  1. ones and zeroes (not the airplane) on There Is No Single Instant In Time · · Score: 1

    the archilles and turle and all the TIME related stuff is (age old) propaganda.

    consider a really stupid society (two tousand or more years ago). how to make them work and not go hitting woman on the head and dragging them to their cave (and getting the girl for yourself)?

    invent a paradox, so to speak a program that runs on gray matter (sic). if you get them to think about this in a language (say greek) it will compile and run!!!

    now you get all this user time, because the user/slave doesn't trust his own instict but a program.

    we do not speak any language when we are born. we have to learn it and then we can't forget it! (if we are confronted with it all the time.)

    the beautiy is that the language itself doesn't not allow for a solution!

    consider it same like the law we use today. it origins are from the roman (i just believe this. david hume would have me on a plater!)
    same applies to language. it's an invention and the syntax/grammer/etc. has stayed the same because our society is still the same. humans have yet to undergo a revolution to percive time differently/correctly.(?)

    also: time is the same for everybody. our heart goes around 55-80 bps (beats per second). we percieve it the same.

    all this said, why are we bother about these paradoxes?

    do we ACTUALLY believe we can miss something? did nature construct us STUPID?
    i don't (don't want to) believe so. we are acctually very beautiful creatures and this (the form; just think about a hand!) gives me strength to believe it is correct.

    like one philosopher said "language is a game" (Wittgenstein).

    what acctually botherrs me more is the origin of life. i believe it started in the ocean at very deep depths. like the canyon around the philipin islands. the pressure at 11 km below seasurface should be very interesting. :)
    i was just imagining that at these depths water must feel very newtonian :) so to speak SOLID. for molecules this might be interesting.
    it's not frozen (?) and still liquid. dark and very little/no radiation -adding- what happens when a neutrino decaise their?

    it is difficult to relais (communicat) to someone how i percieve the world in a language that has certain attributs ;)

    the eskimos have 10 (more?) words (not attributs)
    for snow. its seems we IMPHESIZE on what helps us survive ...

    maybe it's the "i don't want to die" that makes these physicists/philosopher think so much about TIME.
    maybe their LIBIDO (Freud) is abit over a healty limit :)

    more beer! less talk! more games!

  2. Re:Hrmm - UBERnet! on Saving the Net · · Score: 1

    Very cool idea!
    had an idea too ...
    call it UBERnet layered over the
    hard internet.

    using UDP to broadcast your UBERnet address.
    speed:

    "Slammer's attack was ruthless and quick,
    spreading hundreds of times faster than
    the Code Red virus or Nimda worm. Yet it
    started with a single killer packet. The
    tiny worm hit its first victim at 12:30 am
    Eastern standard time. The machine - a
    server running Microsoft SQL - instantly
    started spewing millions of Slammer clones,
    targeting computers at random. By 12:33 am,
    the number of slave servers in Slammer's
    replicant army was doubling every 8.5 seconds."

    run a UEBERnet name server process:
    it tells what ports you got to offer.
    it registers about 50 user (max) and parent
    UEBERNET name servers (UnS).

    you start your UBERnet client which looks
    for the closesed/youngest UnS (he's your BOSS)
    and registers your name with it.
    the UBERnet client starts the UnS locally
    (now your the youngest).
    Uebernet client will service request from
    the webbrowser etc ...

    the oldest UnS is the ROOT-UEBERnet (like beeing ROOT DNS). if this one goes off-line, which tends to happen with DIAL-UP users, the next oldest one becomes BOSS etc.

    consider the Server-Client tandem a productiv
    WORM or VIRUS! GET INFECTED! ;)

    this would be cool because you could get a
    name: uebernet.pirhana or just PIRHANA!
    and you could keep it even if you drop offline.
    you would re-register with UBERnet as soon as you go on-line again (with an new IP-adresse!).
    the network will remember you.

    guessing:
    200 million user-names, 60 million dial-up
    user using UBERnet on-line at any given time.
    every UnS would just have to service/remember
    3.33_ names ...

    it would be interesting to see
    the LIST of UBERnet-names flow around the world,
    because when america goes to bed asia is waking up(?)

    this would be a great distributed computing experiment/example.

    we would be free from registering www-addresses and static/hard IP. but still have all the benefits of both. you could even run your own SMTP/APACHE/IRC/FTP/... services!
    you get
    me@pirhana.UNet!
    www.pirhana.UNet!

    dynamicBIND, yeah! staticBIND, buh!

    Don't flame and tell me it's UBERkill ;) be productive!

    why this hasn't happend yet? ask the goverment (NSA, FBI, CIA, carnivor etc.)
