119 | Deleuze didn't understand quantum physics correctly but it turns out | ||
120 | that it doesn't matter because quantum physics doesn't have anything to | ||
121 | do with metaphysics. It's only that Uncertainty forces human beings | ||
122 | to adopt a de-centralizing de-totalizing Copernican mental shift. But | ||
123 | it doesn't even do it in the way that is most relevant to metaphysics. | ||
124 | There is also the de-centralizing de-totalizing Copernican mental | ||
125 | shift of INTUITIONIST MATHEMATICS. | ||
126 | |||
127 | Back to physics: Deleuze understood the main point: that particles | ||
128 | are merely virtual constructs while these "interaction events" are | ||
129 | the actual reality available to advanced physics -- the particles are | ||
130 | virtual constructs that exist only in the human 3D mental model which | ||
131 | is definitely NOT the same as the physical universe -- this is one of | ||
132 | those places where we see the difference -- but the physical universe in | ||
133 | making individual particles places where information access is limited | ||
134 | fundamentally because the boundary between one particle and another with | ||
135 | which it interacts isn't so much illusory as the only real thing, while | ||
136 | the non-boundary is illusory. | ||
137 | |||
138 | Quantum physics DOES imply a macro universe where macro assemblies | ||
139 | of particles also have limited access to information; but the actual | ||
140 | universe we see has EVEN MORE limitations on access to information, | ||
141 | they are much much stricter than Uncertainty, and therefore we see much | ||
142 | less information embedded in physical objects than Uncertainty allows | ||
143 | in its theoretical maximum. (Physics experiments can be set up so | ||
144 | that information is not lost; but life in general is always balancing | ||
145 | loss of information against energy expenditure.) Max Ent physics and | ||
146 | Bayesian statistics are mathematical/physical approaches to calculating | ||
147 | the information available at a given spacetime location. However, part | ||
148 | of the nature of quantum uncertainty AND max ent physics is that, from | ||
149 | WITHIN the system, the limitations apply to the observer and the limits | ||
150 | are self-referential in the sense that the limitations that apply to an | ||
151 | observer's disability to have information from other spacetime points | ||
152 | can include the disability to know which information is available! | ||
153 | I.e., the theory produces known unknowns. The fact that there are | ||

374 | |||
375 | The 21st century will be spent correlating the implications of | ||
376 | the physical limits of the speed and size of computations. | ||
377 | |||
378 | The human being as a computer system undering phase changes as the | ||
379 | computer gains the ability to represent different types of state -- or | ||
380 | to represent state with different performance characteristics -- through | ||
381 | acquisition of data structures copied from the environment -- OR from | ||
382 | internal processing and DISCOVERY of NEW data structures. | ||
383 | |||
384 | These data structures are PASSED BETWEEN HUMANS who learn them | ||
385 | implicitly and pick them up and play with them. But data structures | ||
386 | are unsafe when EXECUTED AS REASON and for this reason human beings | ||
387 | have SYSTEMS OF ACCESS CONTROL to HUMAN REASON both internal to their | ||
388 | minds (e.g., concepts of valid and invalid authorities) and external as | ||
389 | social environment. Society imposes economic exploitation which causes | ||
390 | evolutionary adapations to "bubble up" in ways that are UNPREDICTABLE | ||
391 | IN DETAIL (chaos theory) but according to evolutionary theory will tend | ||
392 | to produce EFFICIENT DISTRIBUTED COMPUTATION so that it will converge | ||
393 | to the computer systems we find most advanced as well as the biological | ||
394 | systems of generating and filtering novelty that we find most advanced | ||
395 | (except that the search space may have valleys etc). | ||
396 | |||
397 | Another system of access control is RUNNING IN EMULATION this is when | ||
398 | the individual learns enough about a foreign system to execute the steps | ||
399 | of its reasoning without however being allowed to reach any conclusions | ||
400 | that apply to the larger brain's data structures. There are two reasons | ||
401 | why humans cannot rely on this mechanism primarily. | ||
402 | |||
403 | First, EMULATION CAN BE JAILBROKEN; this cannot ever be as secure. | ||
404 | |||
405 | Second, more importantly, RUNNING IN EMULATION IS COMPUTATIONALLY MORE | ||
406 | EXPENSIVE. Even though CPUs and apparently also human beings have mechanisms | ||
407 | to optimize emulation, in human beings especially, these cannot obtain | ||
408 | "native" performance. Therefore, computational emulators (e.g., | ||
409 | learners of a second language) cannot "actually" perform as well as | ||
410 | computational originators (e.g., learners of a first language) if they | ||
411 | use the same underlying computational equipment for the same amount of | ||
412 | time. | ||
413 | |||
414 | But human beings do not all have the same underlying computational | ||
415 | equipment; and they do not all apply the same amount of time to | ||
416 | processing it. In the real world, running the other side in emulation | ||
417 | is something that more intelligent, more informed, or more adult human | ||
418 | beings attempt to do when interacting with less intelligent, informed, | ||
419 | or adult ones. Human beings may also believe they are running the other | ||
420 | side in emulation, when they are running a gross simplification; in | ||
421 | fact, they are running a gross simplification even when they run the | ||
422 | remote side natively, since they always still have to emulate the entire | ||
423 | remote environment(!) which is where the real problems start. | ||
424 | |||
425 | Non-portability of language between individuals is a major problem. | ||
426 | Before the internet, locality constraints on communications caused | ||
427 | portability to self-organize locally; but the internet has changed | ||
428 | communication patterns so that every person experiences a kind of | ||
429 | cosmopolis without totality. Every experience is a scene from a virtual | ||
430 | city which is a construct only of that experience; each event and | ||
431 | corresponding city co-singular; co-existing only once without object | ||
432 | permanence. | ||
433 | |||
434 | One problem is the human tendency to imagination, roleplay, etc., | ||
435 | causes human beings to pretend communication incompatibilities are | ||
436 | not real. Human beings must surely have evolved under circumstances | ||
437 | where perceived universality of linguistic forms was vastly more | ||
438 | common than it is today in the adult internet-connected world, though | ||
439 | perhaps less common than it is today in the world of the schoolchild | ||
440 | or university student or professor. | ||
441 | |||
442 | The professors may not make the same naive/incorrect excuses as children | ||
443 | for failing to communicate; their perspectives will be more realistic; | ||
444 | the university system as a whole is constrained in certain ways to | ||
445 | succeed in transmitting information; but insofar as these transmissions | ||
446 | fail, are the reasons understood from a rational information-theoretic | ||
447 | perspective? Or is it a primate emotion static control program designed | ||
448 | to regulate subordinate behavior emotionally, amplifying the causal | ||
449 | force of the intentions of individuals positioned in social hierarchies | ||
450 | such that their anger generates fear in others? Or is it a whole series | ||
451 | of task-activated network programs, each one separately influenced | ||
452 | by its own emotional context? Perhaps they are constrained by | ||
453 | environmental demands to understand these failures operationally | ||
454 | |||
455 | |||
456 | The task-activated networks seem to be the neurological place of | ||
457 | mental compartmentalization; and the ADHD don't shut off the DMN when | ||
458 | activating TANs. We still "see" the task when others are absorbed | ||
459 | "in" the task. Of course, in order to influence the DMN, it would | ||
460 | have to be activated. The TANs feed back into the DMN in ADHD, which | ||
461 | allows the ADHD brain to generate totalizing connectivities by putting | ||
462 | information from disparate parts of universe into the same local | ||
463 | computational system; where for the non-ADHD these same components, | ||
464 | though contained within one BRAIN, are not connected into the same | ||
465 | integrated computational system; the TANs are prevented from feeding | ||
466 | back into the DMN which allows mental compartmentalization to prevent | ||
467 | information from one controlled system to produce interference in | ||
468 | another controlled system when each controlled system is controlling the | ||
469 | same physical human being with a different control algorithm. | ||
470 | |||
471 | In other words, the DMN or the big picture understanding does not | ||
472 | help with, but interferes with, TAN activity downstream of power | ||
473 | in the social grid, because of the way in which this activity is | ||
474 | structured to depend on human beings as removable components, | ||
475 | keeping the environment highly-controlled. General intelligence is | ||
476 | not useful in highly-controlled environments until they begin to | ||
477 | break down. High-efficiency local computation requires discarding | ||
478 | global information in order to maximize local connectivity of the | ||
479 | processed information and thus processing speed. (Principle of | ||
480 | cache locality.) So as optimization proceeds, the big picture is | ||
481 | squeezed out of every local environment; except SOME privileged local | ||
482 | environment has to be preserved in order to manage the organism's | ||
483 | interaction with _environments_ themselves; this is the executive. | ||
484 | The organism has a consciousness of multiple discrete environments; | ||
485 | each environment controlled by some local control system; each local | ||
486 | control system incorporating its own different own model of human | ||
487 | emotion and behavior as necessary to sustain its specific local | ||
488 | constraints | ||
489 | |||
490 | Emotions are the foundational social control levers in humans. Not | ||
491 | life/reproduction directly, as it would be in the case of domestic | ||
492 | plants; but emotion/physical-reproduction-of-imaginary-will plays | ||
493 | the same structural role, allowing animalia the meta-evolutionary | ||
494 | advantage of evolving without biological death; emotional sampling with | ||
495 | differential reproduction of imaginations replaces eukaryotic sampling | ||
496 | with differential reproduction of offspring in the information-gathering | ||
497 | social super-organisms of mammalia). | ||
498 | |||
499 | In a school, a student convincing their teacher that they do not belong | ||
500 | in the space to which they are assigned is NOT sufficient to liberate | ||
501 | the student from the space; only a non-local authority assigning | ||
502 | them to some other space can liberate the student from the local | ||
503 | space. The student having the level of understanding of the system | ||
504 | that would cause them to make this conclusion correctly tends to make | ||
505 | the student even less able to perform in a space where they do not | ||
506 | belong; if the student instead internalizes a false simplified local | ||
507 | model in which the possibility of mis-spacialization is impossible by | ||
508 | construction, then the student may have a better chance of passing | ||
509 | through the filters imposed by the environment for reaching a more | ||
510 | appropriate spacialization. If the student internalizes a more | ||
511 | realistic, more complete, but externally-referencing (non-local) | ||
512 | model, then compatibility issues are likely in communication with | ||
513 | their teacher; if compatibility exists between the teacher and the | ||
514 | student, then the compatibility issue will exist between the teacher and | ||
515 | administration; or else the administration will have issues with the | ||
516 | school board; or the electoral system; or else the local municipality | ||
517 | itself will drain tax funding since diaspora from other schools will | ||
518 | collect locally. At every possible avenue where the "exception" could | ||
519 | "bubble up", there will be an incompatible interface, because the | ||
520 | system attempts to impose a constraint that exceptions are handled | ||
521 | non-locally. All biological systems impose this constraint because of | ||
522 | how it produces a superorganism that is more intelligent and robust than | ||
523 | if its individual components were individually intelligent and robust. | ||
524 | Advanced decentralized computing systems also impose this constraint; it | ||
525 | is a foundational principle of Erlang. | ||
526 | |||
527 | Another principle important probably is that in order to learn a lot | ||
528 | of things you ought to be independently generating them yourself; | ||
529 | the fact that someone has generated something and transmitted it to | ||
530 | someone else does does not mean that they transmitted the generator; | ||
531 | transmitting the generator between people may have more to do with | ||
532 | copying the environment in which the independent generation occurred; | ||
533 | mathematics provides students an environment in which to independently | ||
534 | re-discover the fundamental theorems; but mathematical education outside | ||
535 | of universities does not seem to understand this principle even in | ||
536 | schools that feed top universities. Students are fed the theorems to | ||
537 | memorize and use without even being fed the raw material from which | ||
538 | the theorems were originally derived. Thus they are optimizing to | ||
539 | demonstrate a false affectation of mathematical education. Gresham's | ||
540 | Law again. Erlang illustrates the structure of passing the generator as | ||
541 | well as the data. | ||
