Geometry, Physics, Philosophy and Politics With Dianna and Elizabeth And Friends

This is dense. It looks grim at the beginning, but it gets better, ... I promise!



At around 6:09 I got strong sense of deja-vu watching this. You would think one would have a strong sense of deja-vu all the time whilst one watched a video of oneself, but think again!
















Somebody with some photo-editing software might enjoy pasting those into a panorama, ...

There is more to this story, however. I distinctly recall making a video in which I explained why I was going to try and find the line which goes counter-clockwise (mapwise!) up the hill. I thought I had said I would think about physics and the meaning of the word "orient" and that this was as a result of a conversation I had had with "an intelligent man", and some thoughts about negative charge anti-symmetry. Was it because I insulted Benjamin Franklin earlier today? Maybe! Listen to this:

So did that video I made somehow get erased, or was it a false-memory that I invented myself, or am I schizophrenic? I don't know! I would need to speak to other people who know other things, ... Another part of the story involves the arrest of a man by the Guardia Nacional. I've never seen so many men with such big guns arresting a single person. It was remarkable!

This was in The Guardian: David Turner obituary , only eight days after I posted  David Turner Talking About Sixty Years of Functional Programming History : This talk was given in London in 2017: See  Turner, D. A. "Some History of Functional Programming Languages" also  John Hughes - Why Functional Programming Matters  and David MacQueen's talk at ICFP 2015 in  Numberphile - Sophie Maclean on the Catalan Numbers . At 10:30 This whole discussion abut combinator reduction is especially interesting. I didn't know Arthur Norman had tried building hardware for combinator machines. I'll look that up: maybe start here A.C. Norman  Faster combinator reduction using stock hardware  in LFP '88: Proceedings of the 1988 ACM conference on LISP and functional programming. At 26:25 on the ISWIM virtual machine implemented in the PAL compacting garbage collector?! This work Reynolds and others did was at MIT in Masecheusetts and Argonne National Laboratory Illinois. Did

... and his posterity too? See  On Communication in Linear Time And Hypertext And The Gospel of Sophia . So it looks like El Cielo of the cistine [sic!😂] chapel is not the limit anymore.  I think I just met one of his descendents. A guy called Versailles Toledo who is from Chiapas. That might explain the murals I mention in my recent untitled post , just before the post mentioning this video. I also just took this photo of Rafael Gonzales, born here in Tecate, B.C., who told me about a spring near here called Agua Fría , half way from Tecate to Loma Tova , where, a few decades ago, people used to go to have barbecues and stuff, but now he thinks it may be private land. If someone reading this has a Facebook account, please write a link to this post onto his FB page. To see why I took the photo, look at his T-shirt and the horse-shoes and ponder this: Subscribe to BeatrizER and her video(s?) about mathematical logic, ... Sounds like Edith (II) Rix has been online all the time, ...
