      I always thought the idea that consciousness was energy was interesting. I used to dismiss it due to new age style obfuscation. but the idea that consciousness is just a waveform of energy that is repeated and that our ideas and language was just a propagation of that information kind of gave me new respect for the idea behind what a soul truly is. imagine a standing wave pattern in a harbor. perhaps that's all it is a standing wave pattern trapped into a repetition inside a body made of matter.

If anything, a lot of the older scientists actually approached science with the idea in mind that they were 'encoding creation,' and that to ignore the details and laws that define it would be akin to disrespecting its value and significance.

    I've been a passionate 'Futurist' my whole life and THIS was the single most fascinating and fantastic predictive concept I've ever heard for how advanced Civilizations in the Milky Way might contact each other and then trade information in a 'dataome' economy that connects and cross-fertilizes neighbours across light years!

    My pet theory is that the vast majority of advanced civilizations unlock the power of the atom, destroying one another many times over. It's so simple, clean, and proceeds along general physical lines applicable to anyone who lives in our universe. We also barely, just barely, if one knows the history, made it out of the 20th century without nuclear obliteration, and its still a very real threat we live with everyday regardless of the particular politics of any given time since.

    Some of these unnerving things could really be a lot worse than we would think. The idea that a hostile meme could hurt us may sound ridiculous, but that irreverence is mostly based on ignorance. Humans are suckers for taking up ideas, especially ideas that can give them 'purpose.' There's an SCP where there's a hostile memetic force, supernatural in this case, but still, it tries to spread itself by overtaking other species by completely supplanting their thinking with its own. Or at least that's how I understood it. The video game Control comes close to exploring this as well.
    And then there's Warhammer 40k. There's a reddit post that explored the dangers of technology, and posited that the reason why the 'machine spirit' has to be appeased, is because all technology, every piece of equipment, is infected with all sorts of manner of self-reproducing malicious code, hundred of data bits that creates micro-consciousnesses that all behave in their own way. Where our technology may malfunction due to one error or another, technology in 40k does so because a malicious piece of code does not feel appreciated. Imagine your coffee machine has an AI, and you insulted your coffee machine, so now it won't make coffee for you until you apologize to it. Now make it erratic and imagine there are a thousand such AIs in it. Have fun.

      But this tempts one to assume that balck holes are regions of space where there is the least amount of information. Doesn't it?
      If you just take a piece of space and starve it, as much as nature allows, of information that's where a black hole is necessarily formed.
      You can make a BH by gravitational collapse, or you can suck out the maximum amount of information out of a region of space.
      These are equivalent ways of doing the same thing. No?

    @davidschaftenaar6530 6 месяцев назад

    I once heard the phrase "People don't have ideas, ideas have people". That aligns well with the concept of a dataome.
    Dataomes don't quite have the ability to metabolise energy or to excrete waste products to the environment. Those are things that something has to be able to do, to meet the common definition of a living thing. Instead, I'd say that dataomes are actually closer to another type of thing that falls in between living and inanimate: Viruses.
    Like dataomes, viruses don't metabolise or excrete but are reliant on a host's ability to do so, to enabe their reproduction. Like viruses, dataomes are symbiotic with true living things. The difference? Where viruses are parasitic, dataomes are mutualistic; Viruses necessarily harm their host, dataomes don't. Dataomes are beneficial. It's why they're deliberately preserved, grown and reproduced by their host.

    Greg Egan in his novel "Schild's Ladder" depicts a human civilisation with a Slow Time system. Everyone on the planet slows down their time to wait while one of them is traveling on another planet at the speed of light. Humans are immortal in the story, so they don't mind. Without the Slowdown, centuries would pass on the planet, while the traveler would only live a few weeks in their relative time since they travel at the speed of light by sending their mind by interstellar download. And at their return from travel, their families and friends would have lived entire lives without them. They would have changed so much, they would be like different people. So they use the Slowdown to wait so everybody's time remains synchronized.
    Two kids keep getting out of the Slowdown by readjusting their inner perception of time to accelerate it. They go play and do mischief while the adults are all slowed down lol.
    It's an amazing hard sci fi novel btw, it's extremely intelligent and complex, with tons of super hard science :D

    Given how far we've come in just a short hundred or so years I believe that what we find important now may become obsolete as we evolve. I'd really like to know what we'll be like in ten thousand years

    I consider only semantic information as real information. Information without meaning is just background noise. That's why I'm not worried about black holes :)

    None of you noticed the uselessness of dreaming of expanding across the universe. This pod cast made me realize that the point of existence is the enjoyment of today and making sure that everyone alive today can do the same because conquering and exploring is simply a way of loosing what you already have. If we spend millions of years colonizing the galaxy how does that actually make anything better today? What is the point of colonizing the universe for the people living today?
    Aliens would destroy us as soon as they see us gain any knowledge which will allow us to do to the universe what we have done the our earthly paradise. We are the universe.

    Idk don’t know if it is awesome or frightening that I liked futurism and JMG’s shows and they became friends and then I started watching Dr. Keating’s show when it started and here he is. I’m just gonna take it as good and not care about any possible RUclips manipulation of society and individuals.

    Could the dataome be or become an intelligence of its own? I imagine them having an infancy as writing developed and spread information with writers of information being like neurons. I had the idea of the dataome finally reaching a point where the internet lets them finally function in human real time and they begin conversations with us. I also thought perhaps the East West divide of human culture might be analogous to the two hemispheres of the brain. I also imagine them reassuring us they have recorded history's great moral philosophers and peacemakers in their memory, as well as less pleasant things like thoughts of the worst tyrants and psychopaths of history.

    There's a point where constant acceleration gets weird for anyone trying to life a life as any kind of bulk biological being. Digitization is probably easy for anyone who could enable 80ish years of one G and it's quite likely necessary. If you get within hundreds of miles per hour of C then travel from point to point within your ship is impacted. Get within a few tens of miles per hour and simply walking forward in it's direction of travel (or hopping if decks are perpendicular) would slow your own personal relative time by a significant amount compared to another coming the other way or even standing still. This would even effect electronics but not nearly as much and it would be much easier to arrange in thin sheets perpendicular to the direction of travel.
