Всячина.

Теперь у меня есть очки. Они почему-то называются « air force », хотя не дают никаких суперспособностей. Видимо, надули меня. А ещё хочется вам посоветовать почитать книгу Питера Уоттса «Ложная слепота». Ей ещё МФ десятку влепил. Это такая твёрдая-твёрдая НФ с серьёзным упором на Н. Будущее, биология, импланты, киберы, расщепление сознания, чуждый интеллект, безрадостная судьба для всего ...

Just read it.

http://www.rifters.com/crawl/?p=791 -- PRISMs, Gom Jabbars, and Consciousness It’s not just about puzzle-solving, or reconciling conflicting inputs, either: look at all the illusions and mind tricks that depend on the brain performing exactly those kinds of operations unconsciously. Binocular rivalry, inattentional blindness, ventriloquism: incompatible views shown to each eye, buildings ...

Still combing through Peter Watts' blog: Fascinating popsci piece on synaesthesia over at the BBC. It turns out that your common garden-variety hearing-colors/seeing-music synaesthete is only the tip of the iceberg. There are people out there who can literally see time, as a multicolored ribbon winding about them in mid-air. There are folks who perceive letters or numbers as personality ...

Fun Neuro(pseudo?)science mlp...

PRISMs, Gom Jabbars, and Consciousness ( Hacker News thread ) is about some interesting thoughts on consciousness and torture. Of course, Dune fans will recall what a Gom Jabbar is. If various forms of pain,anguish, and torture lead to a more refined consciousness, I should be fairly transcendent at this point... okay, so maybe is pseudo science(or maybe I'm just a wuss and over exaggerate my ...

From Peter Watts' , possibly the best About The Author blurb ever: Peter Watts is generally a lot more optimistic than you might expect, considering. He has spent much of his adult life trying to decide whether to be a writer or a scientist, ending up as a marginal hybrid of both. He's won a handful of awards in fields as diverse as marine mammal science, video documentary, and science fiction....

Link blog: religion, christianity, de-conversion, politics

What Is Evil For The Darwinist, Ctd Andrew Sullivan posts some well-reasoned letters from readers on the question of what a non-theist would call "evil" (presumably responses to the old "how can you say God is evil when you don't have a basis for morality?" question). Bizarrely, he then describes them as showing "contempt" for religion. There's no pleasing some people. The letters are good, ...

He's a librarian and scholar from the dimension Tetherius - and he's also an informant, observing and researching other dimensions to expand the scope of Tetherius's knowledge.
