  • Movement is the essence, object – contextual

    Some try hard to build something… others try harder to destroy. In any case, everyone moves. Movement is the essence, object – contextual.

  • The skill of skeptics

    Why is skepticism preferable to dogmatism? Because recognizing flaws allows room for enhancement. The entire aim of existence is to continually progress, so that aligns seamlessly.

    The skill of skeptics is not being simplistic or unwise. You don’t question everything; you focus on key facts. Dismissing thoroughly researched and verified information is just irrational.

    Acknowledge that you can’t know everything. Don’t attempt to be “overly intelligent.” You truly can’t grasp every detail; just let it be.

    Sometimes individuals hold onto incorrect beliefs simply because they fear losing their investment. Release it, always.

  • Neuron is not transistor

    “The main unit of a biological computer is a nerve cell, or neuron, which is internally very different from a (computer chip) transistor.

    Of course, the code through which neurons exchange information resembles the code based on a sequence of impulses used in digital computing machines, but an individual neuron is a much more sophisticated unit for processing information than a transistor.

    Instead of just three connections with other components, a single neuron can have tens of thousands. A neuron operates more slowly than a transistor, but it has achieved much more in terms of miniaturization, which has been the main focus in the electronics industry over the past two decades.

    This is easily evidenced by the fact that the human brain contains approximately 10 billion neurons, whereas a skull could only hold a few hundred transistors.” – R.Dawkins

  • About ai… I can’t explain this to a computer

    As about ai… To be honest I barely use it, although of course as a computers fan I know tech news well and have tried almost everything.

    The thing is, I express not the emotions of a computer but my own. I feel… these things can’t be expressed in words. Words are another level. Can you translate music into words? Then why do you want to hear it?

    To do what I must do, I need to try different notes, different pieces, to feel the final result — that yes, it is it, that it solidifies and affirms my feeling, my emotion, my way there. Experience and tryings.

    It’s hard to explain this to a computer; it’s way too abstract and complicated to be just a couple of prompts.

    In this regard, I would prefer a wider variety of sound synthesizers and image effects over direct artificial generators.

    The same goes for texts and thoughts… a computer cannot express my thoughts, my view and understanding of the world, my perspective.

    So far, the only place where I use neural networks is for correcting the grammar of my imperfect English…

  • extremes of concentrated capitalism or ultra-socialism

    Capitalism, while natural, needs socialist elements to balance chance and luck. A healthy system combines capitalism’s natural exchange and entrepreneurial spirit with socialism’s distribution, avoiding the extremes of concentrated capitalism or ultra-socialism.

  • The larger the crowd, the dumber it gets

    Democracy… sooner or later, the crowd will elect a complete fool to lead… reflection.

    The larger the crowd, the dumber it gets; the bigger the state, the more prone it is to mistakes and deception.

    Leadership is better entrusted to the best people with experience, the most honest and intelligent, with an unconditionally clean reputation.

    But the essence lies in size—small communities are more stable than large ones.

    Redistribution of responsibility and loss of signal…

    With the human as we used to know, any large country is, by definition, prone to collapse.

    In the end, small structures will prevail, where the head of the community answers directly to the people who are nearby.

    The fragmentation of countries into smaller entities is inevitable.

  • Survival is stability

    The secret to success in both evolution and survival is stability.

    This is why forming prohibitive measures is less effective than adopting an open and positive approach, as maintaining prohibitions can lead to exhaustion over time.

    Good scenario when you suggest nice and healthy alternative instead of prohibiting something.

  • When a large monopoly is formed

    People use big tech monopolists not because of their quality, but primarily because of their monopoly. 

    When a large monopoly is formed, ideally, it should be divided into a universally accessible and neutral service, similar to a library or basic healthcare in developed countries.

  • Intervals

    In the nineties, the world basked in prosperity, but now we find ourselves amidst a deepening recession. 

    The cycles in life imply that prosperity will return, only to be followed by another downturn. 

    These recessions are not merely periods of hardship but serve as vital intervals for accumulating strength, paving the way for dynamic renewal and introspective reevaluation. 

    Through these ebbs and flows, we undergo a process of profound reflection and purification.

  • Limit

    By default the internet constantly keeps you in tension. Too much noise.

    One can’t focus deeply while in tension because real signals come with some space around them. Watch the dosage.

  • It’s not the theory of the dying Internet

    It’s not the theory of the dying Internet but  the demise of individual corporate giants that grew excessively and at any cost, leading to their downfall. Refer to the death of these overgrown players instead

    Despite the challenges, people will continue to rely on the Internet and adapt to its ever-changing landscape.

  • Style… Understanding what’s achieved

    Speaking about creation of art, very often you have to create something modern and awesome, not just in the way you like it… it’s a subtle issue… to achieve something truly cool, you must also comprehend objective reality, not just what’s in your head… something like that.

    For example, in fashion, not just some random crap your brain said you somehow but filtered at the peak of what is acceptable and balanced.

    By harshly removing all unnecessary elements, a solid foundation will expand

  • Helpless, bandit, intelligent and stupid

    “Cipolla divides people into four categories: helpless, bandit, intelligent and stupid.

    In any normal interaction between two people, he contends, the helpless person suffers a loss while the other gains.

    The bandit exacts a benefit while levying a loss on the other.

    The intelligent person gains while enabling the other person also to gain.

    The defining trait of the stupid person is that he gains nothing while obliging the other to take a loss.” – wsj.com

  • Misunderstanding of power

    Cult of power (The concept of “cult of power,” for instance, such as one that fuels fascism, is an outdated idea that reflects reactive behavior. ) is an archaic concept, indicative of reactive behavior. All this masculinity, conservative, closed-minded perspectives…

    Real power is soft, flexible, and open-minded, with a balanced disposition. True value does not need to show off itself.

    Openness allows for acceptance and improvement, while closedness signifies rigidity and is often a reaction rather than a natural progression.

    Why weak minds go that way… rude power is first what comes when trying to understand power, meanwhile true concept actually goes deeper and wider.
