Angela Collier and Sage the Bad Naturalist Talking About the UK Government's "Protect and Survive" Pamphlet

You can read the 1966 version here. Don't worry, they have much better plans now, otherwise they wouldn't dare try getting into a nuclear war with Russia, would they?

This is a really good example of why people need to organise themselves to meet these contingencies, not to expect the United Nations, your government or Bill Gates to do it all for you. See Searle on Consciousness and Richard Wolff interviewed by Afshin Rattansi.

Who needs reliable social media? 


My comment:

I don't understand why the UN doesn't organise reliable media and telecommunications systems. Because it's not profitable for them? The ISO/IEC is based in Geneva, if they were properly funded they would be producing reference implementations of basic protocols which UN member states the ICC could use to securely communicate and which UN appointed officials could use and which could be used to make UN officers less vulnerable to sanctions.

John Searle's Chinese Room Argument

He's fed up with talking about this. I used to have a copy of the little book he wrote called Minds, Brains & Science. Apparently the AI at Google has read it too and gets it completely: How does stuff like this happen? Most people won't even notice what I'm saying even if I point out that the Google search changed the title. The book was really called Minds, Brains & Science , not Minds, Brains & Programs . (But maybe that was a later edition or something?) I asked Google and it said: John Searle's book Minds, Brains and Science did not become "Minds, Brains & Programs"—rather, they are two separate, distinct works published a few years apart: "Minds, Brains, and Programs" (1980): A landmark academic paper published in the journal Behavioral and Brain Sciences. This is where Searle first introduced his famous Chinese Room Argument to challenge the concept of "strong AI". "Minds, Brains and Science" (1984): A shor...

Tensor Fields and Simplicial Complexes

Listening to Freya Holmér last night I started to get glimmers of an idea I had long ago about how to represent vector spaces in computational processes using this recursive abstract type :  abstype 'a point = POINT   of {getx :  'a vector,       diff :  'a point -> 'a point,       move :  'a point -> 'a point,       scale : 'a -> 'a point,       proj :  'a point -> 'a} with    fun new i (op +) (op -) (op * ) dot =    let fun self x =  POINT       {getx = x,        move = fn (POINT pr) =>           (self (x + (#getx pr))),        diff = fn (POINT pr) =>          self (x - (#getx pr)),        scale = fn i =>          (self (x * i)),        proj = fn (POINT pr) =>     ...
