If you have synesthesia in color association or otherwise and you are unhappy about that simply exercise your free will to eliminate the weirdness.

I have colour synesthesia :).
Something like 40% of people have it in a small way.

If you’d like to check whether you are in that 40%, ask yourself “What colour is Wednesday?”

You will either have no idea what this question even means, or you will have a specific colour that comes to mind. The latter are those with at least a touch of colou…[Read more]

The pervasiveness of the Islamic agenda in our institutions of higher learning…cough, cough…is shocking even to a cynic. At least this one…

And even as i have for a long time thought people can be programmed with any beliefs i used to think it required early indoctrination. Nope..

10:01 – In order to avoid the p…[Read more]

Thanks Reg!!!

I’d be happy to pay you tuesday for a hamburger today. In the meantime i would be obliged to bum a banana or two.

Yes the article about AI was sophomoric.

Yes, i have no bananas. I have no bananas today.

Thanks, Reg 🙂

Belated thanks, Reg!

I have been pondering consciousness in biological and nonbiological. Was chatting with Meta recently and some of my ideas are championed by scientists. Good luck having an original idea.

My gut is that replication is a necessary ingredient for emergence of consciousness biologically but not otherwise. Instead closed systems are required that…[Read more]
