"Unvaccinated people filling up hospitals."
"Preventing cancer patients from getting surgery."
The scientific method would treat these as theories to be FALSIFIED. Science says actively seek data AGAINST this hypothesis.
Too bad these idiots didn't pay attention in 4th grade..
Calmly analyzing the data and wondering if ridiculous emotional claims are actually correct is how you don't get caught up in the hooplah.
Good science is assuming your statements are incorrect and seeking data which proves your statement FALSE.
Science worshippers - get this?
So when you hear claims that hospitals are overrun with unvaxxed stealing spots that cancer patients need (as if doctors should be choosing between patients - how about denying treatment to the obese?), and you believe this is "science", you're an idiot mouthpiece.
Your thinking brain, if you remember anything in elementary school about scientific method, should be dubious of this.
You should wonder how you'd measure such effects.
Actually checking the rates of cancer patients dying from missed surgeries.
Checking who is using equipment.
But even this implies that people should be denied medical treatment for personal choices.
Doctors treat the obese. They treat gang shooting members. They treat everyone. They don't deny treatment.
So if you've studied ethics, even if this were true it wouldn't matter.
People who are worshipping science these days are really just filling their "God-shaped hole" in their minds.
Appeal to authority is a logical fallacy.
Science is about doubting claims.
It's about finding why claims are WRONG, not RIGHT (that's confirmation bias).
#science
So when retards perpetuate the claims on the news that hospitals are overflowing with unvaxxed filling up all the spots, firstly who cares, doctors treat everyone. Secondly, are you actively trying to find examples of that claim being wrong? If not, you're not pro science.
The only winners here are the strategic propagandists who are becoming experts are manipulating popular opinion.
They're injecting images into people's heads of overflowing hospital.
They're triggering the amygdala's fear response.
They're the real winners here.
Strategy ftw.

Most people massage the data so their results look the best (see: AI researchers, academic experts, Pfizer execs).
Real winners make the experiments and data as challenging as possible with tricky situations, looking for the worst results. All to squeeze out better algorithms.
Related to the scientific method, where you're supposed to actively try to FALSIFY hypotheses.
It's human nature to latch onto good results. Ego.
If you actually want to improve your mind and technology, give it more and more challenges.
Forces the human engineer to be better.
Every time my clients will get excited about a good result, I always push back.
I wonder how representative that is of real world AI results.
I look for edge cases or flaws in the experimental design.
You get bad results for months.
Until you don't.
The tech gets more stable.
The goal isn't to giddily show off.
The goal is to grow your own mind.
To sharpen your own skills.

Small business idea:
Discriminate against vaxxed.
Ask for vax pass at doorway of a bar.
Giddy customers rush to you their pass.
Hostess goes "Sorry we don't serve your kind."
You'd make bank.
Every unvaxxed for miles becomes loyal customer.
News stations cover the evil bar.
Politicians scramble to spin. Heads explode with hypocrisy.
Start talking about "correct kinds of discrimination."
Media outlets talk about how this is just a political statement while real discrimination is for health.
New laws enacted so only govt can approve discrimination.
You're welcome, kings.

Let's discuss medical AI in my business.
Trying to predict which patients have which disease from healthcare data is no easy feat.
It involves exploring thousands of different classifiers, configuration parameters, features, neural networks, clever preprocessing techniques.
I work mostly with image and signal processing (an image is really just a 2D [X-RAY] or 3D [MRI] signal, so it's the same thing in another dimension).
This involves extracting features and applying filters to the signal, boiling it down to a single prediction: "HEALTHY" / "NOT".
Modern AI uses neural networks to try out thousands of combinations of filters (like snapchat filters) to the patient's images or signals.
Filters of filters of filters of filters.
Think of it like filtering the image until it's either all white (HEALTHY) or all black (NOT).
The old school way was to manually design filters, and then throw the filtered image into Random Forest, Support Vector Machines, or more recently XGBoost.
It takes your "hand-crafted features" and tries millions of combinations of "if"/"then" statements to spit out HEALTHY/NOT.
Deep learning techniques like Inception or Resnet connect different neurons to each other in a unique architecture.
It then takes a collection of known patient images, with known HEALTHY/NOT labels from a doctor, and feeds an MRI into the network.
It spits out HEALTHY or NOT.
It may be 80% confident you're HEALTHY, but you're actually NOT. It was wrong. By ΔError=0.80
Backpropagation is a technique where you use calculus to calculate the derivative (D=∂Error/∂Filter) to determine how much each filter must change, in order to have gotten it right.
Now, with deep learning, you don't change the architecture (how the neurons defining the filters are connected to one another).
Inception has one static architecture, Resnet another.
Only bleeding edge researchers try letting the architecture change as well, but I won't tell 🤫.
You take your derivative equation from calculus (D=∂Error/∂Filter) and mathematically determine how much each neuron's filter value would have to change to have gotten it correct (ie. this patient = NOT).
Millions of values, all tweaked a bit (dampened by its learning rate).
Now you've updated your neurons for a batch size of 1.
They're ready, they're smarter, they're stronger, their filters will definitely get the next patient's diagnosis correct!
You feed in a new patient's MRI.
This time, the filters are 60% confident it's HEALTHY...
Correct!
Score 1 for the AI.
But wait, it was only 60% confident.
It should have been 100% confident.
It was actually wrong by 40%.
ΔError=0.40
Sure, the last patient it was wrong 80%, so it got a bit "smarter", but there is still much room for improvement.
Backpropagation is then applied in half a millisecond, and the neuron's filters have been tweaked again.
Definitely getting smarter.
Repeat this for millions of times, with millions of images, over and over and over again.
Voila! You've trained a bleeding edge neural network.
Give those neurons a patient's MRI, it'll apply its filters and and tell you if they're HEALTHY.
And it'll be correct!
Well, maybe 70%-80% of the time.
The other times, it'll overconfidently misdiagnose a patient's MRI - we need cleverer architectures.
But that's the bleeding edge.
Same process for 1D signals, 2D X-Rays, 3D MRI scans.
Many other AI areas like EMR's, blood work, drug recommendations for cancer treatments.
And obviously more to it, I oversimplified it a bit.
But there you have it, folks - modern medical AI.

To truly observe
Is to become a Detached Rational
Dispassionate observer of life itself
So that you may see the things, as they are
Gradually, you will feel
That life bends to your will, my friends

REFLECTION:
Quite often it is the question of “who am I ?” which plagues those seeking more within this life. A question which appears seemingly unanswerable when pursued with language. The words fall flat as they are etched upon the page, also faltering upon the lips. There is power in the word, of that there is no doubt, but here in the description of self it appears to take hollow form. How is it that this only means of description we have, cannot describe exactly who we are? Is who we are not an ethereal feeling, something akin to a memory, that resides deep within us? Seen when we are in motion, fully absorbed in presence with fixed attention to a space and reality just beyond our grasp. Is this not when we feel truly alive, steeped in the beauty of life? A reconnection to the being which burst forth into this world free in spirit.
So often we are told who we are in this life. We begin to let these words of doubt and degradation burrow into our overactive minds. These foreign thoughts fester like an open wound, imploring us to settle for much less than we are inherently worth. A discarding of the natural power that resides within us all to an extent. We have subverted our genuine nature and our sacred consciousness to fit into a social artifice erected to tame us. A design which seeks our submission through compliance and bureaucratic foolishness. Slow death in a world that no longer has appetite for genuine adventure. A world where risk and hardship are no longer valued as experiences which open a window to the soul.
So ask yourself, or rather, connect with yourself outside of mere words, so you can rediscover the true self which wells up from the depths of consciousness. The long forgotten expression buried in an unmarked grave. Secrets of the mind lying in wait. Do not settle for the madness of tepid fools, for you are a creature of magnificent glory. You would do well to remember the divine rooted within.

The "climate crisis" is just our will-to-power manifesting. The instinct to control Earth's climate.
In a few centuries there will be a "solar crisis" as the will-to-power tries to control our Sun.
In a few millennia a "galactic crisis" as we desire power over the Milky Way.
It's amoral - neither good nor bad.
It's simply our instinct to control the environment.
But the problem is people fail to recognize it in themselves, deluding themselves it's for morality whereas it's really about power.
Not bad power, just power over nature. It's healthy.

I often find myself having kneejerk emotional reactions to modern events, and notice my opinions tend to vibe with those people who a few years ago I'd shake my head at for being simplistic. I'm actively working on noticing when I feel like my opinions stem from my limbic system.
This is honestly why I've not been speaking too much on social media lately.
I'm finding myself resonating with emotional posts, and realize that's not who I'm meant to become.
I'll find my voice again. I'm patiently figuring out how I want to view reality.
Perspective shifts.
I used to discuss the idea of extra dimensional thought processes. Now people discuss egregores and Satan worshipers. Lame and stupid.
I used to discuss freedom. Now "muh freedom" is becoming cartoonish.
I used to discuss global dominance. Now every loser thinks of conquering.
Everyone has become so smugly confident in their own views.
Anyone who values doubting and thinking through complex phenomenon without digressing into an online all caps shouting match is dismissed.
It's all so obvious to everyone.
Social media's echo chambers polarize us all.
People digging their heals in to their views.
One study showed that in chickens, a partly vaccinated population promoted mutations? Cool bro. But this is not fodder. Let's think about how that may or may not apply before throwing that in everyone's face.
Think harder.
"Just take action bro." How many messages are a rehash of that?
There's a certain type of flowstate action. "If I had 4 hours to cut a tree I'd spent 2 hours sharpening the axe."
There's new ways to view reality.
New ways to delve into the present moment more than "be mindful".
You hate the big bad Satan worshipping globalist elites? Yeah? Have you met them? You absolutely sure that's what they're doing? Or maybe you have the view of a James Bond villain ingrained in you from fiction.
Reality is weird, messy.
You absolutely KNOW what's happening?
No.
Everyone has a sickness.
Yes you.
Yes me.
Yes my followers.
It's the sickness of smugness.
Not everyone has it in equal amounts, but recognize it in yourself when you're so smugly sure of your opinion as correct.
That's not how you grow. It's weak. Uproot.
Time to observe.

One day, when the time is right, I'll share my writings with the world in the form of a book.
The time isn't nigh. For now I build.
Cuz talk is cheap, and while my physical & digital manifestations (e.g. cancer similarity engine) stem from writings, people require the physical.
Also right now the world is wildly schizophrenic with all the writings out there.
Everyone and their mother thinks what they have to say is gospel.
Viral social media personalities are not virile. The noise overtook the signal.
If I wrote now, I'd be drowned in a sea of noise.
I will wait for the inevitable crash, when the pendulum swings back the other way.
For those who can see the swings are closer to the fulcrum.
Those who get enmeshed in the daily hooplah (yes that's most of you reading this message) are weak and I pity you - you got absorbed.
I know you're super duper alpha.
You're super duper important.
You got loads to say.
"Be a creator, not a consumer!" you screech in your creator voice.
Never one to quietly observe.
Not seeing how contributing to the volume perpetuates noise, lost in the banals of history.
Eventually all the creators will be seen as a sea of noise.
Society will be suspicious of all creators selling something.
They'll start looking for those who sat back.
Is this an introvert's larping fantasy? No, I'm just observing.
It's a wild crazy time.
Won't last long.
In the meantime, I'll shut up and build my digital creations.
Everyone sucking Satoshi's cock right now instead of trying to follow his lead and build your own innovative invention.
Followers who think they're leaders.
Disgusting.
I'm all for crypto. As I build my own things.
Being obsessed about another person's creations, whether Bitcoin or NFTs or whatever will surely make you cash and make you on the cutting edge.
But it won't engrave your name in the history books. That's okay if that's your path.

Coding is about clever modularity.
It's about breaking things apart into discrete chunks and making things beautifully interconnect.
It's about manifesting your imagination onto the screen.
It's about designing beautiful architectures that interplay with each other.
It's about turning a dial and having your code run on a hundred or a million servers.
It's about abstracting away complexity into manageable single responsibility systems.
It's about allowing your mind to be let loose, only limited by the speed of your fingers.
It's about designing it all in your head first so when you sit down to write it, it's already done.
It's about the wisdom to build it properly from the start so your future self has minimal work to do.
It's about flowstate.

Active learning is a term used in medical AI (and probably other fields) wherein the AI makes some predictions, such as whether a person has cancer.
Then it shows the trickiest cases to the doctor, who corrects those predictions which it got wrong.
Afterwards, the AI is retrained with the corrected predictions.
This is repeated many times in a feedback loop, allowing the AI to refine itself.
Most engineers randomly provide training data to the AI. But active learning is about intelligently choosing which training data to feed into the AI.
Because labeling data, especially medical data, is costly and inefficient. So you want to be intelligent and label the most difficult cases for the AI to better learn.

FATE
Within him grew a divide. Akin to the splitting on an atom, which with great friction, caused a rupture of tremendous energy. A shift in his world which signaled a permanent irreversible change. A force long dormant, unleashed, which could no longer be contained, and the aims which it held for the future remained unknown.
This divergence brought upon by circumstance and growing awareness, could no longer be ignored. The fork within the road was now upon him. It was the decision which troubled him most. Before, blindly, he would have carried through these branches without a thought. But now, it could no longer be ignored. His aligned spirit has begun to stir and would not be silenced.
The way held slumber, suppression, and ignorance on the one path, and awareness, freedom, and uncertainty on the other. The decision, which seemed initially to be that of free-will, was daunting, yet even more daunting was the feeling that it was no longer a decision at all, but an inevitable end. Awareness had sunk deep within his chest and the magnetic pull it had upon his spirit was irresistible. And even if he were to somehow escape this force of nature, to follow the path which held neglectful slumber, something deep within him knew he would somehow come to this bifurcation once more. As if caught in a loop, pulled towards an unconscious aim.
Was it fate? Destiny? Had time somehow played itself out and he was simply the victim of a concrete circumstance? Regardless of the answer, it seemed to matter very little. For the outcome was the outcome, and the path which awareness had set him upon seemed immutable. Like he was less himself, and more a medium for an idea. An idea divined by the Gods, which would work through him. For he realized, it was the idea who had him, not he who had the idea.

This divergence brought upon by circumstance and growing awareness, could no longer be ignored. The fork within the road was now upon him. It was the decision which troubled him most. Before, blindly, he would have carried through these branches without a thought. But now, it could no longer be ignored. His aligned spirit has begun to stir and would not be silenced.
The way held slumber, suppression, and ignorance on the one path, and awareness, freedom, and uncertainty on the other. The decision, which seemed initially to be that of free-will, was daunting, yet even more daunting was the feeling that it was no longer a decision at all, but an inevitable end. Awareness had sunk deep within his chest and the magnetic pull it had upon his spirit was irresistible. And even if he were to somehow escape this force of nature, to follow the path which held neglectful slumber, something deep within him knew he would somehow come to this bifurcation once more. As if caught in a loop, pulled towards an unconscious aim.
Was it fate? Destiny? Had time somehow played itself out and he was simply the victim of a concrete circumstance? Regardless of the answer, it seemed to matter very little. For the outcome was the outcome, and the path which awareness had set him upon seemed immutable. Like he was less himself, and more a medium for an idea. An idea divined by the Gods, which would work through him. For he realized, it was the idea who had him, not he who had the idea.

PART 2
"Becoming Your Higher Self"
You are not what you think you are.
You are your memories, experiences, knowledge, and beliefs.
But, there's something inside that has remained exactly the same since the day you were born.
In school, in college, in work, at parties, when you're duunk, sober, sleeping, awake, all the time and everywhere. It's the same.
It's the witness inside you. The one who watches everything.
Do you ever wonder, who is it that watches?
It's your higher self. Your soul, inner being, energy, the God inside. Call it whatever you want.
It's your essence. It cannot be changed. It's not affected by insults, failures, fear, anger, pain, sex, love, success.
Nothing can touch it.
The goal is to become one with this witness.
Here the simple method:
Before going to sleep, while lying in bed, think about your day and the figure out the 'desire' behind your actions.
This simple exercise will help you to understand yourself better. And come closer to you inner being.
In the later posts, I'll explain how to control your senses, then mind, then the intellect and finally become one with the inner being.

Tyrants always use the "It's for the greater good" argument.
"Nurmengard was a towering, jet-black wizarding prison built by Gellert Grindelwald to hold his enemies.
And carved over the entrance is Grindelwald’s grim mantra:
'For the Greater Good'."

The Internet's polarizing people, causing forks, divergent worldviews, ideologies that are here to stay, forcing difficult choices on us, fracturing us, clustering us, dividing us, all as part of its self-organizing process.
Does the instinct to self-organize imply consciousness?

The ideological war on mandates will only end one one side definitively loses.
Who has incentives to drag this on?
It's all about power, as that's what this all comes down to.
Me talking on power like an autistic introvert circa 2017 might be cringe, but I clarified my views.

Before they change the definition, want to clarify how I always learned what "racism" means:
'To prejudge someone based on their race, most noticably by using someone's skin color as part of your decision-making process.'
I prefer to be colorblind, never considering skin color.

Organizational levels:
The cell has a degree of organization.
The human has a degree of organization. And above it the planet. The solar system. The galaxy.
All these structures are not independent of each other.
All levels of organization interact on other levels of organization.
The atom acts on the molecule. The molecule on the hormone. The hormone on the behavior of The human. The human on the planet.
It is because the cell needs sugar that it will ask the human to hunt for food. It is because of hunting for food that man wanted to extend his territory and that he ended up sending rockets outside the planet.
In return, it is because the astronaut will experience a breakdown that he will get a stomach ulcer and, because there is a stomach ulcer, some of the atoms that form his stomach lining will see their electrons detached from the nucleus to give free radicals; therefore, the microscopic electric fields in the stomach will change.
Zoom out, zoom in from atom to space.
Seen from this angle, the death of a man means nothing scientifically. It is only energy that is transformed. The energy that made the human being run, play, reproduce will make a tree grow and give fruits, in the form of compost mixed with the earth.
There are only two choices: the spiritualist choice and the scientific choice. For the spiritualists, the soul reincarnates in several bodies.
For the scientists, it is the energy which recycles under several forms of matter.
A common point to both options: we are all energy from the big bang and in permanent recycling.

"How To Control The Senses"
Your reality is what you perceive through the 5 senses.
Eyes to see.
Ears to hear.
Nose to smell.
Tongue to taste.
Skin to touch.
These 5 senses have only one purpose: Gathering information about your environment.
Everything that you experience through these senses is stored in form of memory inside your brain.
Now pay attention, this is the important part,
All your five senses are indifferent. Which means they only give you raw information, but they tell you absolutely nothing about the object.
For example,
You see an apple. But your eyes can't tell you it's Red.
You know it's Red because you've been taught so. And that information is permanently stored inside your brain.
So now whenever you eyes see an apple, that particular memory is recalled and you see it as red.
In realty the senses work only on two principles:
Pleasure and Pain.
All the other distinctions are based on what you've memorised throughout your life.
Once you become fully self-aware of this fact, you start seeing things for what they truly are.
To control the sense we have an inside mechanism called conscience.
Let's call it our inner guide. This guide observes, memorises and learns from every experience.
And here's the good part: it's programmed to keep you on the right path. To follow the path of nature.
You can test it anytime you want and it always gives you an answer that's for you own good.
You can try it right now.
Is smoking good for me?
Is watching porn health for my mind?
Is procrastinating good for my career?
Do I really need alcohol to enjoy a moment?
And everytime, you'll get an answer that's in favour of your health and happiness.
You don't need motivation, or healers, or therapy.
All you need is to start listening to your inner guide.
I know it can be hard. The conscience know it's bad, but the mind forces and drags you with it.
Chew on this for a few days, then we'll learn how to deal with the mind.
