Perhaps to have one foot and on occasion both feet over the line that separates what we think we know from what we know is impossible. :)

@HDE226868 Perhaps the community is more into creative/speculative thinking than others.

The part that applied IF it is real math, would be how to create goals and solutions to those goals as we .... do.
Jun 11, 2017 18:29
@JDługosz The article as some what about causality from different disciplines. I paid more attention to the Reductionist vs .... for a lack of a better concept, sentience. That after all is said and done a big question for us isn't it. Is what we think the results of things set in motion since the big bang or is it something .... else. I could say are our lives deterministic or do we have free will.
Jun 11, 2017 18:26
@JDługosz Philosophical differences. I Understand there are two sides to this coin. How does a site pay its bills is one side, the other side is information and solutions should not be for sale. As in they should be available to all.
Jun 11, 2017 15:14
@Bellerophon Maybe, I seem to remember recently seeing an article about something like that. This one may suggest a way to create Goal Seeking autonomously. But certainly highlights one difference between current AI and Sentience.
Jun 11, 2017 13:48
I suspect there is going to be a segment in there that ... indirectly will apply to AI.

I tend to see is paying each other by helping each other.
Jun 11, 2017 13:44
@JourneymanGeek And that works for me :)
Jun 11, 2017 13:44
@JourneymanGeek And I was never compensated for participating and I do not particularly buy into that model. BUT your point is valid about the cost.

@JourneymanGeek They died to me when they went commercial.

Shrug there are also temporal distortions, they are a bit more confusing.
Jun 5, 2017 15:04
@AndyD273 You have experienced a dimensional distortion, not to worry you will adapt.

@sphennings ?

@Green Is there an advantage to this? In the context that the Local Communities governance can be dealt with by the community being on the internet?

@JDługosz :) " “is yet question”?" is a mind to fingers edit of the first edition :( should have been "is a question"

Hey I really Like the Widow in "Into the badlands".
Jun 11, 2017 13:31
Ok No politics :)
Jun 11, 2017 13:30
Is that akin to "A democracy gets the government it deserves"?
Jun 11, 2017 13:28
I was toying with that swapping it around.

@Bellerophon "NEW MATH UNTANGLES THE MYSTERIOUS NATURE OF CAUSALITY" this may be something of interest to you - wired.com/story/…

@KyloRen You forget or do not care, this is a public chat room with anonymous people that can do things anonymously that affects all of us. We either try to do the right thing in this chat room or we beg to be closed .... again
Jun 11, 2017 13:08
And to be clear I joined late so I am clueless as to what went down, I do know the previous room was stated to have problems and maybe we should take that seriously.
Jun 11, 2017 13:06
There is swearing (shall I offend and say that is for the weak minded illiterates?) and there is insulting ones religion or values
Jun 11, 2017 13:05
Basicaly it comes down to is this a community chat room or your personal chat room.
Jun 7, 2017 05:29
@Edlothiad Shrug It is back to normal :)

@Mithrandir I seem to recall there is a shower scene (through a mostly foged door) other than that, I do no recall anything that was more unfamily friendly than the series
Jun 3, 2017 18:26
@Gallifreyan Going from top left to bottom right, 3 and 5 are what I would choose.
Jun 3, 2017 18:24
@Ixrec Not sure I have seen it in any movie and I never really read the comics, but the Animated series pretty much cast the cape as a defensive tool. Not that the animated series is all that good (except the reboot one where Bruce is old and helps a High School Kid be Batman, that was pretty good)
Jun 3, 2017 18:21
@Ixrec In the animated series he also appears to use it for hiding and .... Bullet Proof?
Jun 3, 2017 18:18
@Gallifreyan That is about my thinking of a Cape on Wonder Woman but given her Super Strength freeing it wouldn't be a problem but why would anyone want a hindrance that like that in the first place? :)
Jun 3, 2017 18:12
@Ixrec I am not disagreeing I am saying the question, based on the original movie, the questioner accepts the symbols as Earth Centric (Sun Pyramid) without question. Then if the Ancients did make it then that becomes the answer
Jun 3, 2017 18:09
@Ixrec The question is more about the original Movie not the series but gets expanded to the series in answers
Jun 3, 2017 18:08
@Gallifreyan To me this is just one of those threads that are really over thought. Given the gate is made by an unknown source, then why assume symbols are Earth Centric?
Jun 3, 2017 18:03
@Gallifreyan For Batman I suppose so but for Superman, Super Girl not really and why would Wonder Woman have one?
Jun 3, 2017 18:00
@Gallifreyan So, is there a purpose or function the Cape Serves?
Jun 3, 2017 13:33
@Ixrec I see and understand the distinction your making
Jun 3, 2017 13:28
@Ixrec That is of course the lesson I am taking from this, to not down vote such answers and save the -1 rep for answers that can become better.
Jun 3, 2017 13:27
@Ixrec Ok and again thanks for the information.
Jun 3, 2017 13:26
@Ixrec He he then why hasn't it been deleted? Not that I care about the -1 but it is blatantly not an answer ....
Jun 3, 2017 13:24
@Ixrec It is strange such a blatant Non Answer would carry penalties though but now I know and can manage it :)
Jun 3, 2017 13:18
@Ixrec Hum, Ok, I have not seen that before but thanks for the information.
Jun 3, 2017 13:16
Why and how did I get a -1 Rep change for down voting this answer? scifi.stackexchange.com/questions/160176/…

@Donald.McLean I renounced my Earth Citizenship a while back and am trying to make my case for Earth to allow me to leave .... and a means to do so .... and keep me alive until a spacefaring species will take to a Population Center.
 
Jun 11, 2017 13:11
@KyloRen Me personally face to face go ahead I could not care less, for the chat room, that is an escalation that leads us back to the cause.
Jun 11, 2017 13:09
@KyloRen Again is this your private chat room to insult people (generalized not you specifically) or is it a place were we should try to respect each other
Jun 11, 2017 13:03
@KyloRen And who decides who is a pansy? You?
Jun 11, 2017 13:01
@KyloRen Just curious, so who gets to decide where the line is drawn? Just you?
