The Systemic Cause of Pandemics

Image
These three videos explain what I wrote in this post:  Plan B™ For Covexit . The environment in which a virus evolves in modern man is an artificial environment created by our efforts to innoculate ourselves against threats such as flu, tuberculosis and other diseases. So in man , the viruses which survive the artificial selection processes of human virologists are the ones we don't know anything about, because we only just created them and we don't know what they could do next. See  Hysteria and Ignorance Kills  and also  Joe Scott on William James Sidis . For more on the natural evolution of viruses, see  This is A Big Part of Our Problem and  Coronavirus A War Against Humanity? How to fight a pandemic: be like water. See  Using Probabilistic Reasoning in Epidemiology  and this: For more on the information engineering applications of control theory (at  3 minutes 56 seconds ) see  Element 14 Learning Videos...

Ben Eater on Running a Breadboard at 1MHz

Image
It works fine! This is a really useful video showing lots of basics of digital electronics. See  https://eater.net/6502  for kits and videos. Here's an idea for a little project based on Ben's kits. Make a high-speed bidirectional communications link between two asynchronously-clocked 6502 CPUs using a couple of blocks of, say, 2KB SRAM (on separate chips) which have their address logic controlled by the outputs of the 6522 PIAs in such a way that each CPU can write data onto one of the chips and then switch that chip onto the address and data bus of the other CPU. You will need a few tri-state buffer elements to do this. How about doing a PCB link module with, say, an ICE-40 FPGA implementing this functionality and providing a pair of header-pins that could be used to bridge two breadboards? The next idea is to design a PCB with four 6502 CPUs, each connected via one of these link modules to two others in a square, and having four sets of headers around the edge ...

The B Movie Economy

Image
I made the following before I saw this: This is what I think: And it's not just the movies, it's everything you do that's crap. It's all just meaningless garbage and stupid lies from weak people who don't know anything else better. Here's an illustrative example. Ambition is nothing to do with becoming a millionaire and changing the world, it's about doing pointless stupid exercises you set for yourself. Watch this: Then this: See  Hopi Prophecies and the Fifth World of the Australian Aboriginals , then this: Then this: Then this (see this discussion about the actual ending , and this on the director's cut ): Then this: And then congratulate yourselves on how well you're doing. See  What is the Sixth Estate? The Sixth Estate is a new genre of cinema. The motivation for the film is the overwhelming sense of frustration felt by scientists and engineers when ...
