Evolution of the sciences throughout history
Tumblr media
Yesterday I could finally scribble a rough framework of an observation and concept I had regarding the sciences, and how they emerged from some ancient mysticism pseudoscience stuff, such as astrology and alchemy.
I considered 5 stages:
Primordial stage: Natural philosophy
Early/primitive stage: Alchemy, Math(could also be between primordial and early stage), Astrology
Main stage: Chemistry, Anatomy and Biology, Physics, Astronomy
Early interdisciplinary stage: Biochemistry, microbiology, astrophysics, nuclear and particle physics, cosmology, quantum physics
Complex interdisciplinary stage: Sociology, psychology, neuroscience, cognitive science
... then coming back to logic and linguistics and looping back to philosophy... and a new round begins... (What does this mean in concrete? That one is for another article as it would exceed the margin now. (But it has to to with dynamical iterative rendering processes, to summarize it.))

Ketheric: I would raze the world for my daughter; I love her more than anything. What parent doesn't love their child this much? Durge: ??? Ketheric: And if she doesn't behave how I want her to then I will strip her of autonomy and force her to be my loyal, loving child. Durge: Ah, now you make sense.

I am wishing greatly for the day when a game comes along and mages are no longer glass canons. I don't want them politely use a fancy staff or scepter or book from a careful distance, let my mages tear their enemies apart with their bare hands and bury them with a flaming meteor.
Melee 👏 Battlemages👏

[fic: ynyd] What does Peter think about EDITH? Has Tony now given EDITH to Peter, or is Tony still waiting until death or until a specific milestone? (Ouch, ouch, Tony, you are never allowed to die.)
What would the dynamic be between EDITH and FRIDAY and KAREN? (Or rather, would there even be a dynamic between the AI systems?)
Peter: Ugh, EDITH.
Tony: Don't talk about her like that; she'll hear you.
Peter: Look, she's fine, but she's too much lady for me.
By which I mean: she's still willed to me for now, but just because there's not like… an actual global defense taskforce on Earth at the moment. But we're working on it, so once that's in place she'll go to them instead, not as a single-user system and not as a pair of glasses.
…And a lot of the more stalker-y features have been removed.
Tony: What can I say? I have a everything-and-the-kitchen-sink approach to engineering.

no but also i'm thinking about all the ways in which someone's way of speaking via text can impact others' perception of them and it's sorta killing me. example situation: someone's just finding out that a character they liked dies in canon. they're not bursting into tears irl, but they're pretty bummed out. so: "NUUUUUUU but i love him so much!!!! TToTT" vs "noooo, i love him so much!"
also, the way older people type. my mother excessively uses emoji, especially :) -- and it's not the :) of despair. i've heard of others using lots of ellipses, even if they're not trailing off dramatically. it's all learned, and i suppose if my mother learned to text in different times, her manner of texting would be way different.
but what i'm getting at is -- sometimes it's all you get! and that's a bit scary if you think about it, because for the most part i feel like how you communicate online depends on where you hang out and what you're used to, so someone who's mature and well-spoken might type like a child with only a vague awareness of commas, etc, or someone who's kind and friendly might come off as mean simply because they've been hanging out on twitter too much.
(and then there's picking up people's mannerisms just because they seem fun, something that i do without even noticing it both off- and online, which muddles things up even more because you might wonder why i'm being so salty and angry out of nowhere, but i'm actually just emulating an incredibly funny blogger who spoke in this or that particular way in a strictly humorous context.)
communication is hell and one can never understand another person perfectly and completely. etc

Guardian signs thoughts of the evening: I know bc of threat escalation GS had to be crazier and more high stakes than the other games before it, especially as THE last gen 4 game, but it’s still. absolutely buckwild. to me that one of the first bosses you fight (Raikou) is one of the FINAL bosses of the first game, and shit stays at that level of crazy til the very end. befriend the proclaimed most violent Pokémon in the world. twice. in a row. try to help your mom work through her post traumatic stress disorder and fight satan. the gods that control time and space and your very existence are mad as hell. try not to get judgemented

had a dream i was looking at the imdb page for a nonexistant movie that looked cool. NOT FAIR
vandalism on the page made it hard to know what the title was but it was called "hypergogia" (playing on the word hypnagogia) and there was a subtitle along the lines of.. amazing / unusual dream.... idk. fitting bc it was a dream tho.

*With a lack of an answer on the Crispers, Kim simply opts to grab a bag of the regular flavor, as well as a salt and vinegar one after a moment's consideration. She then continues pushing the cart along, navigating them to an isle of coolers on one side of the store. Inside several of them are a ridiculous amount of tea flavors spanning several brands, including a good few that Kim is fairly certain no one has ever heard of before, and perhaps never will.*
... what the hell? Why are there so many? This is supposed to be just a small little store...
Tumblr media
Well, they have your Brisk. In several flavors.
Seriously, why are there so many tea options? Do all of these have different stat boosts or something?
*As she waits for the bunny's selection she begins pulling out some of the bottles to inspect their labels, seemingly baffled. She mumbles off anywhere from one to four stats at a time, looking increasingly confused and agitated.*

"Delete space - escape time"
I want to write about my drawing from 2014 again. (Sorry in advance for the half-finished and ill-formulated thoughts.)
This is the drawing I mean:
Tumblr media
I chose the title "Delete space - escape time", because it represents a wormhole.
The piece of paper of the drawing is the "medium", synonymous to "spacetime continuum".
Depicted in the top right corner there is an entry/exit of a wormhole - a black hole - marked as point "B".
A bit below and left to that point B there is another wormhole entry/exit or black hole - marked as point "A".
What does the silly title mean?
"Delete space" -> Reduce the distance between point A and point B -> How? -> Bending/distorting the medium/piece of paper -> flap the page so that point B layers on top of point A, and the distance becomes zero. -> That"s basically a wormhole loop now. The entire idea just depicts a black hole as a kind of loop, per this vague interpretation.
Why "escape time"?
It is postulated at the center of black holes time stops (due to infinite time dilation due to the singularity"s infinite density. (Singularities are the objects at the center of black holes ) ) - the fabric of spacetime becomes so densely wrinkled it turns into a clot of incomprehensible anomalies.

As if Akechi wouldn't cuddle up to Kuboyasu with a little white board and dry erase marker to turn stories of Kuboyasu's exploits into war games where they tweak the different variables and propose how they'd get past defenses, grab the target, evade the cops, etc.

I'm too chill about my M.A Thesis bc I'm like, it has to be between 55-60 pages and I have three months, I just wrote two 20 page papers + an 8 page proposal last month, and my B.A Thesis which I did in under two months was 50 pages, everything is okay, etc but there's also a creeping sense of anxiety about it because I haven't started writing yet :/
