Peter Thiel is dangerous [1].

You are dangerous [3] (to the coral and the ocean).

Don't mess with the planet until you are qualified and have the consent of the mayority of the planet.

Start with learning ethics. And become a scientist, at 16 years old you have not yet learned to think properly [1,2].

You are from Kazakhstan, not know for its rigorous science process for the last 100 years.

> connect with experts

Only science is the expert. Individual scientists are not.

>who could shape, redirect or improve this idea.

Publish your scientific results in a paper and have them reproduced, peer reviewed and debated

This might be the breakthrough we also have been working on [1] for over 20 years. It would be even better if Avicena wouldn't drive the led array and detector array with high power 10 Gbps SerDes. Even better if you align a blue led array with lenses to a detector array on a second chip: free space optics [2].

I would love to join you at Avicena and work on your breakthrough instead of just acquiring the IP from you in a few years.

I have a bunch of these Apple Mouses for sale


I'm sorry, did you just unironically say "mouses"? -_-


Apple Mice. English is my second language


Ah, okay -- sorry, thought you were being dense.


A bit unscientific that they don't cite the original Intelligent RAM (IRAM) sources from 1997:

https://scholar.google.com/scholar?hl=en&as_sdt=0%2C5&q=iram...


I also strongly suspect that there are earlier sources.

However, IRAM looks like compute near memory where they will add an ALU to the memory chip. compute in memory is about using the memory array itself.

To be fair, CIM looked much less appealing before the advent of deep-learning with crazy vector lengths. So people rather tried to build something that allows more fine grained control of the operations.


>I also strongly suspect that there are earlier sources.

You are right, I remember 1972-ish papers where they did compute in memory. I just couldn't locate links to these papers in a few minutes.


I have one in pristine condition for sale (in Europe, willing to ship worldwide).


We usually ask around on the NANOG mailing list. Someone on that list usually already knows the contact method or a person at an ISP, datacenter or hyperscaler.

Erwtensoep is called pea soup in English.

Actually this canal used to be a stinking city sewer and was less murky green than fecal brown for most of its 2000 year existence.

The fish came back when the sewage was removed in the last 35 years. The green color is from the healthy algal soup.

The stench in the summer was so bad that for hundreds of years the rich build beautiful country houses and castles in the woods east of the town.

Let's hope we don't see any 'brown trout' in there :-)

Seriously, though, I love a nice green algae for some good old oxygen.

I just saw some all along the shore of a small tributary at a local park that had tons of little (but not tiny) bubbles all over it. I thought it might be oxygen.

Such a lovely florescent lime green.


>tons of little (but not tiny) bubbles >Such a lovely florescent lime green

Quite probably oxygen from the plants and not methane bubbles.

>small tributary at a local park

Quite probably where I was a boy scout and had my first kiss


"It is the destiny of computers to become interactive intellectual amplifiers for all people pervasively networked worldwide."

JCR Licklider initially called it the intergalactic network, now know as the internet.

>We can build something else

Some of us tried (with internet fish swimming around) :

Far Out! Thanks.

We could use some Complex Adaptive System architecture to create galaxies. Or we could call them Gestalts instead of CAS.

In gestalts entities, use rules to interact with a read/write message bus.

Ants. Pheromone trails. Write when you find food, not if you don't.

We have the pieces for this. Entities - people. We have a r/w bus - the internet. What we don't have are rules. We can think of rules - the kind Wolfram talks about in NKofS - instead as a language. A language in the sense of Sapir-Whorf. "Twitter and Tear Gas" (Zeynep Tufecki) is a good illustration of Sapir-Whorf in internet languages. (Available as a pdf I think)

That language is the missing link. In Real Life there is a language for collaboration. Perhaps the task is to understand the elements of IRL collaboration and then transpose it.

One could make some guesses about fundamentals. As we have all discovered, one fundamental is trust. IRL Trust is identity and reputation based. With many caveats. Perhaps we could start by considering A New Kind of Identity. ?


Depending on the smell of the day the fish will hover (hang around, linger, float?) in the frame.
