How do you know that even though the future was like the past in the past, that the future will be like the past in the future? and what is your basis for knowing that?

>>16781690We can generalize this, actually:>when one is wrong, we must consider it acausally correct to claim they are wrong
>>16781690>You read Hume, accept that the problem of induction is unsolvable, and realize that it's OK to still make faulty predictions about the future and simply be humble enough to accept being wrong in the face of contrary evidence.But are you humble enough to accept that rejecting your whole enterprise of faulty predictions in favor of other frameworks can be a valid rational choice?
Consciousness is a result of physical phenomena, some atomic/subatomic particles in the brain produce it. It is a feature of the universe, of physics. We are inside one universe, one physics, therefore there is a single receiver of consciousness. Single actor that experiences it. But the experiences are separated because there is no memory shared between two people. We have separate brain and memory, that's why there is an illusion of many humans, people. But it is an illusion. When you have stomach ache, but then some other person has it too, the result is the same. You think your one (stomach ache) is more important or even that only you have consciousness, but in the universe there is only one consciousness receiver. We are just atoms formed in specific combinations and the brain allows to experience consciousness.This theory and phenomena extends to animals, including the ones that are eaten alive in the jungle or raised for meat in cages. It even extends to aliens on another planets, as long as they evolved similar mechanism. They could evolve different consciousness though, or no consciousness at all.It is not enough to avoid your own suffering, we have to avoid suffering of all living, conscious beings. All animals (including humans).If you make some harm to animal or human, it is the same as if you did that to yourself, you will feel this pain, just in another "dimension", another timeframe.In some way, there is a single "person" in the universe, the single receiver of consciousness, he is alone in the universe. Multiple, separate people and animals are just an illusion, delusion. They are illusion as a side effect of people's memory being separated into each brain and inaccessible by others.part 1https://singleconsciousness.neocities.org/
>>16787553>So a computational non organic machine can also experience consciousnessThat doesn't follow from this take. "Computation" is not a physical phenomenon.
>>16787553Yes, because suffering and consciousness do exist, even if universe runs on some computer.
ok
>Are brain atoms different from other atoms?Brain atoms are just atoms like all atoms. But they are set and connected in such way to experience consciousness. We need to study brain to find this out but it's not easy because dead people do not have consciousness anymore.
>>16784343>When rich and powerful people conspire against the poor, they conspire against themselves, they make suffering to their own, to the single consciousness receiver.if u want conspire too do what they do without them knowin itbest luckst
>Used in trades>Is found in natureIt is awesome, is it not?
>>16788181>>Used in tradesIn a contrived manner. Most tradies don't pay it any mind and the ones that do are only doing so because it's "muh golden ratio.">>Is found in natureNot really. There's a lot of variability in nature so you'll only find coincidental matches. The association people make between the golden ratio and spirals is just priming. There is absolutely no reason you should think "golden ratio" every time you see a logarithmic spiral in nature.See: pic related. Overlaying a golden spiral on a nautilus shell reveals how divergent the two spirals are. They have nothing to do with each other.
>>16788236that is really interesting, the ancient egyptians were obsessed with both the golden ratio and powers of 2i'll need to explore this link you've created in further detail
I found out that tiles in my bathroom wall are almost golden rectangles. Measured the side ratio with a tape measure. It was only 1% off from the golden ratio.
If you surround a circle with three equal sized circles and a straight line, the ratio between the radii of one of the big circles and the small circle randomly happens to be the golden ratio.
>>16789238>If you surround a circle with three equal sized circles and a straight line, the ratio between the radii of one of the big circles and the small circle randomly happens to be the golden ratio.What happens if you surround the 3 big circles with even bigger circles? :^)

What’s is the best book to learn calculus?
>>16783810You don’t need some fucking book get on ChatGPT and start asking questions and visualize each step on a 2d plane nigga
>>16786028This is terrible advice. The only thing you'll learn from ChatGPT is how to uncritically accept everything and AI gives you if it sounds confident enough.
Doing this right now. Picked up Calculus for Dummies and Calculus Made Easy. Follow along with the books, watch videos (Khan Academy and Organic Chemistry Tutor on YT are good), take notes, do as many practice problems as possible to make sure you understand the concepts thoroughly, then move onto the next concept. best of luck anon
>>16783810It really depends on the goal. If you're struggling in class, like can't solve the homework problems on your own, lost in the final exam's tricky questions, then I suggest to do more problems. Like a lot more problems. Get problem books. And popular textbooks that has solution manual on the internet. And do all of the problems. Compare to the solution. Identify what went wrong in your attempt. Rinse and repeat. If you self-study for fun, or reviewing, then just pick a thin book like Serge Lang's Short Calculus. Or quirkier books like Peter Lax's, Bressoud's, etc.

What do you do when you discover something new and/or interesting, which is not useful? I have discovered a method for finding Bipolar Binary Neural Networks which match arbitrary truth tables. I also always find the smallest such network. However, the size of the search space and the amount of compute needed means that for something small like an MNIST digit classifier, all the computers on earth could not find this classifier using my method, for a hundred trillion years.Do I publish it anyways hoping someone smarter than me could possibly make it practical somehow? Does it have any value despite the fact that it will almost certainly never have a practical application?What do you do with your useless research and how do you cope with the time you spent producing it instead of doing something else?
>>16787545Thank you for being nice. I will prepare the Python version for publication to /sci/ since /Sci/entists seem to like Python more than Java. It will take a couple days. If PDF posting is still allowed here, I will also publish a commentary on the code. If PDF posting is not allowed, I might put it inside a Maid Card and publish it here with that. If you want to run it you will need Python, Poetry, Verilog and Graphviz. This is because when it finds a network is uses Graphviz to draw it and emits and verifies HDL for it.
>>16786894> I will consider this, but publication feels malicious if the information is not useful.I would say to that you never know what will be useful. It's very hard to tell what kinds of research might be inspired by or related to your work. If even one person reads it and says "wow, that idea might help with X" then it's useful.

I haven't read in depth about your topic and I am not wholly familear with neural networks as I am a researcher in comp EM but your state space issue and "can find the smallest neural network" at first glance reminds me of undergrad naive approaches to solving NP problems where you just compute every possible solution and then iterate over all solutions to find the best one and if you are particularly naive you would classify this as a P time problem now. Considering what you have is mostly an optimization problem I would be cautious that you are not doing the same thing though obviously neural network sizing isn't remotely the same as set cover.For publishing post something on arxiv and send it around to any academics you know (or unsolicited email works too). Getting something on Arxiv proves your claim to an idea without having to actually submit to a conference if you are unsure of the novelty of the idea. As for usefulness most research isn't useful. The best you can hope for is to have some insight into a problem area or explain something about neural networks or machine learning. If you can do that it is 100% publication worthy. The barrier to publication really isn't that high.

Not really, that's popscience MW2 black science man stuff.Geomagnetic events like that can only affect long conductors in long power transmission lines and the only equipment that is conceivably at risk is substation transformers and other immediately adjacent equipment but even then mostly the immediately connected transformers and the circuit breakers associated. Same deal with even nuclear EMPs.A more realistic scenario is aliens forcibly coming to individually confiscate everyone's phones and inserting an anal blacked probe in every human on earth
>>16786966>A new study published Sept. 8th in the Astrophysical Journal Letters concludes that solar activity has reversed a decades-long weakening trend. Future solar cycles should be even more intense than the one we're in now (Solar Cycle 25). The findings confirm our own report in May predicting long-term increases in solar activity due to the Centennial Gleissberg Cycle. Stay tuned for more sunspots and fewer Starlinks.Are we cooked bros?

I bought something like this and forgot to refrigerate it after opening about 27ish hours ago. It looks and smells fine still but it says on the internet that after 2 hours like that it's in "muh hecken dangerino zone" what are the odds realistically speaking that i can eat this and be just fine because the gov recommendations are made with immunocompromised cretins and the lowest common denominator of people that would get a bacterial infection and die if somebody took a nasty enough fart in their vicinity?Somebody explain to me why you can buy moldy rotten cheese at the grocery store and be just fine but cheese dip that looks and smells great still which was only aged for like one day is forbidden cheese.

Is there any way to beat the enshitification of science?At the very highest levels science is probably okay. But at the mid and lower levels it seems to be under constant attack. Take this board for example. Endless nonsense is posted. Every thread is derailed by ignorant retards, schizos and Dunning-Kruger contrarians. There is hardly any good faith discussion. This enshitifiation extends to every public domain. Practically every internet site is full of grifters and idiots posting "science" videos and blogs which are just some ludicrous bullshit. You might say this doesn't matter because real scientists will ignore it, but I believe it does matter becasue it misinforms the wider general public and detracts people from the true essence of scientific principles. No wonder trust in science is so low.
