Unreadable. Organize your thoughts, write concisely. You believe you have something to say; we would love to hear it. But we aren’t willing to wade through a sewage of words.

This is just tedious. The electro-chemical map of the brain that is built and used to study it, is so primitive.

Almost certainly, "the brain" tunes itself to its environment and inner states from a preformed inner structure through evolution. A lot of what is in the brain, is not actually to be found in the brain, or by studying it materially. The "formwork" that formed it, is lost in evolutionary time.

Unfortunately there is no way to impute the formwork from the form, like say it would be possible to (mostly accurately) impute what formwork created a square column or cast a piece of iron.

"The brain" is not in any way shaped like a physical object, and the formwork that formed it is infinitely complex.

Our brains are physical object, and the connections it is composed of are also physical.

I have a similar project https://github.com/shi-yan/Epiphany

this looks nice and clean - why have you paused development? I see there are 32 github issues

Calling yourself a polymath is akin to calling your self a genius.
meesterdude · 2 years ago
this is a bit exaggerated.

Polymath > A polymath is an individual whose knowledge spans a substantial number of subjects, known to draw on complex bodies of knowledge to solve specific problems.

If that's who you are, there's no shame in identifying as so. Don't let hacker news comments gatekeep you.

Is this sarcasm?

I don't know about "any minute now" But I would echo the comment that I think they face a lot of turbulence in their future.

My current side project (neighborhud.app) is an iPhone 6 in every room displaying a HUD (heads up display) of recurring things i need to do in that area, inventory, events, and requests. Iphone 6's are fairly advanced devices that are only ~$35 on ebay. This allows for recycling of tech that would otherwise become trash, because it just renders a webpage that's been added to the home screen (so it looks like an app). This bypasses any app store requirements so as long as it can keep running safari it's still of use. I just leave them plugged in with low screen brightness.

For "inventory", it's just a custom state machine that can be scheduled in the past or future. And requests are things an area needs - which can be associated with an inventory item, or free text. This lets me pull up all requests when I'm at the store and see the kitchen needs apples, and the bathroom needs soap, etc.

Right now, I have a HUD for my front door (to remind me of things before i leave) a HUD for my phone/car (when I'm out) and then one for my kitchen, bathroom and hallway. I have the one in my kitchen magnetically on my fridge, so i can pull it off and take picture of food I'm adding. Will probably add one for my office next.

The difficult thing for me has been being the user more than being the builder and just focusing on the real MVP and then picking at it over time.

Working on cleaning it up and then maybe allowing others to give it a go - i feel like there could be some value in connecting people with spaces.

I didn't think Mastodon would make sense for me as any kind of twiter alternative, but then I found someone created ruby.social and now it actually makes sense for me, and offers something twitter doesn't.
