Wicked idea Got this flash that could be useful: i can see another thing that could come from that correspondence would not necessarily be one - one like...
Hey Mik, I get this warm fuzzy feeling when someone actually gets this. Thank you. There's two models of the concept you have mentioned, that could both apply....
Hey Theodore, ... Well, there's http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chaos_theory ... I beg to differ. Computers are really good at dealing with millions of instances...
... The impression I get is that Theodore isn't using the word "logic" in quite the same way as it's normally used. He seems be implying a concept that is...
So I have this idea about logic. I want to make a "logic processor". I know that many similar projects have been done in the past. Like prolog, or perhaps even...
... The comments (bits after the //) were probably more misleading than guiding to be honest... I'll try again. If I had implemented this imaginary logic...
... Thanks Andrew, It seems similar to what I'd like to do. Although they haven't really had much success, not of the kind of success I hope to achieve! (After...
I like the idea of yours for logic that would work on natural language - works from natural language. Or is the idea broader making use of logic as the...
Theodore, Your comment and set theory sparked off one little thought this morning. You may recall Alan Carters early writings about a "Primary Algebra" by a...
Hey! I just got an idea my idea was about something that can complement create a system and have like multiple options on the route to get to answers, so that...
I've now refactored the description around stress addiction, with the policing of arbitrary stereotypicalities maintaining the stress level. It falls into...

Just a quick random thought .. a common experience I have when helping people out with technical issues is this: Me: "Just click on XYZ.." Luser: "XYZ?" Me:...
http://www.news.com.au/dailytelegraph/story/0,22049,22535838-5012895,00.html Posted before, I think, but it's even more interesting if you slow it down or...
I've seen that a bunch of times before. Everytime I've seen it I've seen it spin counter clockwise (deductive). However this time I was linked to it something...
... I don't remember which way I saw her spinning the first time, but now I can make her spin either way at will. This theory about left-brained/right-brained...
... As I said, single-stepping in GIMP (or whatever) is interesting. My observations so far: 1) The direction her hangs is fixed, and so is "wrong" for one ...
Along similar lines, this slashdot article .. http://science.slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=07/12/13/2122259 .. is possibly grounds for optimism, too, so long as...
While for me the "natural" way of seeing it is counter-clockwise (yeah yeah I'm very analytical), I managed to make it switch +- at will. The shadow is pretty...
Hi Steve, LIFE ON MARS SPOILER WARNING... At the end of Life on Mars the detective returns to 2007, and finds all the meeting room blah blah empty and...

WRT handedness, there's a castle in Scotland (I think it's clan Campbell but I'm not sure) which has the stairs going the wrong way. Normal spiral stairs go CW...

I only see it rotating clockwise. Apparantly that means I'm right brained. Although I seem to have strong characteristics from both their descriptions of right...
... Yeah, me too, though irritatingly, not all at the same time. A few years ago I seemed to switch from being reasonably detail-focussed and logic oriented...
... My view on it is mere practicality. If you worry so much about every cent you spend or every letter you write and every word you say... you quickly become...
... I think there's a subtler distinction to be made here. Who's telling us, "if A then B", or is it derived from experience? Could the person (or our...
