To the stone people...

Every summer i take a bike ride to see how my stone people are doing. Not very well, I am afraid. Nobody cares to restore past glory. Well it is mid June. Let us hope. The view might attract....

 

Three in a row...

  Yuval Harari is suggesting that since the French revolution all movements used combinations of only two of the three -Liberté, Égalité, Fraternité. None managed to blend all three. Lots of easy truths in this... How does SCOTUS work on these? how does one juggle the three balls...

Probable there is always a third...rail.

difference

Fifty years ago I jotted. The essential difference between humans  and computers is that the computer does not create its own problems.

Maybe it was a simple joke or a deeper foresight.  It was the dawn of our current age.- What computer existed fifty-year ago?  Programed in machine  or assembly language...

Searched the internet for philosophical definitions of difference. See below. Wonder,  when using these system ,what is the difference today between humans and computers?

Madhva’s Fivefold Differences (Dvaita Vedanta)

In the pluralist tradition of Hindu philosophy, thinker Madhvacharya argued that absolute differences are the very fabric of reality. He defined exactly five types of differences (Pancha-bheda): [1]

• Between the individual soul and God (the Supreme).
• Between one individual soul and another.
• Between the individual soul and physical matter.
• Between God and physical matter.
• Between one piece of physical matter and another

Is there a reversal? since computers can hallucinate? who is the God now?
