A quotation from Eric Hoffer

The truth seems to be that propaganda on its own cannot force its way into unwilling minds; neither can it inculcate something wholly new; nor can it keep people persuaded once they have ceased to believe. It penetrates only into minds already open, and rather than instill opinion it articulates and justifies opinions already present in the minds of its recipients. The gifted propagandist brings to a boil ideas and passions already simmering in the minds of his hearers. he echoes their innermost feelings. Where opinion is not coerced, people can be made to believe only in what they already “know.”

Eric Hoffer (1902-1983) American writer, philosopher, longshoreman
True Believer: Thoughts on the Nature of Mass Movements, Part 3, ch. 14, § 83 (3.14.83) (1951)

A quotation from Samuel Johnson

To be of no church is dangerous. Religion, of which the rewards are distant, and which is animated only by faith and hope, will glide by degrees out of the mind unless it be invigorated and reimpressed by external ordinances, by stated calls to worship, and the salutary influence of example.

Samuel Johnson (1709-1784) English writer, lexicographer, critic
Lives of the Most Eminent English Poets, “Milton” (1781)

Plinked out a new song on the #guitar last night.
Kinda Pink Floyd-ish.. needs a little more work and then to the mixer so maybe on my next days off I'll have another #song to post.

Transferring the various stages of Damasio's theory of consciousness 1:1 into concrete #schematics for #deep #learning. To this end, strategies such as #feed-forward connections, #recurrent #connections in the form of #reinforcement learning and #unsupervised learning are used to simulate the #biological #processes of the #neuronal #networks.
