From the "Mind's I" to the "Strange Loop," this episode challenges you to see yourself not as a collection of cells, but as a self-reinforcing pattern of information that has mistakenly concluded it is a solid 'thing'.#consciousness

Description: In this provocative 40-minute deep dive, we deconstruct the "bio-chauvinistic" bias that insists consciousness is a monopoly of biological cells. Using the "Domino Logic" thought experiment, we explore the paradox of downward causality—how abstract mathematical truths and high-level desires can physically dictate the behavior of microscopic atoms.#consciousness

Are You the Carbon or the Pattern?
In this 55-minute podcast, we explore Douglas Hofstadter and Daniel Dennett’s The Mind’s I. We are moving beyond simple biology to ask the ultimate question: Are you the physical atoms (the Carbon), or are you the information moving through them (the Pattern)?

A Quick Look at 'The Mind’s Eye'
Intro
"Behind your eyes, there is a feeling of a solid, continuous 'you'—the pilot steering the ship. But what if that feeling is actually a beautiful, complex illusion? In this quick 8-minute exploration of the classic text The Mind’s Eye by Douglas Hofstadter and Daniel Dennett(see ALT txt)

Over the past year, I’ve been writing a series of thought experiments on wave dynamics, perception, and anomalous phenomena.
They’re not scientific papers - they’re invitations to think sideways. Curious? Good! 👇

Maybe @Dockers opted for the misspelled "TruTemp" #branding because #philosophy had already taken "Truetemp".
Aside: I recently published new data about #thoughtExperiments like Truetemp:

Discovered via Calishat Snaps: Monkeys.zip. From the About page: “Monkeys.zip, aka The Monkey Project, is a live, crowdsourced experiment based on the Infinite Monkey Theorem. If you haven’t heard of the Infinite Monkey Theorem, it goes something like this: Infinite Monkeys on Infinite Typewriters will eventually write all the works of Shakespeare. It’s a thought experiment that’s been […]

"Why Time Travel is Impossible"
by RealLifeLorePresents brief descriptions of the classic #Grandfather & #Bootstrap #Paradoxes.
Such #thoughtexperiments give rise to apparently illogical scenarios, including the #HitlerParadox, also mentioned. Although, none absolutely nullifies all possibility of #interdimensional transport. #Video is ~ 7 mins long with a sponsored ad beginning at ~ 6 mins (and 12k+ comments!) -

A lemmy discussion about some GTA exec wanting to price games based on per hour value got me thinking, what is the per-hour value you are willing to pay for entertainment?
I guess there could be a consensus in terms of percentage of income but is there a specific dollar-value that can be calculated as a baseline?
