There’s a YouTube channel Midwest Magic Cleaning that does cleanups for hoarder houses, and generally has a lot of information about hoarding disorder.

Forcing a cleanup without the permission from the hoarder(s) can actually cause the hoarding to get worse, as it spikes the anxiety and lack of a feeling of control from the hoarder. And their response is typically, more hoarding

This is a tricky situation, and typically you need therapy to address the underlying mental illness before cleanup can take place

Sad

Although I’d expect the grammar bad for comedic effect

Rather than unintentionally

I wish this is how we arranged it. Makes so much more sense

Alas, my brain is too used to wed in the middle

Federated git hosting platform when?

Is this legit?

Oh my lord it is

Nah, the Tylenol is what did me in

Nomtser?

This reads as way too competent a plan and scheme for Trump’s admin.

I can’t decide which is scarier, that Trump’s admin is so incompetent they can’t build a ballroom, or competent enough to plan and build a project like this while hiding it from the public

I understand what you mean,

but it is technically the choice of the animal to eat more than they need on a regular basis

I like solving puzzles, and I have a knack for programming specifically

But it doesn’t have any built-in concept of users, write permissions, or authentication (except for commit signing)

Hosting an unauthenticated git repo would be the equivalent to an open ssh port with no password required

Not to mention collaborative things like issue tracking, PRs, forums, etc

Is this different from Shai Hulud 2?

Edit: the article was published November 24, so I’m pretty sure this is just Shai Hulud 2

I wonder if it’d be feasible to make a fediverse github

Python

It’s an amazing scripting language, and my goto for writing automation scripts.

It’s the most lenient of the 3 with dynamic typing and managed memory. It’ll let you learn the basics of reading / writing / running code as well as basic control flow and logic

C is also great to learn, as it teaches you how computers work at a fundamental level, but it’s more stuff to learn up front, and can lead to some very difficult to fix bugs

Java is good as an “application” language. Being memory managed like Python, but statically typed like C. Static typing makes it easier to manage larger code bases

I’m not aware of any class of problem that humans can solve that we don’t think are solvable by sufficiently large computers.

That is a really good point…hrmmm

My conjecture is that some “super Turing” calculation is required for consciousness to arise. But that super Turing calculation might not be necessary for anything else like logic, balance, visual processing, etc

However, if the brain is capable of something super Turing, I also don’t see why that property wouldn’t translate to super Turing “higher order” brain functions like logic…

It’s likely the same as English spelling. Just years and years of repeated exposure, and you eventually pick up most of it through osmosis

I don’t think the distinction between “arbitrarily large” memory and “infinitely large” memory here matters

Also, Turing Completeness is measuring the “class” of problems a computer can solve (eg, the Halting Problem)

I conjecture that whatever the brain is doing to achieve consciousness is a fundamentally different operation, one that a Turing Complete machine cannot perform, mathematically

Also also, quantum computers (at least as i understand them, which is, not very well) are still Turing Complete. They just use analog properties of quantum wave functions as computational components

I suspect Turing Complete machines (all computers) are not capable of producing consciousness

If that were the case, then theoretically a game of Magic the Gathering could experience consciousness (or similar physical systems that can emulate a Turing Machine)

Lox

Once i have a solid implementation, I wanna morph it into a custom scripting language for generating diagrams (a la graphviz or mermaid js)
