Doing versus Knowing

Software development is like math, except it is ugly and complicated.

Validating Assumptions

Reality is the greatest authority.

Gifts of the Future

Architects are those people who when asked to design a woolley caterpillar start sketching out butterflies.

True Nature of the Artificial

What is the difference between artificial and natural?

Is there such a thing as artificial?

Or is there only mimicry hiding the artificial object's true nature?

Expansive Thoughts

Clarification

Illumination

Elegance

On the Nature of Man

Man is not intelligent.

The Universe is intelligent.

Man is merely verbose.

Symmetry

If gravitational fields are warpage in the 3 spacial dimensions, what dimensions are electro-magnetic fields a warpage of?

Are there three dimensions whose warpage constitutes an electrical-magnetic field, and a different three dimensions whose warpage constitutes a nuclear force field?

What are the ratios of gravitational field strength to electro-magnetic, and to nuclear fields.

How many dimensions does current String Theory require?

How curled up are those extra dimensions?

Stability and Discontinuity

If there is a god-function x-exists then:

* Membership in the class of x-things arises from the set of strange attactors in the x-exists function. The strange attractors of x-exists are the stable states of x.

* The turbulance points of x-exists are the discontinuities between state changes and between being and not being, between being one thing or another, between being now or then.

Human Progress

There is some twisted irony in HR systems that demand employees fill out self-evaluation web pages like self-service check out lanes in big box stores.  What does the 'H' stand for again?

Letting Go

Doubt and change.

The "god" Dimension

"Emotions are analog, thought is digital."

String Theory posits 10 dimensions - 3 spatial - 1 temporal - 6 assumed spatial

What if some of the other dimensions are unlike the three spatial dimension in almost, but not exactly, the same way that the time dimension is unlike the three spatial dimensions?

Time-Space is now seen as relativistic. That which is measured and experienced is dependent upon the observer. The observer is part of the observed system.

What if the cosmic consciousness is a dimension.

What-is inhabits location, time, and cosmic consciousness.

What-is travels along a multi-dimensional path of locations varying over time, with more or less intensity of awareness.

Is there a dimension of point of view? Is this the view from the Twilight Zone?
