I hope it pans out for machine learning.

I kept a dream journal every night for over a year. Meditated extensively during that time. And rarely looked at a screen. Prison gives you a lot of free time.

I've also explored the closes eye visual space in drug induced lucid states extensively.

This time article aligns with my understanding of Busdhisms Six consciousness model.

In Western language, we would call the eye consciousness the visual cortex. When our eyes are closed, and we're in a relaxed state, we can see muscle memory practicing. Dreams. Visions if in an awake lucid state.

The visual cortex stays active when our eyes are closed. Otherwise it only takes an hour for other senses to start recruiting those neurons.

My dreams tend to be emotionally charged. So, dreams are, in my experience, a combination of the visual cortex doing busy work and unresolved emotional stuff if it's there, or fun joyful stuff, if I'm feeling joy.

I don't know that it has a 'purpose' other than busy work and keeping the cortex wired together. It can be put to purpose, such as dream journaling and deeper self awareness.

What do you think the prison industrial complex is?

Since the bot removed the 69% that mattered.

It's like if you've ever been in a smoker's home, how tar builds up on walls and you can still smell it even if no one smoked in there for weeks.

Well, wildfire smoke produces gases that will stick to surfaces too. Overtime these particles release back into the air.

So, air purifiers are still good. They remove particles from the air. Bu you just to also wash down surfaces. Like in the smoker's home.

PET is one of the most worrying plastics because it's soft and sheds microplastic easily.

Also, microorganisms are fairly easy to adapt to other food sources because of how rapidly they evolve. Coupled with genetic modification I don't think it's impossible for this to be adapted to all forms of soft plastic.

And while this is good. It is also going to cause problems when bacteria starts eating plastic we don't want it too.

The best news I've read this morning and only two throwaway comments.

Anyway, this is an amazing use of an amazing technology. And will hopefully spare a lot of families from suffering through the pain of a cancer diagnosis.

Most wars are fought over property (land, resources, etc.)

A society that isn't based on property would have a lot less to fight about.

And most anarcho-comnunist style social structures are thought of as being post revolution. So it will be war to get there, but an economic war fought by workers against the oligarchs using solidarity and work stoppages as the weapons.

Solidarity, taken as a value, is another way to prevent war between the syndicates. Everyone would be workers and fighting against other workers would be socially unacceptable. Like dropping a fart in a crowded subway car, no one wants to be the one doing it.

I do expect there would still be conflict. Two syndicates may both want a rare resource. I imagine each syndicate would be able to elect a representative to some sort of larger democratic body. Like the UN, but without all the fucked up veto powers by nuclear armed states that prevents our actual UN from having any real power.

edit: Buddhism has existed for 2500 years as a loose connection of syndicates without serious infighting. Letting go of property and focusing on community goes a long long way.

To add to what the other poster said, take a look at anarcho-syndicalism

I see a huge class action in the near future.

I appreciated the well thought out response but your still painting the same tired picture. My sides right and yours wrong. Look at how you talk about the true whatabotism being a thing liberals do instead of it being a logical mistake all humans can make.

Both sides do it. When liberals bring it up it's because they're tired of Fox Entertainment distracting from very real crimes Trump committed. If Hunter is a criminal, lock him up too.

Anyway, you all keep enjoying your projections and circle jerks. I'm out for real this time because you're the first honest response I have had and frankly the rest of you are to caught in your own echo chamber to hear anything but GOP propaganda.

There's a difference between exposing hypocrisy and trying to change the subject to derail a conversation.

Trump can be a traitor and Hunter Biden a coke head, both of these things can be true. Bringing up Hunter's coke problem every fucking time Trump's crimes get mentioned is whataboutism.

It is a form of intellectual dishonesty, like a strawman. i.e. a logical fallacy.

That's a logical fallacy not a meaningless label. Do you know what a straw man argument is? Whataboutism is like that, it's a debate tactic people use in arguments. It's called a fallacy because it doesn't actually settle arguments but instead uses poor logic to make it appear that the person using it is winning.

To use one of the rights favorite whatabouts.

Trump is a traitor. Saying well what about Hunter Biden doesn't make Trump less of a traitor, but instead tries to derail the argument and make it about Hunter Biden.

Whataboutism
