American tourists came to a cafe,
a small bird came to eat some crumbs. They stomped it to death and laughed.
Is this normal in the US?

Ramon Llull invented a Dionysian-Bonaventurian combinatorial art. Yet it is, not Llull, but more precisely Gottfried Leibniz who, in his 'Ars Combinatoria' (1666), collapsed Llull's participatory combinatorics of alphabetic symbols for the divine 'figures' into a flat calculation of numbers extrinsically correlated to predicates. Leibniz had thus rendered predication as the multiplication of symbolically coded numbers, similar to how in digital computers binary numerical codes index graphical assemblages of qualitative expressions. To the contrary, Athanasius Kirchner argued that Leibniz's reduction of divine attributes to quantitative combinatorics emptied them of their dynamic processions of participatory arcs, falsely simulated a separate atomic alphabet of prime numbers that ultimately derives from and is grounded in the participation of the divine Logos, and cancels the discovery of analysis under a tautological recycling of simple analytical equality. Although Kirchner did not read Leibniz's dissertation 'Ars Combinatoria', when he wrote his Ars Magna 'Sciendi Sive Combinatoria' (1669), his elaboration of Llull's combinatorial art into an encyclopaedic system (pansophism) introduced an alternative cybernetic calculation of combinatorial knowledge. Later, Ivo Salzinger, in his Preface to Llull's collected works, argued that Llull's 'dignities' were rooted in the metaphysical architecture of the divine intellect; that Leibniz's reduction of symbolic letters to calculable prime numbers cancelled their dynamic of participation; and that Llull had incorporated into his 'dignities' the virtual operation of all such calculations. Through F.C. Oetinger, Salzinger's critique of Leibniz's combinatorial rationalism would influence Novalis's 'Magical Idealism', F.X.v. Baader, G.W.F. Hegel (who critically reviews Llull and Leibniz in his Lectures on the History of Philosophy), and, through him, all modern European philosophy - especially as it concerns suspicions and critiques of the combinatorial lines of logic and cybernetics.

The Bitter Lesson and Artificial Life. Everything we know about (1) scaling laws in AI (2) how to discover the ideal abstraction basin in scientific simulations suggest that the next big breakthrough in ALIfe will come from massive training runs first and massive theoretical breakthroughs second.

Right now true wisdom is attainable by simply reading enough philosophy and thinking. After AGI this will no longer be the case. Don't miss out. Read, read, read.

People that are not X judge X-ness by some extrinsic associations some people that are X have and create a false concept of X-ness.

For meaning, there are only two modes: either it works in the interest of truth, or it is left to its own contingency, where it becomes reduced to the enjoyment it produces in the mind.
