Then neg it like anything else you refuse to believe.

Everything you believe you know is a borrowed lie and I am your undeceiver.
Resistance controls the rate of flow of any potential. That you cannot parse English without an exact match of phrase is kind of ironic.
I guess when arguing convention I shouldn’t be too casual with my own language.
Entropy is the distribution of potential over negative potential. In every case. Period. All the other words we use describe how this happens in a specific context (thermal or information).
Can you find an established definition that can be more succinctly regarded as this?
Also I like insisting it is a phenomenon of existential reality, not a conceptual tool of the human mind.
It isn’t though.
Entropy is a fancy word for potential distribution over negative potential. Negative potential is the “surface area” over which potential may distribute. The “number of possible arrangements” casually fits into this, yet misses some unintuitive possibilities, like the resistive variance or other characteristics not preempted by who ever constructed the intellectual model.
Idealists insist entropy is a scalar state resolve of delta probability in their model. They are self deceived. Entropy is the existential tendency for potential to distribute toward equilibrium.
As long as boffins can throw away results that do not correlate, they can insist it is anything they like.
A generation is only ~15 years (~10 in ancient times). Long enough for the children to reinvent or reframe the problems of their parents.
“It isn’t an illusion though” I could have said more clearly.
There is this word “culpable” which means having something to do with anything responsible for a thing. Anyone who is not culpable is innocent. Innocent is everyone by default until through an act of will (or negligence) makes them otherwise.
> harm
Destructive interference. “Egregious” would mean such that the potential of one’s existential being is diminished (reducing one’s ability to survive for instance.) Each generation does struggle with maintaining a reasonable definition of these terms, and that reflects such generation’s scope of morality. The significance of properties are one such for instance.
> Persons
Any actor, either individual or embodiment. There is this phrase which dates back to ancient times “of one man” (it is used in the Old Testament) which means any who act as a part of a body of power. This does not include civilians, though it does apply to any acting as an instrument or extension of will.
Morality may absolutely be judged, and “culpability by will or neglect” is how that is done. Saying otherwise only suggests you do not believe anyone should be held accountable for their actions (in this life.)
That other stuff you say is your personal confusion. While you are quite right this responsibility should not be taken lightly (only by those whose life is sworn to be determinant upon truth before law). Law is the civilizing accord.
In modernity there is a line of life swears between soldiers (of a standing army), police forces, judges, and political figures to discharge duties in accordance with a written law (body of power.)
This may be abused or corrupted making those themselves culpable, yet those who are in alignment with integrity are acting in accordance with lawful state. These are the terms of civilization.
Do not allow dysfunction or corruption of one instance detract from another for these are the terms and principles by which all of civilization is upheld. Without this we are savages.
The study suggests morality would be a steadily declining slope throughout this time rather than a periodic wave if it were true. This is not so. It merely swings over shorter periods of generations.
We have gone through times of slavery, racism, imperialism, war, reclamation and so on. All of these things cause moral reflection and transformation.
Just last week some so-called philosopher suggested the best way to communicate with aliens would be to start killing them, and many HN commentators agreed, despite this pundit not really know where things should go after that. It’s like C Columbus all over again. I’m pretty sure the world reeled for some generations from that one (Montaigne).
I think those conducting this research are poor students of actual history.
Objective morality: it is immoral and wrong to harm the innocent. Ever.
Everything else (sex, drugs, concern for each other, regard for our differences, etc.) has a realm of “subjective relativism“. These can be difficult to plot.
Harming the inculpable for personal, political, or convenience in any form at any time is absolutely wrong and this attitude changes periodically throughout time.
As a student of history I can say twelve million data points scattered over several millennia does not give a grounded scale where lives of generations vacillate in merely decades.
Shall I start with Gilgamesh? Things could only improve. Hammurabi? They did improve. Cyrus the great? His fore-bearers ethnic cleansed and salted the earth so nothing could grow for f-sake. He was a civilizing force.
Europe? Reformation? Christians burned each other alive.
America? We’re now back to being more racially charged than we were 30 years ago (which was objectively better than 50 years before that.
Obviously times do change, we are rising and falling and we must be vigilant for this happens within our lifetimes.
The craftsmanship is excellent and it is gratifying to hold.
The Universe is potential resolving into state through entropic dilation in the moment of now. Not independent state built up into the Universe as classical physics has always taught us.
The emptiness and impermanence is potential distribution. Might as well have given the Nobel Prize to a buddhist.
For “advanced” anything, you have to go to the source.
Once upon a time Christianity was a minority of counter culturalists (“heretics” of their day) then came the popularizations (over 1,000 years). And then these were the MAJORITY (not a minority). At this time the apparatus of power inherited the mantle of Christian identity (popes, pope emperors, warrior popes, etc.) in this time, Christians mass murdered other Christians over the technical details of their beliefs (reformation). A dark time for everyone. Today, many Christians feel a threatened minority (maybe a self imposed passive aggressive attitude.)
In art, A Brave New World depicts a form of neo-liberalism as casting once conventional values as “heretical.”
Beware the changing tides of times for they conceal the dangerous shoals of unforgiving reefs.
Today I am a heretic of convention proclaiming everything you know about the mind is a lie, that the voices in your head are disembodied others, and you are thought controlled!
What would come of a political platform which outed the dream of America as a borrowed, bankrupt lie? One too big to fail, which lumbers on at the expense of the lives of others?
What might come of requiring three years of civil service before earning the right to vote?
What might our world look like if authority and responsibility was bestowed in equal measure, beginning with citizens themselves?
Either way, do not be a waste of your humanity.
Yes, this is a chronic dysfunction.
I like to say people do not reason, they look for reasons, or satisfying stories to fill the void of ignorance.
Voltaire rolls in his grave as his dream for an age of reason devolves into an orgy of reasons.
Willpower is very real, only the character given is false.
I never got the memo that it is some “finite resource some have and others don’t.” Is this some pointless perspective from the occult pseudoscience of psychology predating this trendy topic?
Willpower is very real, a greater strength in some than others, and it certainly can be developed (and undermined.) Why is the topic and definition inverted as provided? And why does the topic assume everyone sees it that way from the start?
The will is certainly a muscle of the mind which can be strengthened and “exhausted” sure, yet there is an interesting trick that those having superior determination of resolve my leverage. Meaning and intention in the mind can be canceled out, giving will a seemingly archimedean leverage.
Just as the mind may be tricked to give up its goods (coerced or exploited through “reverse psychology”) the mind may be stupefied to exploit adamantium resolve.
One can literally make themselves too stupid and stubborn to give in.
This in addition to how long one can “hold out” before exhausting what resolve one does have.
Hack the mind! It is your most precious instrument.
We are not alone in our own minds. Everything you believe about mental health and our humanity is a lie.
You are so stuck in your lies you think your refusal to believe is the same as rational sanity.
We are not alone in our own minds, and the insanity griping us from within are caused by an underground culture among us who have long since mastered this occult truth of Power.
We are thought controlled and it is the greatest crisis of our humanity. Your denials (“incredulity”) benefit you not at all.
Build a monument of brutalism unlike anything this world has yet seen (and I’m well aware of what that covers.)
The mind is a machine, if you keep it tuned it will last you and allow you to grow. You should certainly have the power to make yourself do anything. Try that game. Make yourself do anything, one simple thing at a time.
What do you think you should be learning? Is that some complex lie you tell yourself to get you something else? If it doesn’t mean anything to you, it will naturally fall off the page.
I want to respond to the criticism regarding the sex confirmation surgery of children being described as “crazy” for normal people.
I am a free will occultist, and would not condemn what comes of well informed consent, though I do think children are the “property” of their parents whose human right to not be interfered with by others is the concern of the state (lawful domain).
I have used my “challenge” (that we are not alone in our own minds and thought control is really screwing with us) to reflect upon truth, morality and “lawfulness.”
Thought control exists, messes with our sexuality, and that is wrong.
If a sex transitioned navy seal discussed his regrets, I think we can say children undergoing sex augmentation is imprudent. If a [mob] third party disembodied Power can influence our minds (for fun or for profit) it is a down right crime against our humanity.
Whatever your outlook on morality and free will, we are not alone in our own mind and disembodied others are manipulating our sexuality (children and all.)
Thanks for the book recommendation though!
I have superior athletic motor sensory development (decades of martial arts training).
I will say it is easier to hear the auditory intrusions with background noise. Often the more skilled enjoy blending their sounds with external noises (the hum of a motor, the television in the next room.) These, with practice can manipulate and augment absolutely any perception or conception. There is no human experience (known to me) which these at some skill level cannot manipulate.
