Showerthoughts — Do we think our own thoughts? (ROUGH DRAFT)

We aren’t a comrade of people surrounding one central pursuit. No. We are the people we think. We think everywhere; about everything. We don’t stop thinking. We just keep thinking.

And when we stop thinking we stop not thinking to ask ourselves why we aren’t thinking. Rather than sit in silence, we must always blare the speakers. No matter what is playing, how it sounds or who enjoys it, we must play that music loud because we need to be heard.

We want to know that we aren’t the only ones thinking. We want to know why [I JUST REQLIZED I WAS SCREEN RECORDING THIS] people aren’t thinking. We really don’t know if people aren’t thinking these things. We’re confident because we’ve thought about it enough and debated with ourselves whether or not the thoughts we thought were good thoughts.

We looked for more signal. We listened for other speakers playing the same noise that we play constantly. We tease our feelers out with feeble attempts at comedy or perhaps writing-some form of composing our thoughts, delivering them, and getting results.

That’s why there’s mayhem today because people that I think think like me are in control. They have the power. I recognize their faults. I understand them. I can explain them. I believe I have a majority of them. I think these people are geniuses. I truly ignorantly and arrogantly consider myself a genius. Perhaps there needs to be a better word.

I need a word to describe the following satisfaction with this state of being:
I want to think thoughts that no one else thinks about in a way where I could start from a redundantly simple first principle or statement and get them to my point.

Mathematics is a language of story telling. If you can tell me where you stated and where you’re going, I could (if sufficiently intelligent in a subject matter) more than likely predict how you got there. And most of the time, I could tell you various ways of getting there. So if you showed me a way that wasn’t how I thought you were going to get there, you followed all rules along the way as far as I could tell and you got the same place, everyone in the room would be very impressed.

In other words, mathematics is how we have stories for children that feel familiar with stories for adults yet produce drastically different visual displays. The thing that has happened is called an abstraction and is also very common in computer science for ~reducing code duplication amongst other things~ what has happened here is that we have reduced the amount of data required to send a message of feeling. Stories need to make us feel. They need to be edgy and push the limits because we need to be able to explore those limits to decide as a united collective where that boundary actually belongs.

Sorry if this occasionally gets political or governmental. I want to fix these problems and believe I have peaceful logically ways of doing so.

Violence needs to end. Global peace is possible and within reach. We all just have to think and speak truthfully. That’s why Jordan Peterson always talks about the truth. If you’re desire is to have all people tell the truth you are someone who has the best desired outcome of society in your interests. We forget what end of the distribution curve we’re looking at. Common people don’t understand Bell curves. Why is e in there? Could you really explain that from first principles? I think not! I think the intelligent think they’re more intelligent than they are because they can’t find like minded people on the internet that are provably intelligent either. And so you’re left with a dilemma. Do you create a system that would perhaps help make these determinations? But wouldn’t endeavoring on that project reveal a lot of weakness? Aren’t you very afraid of weaknesses? Or do you make excuses that you can maybe use the opportunity cost to develop an idea that can truly help improve society in a very term agreeable and altruistic way?

The things you think about aren’t necessarily important in the every day run of the mill situation, but every once in a while, perhaps every 3–15 years or so, one of these ideas has a little insight. Maybe that estate is off but whatever it is, it will continue increasing as a result of information creation increasing. I don’t feel people take that number serious enough. It’s as if it’s the current that runs through the electrical circuit. Current is used almost across he board in electronics sciences. Information is the analogy in society at large. However, we’re focused on lower level abstractions that aren’t as imprortant in deteming important things.

For example, would you imagine simply from he words I’m using that this sentence would be true or false: quarks, muons and neutrinos are subatomic particles that meaningfully influence he flow of current in a circuit?

You would likely find that sentence so strange that you would assume I’m making those words up. But I’m not. They’re actually used in science at the absolutely frontier (at least according to publicly available information in an obvious way without years of extensive research. Perhaps this information held privately by the controlling party is akin to god in religions. Information held publicly or things that were constantly in contact with their own thoughts. I would call these people not enlightened but at least self aware in a thoughtful sense. Think of it that their light is on. Now, consider ignoring a self aware flame under all of civilization so they all started thinking about the truth. Everyone would disagree but we could put together thought puzzles and lessons to make us all realize our similarities.

All of good religions attempt to show us how similar we all are. When Adam Harris points out that there are more tragic stories than that of Jesus. It isn’t a tragedy in the utmost sense because Jesus volunteered. A more tragic, as well as horrific story would be of an innocent boy, and even worse, an innocent girl was kidnapped and made to work in a space camp and then burned to death just because of some group they look like they belong to or even actually belong to.

As people like Dr. Martin Luther King have pointed out, when there is an injustice, we must speak out and speak out together. But he also spoke about how we had to be friends; not guarantee we’re always right. He said we must all become brothers and sisters, not just when there was a problem but always. It’s important for groups this big to agree on a certain amount of information. Again, information is directly analogous in a different level abstraction as current in electronics. Which also relates to charge. And when particles (our brains) group together closely in balance for a period of time and then their charges are hanged, they begin to push away. And so that process spurs growth around the planet. And that mimics the mathematical process with which bacteria spreads around a Petri dish or ball. However, what happens when population spreading occurs and disparate cultures collide with other cultures with which they don’t have a shared understanding of the word, chaos erupts because mathematical imbalances increase. This is all mathematically viable. It just has to be measured honestly. Suffice this all to say that these words can not only be mathematically verified as true but we can also show that to anyone willing to learn some high school level math.

My fingers are getting tired so I think I’m going to stop and get ready for sleep. This has been fun writing these down.

I’ve got video, screenshots and voice recordings of this session.

What this was is I let myself type all of my thoughts. I have different voices that have conversations. Normally, I only speak the result of their conversation. However, in certain conditions, I can apply a third control of my thoughts. That which increases the quality and understanding of both sides of my thoughts. It doesn’t make me think about different things. Rather, I feel like I have a better more accurate tool to describe things I think about. I believe this will relate directly mathematically to factual mathematical claims made about how the brain is eight dimensional. Even knowledge of knowledge itself is hierarchical. That’s why we think about the all seeing eye. That’s why we think about psychedelics. That’s why we have hallucinations. That’s why we inherently understand abstractions. Perhaps more accurately we understand comparisons. More nuanced are abstractions than comparisons in a different direction of reasoning. So like inmentiojed, I can apply perhaps a third dimensional of thinking but can’t fathom what higher would be. Perhaps truly sages, visionaries, and prophets can be factually and logically categorized as such with some appropriate thought. No one can talk to god because that we presuppose that god is within us. But what if the thing they were trying to describe (not the thing they said in translation nor origination) is true. If this sounds like fooey, please tell me why you think so. Let’s have a long thoughtful conversation about this. In other words, there isn’t some white bearded man in the sky that can talk to you. However, religions can be classified mathematically according to how many dimensions they require about you to get to god. Internal dimensions are demoted as negative because in algebra a negative exponential constitutes an inverse (or smaller in general normative cases)

Interestingly, I touched on this ina. Video I recorded called god came from inside humans. What I didn’t realize at the time is that that is the core premise of eastern religiosity. What they call god is everything. It’s every particle to have ever existed. And not only are we factually made up of it, but it is within us. Essentially, eastern religions answer different questions than western religions with different subbologies. And so these look completely different to those unfamiliar in disparate cultures, there’s a very low chance to reconcile differences and create new common understanding. That’s what we forget. If we are to allow the claim that we are all human, then there is some collective general truth we can build upon. If there’s not, you must say why you think there isn’t. But if you’re reasoning is good enough, then everyone will have to agree because your reasoning is so simple it accounts for the 99.999% of humans alive. However, if you do that then you’ve found a universal truth in that saying there exists no universal truth. This is the concrete logical proof of why postmodernism at its most mild critique is not logically consistent. That can begin the new baseline criticism. I think that would help a lot of things. Because rather than attacking each other, we seek a new common understanding. Not completely perhaps out of our own free will, but if not for any other reason except for the fact that I’ll get paid to tell the truth. We can do this by voluntarily measuring reputation in large scale society with their complete permission and understanding. So by changing the first line of attack we use in every day discourse, I think we could truly make more creatively inspired people that will be able to fix more problems in society over time. This is undoubtedly the best way to continue the human existence and we should attempt to cooperate peacefully in its construction in order to best make our mark on society.

Agreement and commonality over conflict or argument.

Peace over war

Happiness over Sadness

Sharing over Hoarding

Fed over Starving

Fulfilled over lack of Fulfillment

Free over being ruled

Thinking over repeating

Speaking Intelligently over Being Cool

Respect over Hatred

Clothed over bare

Challenged over complacent

Good over evil

Housed over Without Home

Abundance over scarcity

Kind over mean

Intellectual over idealogical

Logical over quick witted (pushing it…)

Responsible over …WHAT?… Lackadaisical, Aloof, And Nonthinking

Flexibility over stubbornness

(A more nuanced categorization is that of a sphere rather than a line or plane)

{Again, perhaps this has to do with dimensionality of the brain. How many discrete object can you remember at once? Around 7? Probably closer to 7 than 79 or then 2, right? See? Examine the closeness and predictive ness of the claim, this also applies to higher order analysis of things like matrices or excel spreadsheets. Could you mentally calculate the first three in one list as well as the firstt three items from another list? How many times could you do that? That speaks to the brains abstraction of the hierarchy of memory. }

Positivity over negativity

Appreciation for difference over distrust

Defensive over attacking

Working hard trying to extract value from tradition over abandonment of silly ideas while simultaneously making it easier and more true to humanity to learn tradition balance here is key and arrives as symbology of the yin yang. You can think of that symbol as a cross section of 5 dimensional space time with a measurement of information flow and general perceived level of tradition vs peaceful modernity revolution. We can find this pattern in measurements of nature if we measure the proper things.

In dismissing tradition in a technological age, we completely abandon our truth passing mechanisms and perhaps limit them to obvious fictional stories. For if I were to ask you what is your countries tradition and does it help or hurt you, I don’t think a lot of people would have a logically consistent answer. Tradition should always serve to spread truth and make everyone better off who seeks truth. If tradition ceases to dot hat it should be corrected. However, truth correction mechanisms have never been so powerful and efficient, we just aren’t using that power for finding truth but rather than for pursuing our vain impulses for the pursuit of goods. That is the quickest way for losers society to implode in on itself. However, if we develop an altruistic tradition generating and measuring platform whereby improvements to the overall system as measured by he system will net you economic gains AND we specify the improvement being proposed much implement a measure that will noticeably and detectably improve a measurement somehow whether through increase or through proocable refinement, then a then that is the the primary condition for proposing or issuing a pull request to the information analysis database engine. Then, we can look to see I’d code has test written, documentation provided, and has appropriately performed other software engineering protocols, allthewhile leaving possibilities for those who have been following to uniquely and complimntsrily document the evolution of the information for economic gain, we have the true global developer. After all, we have the global computer, what comes next after that?
