Wandering ponderings

I remember….

January 17th, 2010

I remember when I wanted to remember so I wrote it down.

I remember when I wanted a hard copy so I printed it and make a copy just in case.

I remember when I wanted a copy as a text file so I could read it anywhere.

I remember when I wanted it to be stored on my hard drive because I didn’t trust the cloud.

I remember.

(I’ll just keep updating this post to explain the backstory)

As usual the guilt caused me to pull the plug well in advance on the denouement.  Don’t try this at home - I am not a rolemodel!  If you don’t believe me first know this - I am coming down with a cold now (I am sure it is unrelated but somehow is the perfect icing on the cake).

Reality… the most straighforward simulation to reverse engineer in order to build better simulations within it.

Qualia comes first

Looking to explain qualia as an emergent property of the observed world begs the question.  Qualia is the indisputable element, the observed world is a useful, persistant abstraction.
