    You mentioned your illness. Are you able to support yourself? Are you planning to being able to financially secure yourself when your illness have progressed? Does your illness impact your perspective on state welfare?

    Hiya Serac, can you do one of these again?: https://www.intpforum.com/threads/statistical-analysis-of-intpf.26962/ I'm thinking we could do a new years thread. I'm trying to find my old intpf demographics survey thread and stumbled upon your thread here. Basically one of us can make a Happy New Years 2019 thread and post statistics about the forum and the users. Up for it if you aren't too busy?
    Ex-User (14663)
    that's a very nice idea. Problem is just that the site has changed since that time, so I would have to rewrite all the extraction code – which would take a bit more time than I have before new years. I might do it at some point in the future though :)

    Mr. Robot = copyright material in USA (cant see it here) just so you know. Happens in most countries too.

    Ah, that's a shame. Thanks for letting me know though

    1) I may have been harsh and cutting in what I said. But truly in A.I. debates, people infer things about what I say that are olds arguments against A.I. I've heard before and therefore presume I know what are inferring about me which is not what I've said but is being used to support a counter position I may know about but is not the particular one they have in mind so are vague assuming we share the same assumption

    as possible

    microcolumns have structure, plasticity and firing rates of ion channels. the models work in simulation compared to measurements of real columns pattern learning.

    I think I counted the word "fuck" about 10 times in that one post you wrote lol. Anyway, no worries. I merely like to think and discuss the topic. I have no strong opinion on whether AGI is possible or not. I just know that a lot of things seem plausible when described conceptually, but runs into problems and unsurmountable complications when implemented in practice. That has often been the theme in AGI research.
    Ex-User (14663)
    Your theories could be interesting if you implemented them somehow and observed the results.

    I just woke up from a dream where the man in your avatar was sexually harassing me and I had to fight with him before he left me alone. Any comments ? Jungian interpretations? Jokes?
    Ex-User (14663)
    Well I can only hope he didn't introduce himself as Serac. If he did, I attribute the whole thing to INTP-esque social ineptitude.

    No comment XD. My dreams are extremely random and meaningless though. I've just figured out it's the dude from Django unchained.
    Ex-User (14663)
    As most dreams are, I suppose. Yesterday I dreamed that I died in a plane crash. Strange experience for sure, but surprisingly not too unpleasant.

    GPS is the joker card and you are not but if I was appealing to authority it makes not sense not explaining it and it makes no sense that IQ is based on appeals to authority. Like I said no professional Doctor unless mentally challenged would use a test based on results based on appeals to authority. Scientists don't do that. All the research and math is available. You just need to pay for it. I read blogs about it.
    Black Rose
    You called my reasoning circular and word games.
    I understood that if you could not see my points you would say this. (I thought my points were good)
    But GPS said I was appealing to authority and away from where I could see it.
    He deconstructs everything and is the reason I said people like him do not care about constructive discussion.
    He was always hassling BunnedOut showing flaws but never corrections.

    Maybe it was unfair on my part, I dunno. I agree that in general, one should make an effort to respond to what other people are actually trying to say as opposed to nitpick isolated statements. I'm definitely not perfect in that regard but it is an ideal of mine.

    And I thought you were good with numbers !! Such a digit would have such an impact on the stock market ! Would not recommend your imprecise services to potential clients pursuing wealth.
    Ex-User (14663)
    that's why I mostly rely on computers for the numbers. Speaking of the stock market, I'm pretty sure I mix up 1984 and 1987 because of 1987 black monday

    I admire you but there are serious threads and unserious threads. Lately there doesnt seem to be much activity on more serious threads.

    When weird-ass moods strike me I say weird-ass things :)

    Or... When mood variance lowers my inhibitions, I post faster and perhaps more provocatively? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

    Yeah, I see where you're coming from.

    There was certainly a lot of naivety/ optimism about what you would be able to achieve when you got older. I was pushed into a niche study because my parents etc were certain it would be possible to get a job if you just "worked hard enough".

    I also worked in a few industries, storage etc. That sucked the life out of me as well.

    So yeah, being told everything will turn out awesome your entire life is not a good thing. People tend to be a bit scared of pessimism, but they fail to realize you can be realistic without feeling hopeless.

    Maybe this is too personal, if so you don't have to answer. But I've seen you mention millennials and various negative aspects connected to it, so I've become kinda curios what in your life has made you cynical (?) or pessimistic about that. Is it a trend in the general population that bothers you? Is it a manifestation of disappointments in your own life you realize others your age also fell trap to? Other stuff?

    If you ever made a thread about this stuff, it would probably be grounds for some interesting debate
    Jennywocky
    I don't know if I'll be able to ask you there, I have heard you are too much fun at parties and you'll probably be mobbed....
    Jennywocky
    ... that's just what I would expect a coverup about usernames to read like. WHAT IS THIS ELUSIVE MAD TRUTH THAT SLIPS AWAY FROM ME THROUGH THE SHADOWS???
    Jennywocky
    ... you're funny. :)

    So is your deep dark secret that Serac careS? Or is it just an anagram for Scare? Or Races? Or am I creating a puzzle where none exists, and you're really just a knock-off alien leader from ST:TOS?
