| | | | | I'm getting tired of writing about free will, as what I'm really interested in is determinism of the physics sort, and, as far as we know, determinism is true except in the realm of quantum mechanics-where it may still be true, but probably not. So let me lump quantum mechanics and other physical laws together... | |

| | | | | (see also pdf version) Quantum computing is one of the most exciting developments of computer science in the last decades. But this concept is not without its critics, often known as "quantum computing skeptics" or "skeptics" for short. The debate on quantum computing can sometimes confuse the physical and mathematical aspects of this question,... | |

| | | | | Last year, in a series of posts, I gave you a tour of quantum field theory, telling you some of what weunderstand and some of what we don't. I still haven't told you the role that string theory plays inquantum field theory today, but I am going to give you a brief tour of string... | |

| | | [AI summary] The text discusses a framework for understanding subjective time as a causal network of local binding connections. It explores how different states of consciousness, such as those induced by psychedelics, can alter this network, leading to various experiences of time, including time loops, moments of eternity, and timelessness. The framework also connects these experiences to emotional valence and the structure of consciousness, suggesting that symmetry and regularity in the network contribute to positive emotional states. The text concludes by emphasizing the potential of this approach as a starting point for further research into time perception and consciousness. | ||
