@Vrouvrou show that each is a subset of the other?

what up nerds
Sep 21, 2015 14:56
but i gotta run, you can check my website and research statement for details, if you want. bye
Sep 21, 2015 14:56
@BalarkaSen algorithmic randomness, which in my case is like probability theory with computability constraints/considerations
Sep 21, 2015 14:49
but i suppose 'pathological' is relative, @BalarkaSen
Sep 21, 2015 14:48
@BalarkaSen I think it's not pathological. Cantor space, the infinite binary branching tree, is essentially where all my research is done
Sep 21, 2015 14:44
@BalarkaSen I think you should try to prove it right now. Wanna?
Sep 21, 2015 14:43
is his blog/writing good?
Sep 21, 2015 14:43
you mean "Eliezer Yudkowsky", @morphic?
Sep 21, 2015 14:43
i just googled him
Sep 21, 2015 14:43
i don't think so
Sep 21, 2015 14:39
(i suppose)
Sep 21, 2015 14:39
good
Sep 21, 2015 14:37
ya, i think it is. but probably they suck. i've gleaned that these so-called 'rationalists' are just pseudo-intellectuals merely trying to provide arguments for voting for the democratic party, @morphic
Sep 21, 2015 14:36
what's a rationalist, @morphic?
Sep 21, 2015 14:35
life, poetry, bicycles, russian literature, cereal, french kissing, air jordans, freestyle rappiing, the pope, nihilism, et at. @morphic
Sep 21, 2015 14:34
@morphic
Sep 21, 2015 14:34
so you only wanna blog about math?
Sep 21, 2015 14:33
do you have one?
Sep 21, 2015 14:33
@morphic
Sep 21, 2015 14:33
no way man, blogs are so June 2015
Sep 21, 2015 14:29
i'm fine-ish, you?
Sep 21, 2015 14:28
does that mean you're on drugs, @morphic?

sounds like a nice talk, @MaryStar
May 24, 2015 22:26
elaborate, @MaryStar?
May 24, 2015 21:51
how did it go, @MaryStar?
May 19, 2015 01:37
@MaryStar
May 19, 2015 01:37
i.e. a violation of the Church-Turing thesis
May 19, 2015 01:36
you could ask them if one could diagonalize out of the Turing computable functions to get a function that is intuitively computable but not Turing computable
May 19, 2015 01:15
ya sure, @MaryStar
May 19, 2015 00:15
but right now i gotta go eat, @MaryStar, so I won't answer until later
May 19, 2015 00:15
ask away!
May 19, 2015 00:15
of course
May 18, 2015 23:46
yes that is similar in that they're both diagonalizations, @MaryStar
May 18, 2015 23:32
which do you mean?
May 18, 2015 23:32
@MaryStar, there are many proofs that use the universalt TM.

and i use gmail chat
May 18, 2015 22:14
you can email me, [email protected], if you want
May 18, 2015 22:14
i gotta go, @MaryStar
May 18, 2015 22:08
@MaryStar
May 18, 2015 22:08
what do you mean? There IS a universal Turing machine.
May 18, 2015 21:55
do you know the diagonalization way of constructing a computable function that isn't PR?
May 18, 2015 21:54
ok
May 18, 2015 21:52
(i mean, of course it seems easy to me since i've studied these things already)
May 18, 2015 21:52
@MaryStar
May 18, 2015 21:52
who's the audience?
May 18, 2015 21:52
seems too easy
