Exploring the fascinating intersection of technology, physics, philosophy, and spirituality
Planetary intelligence is here defined as the acquisition, retention, and goal-oriented deployment of knowledge by an integrated life–environment–technology complex operating at global scale and coupled to geophysical boundary conditions over geological time (adapted from Frank et al., 2022).
Steven Milanese recounts his eight-month quest to transform a sluggish WordPress site into a self-hosted “code cathedral,” fusing Calabi-Yau physics, pastoral AI and privacy-first engineering into a fast Next.js sanctuary of code, cognition, and contemplation—all while defending user dignity online.
This manual empowers erudite members of the Polymath Society to breathe new life into Intel‑based Apple® Macintosh® computers through the deployment of modern GNU/Linux distributions. It delivers production‑ready, hardware‑verified guidance—from risk assessment to advanced optimization.
Venture past four familiar dimensions toward the Calabi-Yau manifold—an elegant six-fold geometry where hidden symmetries whisper of reality’s source code. This teaser sketches the intellectual odyssey awaiting in Understanding Multidimensional Spaces.
AI coding assistants are simple: a model, loop, and tools. I’ll build one in TypeScript with Bun.js to debug code, like fixing a weather script’s bad data. This blend of human intent and machine action is the future of coding.
In this comprehensive exploration, we delve into how intelligence emerges from the intricate interplay of physics, biology, and cognition. Drawing on interdisciplinary insights from neuroscience, complexity science, and evolutionary theory, we reveal how complex adaptive systems spontaneously give r
Contemporary scientific and philosophical paradigms have achieved remarkable explanatory success in domains ranging from particle physics to neurobiology, yet fundamental questions persist at the boundaries of our current frameworks. Problems such as the ‘hard problem’ of consciousness, the origins
