In causation theory, the concepts of probabilistic cause, sufficient cause, and necessary cause are used to describe different types of causal relationships. Here’s a breakdown of each: ##### Comparing the Three: | Type | Key Feature | Example | |————————–|—————————————————————|———————————————-| | Probabilistic Cause | Increases the likelihood of an effect but does not guarantee it.| Smoking and lung cancer. | | Sufficient Cause | Guarantees the effect when present. | Fatal dose of poison and death. | | Necessary Cause | Required for the effect to occur but not sufficient alone. | Oxygen and human life. |

In other words, networks have properties encoded in their structure that limit or enhance their behavior.
Network Science Graph Teory Network Graph Node Vertex Link Edge
Concepts
Degree
A key property of each node is its degree, representing the number of links it has to other nodes.
UTF-8: L = 1/2 ∑ (from i=1 to N) kᵢ
English: The number of links in undirected graph is the sum of all degrees divided by 1/2. <–Rhymes :)
Where:
L: The total number of links (or edges) in the network. It represents the sum of all connections between nodes, divided by 2 to account for double-counting in undirected networks.
kᵢ: The degree of the i-th node in the network. The degree is the number of edges connected to a node. For example, if a node is connected to three other nodes, its degree is 3.
N: The total number of nodes (or vertices) in the network. It represents the total count of distinct points or objects in the network graph.
Average Degree
LaTeX: [ k = _{i=1}^{N} k_i = ]
UTF-8: ⟨k⟩ = (1/N) ∑ (from i=1 to N) kᵢ = (2L)/N
English: The ⟨average degree⟩ of an undirected graph is equivalent to the sum of all degrees divided by the total number of nodes. Which, is also equal to two times the number of links divided by the number of nodes.
Where: - ⟨k⟩ (average degree): The mean number of links (connections) per node in the network. - N: Total number of nodes in the network. - kᵢ: Degree of the (i)-th node (number of links connected to it). - L: Total number of links (or edges) in the network.

AI Coping
A non perfect metric that I’ve been thinking of is effort or cost involved with creation. Unfortunately the cost of anything digitizable is gonna go to zero.
I don’t believe AI should be regulated Even if it does turn the Internet into a bland hellscape. But I do think that governments should not be able to use any generative AI in any of their messaging. I think there should be a cost involved with messaging from the government to people.
But I also fear that as AI becomes completely indistinguishable there won’t be any way to tell.
Some sociological musings:
I imagine there’s going to be some subculture movements that romanticizes pre AI creations. And there will be artisans who emerge from industries completely automated by AI that will be considered luxuries and be purchased by those for either artistic appreciation or status.
There are already those out there that value how many hours it takes to complete art pieces/crafts and I wonder if that will become more relevant
Brand new content
Finally: my brother offered an interesting suggestion. At some point AI will be able to real time update either it’s data lake or context to include things that are happening near real time. He suggested that hyper novelty will be a mark of human creation. Where like if you see a meme remixed a couple times there’s a non zero chance that it AI has touched it. And meme cycles may increase even faster than they are to compensate.

Networks Everywhere
List three different real networks and state the nodes and links for each of them.
Obviously the shares and reposts on blue sky form a network where the nodes are the Users and the links are the shared article?
Memes And their spread can be modeled as a network where the nodes are the people or propagators of the meme and the links are between those who share or wear the meme goes.
You can have financial networks where nodes Our entities and the links are monetary interactions.
If I understand it properly diffusion is a type of network.
Neural networks are a network for the nodes are the neurons in the connections of the weights.
Your Interest
Tell us of the network you are personally most interested in. Address the following questions:
I think the network that I’m most interested in is belief networks or epistemological networks or meme networks. They seem like the hardest most intangible networks I can think of but also very powerful.
I’m also interested in emerging and complex systems in general.
I’m also interested in complex combinatoric self arranging systems that interact at multiple levels of abstraction and I’m wondering if you can model levels of abstraction with networks
What are its nodes and links? The Nodes are people or intelligent processing and the links are when it’s shared or learned.
How large is it? It is as large as the social network is
Can be mapped out?
I’m pretty sure these Ken.
Why do you care about it? I don’t know, the shoulders of people I’ve stood on have influenced me so I don’t **** know. Impact
In your view what would be the area where network science could have the biggest impact in the next decade? Explain your answer. I think network science will have a big impact on social predictions and it already has in coupled with data science. If network Science Can touch abstraction I think it would have a big back impact also I mean you could look at some of this stuff from category theory with network science and there’s also like combinatorial truths that might be able to map out you know the connections of mathematics that would be pretty interesting. If network science can also start touching causality that would be extremely powerful which would allow you to get a glimpse into butterfly effect like scenarios

Everyone is doing the same thing
One of the things that really just blows my f** mind is that like everybody is just doing the same f** thing. Some people complain about people taking pictures of guns, some people take complain about people taking pictures of food. We all do the same f** thing we’re sharing whatever interests That we have in order to feel something or signal or communicate or reach out.
Every single person (That buys into the modern economic system) goes to a store and buys clothes. But if you go to the wrong store and you buy the clothes that someone else doesn’t like you’re an other(It seems to me humans very very very do not like out of distribution examples.). But we go we all go and pay money for s***. Every single one of us.
There are people who grow their own food, for the rest of us we all go to a f** store and buy food. With the money that we traded in our time and labor or skills for to buy food. But if you buy different food, Or you don’t buy the right food or you buy food that someone thinks is gross you’re doing something quote Unquote wrong? Vegans think people who buy meat are morally wrong. Some people who eat meat think vegans are stupid because they don’t or are morally objecting it. Both people are going to a location to purchase or obtain food. The composition of the food is different, but the money that you spent to buy the food is the same. (Personally I don’t think there’s a moral argument to be made with veganism because it seems plants can feel pain and ultimately you are consuming life to sustain yourself. Really I guess the question is is what level of intelligence are we willing to sacrifice to gain sustenance. I believe Modern Society has already answered that question.)
It’s infuriating because people are just complaining that you have spent their money or time in a way that they wouldn’t spend money/time. And the modern economic system nigh no one doesnt’t use some form of money.
Some mother fuckers like to talk about how they’ve done something completely themselves. And oftentimes this point is championed on a social media platform built by someone else,On a phone built by hundreds of someone else’s,Bought with money earned from a company where even more someone else’s bought that product, With the denomination created printed governed and standardized by institutions etc etc.
The Gist is is even if you have billions of dollars you can’t do anything yourself. No matter how much money you spend no matter how many things you buy; You don’t take the money put it into a machine and transform it into something else. Every single human hand that touched even a single part of a piece of whatever it is you touch contributed. So I really don’t think it’s fair to really say any of us are completely self made.
This is what we all do. At least in America in the in the current year 2024 this is the reality.
Look I understand things get much more complicated and you can’t encompass everything in a couple paragraphs. But the bottom line is is everyone in America is doing the same thing the same way with the same dollar. The only thing changing is the narratives and motivations.

Impermanence
“All compounded things are impermanent” - Dzongsar Khyentse My limited understanding of physics and chemistry is that all Combination of atoms,Given enough time, will eventually rust, decompose, decay, unravel, do any number of entropic verbs.
But it also reminds me of the impermanence of state. The state that I am right now will not be the state that I am in at any number of moments later. I’m not a trained physicist but if we can assume that time is always happening, then you can’t be in the same state any longer than the smallest subsection of time allows.
Even if we decide to look at a moment as the smallest subsection of conscious able experience, Even within this span the moment can change. This isn’t really evidence with my argument, only a musing.
Currently my mental image Of the universe is of propagated combinations through time since Reality’s inception. And to me all things in the universe are just multiplicatively combined to become compound elements et cetera tables chairs blah blah blah. I like to view all of these multiplicative combinations as physical signals propagating through a medium of spacetime With any number of edges that “arrow” From one combination to the next or from one state of that to the next.

What exactly are you trying to tell me by sharing this information? What kind of conclusion do you expect me to reach from only this information? If I were to read any information that were contrary to this or might offer a different perspective, What conclusion are you expecting me to reach?
How does this information make you feel? What emotions do you experience when you read or hear this? Why are you compelled to share it? Why is the burden on me to “proove” Any kind of conclusion or opinion that I have on reading this news from my perspective? If I supply an opinion that is different to yours, what is going to be your next response?
If I reached a different conclusion based off my own internal state, the information that I have consumed, Or the ideas that I have, What will be your response?

If this is a politically charged Piece of information, What are the responses from me that you would find acceptable? What are the responses from me that you would find unacceptable?
I have no political affiliation I am not interested in choosing a political side, I am interested in the inner workings of conversation and why people tell me this things they do.
Deontological ethics
Deontological ethics, also known as duty-based ethics, is a moral philosophy that judges the morality of an action based on whether it adheres to a set of rules and principles, rather than the consequences of the action:
Focus
**Deontology** focuses on what people do, not the consequences of their actions.
Rules Deontology is a rule-based ethic, and actions are considered good or bad based on a clear set of rules. Duty Deontology emphasizes the relationship between duty and the morality of human actions. Examples The Ten Commandments and the Universal Declaration of Human Rights are examples of deontology. Origin The word “deontological” comes from the Greek words deon, which means “duty”, and logos, which means “science”. Association Deontology is most closely associated with German philosopher Immanuel Kant.
Deontology is sometimes called “non-consequentialist” because you can’t justify an action by showing that it produced good consequences. For example, in deontology, it’s wrong to shoot someone to kill intentionally, but it might be ethical to kill an intruder to protect your family.

This to me sounds like a standalone complex where the meme has become the propagator itself.
Standalone Complex Compared to Stochastic Social Phenomena (GPT o)
The Standalone Complex from Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex offers a prescient exploration of how uncoordinated individual actions can collectively create the illusion of a unified, organized effort. In the series, symbols like the Laughing Man become catalysts for decentralized imitation, leading society to perceive a vast conspiracy where none exists. This concept mirrors modern real-world phenomena, such as viral trends, decentralized movements, and even stochastic terrorism, where lone actors inspired by shared narratives or ideologies act independently but produce outcomes that resemble coordinated campaigns.
What Ghost in the Shell gets strikingly right is the role of connectivity in amplifying emergent behaviors. Much like today’s internet and social media platforms, the series portrays how shared symbols and ideas can spread across society, inspiring independent actions tied together by a common thread. However, it underplays some critical nuances of real-world stochastic phenomena. For example, algorithms and feedback loops on platforms like YouTube or Facebook actively shape and accelerate these patterns, making them less random than they appear. Additionally, while the show emphasizes symbolic resonance, it overlooks how material conditions—like economic inequality or political polarization—often drive these actions. Despite these gaps, the Standalone Complex remains an insightful metaphor for understanding how decentralized actions shape society in the age of hyperconnectivity, offering a lens to examine everything from meme culture to emergent social movements. ### wordplay This is exactly like crack cocaine sold from a my little pony fan; I don’t buy it. ## 11/21/2024 Option to share your own algorithm settings with someone else.

In animal behaviour there are a variety of definitions of a signal, but essentially a signal is anything evolved to change the behaviour of the receiver1. Signals can be an action, like waving your arm, or chemical, like the pheromones an ant leaves for others to follow. They can also be verbal, like the mating call of a bird. Or they can be a colour or design of body morphology, like our peacock’s tail, or in humans, height or facial symmetry.

You said: Is the narrative That I make up in my head an actual reflection of reality? Let’s ask chat GPT. ChatGPT said: ChatGPT The narrative you construct in your head is shaped by your perceptions, experiences, emotions, and biases, but it isn’t always an accurate reflection of reality. It often serves as an interpretation of events, colored by your inner world. While parts of it may align with objective reality, other parts might be distorted or incomplete.
To evaluate how closely your narrative matches reality, you can:
Seek External Perspectives: Talking to others involved in the situation can provide alternative viewpoints and clarify misunderstandings. Check for Cognitive Biases: Be mindful of tendencies like confirmation bias (favoring information that supports your belief) or catastrophizing (expecting the worst outcome). Focus on Evidence: Reflect on what you actually know versus what you assume or infer. Practice Mindfulness: This helps separate facts from emotional interpretations. It’s natural to construct narratives, but questioning them and seeking objectivity can help align your inner story with reality.
You said: Would it be accurate to say that like I Think I have perceived real information from a system or social interaction or “place” (Where place is defined as a location where multiple individuals with social and emotional goals gather and interact), And For whatever reason I have experiences and interactions with individuals in these places which forms a knowledge base in my head which is filtered through my biases and gives me a “map”, Or some perceived representation of a shared context. ChatGPT said: ChatGPT Yes, that’s an accurate and insightful way to describe the process! You’re effectively outlining the creation of a “mental map” or “schema” of shared contexts based on your interactions and experiences. Here’s how this works in the framework you’re describing:
Perception of Information:
You interact with systems, places, or individuals, and through these interactions, you gather information. This includes verbal communication, non-verbal cues, contextual signals, and patterns of behavior. Experiences and Knowledge Formation:
Over time, repeated interactions contribute to a growing “knowledge base” in your mind. This base is formed through learning, observing, and inferring from others’ actions, emotions, and goals. Filtering Through Biases:
The information you gather is interpreted through your cognitive and emotional filters. Biases (like assumptions, past experiences, and emotions) shape how you perceive and prioritize this information. These biases act like lenses that can sharpen or distort parts of the “map.” Building a Mental Representation (“Map”):
The filtered information creates a perceived “map” of the shared context. This map is a simplified mental model of the social, emotional, and structural dynamics of the place or system you’re interacting with. Shared Context Representation:
The “map” isn’t necessarily an objective reflection of reality but rather your best approximation of a shared context. It allows you to navigate social spaces, predict behaviors, and make decisions, even though it might differ from others’ maps due to individual experiences and biases. Your framing emphasizes the dynamic, subjective nature of social cognition and the interplay between perception, experience, and bias. Recognizing that your map is a representation—and not the territory itself—can help you remain open to feedback, alternate perspectives, and adjustments to your understanding of the shared context.

A-E-I-O-U.
It’s how The Economist structures (or used to) its articles, which were excellent examples of argumentative writing.
First, you pick a working headline, which summarizes what your entire thesis is about in 7 words or less (this won’t be the final headline, probably, just a placeholder to keep you focused). (“Convenience comes at a cost.”)
A: Attack. A pithy one-liner which sets out whatever argument you are trying to make (“Modern conveniences may be convenient, but they make us feebler both mentally and physically.”)
E: Explanation. A 1- or 2-paragraph expansion of your Attack (“Nobody, it seems, is capable of opening a train door for themselves, mowing a lawn without engine power, or even switching changing the channel on their TV without electronic help.”)
I: Intestines. The guts of the article or thesis, taking up 80% of its length. Here is where you lay out the facts for an against what you arguing (“Automatic train doors are undoubtedly better for efficiency, but have downsides such as complexity, extra energy use, and even authoritarian access control.”). Add in data, expert opinion, government policy, anything relevant.
O: Observations. A few paragraphs offering various interesting perspectives on the argument, how the argument might change, and so on. (“Another thing to bear in mind is that adoption of a convenience is a one-way ratchet - once introduced, they can never be withdrawn. Would most passengers now feel safe travelling on a train where the doors are not electrically locked?”)
U: Upshot: A single sentence, counterpart to the Attack, where you wrap the entire argument up with a pithy one-liner. (“When pushing the latest convenience upon us, whether we like it or not, there always seems to be what we might call a convenient excuse.”)

Bhaskar ### notes wordsmithing If you think you’ve thought of it all you haven’t thought of anything yet. ### speechcraft ### Dialectics The idea that two things can be true at the same time I guess? #### Dry Begging: 1. A - Awareness: Recognize their patterns. Stay aware of manipulation and stay mindful and detached to protect your own well-being.
B - Boundaries: Set firm psychological, physical, and emotional boundaries. Practice observing, not absorbing their behavior, and differentiate between caring about and caring for them.
A - Ask: Directly ask if they’re requesting help. If they’re not clear, keep asking until they are. This clarifies their intentions and reinforces that offering help is your choice, not theirs.
Dry begging is a subtle form of manipulation and coercion sometimes employed by narcissistic people to get them what they want, while making it seem like it’s your idea.
Rather than just making a request it works by exploiting social cues and emotional signals. It usually involves dropping hints or making emotional demonstrations aimed at creating a sense of obligation in others. Narcissists try to create a situation where the other person feels compelled to offer assistance or resources.

Reflect and diminish
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JpnGKVGbLqQ Reflect the emotion and agreeance but deescalate it. ### legislation I think all politicians and maybe even possibly any state worker who uses any kind of communication to the public should be banned from using all generative ai for any communication with the public.
I use generative AI every single day. It is literally a prosthetic for me. Through work and education I obtained RSI symptoms which stopped me from coding or even enjoying anything on the computer. This led me to quitting careers, quitting education, not being able to communicate with friends and family.
Generative AI is an incredibly useful tool And can do amazing things.
But I don’t believe that our officials should be using this for any kind of communication going forward. If we can be guaranteed by legislation that our officials aren’t using this on us Then we know with some certainty that we are not being sold false or manipulated narratives.
The very barrier to generating these stories, images, media being effectively free means that at any time It is costless to say anything to the public.
We already know that Fast and cheap information has affected the way that media communicates with us. Publications And information distribution institutions already race to be the first to tell us anything. And while I still believe That integrative journalism is possible in the United States, those institutions feel the pressure of this speed.
This incentive is powerful.
Media has gotten better at offering corrections and keeping their articles updated to be as truthful as possible.
However, us humans have a bias to believe the very first thing we see. And even Ernest Corrections or change of information oftentimes does not change our minds from our first impressions.
We all have relatives, friends, and have seen scenes of artificially generated content being taken at face value. Right now it’s mostly harmless cats, birds, holiday pictures.
And we already know that a Single image not even from a state of the art model can affect our economic system. A couple years ago a picture was generated of the Pentagon on fire which led to the stock market dropping by nonsignificant value.
I love artificial intelligence, I love computers I love technology. And I love America and New Hampshire. And I also believe that us Americans are smart enough to determine what is real and what is not.
But I do not believe Than anyone with a vested interest to make someone else feel a certain way for any benefit, Can resist the cheap fast influential, powerful tools that make sending any message they want cost nothing.
We already have examples of services being abused when they cost nothing and that’s why we have email verification and phone number verification. Or if it’s a paid service you need a credit card to sign up with.
There are millions of Americans out there every day that feel They are not Being sold reality from the institutions that they rely on.
And I believe it’s a mistake to not legally compel Those who communicate with us To do so with their real voice and words.
The voices that speak for us need to be real.
So how do we stop AI generative misinformation being used by our representatives and officials?
We legally compel them to not be able to so that we can know with some certainty that a human is speaking to us

Description: "…Our teacher Thich Nhat Hanh talks about loneliness being a problem of our time and that technology only gives us the illusion of being connected with others. Loneliness can be ended by coming home to ourselves, finding self acceptance as we are, before establishing connection with others.
…"
The idea behind this image is that one needs to come back home to oneself. Which means getting in touch with themselves and being mindful of like their being. And then you can help other people get to theirs, And then you can create a shared connection a shared home. And with that you can approach other groups and people. It just strikes me as kind of a Categorical image.
Partners and other people will try to look for home in other people when they cannot find it in themselves. Personally to me this feels consuming when it is done to me.

Survival Math:
An average 5’9" male doing light things roughly burns 100 calories an awake hour. There are 3200 calories in a pound of fat. (For easy math let’s just assume that you do so as sleeping as well.) So that means you get 24 + 10 hours of backup fuel per pound of fat. I think if I were like 134 I would be zero percent body fat which would just be awful. It would cut into my muscles. Right now I’m 140.8. 1-(134/140.8)≈ 0.05 or 5% Body fat.
Just make an estimation like I did and then take the difference and that’s how many pounds of fat you have. Then multiply that by 3200 to get your calories. Now just guesstimate you know what you have to do in how many calories you might burn so you can decide how long you can go. There’s a table below that shows Activities in their usage.
And we’ll also go over some quick optimization stuff you can do on the back of the envelope to maximize your energy for a specific tasks.
Some of this might seem pedantic but If you and a couple people are stranded and you have a limited calorie limit; The people need to be used effectively because things they’re good at they use less calories at maximizing your chance to survive.

anxiety
Awareness
Where does anxiety show up in my body?
It mainly manifests in my legs were my hamstrings are.
I also tend to tighten my shoulders and scrunch my face and be generally tense
How does anxiety show up as thoughts?
Well it’s when you worry about a future event that you don’t want to go wrong. When you have this image or idea in your head it’s negative fantasizing ### Letting go of judgments Be curious in describing anxiety instead of judging it.
Honor the function of anxiety.

When someone says something that you already know, instead of ducking the energy act as if you’ve never heard about it and ask a question so you can get more DIFFERENT information. If after the next thing you say, you’re prolocutor Interlocutor(Conversation partner) says something that you already know or that you completely expected;
That is the user’s(player’s(your)) fault.
Look at it like Groundhog Day, or the same level of a video game. Kind of like it’s run by an LLM. You are the player, and you’re playing Oblivion. Except it’s completely open-ended. Just like you can talk with an LLM you can talk with the human.
However, humans have emotions and feelings and also the capability of voilition. Personally, I think I should respect that, and not do anything to them which I don’t want done to me.
This is also not to say that humans are simply LLM’s. Humans are NOT LLM’s. I do not think humans are language models.
I think there might be insight into everyday conversation(using language) that can be gained by treating LLM’s as what they are: Models.
And as with any other model, you can make some educated guesses about about the territory if you feel the model(map) is a sufficiently accurate representation of reality. Which that is something you have to also figure out;for yourself. Fortunately LLMs are statistical models and they’re based off of real world phenomena(language data) so I think there’s something of whatever the real world might be in there.
Well that is this Halloween’s cracked ass post.

It seems all people really want is someone to listen to the dumb shit that goes in their head.
I want to be different.
If you can just keep rolling with whatever narrative they’re trying to spin, conversations usually will go smoothly. And if you really want to make them felt heard, you can use the active listening principles.
Unfortunately because this stuff is rare, people like you more.
And if you really really want to make them feel heard, and as a byproduct to like you, you can take interest in either the things that they’re speaking about, or themselves.
I think everybody is dying to relate their experience because deep down inside they feel alone.
I want to mindfully enjoy the mundanities of life but I don’t often like talking about them.
My writing probably sounds like a pretentious douchebag.
I don’t really like sharing my internal thoughts.

quotes
https://old.reddit.com/user/Savoodoo As per 1984:
The Party told you to reject the evidence of your eyes and ears. It was their final, most essential command.
Also from 1984 and terrifyingly accurate:
Who controls the past controls the future. Who controls the present controls the past.
War is peace. Freedom is slavery. Ignorance is strength.
The best books… are those that tell you what you know already.
Talking to her, he realized how easy it was to present an appearance of orthodoxy while having no grasp whatever of what orthodoxy meant. In a way, the world-view of the Party imposed itself most successfully on people incapable of understanding it. They could be made to accept the most flagrant violations of reality, because they never fully grasped the enormity of what was demanded of them, and were not sufficiently interested in public events to notice what was happening. By lack of understanding they remained sane. They simply swallowed everything, and what they swallowed did them no harm, because it left no residue behind, just as a grain of corn will pass undigested through the body of a bird.

- I really want a partner.

Portsmouth High School hosts students from Nichinan school in Japan - 2024-10-19
https://www.seacoastonline.com/story/news/local/2024/10/19/portsmouth-high-school-hosts-students-nichinan-japan/75705820007/
PORTSMOUTH — Portsmouth High School recently welcomed 17 Japanese students, two teachers and the principal of Nichinan Gakuen Jr-Sr High School. The students from Portsmouth’s sister school are staying with PHS students and their families and attending classes at Portsmouth High. They were welcomed enthusiastically at an all-school assembly of 800-plus students where their host students presented each with a gift.
Nichinan and Portsmouth became sister cities in 1985, on the 80th anniversary of the signing of the Portsmouth Peace Treaty. Baron Jutaro Komura, the lead Japanese diplomat to the peace conference, was born in Nichinan and is the reason for the connection.

I have a somewhat invisible illness that causes chronic energy problems and muscle problems etc. On the outside it doesn’t look like anything is wrong. I look like any decently in shape 35 year old. This makes random interactions feel impossible because I can’t explain to every single person that tries to show interest in me “by the way I’m crippled But it doesn’t look like it and no I’m not attention seeking etc etc etc.”. It causes a huge amount of anxiety and it basically makes me shut down in public when anybody shows interest in me. Read makes dating impossible. I’m able to work but I don’t really make a lot of money. And I am getting better but there is no “fixing” it.

“Empathy” is key in collective intelligence. Where I define empathy as the ability to mimic the inner state, whether voluntarily or involuntarily, of another member of the same category.
Healthy gamer says that it’s a complex that men have where they empathize with other people and try to help them fix their problems because it makes them feel uncomfortable and I think I can identify with this in some degree.
LAMO and according to him I’m actually fixing it by doing nothing because I’m actively absorbing some of their damage into me. You have to be a masochist to want to be kind.
Four things you need to do to be emotionally available:
- Understand the associations That are giving you problems with emotional intimacy and be able to discuss them.
- Disregulated emotions tend to lead to disrespect. Use the 10 to 25% strength of the emotion.
- Have emotionally salient conversations
- Talk about how you felt
- what you You were afraid of
- Hold the emotional space (Tank the damage!)

the quiet art of attention
https://billwear.github.io/art-of-attention.html
the quiet art of attention
There comes a moment in life, often in the quietest of hours, when one realizes that the world will continue on its wayward course, indifferent to our desires or frustrations. And it is then, perhaps, that a subtle truth begins to emerge: the only thing we truly possess, the only thing we might, with enough care, exert some mastery over, is our mind. It is not a realization of resignation, but rather of liberation. For if the mind can be ordered, if it can be made still in the midst of this restless life, then we have already discovered the key to a deeper kind of freedom.
But how does one begin? It is not with grand declarations or bold, sweeping changes. That would miss the point entirely. Rather, it is with a gentle attention to the present, a deliberate shift in the way we move through the world. We begin by paying attention to what our mind does—its wanderings, its anxieties, its compulsions. It is a garden untended, overgrown with concerns that may not even be our own. And the first step is simply to watch, to observe how the mind moves, without judgment, without rush.
In this quiet observation, we begin to see patterns. The mind leaps from one thing to another, rarely resting. It is caught in a web of habits, most of which we never consciously chose. But, once we notice this, a door opens. There is space, however small, between the thoughts. And in that space, if we are patient, we can decide how to respond rather than being dragged along by every impulse or fear. This is not about control in the traditional sense, but about clarity. To act, not from reflex, but from intent.
It is a simple beginning, but one of great consequence. For when we reclaim our attention, even in this small way, we are no longer mere passengers on the journey. We become, in a sense, our own guides.
As we grow in this practice of attention, something else becomes clear: much of what occupies our thoughts is unnecessary. The mind is cluttered, filled with concerns that seem urgent but, on closer inspection, do little to serve our deeper well-being. Simplification is not just a matter of decluttering our physical surroundings—it is a way of thinking, of living. As we quiet the noise within, we see more clearly what truly matters. We focus, not on everything, but on the essentials. We pare down, not by force, but by choice.
This process of simplification is not an escape from complexity. It is, in fact, a way of engaging with it more meaningfully. There are things in life that are intricate, yes, but not everything needs our attention at once. What truly requires our effort can be approached in small steps, in manageable pieces. The mind works best when it is focused on one thing at a time, when it is allowed to give itself fully to the task at hand. In this way, the most complex of undertakings becomes simple, not because it is easy, but because we have allowed it to unfold naturally, one step after the other.
It is tempting, in moments of ambition, to think that we must change everything all at once, that the path to mastery or peace requires a sudden, dramatic shift. But this is rarely the case. In truth, most lasting changes come from small, deliberate actions. It is in the repetition of these small actions, over time, that we build strength, that we build the habits of mind that lead to deeper clarity. Just as a mountain is climbed not in great leaps but in steady, measured steps, so too is the mind brought into alignment by daily, patient attention to the way we think.
But in this process, we must remember something important: life is not meant to be rushed through. It is not a race, nor is it a problem to be solved. It is an experience to be lived, and living well requires presence. To focus on one thing deeply, to give it your full attention, is to experience it fully. And when we do this, something remarkable happens. Time, which so often feels like it is slipping through our fingers, begins to slow. Moments become rich, textured. Even the simplest of tasks takes on a new significance when approached with care, with attention.
This is the quiet art of living well. It does not demand that we abandon the world, but that we engage with it more mindfully. It asks that we slow down, that we look more closely, that we listen more carefully. For in doing so, we discover that much of what we seek—clarity, peace, even strength—was always within reach. It was simply waiting for us to stop, to pay attention, and to begin again with intention.
The mind, like a garden, requires tending. It needs patience, a steady hand, and, above all, consistency. There will be days when it seems unruly, when old habits return, and when focus feels elusive. But these days, too, are part of the process. Each small effort, each moment of renewed attention, builds upon the last. Over time, these moments accumulate, and what was once difficult becomes second nature.
And so, the journey to mastery of the mind begins not with grand gestures but with the simplest of practices: the practice of paying attention. Attention to the present, attention to what truly matters, and attention to the quiet spaces in between. In this way, step by step, thought by thought, we move closer to that elusive state of clarity, of peace, and of freedom.

I am just waiting to speak to someone. if that doesn’t work there are other options.
I suggest that we, and anybody else who you might think needs to be there, Find a calm time to sit down with Max and explain calmly how he’s making us feel and the steps we’re willing to help him take. I’m sure we’re all willing to help if Max is willing to put the work in.

Notes
There are also times when everybody is too tired to work on a problem, and in those moments of recuperation, it’s the coach’s job to tell stories of legendary problems of the past and of the mathematicians who slew them. These stories often contain lessons, inspiration, or perspective on how mathematics evolved and got to be the way it is. Human history would look very different, after all, without the brachistochrone problem or the roots of a quintic polynomial problem or the icosahedron problem or the precession of Mercury’s perihelion problem. But other times there’s no hidden lesson, no grand perspective on the human story. They’re just ripping good yarns, and hearing them is a process of initiation into mathematical folklore, because every culture (and mathematics is surely a culture) has shared stories and references and inside jokes, even when they’re purely for fun.

With no hyperbole, my life is fucking dogshit.
I have physically been unable to do things normal, out of shape unhealthy ,assholes can do For almost a decade.
9 months ago I could not get out of bed for more than an hour. It took me almost two years in five plus stints to different physical therapists To barely even get where I am now. Now I’m able to stay out of bed for most of the day except I still can’t use my fucking hands.
I am able to do very extremely light Internet browsing. I look at things I can’t comment on them, I learn new; things I can’t write about them, I study math; I can’t write the fucking equations. I am able to use the app for door dash; I can’t come home and play a video game. I study Japanese; I can’t write the fucking kanji. I use my voice to text; I can’t use that for too long or I don’t have my voice for anything else. I can barely do two sets of any reps of any weight (3-8lbs) and if I work too much I have to lay down for multiple days.
No one wants to be around me because I fucking hate my life. No one understands.
My entire life all I wanted to do was program and play video games. Because I’m the dumbest slowest moronic learner on the fucking planet, It took me until around twenty four until I could actually code and that is exactly the time that I lost The use of my hands.
Every single skill I have ever learned,Every trade I have learned, Everything I went to college for Is absolutely useless because I cannot use my fucking hands.
I will never have a normal existence. I will never make enough money. I will always live in houses with people I don’t want to live with. I will always be useless. And even my family members like to let me know.
The worst part is is if I take my shirt off I look like a normal Dude in his thirties who takes care of himself. I have muscle definition, I have a low body fat percentage, I look like a dude who can run.
I’m sick of it.
I’m making one more big push, I’m gonna try and become a strong man and do feats of strength with my hands. ,Tear phone books, Crazy grip strength etc; if this doesn’t workout I’m done. I’m done trying. I’ll never get help, I’ll keep scraping by barely making enough for rent on door dash. Living with family that **** tortures me and continues to fucking with my mental health. I’m done. I got a couple more years and I’m fucking checking out. I have no friends, No social life, Nothing rewarding, Everything for the past 10 years has just been waiting, spending time So that the next day can come by. No use of my hands, No prospective future, And for more than half of it I couldn’t even use my fucking voice or get out of bed i’m so sick and tired of this. People say life is a gift, fuck you.
Now after dictating all this out With my voice I probably won’t speak the entire rest of the day so I don’t hurt myself. I absolutely love every little shitty piece of my fucking existence.
Honestly if you have no problems with your body and you complain about any problem in your life get fucked. You can get up and go do something. Me I can’t do anything, I have to wait, I can’t do it myself ’cause I might hurt myself and then I can’t go do my job and then I don’t have money and then and then and then.

Alright I already knew a bunch about functions still good to go over it really good perspective of it some comedy.
Basically what the intro is talking about is that limits are infinitesimally small amounts right?
And the integral or the integration of something right this is a bunch of these small amounts and you can look at that like a geometric series(Where some continuous function on the number line would be the continuous analog) summing to some amount and that’s the limit at which it converges. excluding of course non converging sequences right.
(And remember geometric series has rational numbers in it and rational numbers by definition contain gaps between them)
And what’s interesting is using this same definition you can actually define the derivative; As taking some input to a function, And taking the smallest piece of this input And put it into the function and then subtract the original input from this smallest piece and you get the derivative.
It is almost hilarious how easy it just falls out.

What is a function?
A generalized relationship between two entities #### limits
A derivative, the fundamental concept of differential calculus, is a limit. An integral, the fundamental concept of integral calculus, is a limit.
When we speak of the “sum” of an infinite series, this is just a short way of naming its limit.
An infinite series can converge on its limit in three different ways: 1. The partial sums get ever closer to the limit without actually reaching it, but they never go beyond the limit. 2. The partial sums reach the limit. 3. The partial sums go beyond the limit before they converge.
Summaries
Student: I was working on a problem involving a bouncing ball and geometric series, and I wanted to understand how the sum of an infinite geometric series relates to limits and derivatives. Here’s what I have so far:
I dropped a ball from a height of 8 feet. After each bounce, it reaches half the height of the previous bounce. I needed to find the total distance the ball travels, including the initial drop and all the bounces.
Teacher: That’s a great problem to explore! Let’s break it down step-by-step.
Student: To start, I expressed the problem using a geometric series. The initial height is 8 feet, and each successive bounce reaches half the previous height. So, the distances traveled after the first bounce form a geometric series:
[ 8 + 8 + 8 + ]
Teacher: Exactly. This is an infinite geometric series where the first term (a) is (8 ) and the common ratio (r) is (). To find the total distance traveled up, we sum this series.
Student: I multiplied the series by the common ratio to shift it and simplify the calculations. After multiplying by (), I got:
[ = 8 + 8 + 8 + ]
Subtracting this from the original series:
[ x - = 8 ]
Teacher: Correct. This simplification leads to:
[ = 8 x = 16 ]
Student: So the total distance traveled by the ball is 16 feet. I also worked on a problem where a ball was dropped from 4 units and each bounce was one-third of the previous bounce. I found the total distance traveled to be 6 units.
Teacher: Right, let’s confirm that. For this problem, the distance traveled up is an infinite geometric series with the first term ( ) and common ratio ( ):
[ = = 2 ]
So the total distance including the initial drop:

Student: How do these series and their sums relate to limits and derivatives?
Teacher: Good question. The sum of an infinite geometric series is found using limits. The formula ( ) comes from the limit of the partial sums as the number of terms goes to infinity.
For derivatives, while they don’t directly apply to geometric series, the concept of limits is fundamental to derivatives. The derivative measures the rate of change of a function, and finding it involves taking limits.
Student: Thanks for clarifying! I now see how limits underpin the calculations of series sums and derivatives.

At each instant the runner has gone in meters ten times the elapsed number of seconds. His instantaneous speed throughout the run clearly is ten meters per second.
the derivative of a function is simply another function that describes the rate at which a dependent variable changes with respect to the rate at which the independent variable changes.
defining a derivative as the limit of a sequence of ratios, this clearly is the case
Thus the deriva- tive of the area with respect to time is the limit of an infinite se- quence of ratios that converge on 6. Put simply, a derivative is the rate at which a function’s dependent variable grows with re- spect to the growth rate of the independent variable. In geo- metrical terms, it determines the exact slope of the tangent to a function’s curve at any specified point along the curve. This equivalence of the algebraic and geometrical definitions of a de- rivative is one of the most beautiful aspects of calculus.

The most important thing in the beginning though is activated being able to activate it at elevated intensity without pain or injury feels like a better goal than strengthening it haphazardly with potentially incorrect form with the weight you might not even be comfortable in a position you might not even be skilled in.

type theory
Types are not sets. Types are a bit like sets, but types give syntactic information, e.g.
3 + (7 ∗ 8)5 : nat
whereas sets give semantic information, e.g.
3 ∈ {n ∈ IN | ∀x, y, z ∈ IN+(xn + yn 6 = zn)}
Extensionality versus intensionality
Sets are extensional: Two sets are equal if
they contain the same elements. For example {n ∈ IN | ∃x, y, z ∈ IN+(xn + yn = zn)} = {0, 1, 2}. So set equality is undecidable
Types are intensional2. Two types are equal if
they have the same representation, something that can be verified by simple syntactic considerations. So, {n | ∃x, y, z : nat+(xn + yn 6 = zn)} 6 = {n | n = 0 ∨ n = 1 ∨ n = 2} because these two types don’t have the same representation. ##### summary of type theory vs set theory
We can therefore summarize the difference between set theory and type theory as the difference between proof checking (required to check a typing judgment), which is decidable and proof finding (which is required to check an element-of judgment) which is not decidable.

Use associativity and commutativity to prove add_right_comm. You don’t need induction. add_assoc moves brackets around, and add_comm moves variables around.
Remember that you can do more targetted rewrites by adding explicit variables as inputs to theorems. For example rw [add_comm b] will only do rewrites of the form b + ? = ? + b, and rw [add_comm b c] will only do rewrites of the form b + c = c + b.
You can use rw [zero_add] at h
to rewrite at h instead of at the goal.
Here’s a two-line proof:
repeat rw [zero_add] at h
exact h
apply h2 at h1

Your understanding is correct. "hodo" means "the extent of", so the whole construction means "走れば [if/when I run], 走るほど [to the extent I run,] 体力を尽かす [I exhaust my strength]". "When running, the more I run, [the more] I exhaust my strength", or simply "The more I run, the more I get tired".

Complexity of any written text is dependant on it’s total abstraction or it’s entropy. A sentence or paragraph with more root words than abstract ones has more entropy, and so the information is “spread out” among many simpler words. As we compress the words into more abstract ones, the entropy decreases, while the complexity increases. The increase in complexity can be attributed to the fact that we need to go higher up the tree to reach a root node, while the connections between each parent and child node must also be strengthened in order to develop a strong intuition of the piece of text.
And to me the leap between the abstract word and the root word is a composition learned based off of how much understanding is grokked, Where immediate jump to the root word is perfect grokking.

https://blog.depthsofrepair.com/p/spiraling-out-of-connection My friend reminded me that the last time we had hung out, she’d started telling me about struggles she was having with her dad. I hadn’t asked any followup questions – I just responded with “huh” and changed the subject. She told me how disconnected and alone that had made her feel, and that she really didn’t want that as part of our friendship, and imagined I didn’t either. She didn’t attack me, or even blame me – just stated what had happened, and the impact it had on her. I could’ve very easily gotten defensive, or tried to make excuses – but instead I felt a surprising surge of gratitude. Here was a friend making a vulnerable effort to deepen our friendship, and giving me a concrete thing I could do differently to make her feel more seen, and us more connected. ## communication あなたというの言葉は I would prefer to use the first person pronouns in the same way as in almost never.

If A < B, then A * C < B * C if C > 0, and A * C > B * C if C < 0.

Your attitude is visible to everyone,Unless you’ve got some acting skills it’s not something you can impress, Just really live it true that’s the only advice i’ll provide, When you envision future decision ou Influence yourself on events that have not yet arrived, Just think if you didn’t think about it what kind of thoughts at would you have arrive? You might box yourself into a corner_ that only exists in your mind’s eyes, You might talk to yourself into an order_ That doesn’t permit you to live your own life,
One night while trying to snooze you choose some stupid rules, Based off a judgment that might be not or be not true, Shutting you off from information or any news, It’s alarming how much time has passed on the clock you got a lot left to lose, So ’come on bro, what the fuck you gonna do? How many more the same days you’re gonna have to live through? How many more of the same ways are you gonna have to give into? How much more of this lame game are you gonna play through?
What the fuck does it take for you to live through you? Is it really you in there are is true a puppet for majin buu? How Many more blue notes do you write before you get a clue? How many more epiphanies slip through your hands that you can’t cling to,
Battle like Klingons to hold on to fantasies to keep your eyes drawn One day you might look up and find it’s all gone, One day you might Wake up and think what’s going on, Some days you might not wake up and not have enough strength to be strong,
It might seem lost when you learn it but think back to this song, Just be the seconds for a second cause After a second it’s long gone, The only thing that lasts forever is when you’re forever gone, Try to live your life as best you can before life’s last breath is drawn.

life filiterd through anything - is just as bad as any screen, Take all four of your sore eyes and start to see any being, There’s really no point in wearing a mask - they can’t see everything. Go up an abstraction level dont think about every thingg
You also probably can’t process every single scene, Follow the same path and you won’t be Egressing, All those comfy thoughts keep ye aught regressing, Time machine’s pot Slow it down before the clock rings
Soon youll be inside entombed rock, Turn on and attune the these soon new thoughts, You only got three days until the moon drops,The real lesson is terminal, turn it off and termina stops Some things you just can’t fix no matter how much tape, or hop scotch be aware and don’t stare Where warlock wore locks and rock robe likes Life can’t be lived as a rogue like, keep no pearls clutched and Cuddle no cope stoke only hope right? “Simple and clean” just isn’t the way I feel tonight. The ghost in my machine isnt really watching is this real or right?
i’ll be honest i might catch 40 winks and wink out like a night light? mom used To read stories to me Besides my bedside that’s a night night,
Almost everybody is somebody that I used to know, that don’t feel right But that’s my consequences so, Consequently concentrate on things that concentrate your soul, Maybe 30 years left and you’ve already paid An awful toll,
You’ve answered a lot of questions but there’s oh so many more from trolls, Just like life, fashion artist eventually draw clothes Keep yourself Sharp mentally as your days draw close, You grew up in Dungeons you already know how to slay many ghostss
I confess I’ve reminisced But I’ll never go back to sword coasts
Don’t ever act like you won’t be caught, Imaginary people can’t hurt you with their airy nary thoughts. Right now is Not a mental model that you can cancoct Use your whole body remember you used to not can walk.
Don’t forget your nole soul notes when you can show and tell talk.
Whether or not you see another noon or not.

So are the slave codes (c 1700s US) just like a blueprint for Codes for citizens?
Ideologies are dangerous and oftentimes have a habit of consuming those who operate in them.
You make a great point here: “Much of the problem with modern notions of ‘identity’ is the failure to recognize the burden being placed on others to make a person’s self-actualization possible in the first place. You don’t get to choose how you want to be seen not because society is oppressive but because you don’t get to decide for everyone else how society communicates with itself.” Performative action is in this respect a bit of a self-indulgence
The “my pronouns are…” game is very much a ‘game’. It’s nothing more than a power gambit that a reasonable person should refuse to play. 50/50 on this one

caught up in the lie. But they don’t know how to break it…. They’re in a

I am recovering from intense physical therapy where it’s taken me a whole year to even barely pick up forty pounds (3 times 1 set).
I have done reps times weight equal volume for a whole year . I have many problems and I need to have things explicitly, concretely laid out for me. I forget things often and volume wasn’t something that I could relate to. So I needed to learn more and actually see what was going on.
When I see that I’m only generating a few watts despite using heavier weights on wrist curls , T Let’s go over an example: I know that I can roughly do 5 reps @ 5 sets @ 8 lbs for supinated OHP. 5 x 5 x 8 lbs = 200 units of volume. 5 x 5 x 3.6kg ### math

General Case for |A| = n:
The number of distinct pairs (a₁, a₂) where a₁ ≠ a₂ would be n(n-1)/2. Your answer suggests using C(n, 2), which is correct for counting distinct pairs in general.
Considering Tuples of Size m ≤ n:
The number of distinct m-tuples where each coordinate is different would be n! / (n-m)!, as you need to choose and arrange m distinct elements from a set of n.

If |A| = n, there are n! ways of permuting all n elements of A.
However, a problem with an answer of 25!/23! can be reduced to 25 · 24, or 600.

Example 2.2.11: Ordering of digits under different conditions.
Consider only the digits 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5.
How many three-digit numbers can be formed if no repetition of digits can occur?
How many three-digit numbers can be formed if repetition of digits is allowed?
How many three-digit numbers can be formed if only non-consecutive repetition of digits are allowed?
Solutions to (a): Solution 1: Using the rule of products. We have any one of five choices for digit one, any one of four choices for digit two, and three
choices for digit three. Hence, 5 · 4 · 3 = 60 different three-digit numbers can be formed.
Solution 2; Using the permutation formula. We want the total number of permutations of five digits taken three at a time:
P(5,3)=5!(5−3)!=5⋅4⋅3=60
Solution to (b): The definition of permutation indicates “…no two elements in each list are the same.” Hence the permutation formula cannot be used. However, the rule of products still applies. We have any one of five choices for the first digit, five choices for the second, and five for the third. So there are 5 · 5 · 5 = 125 possible different three-digit numbers if repetition is allowed.
Solution to (c): Again, the rule of products applies here. We have any
one of five choices for the first digit, but then for the next two digits we have four choices since we are not allowed to repeat the previous digit So there are 5 · 4 · 4 = 80 possible different three-digit numbers if only non-consecutive repetitions are allowed.
Example 2.2.9:
Another example of choosing officers. A club has eight members eligible to serve as president, vice-president, and treasurer. How many ways are there of choosing these officers?
Solution 1: Using the rule of products. There are eight possible choices for the presidency, seven for the vice-presidency, and six for the office of treasurer.
By the rule of products, there are 8 · 7 · 6 = 336 ways of choosing these officers.
Solution 2: Using the permutation formula. We want the total number of permutations of eight objects taken three at a time:
P(8,3)=8!(8−3)!=8⋅7⋅6=336
2.1.2 The Rule Of Products
If two operations must be performed, and if the first operation can always be performed p1 different ways and the second operation can always be performed p2 different ways, then there are p1 · p2 different ways that the two operations can be performed.
Note: It is important that p2 does not depend on the option that is chosen in the first operation. Another way of saying this is that p2 is independent of the first operation. If p2 is dependent on the first operation, then the rule of products does not apply.
Extended Rule Of Products. The rule of products can be extended to include sequences of more than two operations. If n operations must be performed, and the number of options for each operation is p1, p 2 , . . . , pn respectively, with each pi independent of previous choices, then the n operations can be performed p 1 · p2 · · · · · p n different ways.
if |A| = n , then |℘(A)|=2n. The ease with which we can prove this fact demonstrates the power and usefulness of the rule of products. Do not underestimate the usefulness of simple ideas.

Power Set: set() {‘a’} {‘b’} {‘c’} {‘a’, ‘b’} {‘a’, ‘c’} {‘b’, ‘c’} {‘a’, ‘b’, ‘c’}
Cross Product Matrix: a b c ———— a | (‘a’, ‘a’) (‘a’, ‘b’) (‘a’, ‘c’) b | (‘b’, ‘a’) (‘b’, ‘b’) (‘b’, ‘c’) c | (‘c’, ‘a’) (‘c’, ‘b’) (‘c’, ‘c’)
Just notice that the triangles of the matrices will always correspond to the power set elements that have the same dimensions as your cross product operation. The diagonal line is the original set doubled and also all of the one element sets on the power set and the set itself #### Boolean matrices
Set Theory
A ∩ (⋃ᵢ₌₁ⁿ Bᵢ) = ⋃ᵢ₌₁ⁿ (A ∩ Bᵢ)
What this is saying is the intersection of A and the union of all sets Bᵢ through n is equivalent to the union of the intersection of A and every single Bᵢ from i to n.
Bit shifting
Another useful bitwise operation that can be performed on a piece of data is a bit shift. This is simply a slide of the data left or right by a certain number of places; data which is shifted out disappears and is replaced by a 0 being shifted in from the other end.
byte d = b11010110; byte e = d>>2; // right-shift d by two positions; e = b00110101 e = e<<3; // left-shift e by three positions; e = b10101000
We’ll demonstrate some uses of bit shifting later. One very useful application for bit shifts is multiplication and division: each right shift is the same as a division by two (although remainder information is lost) and each left shift is the same as a multiplication by two. This is useful because multiply and divide are often very time expensive operations on small processors, like the Arduino’s, but bit shifts are usually very efficient.

I have really low self esteem but I’m the only person who can talk **** about me get ****. ### Joint Entropy: Example: Suppose you roll two six-sided dice, which we’ll call Die 1 and Die 2. Each die can land on any of the numbers 1 through 6. The outcome of rolling both dice can be represented by the pair ((X, Y)), where (X) is the outcome of Die 1 and (Y) is the outcome of Die 2.
Step 1: Calculate the probability distribution
Each die roll is independent, and since there are 6 faces on each die, the probability of any specific outcome for either die is ( ). Therefore, the probability of any specific pair ((X = x, Y = y)) is:
[ P(X = x, Y = y) = = ]
for each ((x, y)) pair, where (x) and (y) are in ({1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6}).
The probability distribution over these two die is the cross product between both of the die’s support set
Step 2: Compute the joint entropy (H(X, Y))
The joint entropy (H(X, Y)) is defined as:
[ H(X, Y) = -{x {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6}} {y {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6}} P(X = x, Y = y) _2 P(X = x, Y = y) ]
Since (P(X = x, Y = y) = ) for each of the 36 possible outcomes:
[ H(X, Y) = -{x=1}^{6} {y=1}^{6} _2 () ]
Step 3: Simplify the expression
Notice that ( _2 () = -_2(36) ):
[ H(X, Y) = - _2 () ]
[ H(X, Y) = -_2 () ]
[ H(X, Y) = _2(36) ]
Finally, since (36 = 6 ), and (_2(6^2) = 2 _2(6)):
[ H(X, Y) = 2 _2(6) ]
So, the joint entropy of rolling two six-sided dice is (2 _2(6)), which is approximately 5.17 bits. This value represents the total uncertainty associated with the outcomes of both dice.

It’s called modus ponens. It tells us that if we know p -> q and we know p, then we can conclude q
(claim1 ^ claim2 ^ claim3 ^ … ^ claim _n) -> conclusion In other words, it “proves” that, if all the given claims are true, the conclusion must also be true. There are at least four common names for what we’ve just called claims: - premises - postulates - hypotheses - axioms
When discussing a single argument, taken on its own, without a larger context, it’s common to use the word premises or hypotheses. Sometimes, however, a single set of claims will be premises to a whole collection of related conclusions (typically called a theory). Then, the premises are usually called the axioms or postulates of the theory.
he conclusion follows from the set of claims (or premises or postulates or axioms). The set of claims logically implies the conclusion. The set of claims entails the conclusion.
social
building connections that aren’t friendships: with my Spanish teacher, my boss, the crossfit community, the ravers who dance with me all night, and even the neighbour with tattooed fingers, who now, after a year, says hi.
In my experience, if you’re just authentically, unapologetically yourself, you won’t meet many people. But those who you meet will be your people.
notes
What if you’re still anxious?
This must be because you’re low on social connections. You need to train your friendship muscle. Make sure your Fridays are for friends. Overcome your introvertism and engage in pleasant interactions. Ignore the differences between you and your old friends, pretend like you still click. Get out more. Make more effort. Be proactive, confident and keen. Try harder. It’s good for your mental health. Now go make friends, you loser! What if you’re still anxious?
Try to describe your mood better. Are you depressed, bored, lonely? No, okay. In this case, are you stressed, tense and exhausted? Ha. Then take something off your plate. Look at the “plate” of your week and carefully consider what doesn’t bring you joy.
Don’t ask for advice or read articles online. Stick to your gut.
Once you figure out what doesn’t bring you joy, stop putting effort in that direction and see what happens.

Let’s use a simpler example with a die that has 4 sides, which will make mental calculations easier. We’ll walk through the process of calculating the total information needed to store the outcomes of multiple rolls of this 4-sided die.
Entropy: Example: Rolling a Fair 4-Sided Die
Calculate the Information Content for a Single Roll
Number of Outcomes: A 4-sided die has 4 possible outcomes (1, 2, 3, 4).
Probability of Each Outcome: For a fair die, the probability of any specific outcome is:
[ p(x) = ]
Information Content of Each Outcome:
[ I(x) = -_2() ]
To calculate this:
[ _2() = _2(4^{-1}) = -_2(4) ]
Since ( _2(4) = 2 ):
[ _2() = -2 ]
Thus:
[ I(x) = -(-2) = 2 ]
So each roll of the 4-sided die gives you 2 bits of information.
Calculate the Total Information for Multiple Rolls
Number of Rolls: Suppose we roll the die 3 times.
Average Information Content per Roll: We have 2 bits per roll.
Total Information Calculation:
[ = ]
For 3 rolls:
[ = 3 = 6 ]
Representing the Outcomes
Total Number of Possible Outcomes: For 3 rolls of a 4-sided die, the total number of possible outcomes is:
[ 4^3 = 64 ]
Bits Needed to Represent All Outcomes:
To represent 64 possible outcomes:
[ _2(64) = _2(2^6) = 6 ]
So, 6 bits are needed to represent all possible outcomes of 3 rolls.
Summary
Information Content per Roll: Each roll of a 4-sided die provides 2 bits of information.
Total Information for 3 Rolls: To store the outcomes of 3 rolls, you need ( 3 = 6 ).
Representation of Outcomes: To cover 64 possible outcomes (for 3 rolls), 6 bits are exactly what you need, matching our calculation of ( 4^3 = 64 ) and ( _2(64) = 6 ).
Using a 4-sided die simplifies the mental calculations and illustrates how bits correspond to the number of possible outcomes and the total information needed.

Multiplication often appears in the guise of independent choices.
Exercise 1
Question
Find other examples of combining two objects to get a third. Which of them seem to fit our pattern? That is, for which of them does the third object seem to have ‘maps’ to the two you began with? It may be helpful to start by thinking of real- life problems for which multiplication of numbers is needed to calculate the solution, but not all examples are related to multiplication of numbers.
Solution
The word “object” can be syllabified and converted to the IPA phonetic alphabet as follows:
- Syllabification:
ob-ject
- IPA Conversion:
- “ob-” → /ˈɒb/
- “-ject” → /dʒɛkt/
So, the word “object” in IPA with syllabification is:
/ˈɒb.dʒɛkt/

Exercise 2
Question
The part of Galileo’s work which we discussed is really concerned with only a small portion of space, say the immediate neighbourhood of the tower of Pisa. Since the ground might be uneven, what could be meant by saying that two points are at the same level? Try to describe an experiment for deciding whether two nearby points are at the same level, without using ‘height’ (distance from an imaginary plane of reference.) Try to use the most elemen tary tools possible
Solution
Assuming the sun is directly overhead you could use the size of the shadow as a mapping to the height.This is also assuming the plane has access to that information.

When you’re looking at like integer proofs through like arithmetic and **** and you see patterns of sequences essentially what you’re doing is is looking at the lattice in a very specific rule set. And you’re basically finding rules to traverse through the lattice. I wonder if lattices have something to do with Pascal’s triangle
Unfounded hypothesis: All discrete math has relations somewhere between arrow and homomorphism.
If a mathematical tool can be applied to many different problems successfully then what does that say about the synonymity of the problem?
information theory is better understood as being fundamentally about the general mathematics of inference [26], par-ticularly, inference under conditions of uncertainty.
This distinction has been referred to as the difference between the syntactic information (which information theory is concerned with), and the semantic information (which it is not)
When considering “information theory as inference”, it is clear that the question of semantic information is largely irrelevant: we are not interested in what a message might mean, but rather, ensuring that we have inferred the correct message from some space of possible messages. The same mathematics, however can apply to any issue where we are attempting to increase our degree of certainty about the state of some as-yet-unknown variable. Whether it is a message coming down a pipe, the future state of an evolving system, or the degree of mutual coupling between two variables. These are the core questions that go into modelling complex systems

displacement = = √(x^2 + y^2) ℓ = ∆distance s = ℓ/∆t
Example:
ℓ = 45 m t_1 = 5 s t_2 = 10 s
s = ℓ /(t_2 - t_1) = __m/s s = 45/(10 - 5) = 9 m/s
Velocity
Velocity describes how fast a body moves in a specific direction x = x_1 - x_0 y = y_1 - y_0 or p = [x_1, y_1] - [x_0, y_0] v = ∆displacement/∆t = ∆d/∆t = sqrt(x^2 + y^2)/∆t
Example:
∆d = 39 m ∆t = 5 s v = ∆d/∆t = 39/5 = 7.8 m/s @ ~50°
And now for the velocity in the x, or down-the-field, direction: 1. Identify the known values and create a table of variables. • tf = t2 = 39 s • ti = t1 = 17 s • pi = 30 m (use the x value from the start position coordinates (30,15)) • pf = 55 m (use the x value from the final position coordinates (55,45)) • vx = Unknown, to be solved
v_x = (pf - pi) / (tf - ti) = (55 - 30) / (39 - 17) = ~1.13 m/s
And finally for the velocity in the y, or across-the-field, direction: 1. Identify the known values and create a table of variables. • tf = t2 = 39 s • ti = t1 = 17 s • pi = 15 m (use the y value from the start position coordinates (30,15)) • pf = 45 m (use the y value from the final position coordinates (55,45)) • vy = Unknown, to be solved
v_y = (pf - pi) / (tf - ti) = (45 - 15) / (39 - 17) = ~1.4 m/s
Describe the velocity of the player like this:
The resultant velocity of 1.8 m/s at 500 degrees consisted of component velocities of 1.13 m/s in the x direction and 1.4 m/s in the y direction. ## 8/10/2024

Lesson on Fundamental Logic Gates, De Morgan’s Principle, and Boolean Groups
1. Introduction to Fundamental Logic Gates
We’ll start with the basic logic gates: AND, OR, NOT, NAND, NOR, XOR, and XNOR.
- AND Gate: Outputs true (1) only if both inputs are true.
- Symbol: ( A B )
- OR Gate: Outputs true if at least one input is true.
- Symbol: ( A B )
- NOT Gate: Outputs the negation of the input.
- Symbol: ( A )
- NAND Gate: Outputs the negation of the AND gate.
- Symbol: ( (A B) )
- NOR Gate: Outputs the negation of the OR gate.
- Symbol: ( (A B) )
- XOR Gate: Outputs true if inputs are different.
- Symbol: ( A B )
- XNOR Gate: Outputs true if inputs are the same.
- Symbol: ( (A B) ) or ( A B )
2. Applying De Morgan’s Laws
De Morgan’s laws are central to understanding the relationships between different logic gates. These laws allow us to express the negation of an AND gate in terms of OR, and vice versa.
De Morgan’s Laws: 1. ( (A B) = A B ) 2. ( (A B) = A B )
These laws show how you can transform between gates by negating inputs and outputs.
AND and NOR Gates:
- AND Gate: ( A B )
- NOR Gate (Negation of OR): ( (A B) )
Using De Morgan: [ (A B) = A B ] This is the OR gate with negated inputs, which is the NOR gate.
OR and NAND Gates:
- OR Gate: ( A B )
- NAND Gate (Negation of AND): ( (A B) )
Using De Morgan: [ (A B) = A B ] This is the AND gate with negated inputs, which is the NAND gate.
XOR and XNOR Gates:
XOR and XNOR have their own unique relationships: - XOR Gate: ( A B ) - XNOR Gate (Negation of XOR): ( (A B) )
These gates don’t have direct De Morgan transformations, but they are closely related: - ( A B = (A B) (A B) ) - ( A B = (A B) = (A B) (A B) )
3. Boolean Group and Logic Gates
Understanding the Boolean Group Structure
A group in mathematics is a set equipped with an operation that combines any two elements to form a third element while satisfying four conditions: closure, associativity, identity, and invertibility.
For logic gates, the operations (like AND, OR, NOT) can be considered as elements that form a group under certain operations like composition.
- Identity: The identity in Boolean logic is the operation that leaves the input unchanged, which is the NOT operation applied twice.
- Invertibility: Each gate has an inverse operation. For example, the inverse of AND is NAND.
- Closure: Combining two logic gates yields another valid logic gate within the system.
- Associativity: The operation of combining gates (composition) is associative.
Boolean Group with Gates:
- Elements: The set includes the basic gates and their compositions (e.g., AND, OR, NOT, NAND, NOR).
- Operation: The group operation is the combination of gates (composition).
- Identity Element: The double negation (NOT NOT or ((A))) acts as the identity element, equivalent to the original input.
- Inverses: Each gate has an inverse within this system. For example:
- AND is the inverse of NAND (and vice versa).
- OR is the inverse of NOR (and vice versa).
Example of a Group Formation:
Consider the gates under the operation of composition: - Identity: ( I = = A ) - AND and NAND: ( A B ) and ( (A B) ) - OR and NOR: ( A B ) and ( (A B) )
If we treat these gates as elements, we can form a group where combining operations follows the group’s rules.
Properties:
- Commutativity: Some of these groups are commutative (e.g., AND, OR) where the order doesn’t matter, while others like XOR are not commutative.
- Symmetry: Many logic gate groups are symmetric, meaning swapping inputs doesn’t change the output.
4. Practical Applications
Understanding these relationships is powerful in circuit design: - Circuit Simplification: Using De Morgan’s laws and the concept of duality, you can simplify complex Boolean expressions, reducing the number of gates required in a circuit. - Fault Tolerance: If a specific gate fails, you can sometimes replace it with its dual, maintaining the circuit’s functionality. - Optimization: By recognizing the group structure, you can optimize logic circuits for speed, power, or size.
Exercises:
Transformations: Given a logic circuit composed of AND, OR, and NOT gates, apply De Morgan’s laws to transform it into an equivalent circuit using NAND and NOR gates only.
Group Operation: Verify the group properties (closure, associativity, identity, and invertibility) for the set of operations {AND, OR, NOT, NAND, NOR} under composition.
Boolean Expression Simplification: Simplify the Boolean expression ( (A (B C)) ) using De Morgan’s laws.
Design a Circuit: Design a logic circuit that uses only NAND gates to implement a function equivalent to ( A B C ).
This structured approach will give you a solid understanding of how basic logic gates relate to each other, how De Morgan’s principles apply, and how these operations can form a Boolean group.

If you look at this diagram you can see how we could draw a diagonal as the composition of the operators on the logic group. I don’t know if any of this is useful but it’s really nice being able to pick out this structure that just keeps showing up. ### journal My friend Adrian is the only one I know who is able to connect and make great leaps of insight like myself.^1 He expresses this insatiable need to learn and master systems in a different way. Most of my pursuits have been purely intellectual because I’m **** lazy and think that’s what being smart means and a lot of his are more practical and pragmatic. He fixes things, and he doesn’t need to know the whole system before he starts working in it. He’s able to compartmentalize and work locally. He usually only branches out when necessary.
He finishes things more than I do partly of that is because my hands don’t work so grea so a lot of times I only have mental exercise. But also again, I’m lazy. And I smoked too much weed.
other people can do this, I just don’t know anybody personally.

John Sturrock argues that whereas semantics focuses on what words mean, semiotics is concerned with how signs mean (Sturrock 1986, 22)
semantics: the relationship of signs to what they stand for;
syntactics (or syntax): the formal or structural relations between signs;
pragmatics: the relation of signs to interpreters (Morris 1938, 6-7).

self assembly
Formulated in two basic versions, the abstract Tile Assembly Model (aTAM) and the kinetic Tile Assembly Model (kTAM), it was based on a cross between the theoretical study of Wang tiles (flat squares with colored markings on their edges and matching rules for the ways those edges can be placed next to each other)

Okay so I guess variables are just functions.😆😆😆 I feel like I have fallen down a hole. Every time I look at Math, there’s just more and more and more and more. Like after learning the basics of category theory and learning of computational Trinitarianism it’s like I’ve reached the top of a new plateau. Where everything below that had felt so large now seemed like stuff I would have learned in elementary school.
Seriously, I’m not trying to say that I know or rather grok a lot of this higher mathematical stuff. I don’t think I’ve even begun to put any of the larger pieces together and don’t think I will for years to come.
It’s reminiscent of the feeling when I first started really being able to play with code. And discovered that I was able to put stuff into a text file and iterate on it. Except this time I kind of have like a reference.

Thinking categories in terms of pre orders makes them simpler because you don’t have to worry about all the arrows you can guarantee there’s a unique relations #### Exponential OK so all the evaluation morphism does is it takes all of the functions contained in the exponential set and map the elements of B to each function?
Yes, that’s correct! Let’s refine this understanding with a bit more precision.
Evaluation Morphism in Detail
In the context of the exponential object (C^B), the evaluation morphism () has a specific role:
[ : C^B B C ]
This morphism effectively “applies” a function from the exponential object (C^B) to an element of (B) and maps it to an element of (C). Let’s break this down step by step:
Exponential Object (C^B): This is the set of all functions from (B) to (C). Each element of (C^B) is a function (f: B C).
Evaluation Morphism (): For a given pair ((f, b) C^B B), where (f) is a function from (C^B) and (b) is an element of (B), the evaluation morphism maps this pair to (C) by applying the function (f) to the element (b):
[ (f, b) = f(b) ]
In other words, the evaluation morphism “evaluates” the function (f) at the point (b).
Concrete Example with Power Sets
Let’s use a concrete example to clarify this.
Example
Let (X = {1, 2, 3}).
- Subset (B = {1, 2})
- Subset (C = {2, 3})
Step 1: Define the Exponential Object (C^B)
The exponential object (C^B) consists of all functions from (B) to (C). These are:
- (f_1: B C) where (f_1(1) = 2) and (f_1(2) = 2)
- (f_2: B C) where (f_2(1) = 2) and (f_2(2) = 3)
- (f_3: B C) where (f_3(1) = 3) and (f_3(2) = 2)
- (f_4: B C) where (f_4(1) = 3) and (f_4(2) = 3)
So, (C^B = {f_1, f_2, f_3, f_4}).
Step 2: Define the Evaluation Morphism
The evaluation morphism () takes a pair ((f, b) C^B B) and maps it to (C) by applying the function (f) to the element (b):
- ((f_1, 1) = f_1(1) = 2)
- ((f_1, 2) = f_1(2) = 2)
- ((f_2, 1) = f_2(1) = 2)
- ((f_2, 2) = f_2(2) = 3)
- ((f_3, 1) = f_3(1) = 3)
- ((f_3, 2) = f_3(2) = 2)
- ((f_4, 1) = f_4(1) = 3)
- ((f_4, 2) = f_4(2) = 3)
So the evaluation morphism essentially applies each function in (C^B) to each element of (B).
selfwork
Ask yourself: What’s the next right thing? What’s the best I can do with what I have right now, in this moment — not tomorrow, not in ten minutes, but right now? What do I need right now? If my life were a novel and the present moment were a chapter in the story, what would I want the character to do next? What would future me wish that current me to do today? What’s something I can do right now to move in the right direction? I can’t stop x thing from happening on the other side of the globe. Can I raise awareness? Can I call someone? Can I donate? Can I educate myself?
The fact that we can’t predict the future means we can stop trying to. Rather than following a plan, follow a north star or an intention and just see what happens, approach life as an exploration.
When we stop trying to control and strategize, when we detach from dreaded or desired outcomes,
Doing the next right thing is about starting where we are and making the best right-now choice rather than trying to come up with or adhere to a perfect long-term plan. This helps to clear our Cognitive Load, free up inner-resources, and lead to best possible outcomes.

Shannon Entropy
Sure, let’s break down the concepts of Shannon entropy, Kolmogorov complexity, and how they come together in the concept of high-order entropy.
Shannon entropy is a measure of the uncertainty or randomness in a set of data. For a string of length ( n ), where each character (or token) comes from an alphabet ( ), the Shannon entropy ( H ) is calculated as:
[ H(X) = - _{x } P(x) _2 P(x) ]
Here: - ( X ) is the random variable representing the characters in the string. - ( P(x) ) is the probability of each character ( x ) appearing in the string.
This formula gives you a measure of how unpredictable the string is based on the distribution of characters.
Kolmogorov Complexity
Kolmogorov complexity ( K ) of a string is the length of the shortest possible description (in some fixed programming language) of that string. It is a theoretical measure of the computational resources needed to specify the string.
- For a string ( s ), ( K(s) ) represents the length of the shortest program that can produce ( s ) as output.
Normalized Kolmogorov Complexity
Normalized Kolmogorov complexity is the Kolmogorov complexity ( K ) divided by the length of the string ( n ):
[ K = ]
This normalization allows us to compare complexities of strings of different lengths on a per-character basis.
High-Order Entropy
High-order entropy ( H_e ) combines Shannon entropy and normalized Kolmogorov complexity to provide a more refined measure of complexity:
[ H_e = H - ]
Here: - ( H ) is the Shannon entropy. - ( K(s) ) is the Kolmogorov complexity of the string ( s ). - ( n ) is the length of the string.
Interpretation
- Shannon entropy measures the average uncertainty or randomness of individual characters.
- Kolmogorov complexity measures the compressibility or the minimum description length of the entire string.
- High-order entropy subtracts the normalized Kolmogorov complexity from the Shannon entropy to capture the discrepancy between local randomness (Shannon entropy) and global structure (Kolmogorov complexity).
Example
Let’s consider a simple example. Suppose we have a string ( s ) consisting of repeated patterns, like “abababab”.
- Shannon Entropy:
- The string has 4 ’a’s and 4 ’b’s.
- ( P(a) = P(b) = 0.5 ).
- ( H(X) = - (0.5 _2 0.5 + 0.5 _2 0.5) = 1 ).
- Kolmogorov Complexity:
- A simple program to generate “abababab” might be “repeat ‘ab’ 4 times”.
- The length of this description is much shorter than the string itself.
- Suppose ( K(s) = 20 ) bits (just for example’s sake).
- Normalized Kolmogorov Complexity:
- The length ( n ) of the string is 8.
- ( K = = 2.5 ).
- High-Order Entropy:
- ( H_e = H - = 1 - 2.5 = -1.5 ).
The negative value indicates that the string is less random and more structured than what is suggested by its Shannon entropy alone.
By combining these metrics, high-order entropy provides a deeper understanding of the string’s complexity, taking into account both local randomness and global compressibility.
Summary
- Shannon Entropy: Measures local randomness.
- Kolmogorov Complexity: Measures global compressibility.
- High-Order Entropy: Difference between Shannon entropy and normalized Kolmogorov complexity, providing a nuanced measure of complexity.

we calling a plus b the least upper bound of a and b. well you see with this notation we’ve got that a plus b is greater than or equal to a and it’s greater than or equal to b so it is sort of an upper bound on a and b.
But it is also the least such one because if we have any other such thing like this h here which is greater than or equal to a greater than equals b then h is greater than or equal to a plus b so a plus b is like the smallest thing which is greater than or equal to a and b.
and then if you think about the kind of set theory version of that think about what’s the kind of smallest subset which contains a and contains b it’s the union right the union of a and b that’s the set of all elements which are in a or b
On Analogizing
https://www.vocabulary.com/dictionary/analogize
When you analogize, you explain one thing by comparing it to another. You make an analogy. If you say that DNA is like a twisted ladder, you analogize to make it easier for someone to imagine.
The word analogize comes from the Greek analogizesthai which basically means “to sum up.” …
Interesting so by this definition, My understanding of analogy has been extremely wrong. There’s probably ways to implicitly analogize as well.
There’s simile and there’s metaphor but what I’m getting at here is all of this is a fuzzy approximation or at it’s loosest end, simply Some relation.
I’m interested in something a little more concrete.
What are functors?
I’m borrowing the term functor from category theory which is a structure preserving operation from one category to another.
The simplest example I can think of is say you have a category of round Cups in a cupboard.
Now let’s say one day you take all the cups out and you replace all of them with power tools(Exactly one for each cup).
But then you become self conscious because you’re keeping power tools in the kitchen, So you toss all that out and replace them with glass cups.
But then you…
It doesn’t matter what happens, Each time you have the same number of items in the cupboard right? Your operation is replacing the items but all of the meta structure is preserved–you still have the same amount of items And you can always replace the items with something else.
Your explanation offers a creative analogy to illustrate the concept of functors in category theory. However, it could be clarified to better align with the formal definition. Here’s a more refined version:
---
### What are Functors?
In category theory, a functor is a structure-preserving map between categories. Think of it as a consistent way to transform objects and morphisms (arrows) in one category to objects and morphisms in another, while respecting the categorical structure.
Let's use a more relatable example to explain this concept.
Imagine you have a category of round cups in a cupboard. Each cup represents an object, and moving a cup from one position to another represents a morphism.
One day, you decide to replace each round cup with a power tool. The cupboard now contains power tools instead of cups. The objects have changed, but you still have a one-to-one correspondence between the original set of cups and the new set of power tools.
Now, you become self-conscious about keeping power tools in the kitchen, so you replace them with glass cups. Again, the objects in the cupboard have changed, but the one-to-one correspondence is maintained.
No matter how many times you replace the items, you always have the same number of items, and the relationships (morphisms) between the items are preserved. This operation of replacing items while maintaining the structure is analogous to what a functor does.
\(F\) between two categories \(C\) and \(D\) consists of:
A functor 1. A function \(F\) mapping each object in \(C\) to an object in \(D\).
2. A function \(F\) mapping each morphism in \(C\) to a morphism in \(D\).
These mappings must preserve the structure of the categories:- If \(f: A \rightarrow B\) is a morphism in \(C\), then \(F(f): F(A) \rightarrow F(B)\) is a morphism in \(D\).
- For every object \(A\) in \(C\), \(F(\text{id}_A) = \text{id}_{F(A)}\).
- If \(g \circ f\) is the composition of \(f\) and \(g\) in \(C\), then \(F(g \circ f) = F(g) \circ F(f)\).
In summary, a functor transforms the objects and morphisms of one category into another while preserving the categorical structure. Just like in our example, the items in the cupboard changed, but the overall structure (the one-to-one correspondence and relationships) remained intact.
---
This refined version explains the concept more formally while still using your analogy to make it accessible.
what is semantics?
Depending on the field you’re studying this has Various meanings but it basically I interpret it as:
The underlying conceptual meaning of a textother words, it’s what you’re trying to say not how you’re trying to say it.
defined as a Single unit of meaning from a predefined language natural or otherwise.
semantic functors
Alright so if we smash these two things together we get semantic functors. What I’m basically trying to say is that you can use explicit descriptive examples of things in multiple different ways to say the same thing.
And just like a functor, a semantic functor is a structure preserving operation from one category to another, In our case we use the category of English language.

The exponential looks like it takes a definition of a function in an input and returns the function at that input
Universal morphism
whenever you have a function with many inputs you can think well i can think of it as a function which returns a function which has one less input and then you can always sort of chain things together so that you can think of everything in terms of functions with one input
there’s many interesting examples of exponential objects and it’s so worthwhile to get to grips with them um so you know one can start to think about them in terms of sets and a great way to begin is just to take two sets and then to just see if you can write down all the different functions from one set to another and then maybe try and work out what’s the formula for the number of functions from one set to another set in terms of how many elements those source and target sets have and you can think about the ideas of evaluating functions and iterating functions and all sorts of things in terms of exponential objects so s ### 7/22/2024 Please earnestly just leave me alone if not I’ve got wireless bullets next to my cellular phone

funtion equivalency
empty set is a sort of initial object in this category of sets
the empty sets the only set that has a function from it into the empty set is itself empty
cartesian product
what does that mean well in a sense you could say it’s a element of the set which is the cartesian product of the set of men and the set of women it’s a pair of a man and a woman and if you do
You take out of the data structure with: projection
these are our functions which allow us to basically extract the values out of this kind of a times b thing
And you can put things into:
This looks suspiciously like vector matrix multiplication. Where the matrix is the frost product on the set and the vector is H
I believe a market intelligence is looking at an item and being able to see it in as many ways as possible.
This includes mental items ideas Etcetera. And I think category theory is a way to help explore this
Categorical product
OK so consider H the set of all the cleaning processes for categories A and B.
I put the coffee cup and the plate in the Special cleaning machine. This machine runs a specific cleaning function for each type of kitchenware.
I then initiate pi one and get my cleaned coffee cup back and I initiate pi two and get my cleaned plate back.
The categorical product can be viewed as
Categorical co product
disjoint or discriminated union of these two sets discriminated union of these two things

A category is: - A set of objects - A set of morphisms(arrows) - has an identity morphism - composition - associativity
The set of perfect rhymes under m_n phonemes is the objects of the category.
The set of perfect rhymes under m_n phonemes is the objects of the category.
The morphisms or arrows are the rhyming relations. In this case every single Perfect rhyme rhymes perfectly with every other perfect rhyme in the set.
the identity Morphism is the arrow unto itself which coincidentally is A class of rhymes called identical rhymes wherein which every syllable is exactly the same
The rhyming relation respects composition because given any three words that perfectly rhyme with each other if the first one rhymes with the second one and the second one rhymes with the third then the first one must rhyme with the third.
Associativity holds because #Todo
Is every object in relation to itself its own category with one object?
the key observation is that elements in a set correspond to functions into that set from a single element set
also is sort of reminiscent of some ideas from language like the idea that you could um kind of make nouns into verbs if you like um so like arrows are more like kind of verbs and you can and the remarkable thing is you can describe everything in category theory in terms
USE tue NOT CORRECT ON TUESDAY
maybe diff everything terminal objects w_everything rhymes with everything
Also there is a proof stating that identity morphisms are unique but if we look at The set of perfect rhymes we can trivially prove this: PROOF:
Consider the set of perfect rhymes that rhyme on syllables s ∈ S Where S is the set of all possible syllables in the English language. And we have a sane repeatable way to syllabify every word.
A perfect rhyme is defined as words that have the same syllables but only differ on their beginning consonants.
And define identical Rhymes as two words that have the same exact syllables.
And let’s define homophones as two words that are spelled the same but sound different.
So speaking in English we can say that homophones and identical rhymes are equal.
And also since they’re equal they both have the same exact syllables and if they have the same exact syllables then they must be Transcribed or written in the same exact way, it doesn’t matter the orthography.
So there is only one identity and that is itself.
The only thing we kinda have to hold hands about is we need to agree
Functional composition of functions ( f ) and ( g ) is defined as:
[ (f g)(x) = f(g(x)) ]
where ( g ) is applied first, followed by ( f ).
These are functional viewpoint translations

An identity map can be thought of as a zero-fold composite, in much the same way that the number 1 can be thought of as the product of zero numbers.s
The isomorphisms in Set are exactly the bijections
Trig
This category to me suggests that there is an isomorphism between it and trigonometry. And a funk door between intriguing armory and trigonometry and the vector representation.
functor
the composition of the image of arrows is the image of the composition of the arrows
just like a function doesn’t have to cover all of its target sets these functors don’t have to cover all at the target category
and can be many to some
Covariant functor preserves the direction of arrows

私は,thats me, 僕は, that’s how i be.
I think that given a finite list of words that rhyme no two will be equivalent in their relation unless they are identical. And identical rhymes are more rare than not So I think you can have an order over the set of all words that rhyme within a given set of syllables and sound
Consider “time” and ‘tyme’, and “dime” Where ‘tyme’ is the Identical rhyme and all perfect rhymes are 1 consonant difference in the beginning right? But now consider the distance that the tongue and mouth have to move to get to the different phoneme. I think this distance can form relationship maps over the perfect rhyme words to form some sort of order. So despite time and dime being perfect rhymes, the distance between the tongue and mouth is close They’re both using types of plosives
Alphonic substitution would also drop it out of the identical rhyme into somewhere in between the perfect and identical.
So consider this for distance right consider the word “back” Now consider “pack”, Both plosives so in articulation space they’re closer. Now let’s take the same word “back” And consider “sack” this time; Instead now we have a fricative, We’re no longer using the lips and instead of the tip of the tongue. It’s a different class of movementt. buuuut s and t Are basically the same exact tongue placement just one is a plosive and the other one is a fricative.

I’m looking at like you know alphones alphones homophones and stuff like that what other words are there for relations between phonemes and morphemes and graphemes I need all of them please and I need to know how they all relate please.
Examples
Pre-glottalization normally occurs in British and American English when the fortis consonant phoneme is followed by another consonant or when the consonant is in final position. Thus football and catching are often pronounced [ˈfʊʔtbɔːl] (fuutbal) and [ˈkæʔtʃɪŋ],(catt-ching) respectively. Even more frequently, glottal replacement happens in such cases involving /t/, so that football is pronounced [ˈfʊʔbɔːl] (fuhtbull).
Consider my example: If~you're~sixty footʔtall, That's~too~tall~for footʔball
notes
English is an extremely lossy representation of phonically what is happening in the rhyme
such as [p] (for the p in spit) versus [pʰ] (for the p in pit, which in English is an aspirated allophone of /p/: pronounced with an extra burst of air).
A pair of words like kátur and gátur (above) that differ only in one phone is called a minimal pair for the two alternative phones in question (in this case, [kʰ] and k).
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/English_phonology >(English orthography is not as strongly phonemic as that of many other languages).
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fortis_and_lenis# >In linguistics, fortis and lenis (/ˈfɔːrtɪs/ FOR-tiss and /ˈliːnɪs, ˈlɛnɪs/ LEE-niss, LEN-iss;“strong” and “weak”), sometimes identified with ‘tense’ and ‘lax’, are pronunciations of consonants with relatively greater and lesser energy, respectively. English has
fortis consonants, such as the p in pat, with a corresponding lenis consonant, such as the b in bat. Fortis and lenis consonants may be distinguished by tenseness or other characteristics, such as voicing, aspiration, glottalization, velarization, length, and length of nearby vowels. Fortis and lenis were coined for languages where the contrast between sounds such as ‘p’ and ‘b’ does not involve voicing (vibration of the vocal cords).
Pre-glottalization Is a beautiful phrase.

My philosophy with In exploring the system is heavily influenced by J Cummings. It goes as such: grab the smallest pieces of the system and move them around. That’s it.
The next step if you want to internalize the system you’re working with you need some repetition whether that’s doing problems of it every day reading about it every day although that’s passive and I really really recommend an active activity. Personally if I want the system in my soul, I take its basic pieces and break them up and put them in flash cards and I memorize the **** out of them for a month or so. This takes a lot of effort from me’cause it’s almost a little painful to do it this way but I found this is one of the ways that you can really force yourself to grab a hold of one part of the picture.

So the next most logical thing to do is take a song that you like and try and To transcribe it in such a way where you could see all of the phonemes and how long of an interval they took.
And to me this seems like a whole shit ton of work. So I asked Sam Altman’s homunculus to help me out:
transcription
Let’s create a basic 2-stanza song in 4/4 time and demonstrate how rhyming can be mapped as a cross product of English phonemes and musical intervals.
Basic 2-Stanza Song
Stanza 1:
Line 1: Twinkle, twinkle, little star
Line 2: How I wonder what you are
Line 3: Up above the world so high
Line 4: Like a diamond in the sky
Stanza 2:
Line 1: Twinkle, twinkle, little star
Line 2: How I wonder what you are
4/4 Time Notation
In 4/4 time, each measure has 4 beats. We’ll map each syllable to a musical note, and for simplicity, we’ll use quarter notes for each syllable.
Rhyming and Cross Product
We’ll consider rhyming syllables as pairs that share similar phonemes.
Rhyming Pairs: - “star” and “are” - “high” and “sky”
Human note:
It is a very good thing that the homunculus defined rhyming for us I did not rigorously define what a rhyme is. There is an amazing post by Chase λ https://blog.chaselambda.com/2022/05/07/rhyme-theory.html
Where he gives an explicit definition of what a rhyme is but I’m Going to relax on the rigor a little bit and Justice assume that we all have a common idea of what I mean by rhyming
, or something rhymes
.
Once you can break down words into the phony and start using phonemes that rhyme as like a variable they can swap out but with a constraint because it has to like make a real word right
So it could be said two words could rhyme if they have similar phonemes in similar locations and the ordered set of phonemes is a subset of English words
Cross Product
We will take the cross product of English phonemes with musical intervals for the rhyming pairs in each measure. Here’s how it might look for our song:
Mapping to the Song
Stanza 1:
Measure | Syllables | Phonemes (IPA) | Musical Interval (4/4 Time) | Cross Product |
---|---|---|---|---|
1 | Twin-kle, twin-kle, lit-tle star | /t/, /w/, /ɪ/, /ŋ/, /k/, /l/, /ɪ/, /t/, /l/, /s/, /t/, /ɑː/ | Quarter notes | (/t/, 1/4), (/w/, 1/4), (/ɪ/, 1/4), (/ŋ/, 1/4), (/k/, 1/4), (/l/, 1/4), (/ɪ/, 1/4), (/t/, 1/4), (/l/, 1/4), (/s/, 1/4), (/t/, 1/4), (/ɑː/, 1/4) |
2 | How I won-der what you are | /h/, /aʊ/, /aɪ/, /w/, /ʌ/, /n/, /d/, /ɜː/, /w/, /ɑː/, /t/, /j/, /uː/, /ɑː/ | Quarter notes | (/h/, 1/4), (/aʊ/, 1/4), (/aɪ/, 1/4), (/w/, 1/4), (/ʌ/, 1/4), (/n/, 1/4), (/d/, 1/4), (/ɜː/, 1/4), (/w/, 1/4), (/ɑː/, 1/4), (/t/, 1/4), (/j/, 1/4), (/uː/, 1/4), (/ɑː/, 1/4) |
3 | Up a-bove the world so high | /ʌ/, /p/, /ə/, /b/, /ʌ/, /v/, /ð/, /ə/, /w/, /ɜː/, /l/, /d/, /s/, /əʊ/, /h/, /aɪ/ | Quarter notes | (/ʌ/, 1/4), (/p/, 1/4), (/ə/, 1/4), (/b/, 1/4), (/ʌ/, 1/4), (/v/, 1/4), (/ð/, 1/4), (/ə/, 1/4), (/w/, 1/4), (/ɜː/, 1/4), (/l/, 1/4), (/d/, 1/4), (/s/, 1/4), (/əʊ/, 1/4), (/h/, 1/4), (/aɪ/, 1/4) |
4 | Like a di-a-mond in the sky | /l/, /aɪ/, /k/, /ə/, /d/, /aɪ/, /ə/, /m/, /ə/, /n/, /d/, /ɪ/, /n/, /ð/, /ə/, /s/, /k/, /aɪ/ | Quarter notes | (/l/, 1/4), (/aɪ/, 1/4), (/k/, 1/4), (/ə/, 1/4), (/d/, 1/4), (/aɪ/, 1/4), (/ə/, 1/4), (/m/, 1/4), (/ə/, 1/4), (/n/, 1/4), (/d/, 1/4), (/ɪ/, 1/4), (/n/, 1/4), (/ð/, 1/4), (/ə/, 1/4), (/s/, 1/4), (/k/, 1/4), (/aɪ/, 1/4) |
Stanza 2:
Measure | Syllables | Phonemes (IPA) | Musical Interval (4/4 Time) | Cross Product |
---|---|---|---|---|
5 | Twin-kle, twin-kle, lit-tle star | /t/, /w/, /ɪ/, /ŋ/, /k/, /l/, /ɪ/, /t/, /l/, /s/, /t/, /ɑː/ | Quarter notes | (/t/, 1/4), (/w/, 1/4), (/ɪ/, 1/4), (/ŋ/, 1/4), (/k/, 1/4), (/l/, 1/4), (/ɪ/, 1/4), (/t/, 1/4), (/l/, 1/4), (/s/, 1/4), (/t/, 1/4), (/ɑː/, 1/4) |
6 | How I won-der what you are | /h/, /aʊ/, /aɪ/, /w/, /ʌ/, /n/, /d/, /ɜː/, /w/, /ɑː/, /t/, /j/, /uː/, /ɑː/ | Quarter notes | (/h/, 1/4), (/aʊ/, 1/4), (/aɪ/, 1/4), (/w/, 1/4), (/ʌ/, 1/4), (/n/, 1/4), (/d/, 1/4), (/ɜː/, 1/4), (/w/, 1/4), (/ɑː/, 1/4), (/t/, 1/4), (/j/, 1/4), (/uː/, 1/4), (/ɑː/, 1/4) |
This table shows each measure, the syllables within that measure, their IPA phoneme representations, the musical intervals (quarter notes in this case), and the cross product of phonemes with intervals.
For each pair of rhyming words: - Stanza 1, Measure 1 & 2: “star” (/s/, /t/, /ɑː/, /r/) and “are” (/ɑː/, /r/) - Stanza 1, Measure 3 & 4: “high” (/h/, /aɪ/) and “sky” (/s/, /k/, /aɪ/)
These pairs can be considered as elements of the cross product set where the intervals and phonemes match.
This basic framework demonstrates how you can start mapping phonemes and intervals to songs using category theory concepts. For more detailed songs, this mapping can be extended and refined. Let me know if you’d like to explore this further!

Whenever you make a key decision or take a key action, write down what you expect will happen. Nine or 12 months later, compare the actual results with your expectations.
Second, work on improving your strengths. Analysis will rapidly show where you need to improve skills or acquire new ones. It will also show the gaps in your knowledge—and those can usually be filled. Mathematicians are born, but everyone can learn trigonometry.
Third, discover where your intellectual arrogance is causing disabling ignorance and overcome it. Far too many people—especially people with great expertise in one area—are contemptuous of knowledge in other areas or believe that being bright is a substitute for knowledge. First-rate engineers, for instance, tend to take pride in not knowing anything about people. Human beings, they believe, are much too disorderly for the good engineering mind. Human resources professionals, by contrast, often pride themselves on their ignorance of elementary accounting or of quantitative methods altogether. But taking pride in such ignorance is self-defeating. Go to work on acquiring the skills and knowledge you need to fully realize your strengths.
Like so many brilliant people, he believes that ideas move mountains. But bulldozers move mountains; ideas show where the bulldozers should go to work.
Energy, resources, and time should go instead to making a competent person into a star performer.
Do not try to change yourself—you are unlikely to succeed. Work to improve the way you perform.
The conclusion bears repeating: Do not try to change yourself—you are unlikely to succeed. But work hard to improve the way you perform. And try not to take on work you cannot perform or will only perform poorly.

2 Responses to “Servant Leadership Theory”
Todd M. September 13, 2023
I am currently utilizing the servant leadership approach at my factory. I am a relatively new plant manager (was a QA manager prior) and after 1.5 years, the results have been very good on several measurements, especially engagement scores of the workforce. Performance has improved dramatically and the management team under me has developed into a very competent team and are able to deliver results every month.
Ultimately, I think there are a few key factors to success:
– A competent and autonomous management team is a must. My leaders list autonomy as their #1 value and they all very capable and effective within their departments. As a leader, I have learned that this model will struggle if people are not self-motivated in this way. The team members that struggle with this need heavy coaching or need to move on.
– It’s not enough to preach. The living of the idea starts with the leader. I sometimes feel like part psychologist/counselor, which requires a lot active listening to make sure all are heard and feel valued. I am not sure that this is a generational thing but I don’t believe upper management in the corporation that I report to fully understands this concept. People MUST feel heard and feel that their contribution is valued. When they don’t they need to trust that they can open to their leader and talk openly about the issue and then the leader can help them work through the issues without solving the problem for them.
– Vision: This is equally important. So once you have a self-actualized team, they need to have a vision/mission to work to. Not having a strategy and a plan to work to can lead to frustration and conflict. This is true in any scenario but the team that is empowered to make decisions need to have clear context to what is value add vs. non-value add.
Additionally, servant leadership style is not on it’s own a model for how a business should be run. This is a core-values based approach to how you develop a team and grow leaders within an organization but I rely on my experience, problem solving and other management skills to do the job. Ultimately, I realize that there is no amount of solutions that I could deliver in any given situation such that I alone could deliver the results. I am the one who is dependent on my employees, and they are not dependent on me (though they may believe so). So what value do I add but to do the things I stated above?
Personally, I don’t know any effective leader that doesn’t employ some or all of these concepts.

Most of my family just wants to be right in some form or another. And, at all points, will (un)consciously argue^1 that what you said cognitively dissonates. And further so, you will Subjected It’s reframing. It’s not egregious all the time and it varies from person to person. But sometimes I feel like I’m the only one that can ever admit that he’s wrong.
This so self assured Righteousness from everyone about everything Must be blinding because no one can see the irony that all of us have been poor our whole lives.
I’m familiar with the idea that being smart does not equal being rich. But I’m also under the impression that if your bank account Value is like the X coordinate of a pong ball and you’re not getting everything right.
Of course, it’s possible to do everything wrong and still have money but if we narrow our focus down towards the lower working class well, You have to be a little bit more resourceful with your time and strategies.
And I would say that your bank account number more were closely is correlated with how “right” you are. Obviously I say this metaphorically and acridly As this is a stress relief entry.
mindfullness
^1 I need to be careful that I am treating mindfulness like treating correct posture. There are a range of positions and postures that are non damaging to the body. And likewise I think there are a number of levels of conscious thought. And yes I’m probably can actually be mentally damaging. It’s interesting to be an entity that has so much power over itself that can actually use its own mechanisms to damage itself consciously or subconsciously. And even weirder so that it can be it purposefully. I assume what’s most important to me is that I’m checking in with myself and making sure to be mindful and some respect? ’cause I can’t always be (or at all) monk level conscious, it’s just not how my human body works.
A place I find I’m not fully conscious is after I leave the shower because I’m still one kind of that animal cleaning grooing mode.
coward
My family is also their own set of cowardly, the relationship is associative so — so am I. One of the things that really bothers me is
talking at you
I can’t say much more ’cause I might have to do other stuff today tell us something that really is killing me is that all my family just talks at and expects you to be partner to every thought and next whim. It’s exhausting. I don’t want to be in my head that much and I don’t want to be in somebody else’s head that much. Is this wrong with me to think this way with my family?
writing to think
https://www.henrikkarlsson.xyz/p/writing-to-think Good thinking is about pushing past your current understanding and reaching the thought behind the thought.
In a fluid medium like thought or conversation, you can always go, “Well, I didn’t mean it like that” or rely on the fact that your short-term memory is too limited for you to notice the contradiction between what you are saying now and what you said 12 minutes ago.
By unfolding I mean “interrogating the conclusion to come up with an explanation of why it could be true.” What premises and reasoning chains leads to this conclusion? The explanation isn’t meant to prove that your conclusion was right. It is just a way of unpacking it.
These days, I would instead unfold a conclusion like this as a series of bullet points where I spell out the intuition behind my claim in a series of premises. In the case of Maud’s education, this would have looked something like this (note that this is not my current understanding but a reconstruction of what I thought eight years ago):
People have an intrinsic motivation to learn and it is important to not undermine that, which schools do
It is better to go deep on a few topics that you are passionate about rather than have a superficial understanding of a broad range of subjects you care little about
But you need to attend a school so you get socialized
Hence, we need to find a school that allows self-directed learning
I tend to go through my list of premises and assumptions and ask follow-up questions to myself, to further unfold my conclusion. To continue the example from above, I would take one of the premises and unfold it like this:
But you need a school so you get socialized
Curious: why?
Kids will get depressed and struggle to navigate workplaces, and so on, if they haven’t been exposed to society
Where can I read more about this? Are there any good studies?
Being in something like a school is important because humans are social animals. We pick up most of our skills and norms and so on by being immersed in a peer group
And what follows from this?
If we are shaped by our peer group, what would the ideal peer group look like?
The emotional tone of these questions is, in my head, lovingly curious; I’m not trying to put myself down. I’m trying not to kill ideas. I want to help them evolve and spill forth more insight. Often this dialogue ends with me changing my mind about several premises and coming to a different conclusion, but the original idea remains the seed—no less valuable for having been proven wrong. It takes creativity and boldness to leap out and form a conclusion, and the part that criticizes must understand how dependent it is on the part that throws ideas at the wall. It is often easier to criticize than it is to synthesize a new position.
Counterexamples are useful in two ways. Either you find a counterexample that a) proves one of the premises wrong but b) does not change your mind about the conclusion. Lakatos calls this a local (and non-global) counterexample. This means there is something wrong with your unfolding. Perhaps you need to change that part of the explanation? Or perhaps you can simply drop it, making the mental model simpler and more general? Local counterexamples help you improve your explanation and get a better understanding.
There is a scene in the last season of Breaking Bad that illustrates this. The main character, whatever his name was, is a teacher that starts a meth lab. This can be thought of as his conclusion (“I should get into the meth business”) and when asked to defend this decision he unfolds the claim by saying, “I need to support my family.” This is false. There are better ways for him to do that (he has an old friend who offers him money). That is a local counterexample. In the final season, he admits to himself: “I did it because it made me feel alive.” This doesn’t change his conclusion (he does not change his mind about the meth) but it gives him a deeper and more correct understanding of himself.

They’re super duper scared of the judgement. Instead of “Oh wow.. that’s new. We didn’t know about that then.. Wish we had..” You’re getting “YOU SURVIVED, DIDN’T YOU?!” Both come from the same place, they’re just based off of different feels. I think that’s something we should remember so we don’t repeat it later on down the road.

Guide expression or learning to be an eigenvalue so that you can decompose higher matrices into smaller ones as part of the actual learning process https://people.csail.mit.edu/asolar/SynthesisCourse/Lecture2.htm >In traditional machine learning, the focus has historically been on the second challenge. The trick has been to pick spaces of programs that are either extremely expressive (e.g. neural networks) so that there are many different ways to match any set of observations and the challenge is how to avoid over-training. Or to pick a space that is too restricted (e.g. SVMs) such that it is more or less impossible to match all the observations, but you assume some observations are wrong anyway, so you can trade off how many samples you match against other criteria that make it more likely that your solution will work well enough in general.
Seems to me that support vector machines try to generalize by under parameterizing and neural network generated by over parameterizing?
And then Milford said," that the real reason the government wants to jail homeless people is that we need as many people in houses as possible because that’s what’s propping up the growth in our economy. It sounds like a thing that would be true right? Source is — I made it up."
To test if two things are equal, it is best to recall the basic fact that if a=b, then a-b=0 . Thus, the best way to check if a=b is to take a-b and simplify it, and see if it goes to 0.

Instead of asking what can be defined and deduced from what is assumed to begin with, we ask instead what more general ideas and principles can be found, in terms of which what was our starting-point can be defined or deduced. Bertrand Russell, from Introduction to Mathematical Philosophy
To me the statement kinda means you start with some definitions and you find what fits them?
xx:xxam
Thinking itself is mathematical. So going through any math textbook (and of course especially this one) would help you in ways that are much more vital than finding solutions to “complex” problems.
OK so how I see it is that there’s this connection between the body and the mind where like the consciousness is just being carried along with everything else and you sometimes have to just let the animal be and that’s how you can like be in the moment right that’s how you can get into flow this can get the string of things so you take your consciousness and you you ring the animal to the thing and then you make him do the thing or you allow him to do the thing you don’t disrupt him right you just you just let it happen right you just watch so to speak i’m rushing this because there’s another thought i’m trying to think about but I can’t remember it
So like you can cultivate habits good and bad and cultivate connections with people and you can run on autopilot in some things if your brain is not stupid like mine. None of these have to be done consciously on most people I think I don’t know but you can do them consciously you can choose to do these things no matter what you can choose to break your heart right now by leaving your girlfriend you can choose to make yourself sad by snapping your own CD you know you have the power right now to do anything.Big right.? I mean of course we all have certain levels of will for certain actions right? I can’t cut my hand off! I don’t think no matter how hard I try will I ever be able to do it no matter how many pollution agendas I ever take. I can’t do it! But everyday things right like, say you catch yourself visiting a location more frequently than you thought you were, and you realize that it seems that you by accident havestarted a small repertoire with one of the clerks and anytime you can choose never to come back to that store ever again. Or you can choose to go to the store like you did yesterday
That’s the kind of thing I’m talking about so you want to be able to cultivate that to put you in a direction where you’re doing actionable goals and accomplishing steps to compound your actionable goals I don’t know how to do that because I’m stupid but that seems to be my idea of what living skillfully might look like.
You can even choose how you feel. I’m not suggesting that I have the ability to manifest like good feelings. No I’ve read **** where it’s like if you smile you’re more likely to be happy but like whatever man. I don’t really think that works something an event or an idea has to happen for me to like not be sad if I’m sad right like I have to choose to do something to change where I’m at the change my frame of mind to get out of that sadness. That’s a positive example
A negative example is you can choose to deny your feelings for someone because of fear of rejection or something like that. Depending on how intense it is you know you can hide some of it and how skilled you are at that will affect that right
I have something to do with logic structures and machine learning maybe?
It has something to do with logical systems that can be made with you know collections of logical axiom schemas rules, right and machine learning over over category category theory which can be represented graphically so you should probably look into machine learning over graphs you should probably actually get into graph theory and you should probably **** get into search algorithms and whatever maybe my hands should get better and I could do that ****

I learned how to estimate the height of a tree today. You take a stick the length from the center of your body to the tip of your fingers and hold it by your hand vertically so that it forms a perpendicular angle. You then try and match the tip of that as closely as you can to the top of the tree and your distance between the tree and the tip of the stick with me the same

1.1.28:
Exercise 1.1.26: Inverses of a Morphism
Certainly! Let’s go through the proof of Exercise 1.1.26 step by step to show that if ( g ) and ( g’ ) are both inverses of a morphism ( f ), then ( g = g’ ).
Given:
- ( f: X Y ) is a morphism in a category.
- ( g: Y X ) is an inverse of ( f ), so: [ f g = _Y g f = _X ]
- ( g’: Y X ) is another inverse of ( f ), so: [ f g’ = _Y g’ f = _X ]
Objective:
- Prove that ( g = g’ ).
Proof:
- Consider the composition ( g (f g’) ):
- By the associativity of composition, we can write: [ g (f g’) = (g f) g’ ]
- Since ( g f = _X ), we get: [ (g f) g’ = _X g’ = g’ ]
- Therefore: [ g (f g’) = g’ ]
- **Using the fact that ( f g’ = _Y ):**
- Substitute ( f g’ = _Y ) into the composition ( g (f g’) ): [ g _Y = g ]
- Therefore: [ g = g’ ]
- Verify the process:
- We have shown ( g (f g’) = g ) implies ( g = g’ ).
- This step essentially means we are using the fact that any element composed with an identity element remains unchanged: [ g _Y = g _X g’ = g’ ]
- Symmetric Argument:
- Similarly, we could consider the composition ( g’ (f g) ): [ g’ (f g) = (g’ f) g = _X g = g ]
- Since ( f g = _Y ), we have: [ g’ _Y = g’ g = g’ ]
Conclusion:
- Both ( g f = _X ) and ( f g’ = _Y ) imply that ( g = g’ ).
Thus, we have shown that if ( g ) and ( g’ ) are both inverses of ( f ), then they must be equal, proving that inverses in a category are unique.
Application to Groups:
- In the context of groups, each element has a unique inverse, which is a special case of the general proof in category theory. This means that if two elements in a group both serve as inverses to a given element, they must be identical, ensuring the uniqueness of inverses in groups.
