"In 1991 the commercialisation of the lithium-ion battery sparked a revolution in rechargeable technology, ushering in the age of portable electronics. Today, batteries are everywhere, from bike lights to busses, and modern technology requires ever-improving performance. The key polymeric components in commercial batteries are not sufficient to meet current demand for energy density, long-term ...

    Heminges and Condel were given only 1 pound 40p each. How did they finance a book printing that cost >1,000 pounds? A copy of the First Folio sold for 24 pounds in 1664 so the total run of 750 copies would, at that rate, have sold for ~18,000 pounds. Cost of production was significantly less than that but certainly well above the 2 pounds 80p that Heminges and Condel had.

    The problem with this argument is that it ignores heuristics: pragmatic and informal shortcut approaches to "understanding" or knowing things, that either cannot be formally proven, or else would be prohibitively challenging to do so. Computers can be (and have been) programmed to identify things through heuristics.

See his theories on a cyclic model of the Universe and how consciousness may be mediated in the brain/body via quantum processes. But note .. not manufactured by the brain. There is no evidence that the brain secretes or manufactures consciousness. Only people who haven’t looked at the evidence propose that and … no one knows how to “make” consciousness from LEGO like “dead” atoms. How do you make awareness from Lego ?

    And hopeless at just sticking to Atiyah’s names: What the fuck is a ‘twistor’. Spinor itself had the entire theory of Galois field extensions stuck between the ill definedness of algebra and geometry. Spinor is a concept of ill conceivable majesty; you should just call whatever the manifold is a spinor if it’s meant to be a model for this algebro-geometrically ill defined construction that isn’t of a constructive nature. It’s meant to be well-defined. Check the projective geometry notes: Is a projective plane (in the pure sense of concept) meant to orientable or unorientable? If it’s the same thing as in GoS then it’s not going to become a fucking sphere is it!

    I think it is naive of Penrose to think that the theoretical impossibility of machines to prove theorems implies that humans are not machines. Humans will never be able to prove all theorems either, simply because some of them take 10^300 symbols to even formulate, let alone prove.

    The time limit in chess is often considered absurd. When you introduce a clock to chess, you're no longer measuring the skill of a player but rather their speed. It's akin to the pressure of timed exams, where many students who might have excelled under different conditions fail not because of their abilities but because they run out of time. It's a scenario where the absence of a time constraint could have led to success. So I get you Penrose, i don't like timed chess myself, it puts me in a box😂😂

      @@rahulramkissoon Alright, let's say the validity of your statement about the vast number of possible moves in chess is true. I think you're missing the point. I'm talking about the dynamics of a timed versus untimed match. In a timed setting, the pressure to decide on the optimal move within a constrained timeframe intensifies. This doesn't necessarily imply inferiority; rather, it highlights the challenge of making critical decisions under time constraints. My point is that in a timed game, where seconds count, the margin for deep analysis of each move is significantly reduced compared to its untimed counterpart. This reduction in available time can increase the risk of suboptimal choices, not due to a lack of skill, but simply because there isn't enough time to thoroughly evaluate all potential moves. Do you get?

I advise you to conduct experiments with acetabulary, acting on it, and finding mechanisms that disrupt the work on the formation of the cytoskeleton. It will be necessary to analyze and then try to change the cytoskeleton in a targeted way. And then it will be possible to get close to the technology of genetic programming of the cytoskeleton.

    Penrose states that Gödel’s incompleteness theorem is an indication that our consciousness is not computational. But I don’t see how Gödel’s theorem necessarily excludes computational processes being involved. Gödel’s theorem just shows that we are able to identify truths that apply within formal systems but which are not derivable by the rules of those systems. Machine learning algorithms also do this all the time - Natural Language Processing is probably the most well known example, which is able to compile facts about language syntax and semantics without using any rules about language whatsoever. There’s nothing inherently non-computational about this sort of process.
