced.psychic staring effectmice learning cell cultures getting better at surviving and multiplying in toxic environments mice learning to solve mazes from their parents or mice separate from them etc>This is the key part. Using the same strain and setup, both the trained line and a parallel untrained control line showed progressive, marked improvements in learning speed over generations. Rats in Melbourne (and to some extent Edinburgh) started performing at levels comparable to the end of the Harvard series i.e., they began “where the Harvard rats left off” and continued improving. The improvement was not confined to descendants of trained parents, and statistical analysis showed that factors like general vigor/fertility explained only a small part (~16%) of the variance. The effect was across the breed, not just lineage-specific.I also worry morphic resonance or whatever this is is sort of difficult to prove because it won’t allow itself to be proved like when you start measuring and documenting it disappears but idk
>>16923225The schizo being the anti morphic resonance person right?
>>16923226Of course... That one morphic-resonance-denying schizo, everyone knows him. No idea what he's doing on a math and science board. Morphic resonance is settled science.
Reality isn't real, it's the interface consciousnesses use to interact and communicate with one another. You only go where you can exist because nothing else exists, reality can "reshape" itself constantly because it's not real, it's just what is consistent with the observations of all parties involved.
>>16923341this desu
>>16917545Thoughts about the mice, did they change the mazes? I mean even if the maze layout was the same, was it another maze that hadn't been contaminated with the smell of rats?

Two days ago, a new report saying that Artemis III was impossible to pull off, too risky, and a work of fiction was released. They said that the mission they've been planning for decades just wasn't feasible.So Isaacman (the guy that Elon Musk picked) came up with an alternative plan in 48 hours from scratch, now the idea is to launch 3 missions before Trump's term expires, in contrast with the just 1 of the previous plan, and land on the moon twice before december 2028.Thoughts? Is it a sensible plan? Do you think this new plan will be safer than the old one?
>>16923159because all the good rocks on earth have already been consumed but the moon is full of nutritious moon rocks for the robots to feed on
>>16921665Artemis III wasn't scrapped and it hasn't been delayed. it was already on track for 2028, a new mission to test out the landers in LEO was inserted between Artemis II and III, making III become IV. So missions in 26,27,28 instead of a large gap
>>16921665We never landed on the moon faggotArtemis 2 was supposed to be last month and its delayed till April
>>16923394https://www.nasa.gov/news-release/nasa-shares-progress-toward-early-artemis-moon-missions-with-crew/WRONG. Just another reason why nobody trusts shills.
>>16923394the mission roadmap and objectives are completely different chud. it's a new plan alltogether

The Biological Substrate Is Structurally Error.Every current vector operates on an error biological architecture.The foundation was optimized for small-group survival, short feedback loops, and low-complexity environments. It was not designed for recursive coordination at planetary scale.Compression: Prehistoric-Biological Hardware. The Reality is hyper-complexity - logic - non-emotional now.Local optimization prolongs the temporary existence of an expired species.It does not correct the architectural mismatch.You are building planetary machinery on a cognitive platform engineered for survival within a 150-member tribe.No vector escapes this dependency:Mathematics runs inside it.Algorithms are written by it.Comment too long.

The rules of time travel are rooted in quantum physics. Understanding these rules reveals much about the behavior of hyperdimensional beings and the reason for certain metaphysical laws. Timeline dynamics is essentially about temporal feedback loops between the present and its available range of probable futures. This is just realm dynamics https://montalk.net/matrix/112/realm-dynamics reinterpreted from the perspective of linear time, which affords additional insights as you will see. Although timeline dynamics sounds abstract, it has concrete applications pertaining to manifesting positive synchronicities, deflecting hyperdimensional manipulation, bending probability, and transcending matrix limitations.The Nature of Linear TimeA good place to start would be to recap the nature of time. Linear time is the constant flow of variable futures into a single immutable past. Every moment of choice involves multiple optional pathways into the future. Each path is a deterministic chain of effects cascading forward like dominoes toward the next moment of choice whereupon another branching takes place.

>>16922689Yes rewinding the whole macro universe like a VHS would nuke entropy and physics but the thread isn’t claiming movie style backward time travel. It’s self consistent feedback loops where the future locks the past without reversing the arrow. Higher dimensional view sees the map all at once and we just trace forward locally

>>16922633I don't get why everyone is over complexifying everything.There is only one universe that just... exist, from beginning to end.You can time travel as much as you want without creating paradoxes because if you did then the universe wouldn't exist.Free will exist, as in, you make choices but all choices are already made.Same for any quantum bullshit, it doesn't create a new universe every time a drunk particle decide to spin in a specific direction. It was always going to spin that way.
I was looking to see if there was any evidence to support my crank theory(it's really just a hypothesis) about the west-african ghost hominid shaping modern west-african and SSA cognition in a way that I doubt made them any smarter nor dumber, but was nevertheless eugenic/increased fitness, and ended up finding out that Neandrathal admixture correlates with skull and presumably brain shape. Has there been any studies into what impact Neandrathal and Denisovan admixture might have on behavior and intellect, IE: personality, mental illness, and IQ profile?
>>16923454
>>16923454I rose the hypothesis mentioned in my initial post after finding out that a shit ton of the alleles west-africans have for cognition and somewhat related things are private.
The potential of the west-african ghost hominid to be Homo Naledi or some other, already known species? Seeing how they're like, 6.5% of the modern west-african genome, I think it'd be pretty interesting to see what traits they might have grabbed from them. (I got the 6.5% figure by averaging confirmed ancestry across the different west-african groups that I know have been tested so far. Peaks at 7% and craters at 5.8%. Honestly a bit dissapointed it didn't meet the mean of the initial 2-19% estimate, would've been far more interesting...)Regarding that second-to-last part, a crank theory of mine is that they, whoever they were, may have greatly altered west-african verbal intellect in some way, which I only think by virtue of the EA PGS having literally zero ability to predict the reading ability of African-Americans, which I don't recall being anywhere near true for any non-SSA group.
>>16923027Actually, I'm not sure if any data exists for east-africans... The mixing was fairly recent so they could've dodged quite a bit of it, but I don't see them having none. Those in MENA should also have a tiny amount given their SSA ancestry, but I don't see Ghost DNA getting any farther from SSA than that.
>>16923033I just remembered Latin America exists and retract my previous statement about Ghost not making it farther than MENA.
>>16923027The pattern was seen among Chinese and fucking Mormons.This is the study where the famous 19% claim originates. It also included Han Chinese and Utah residents in their data set.https://www.science.org/doi/10.1126/sciadv.aax5097This "ghost DNA" is found basically everywhere. But the most significant portions are isolated to some populations of West Africa.
>>16923166Interesting. Most or at least some significant part of the mixing appears to be recent. It stretching that far back shows that it was definitely a slow, gradual process.
