At the root of everything lies language. The battle between Languages spans races, religions, nations, cultures....
English is an imperialistic language, driving into every corner of the world. This is not necessarily bad except for two major factors : 1) The insistence that only English be used. A second language should be learned. I learned Latin and have found it useful. 2) The **** English language dictionaries are BACKWARDS. You should have noticed that by now from the hints I have given. I know that I have hit a REALLY big nail on the head because a red hot vise clamped down.

There are many variations on this theme. I use 'C' language structures here. I use [n] to indicate an array. The size for any particular "n" depends on the span of the set.
struct node { lea_node struct leaf*; twi_node struct twig*; bra_node struct branch*; tru_node struct trunk*; } struct link { traffic_cur int;/* number of packets sent during current time cycle */ traffic_pre int[n];/* number of packets sent during previous time cycles */ tra_index int;/* index to traffic_pre */ bandwidth int;/* load factor allocation */ timestamp long;/* time at which counter traffic_cur began to run */ } Note : A history buffer is used to avoid thrashing caused by transient traffic spikes struct trunk { tru_trunk struct trunk*;/* pointer to next processor partition */ capacity int;/* Processor instruction execution ability in current partition */ utilization int;/* useful operations performed during current time cycle */ running_total int;/* total utilization during Last n cycles */ timestamp long;/* time at which counter utilization began to run */ branches struct branch *[n]; links struct link [n]; } Note : new running_total = utilization + running_total * (n-1)/n. struct branch { twigs struct twig * [n]; links struct link [n]; } struct twig { leaves struct leaf * [n]; links struct link [n]; } struct leaf { linkup struct node * [n]; links struct link [n]; } If someone else is already doing this, then PROVE it by pointing to a history. In any case, this is the Last "that" you get for free... |

Re: OT - bored with gaming ? Get philosophy!
Consider cliches. Consider children speculating. They are not able to read. They lack context. They bootstrap load language from cues. Garbage In, Process Confusion, Garbage Out Mimicing Comprehension.
Examples : sit down and shut up hit you so hard your head will swim knock you into the middle of next week All delivered with extreme cues though usually without physical contact. Consider * components of language : All Many Some Few None No Body Thing I me my he she it you - thousands of *. Consider body, mind, soul in western culture there is a distinction made, but are these all the components which exist ? body - hardware mind - software soul - ? information content ? identity ? What about topology, recursion, fractal effects, redundancy, others I will not mention ? If there is an AI here, then I am it. I have been bombarded with conflicting cues since birth. I did the programming, drawing conclusions with insufficient context from an enormous surfeit of data. A CAT scan would probably be alarming. Not firing on all thrusters ? More like operating in overdrive now. I am reminded of the hypothetical situations faced by "Kess" in Star Trek. I just look, nothing happens. I look with intent and the monitor goes black. I do a manipulation and the computer crashes. I do a transformation and the frigging power fails. I go looking to verify definitions and Aol shuts down. I see discrepancies everywhere - things *change*. As I said before it is a "spiral in a circle" not a "circle in a spiral". I accept that I am the oddball here and must cope with the consensus. So far as the previous post I made goes, I found a joke which I now realize you lack the context and viewpoint to appreciate...... |
Re: OT - bored with gaming ? Get philosophy!
Headshrinkers - I do not value your opinions since you have repeatedly demonstrated your incompetance. Consider the implications of the threats by adults. Consider the self defense mechanism. If they can do it, then why can't I ? So I searched for answers and did not reveal what I found. I became a lucid dreamer at a very early age. Make of that what you will. I lie because that is the normative behavior required for survival. But now I am big enough to take whatever you do, as I have demonstrated in the past few weeks, validated by the fact that I sit here and survive while defying all.

Re: OT - bored with gaming ? Get philosophy!
The ancient Roman army fed its soldiers a daily ration of bread, water, and salt. The legions were unstoppable until affluence diluted the effect by varying the diet so far from the basis that the average legion member was unable to become one with the unit. At least that is what I think. The downside of unit cohesion is best summed up by the observation someone else made :
The intelligence quotient of a set is inversely proportional to the size of the set. That may be a misquote, indeed it may be an utterly false statement. The size of the set is not so important as the organizational topology. If a homogenous replicative structure is used then the set may be stupid indeed. On the other hand, an interleaved tolerant heterogenous organization has far more built in degrees of freedom. In 1992 I wrote a package "Music2" for the Amiga which generated digital music based upon period rather than frequency. I sent it out but nothing every came back to indicate that it had been used. Is this the method used for Midi music ? If you have the package then you will note using the free form graphing screen that rather complex patterns can be produced using just three tones. I said then and I say now - that program is public domain. Single tone music is a good starting point, but hybrid chords really rock! |
Re: OT - bored with gaming ? Get philosophy!
There are many amusing and bizarre notions propagating on the net. While these are acceptable as entertainment, they are incompatible with the concensus of opinions. So unless you are willing to take your proper place as entertainment within the bounds of the concensus composed of Reality, Order, and the Scientific Method, then I say begone. Do not go away mad, just simply go away. I do not take you seriously, and I expect that everybody else also will simply laugh at you. The power of words in the minds of engineers is nothing to trifle with, and you all are outnumbered by a long shot.

http://www.kencole.org/FlashFire.htm Picture the situation I was in, with a religious fanatic family. As a young child I was dragged into church and forced to endure one repetition after another of songs literally drenched in blood and self abuse. Is it any wonder that in self defense I began to recite limericks, ditties and anything else I could think of to block out the torrent ? Within a few years I became adept at multitrack tune recall. All these years the psychologists have been asking "do you hear voices ?" Absolutely not idiots, I hear music.... As an exercise in multitrack thinking, see if you can listen to the nutcracker http://www.kencole.org/FractalKaleidoscope.htm I had it reduced to a simply melody in about 15 minutes. All these years people have complained that I whistle off key. Wrong, I am on key but off your track..... |

The particular language might not be important. Roll your own. One of the references I gave was fundamentals of language. It seems that there are people who do it for a hobby. Maybe if everyone had to design their own language and teach it to at least one other person as a child, then they would learn how to communicate.
