Leibniz's two types of existence based on the two types of logic
Brahma is a version of existence, but it doesn't permit actual scientific
experiments.
According to Leibniz, there is necessary (permanent) or mental existence and
contingent or actual existence. But mental existence can only be de

Suppose that in 1997 you had a very difficult problem to solve, so
difficult that it would take Deep Blue, the supercomputer that beat the
best human chess player in the world, 18 years to solve, what should you
do? You'd do better to let Moore's law do all the heavy lifting and leave
Deep Blue alo

John, that was a clever cartoon, which of course leaves the viewer seeing
"humanity' as the hero. The humanity character was too busy sitting under a
tree, to help resolve misery and death. Of course, he could have been working

As I tried to comment in the other thread concerning chess: it's not just
about power, it's also about quality of coding. Just one fresh opening, a
novel variation or line in the mid game, a bug in the code, one position
falsely assessed, and all computing power in the universe will still lose

With hindsight 9/11 was a good thing to have happened, it ended up
exposing the fascist Neo-Cons for what they were. The Neo-Con ideology
was defeated on the battlegrounds of Iraq. It is sad that it had to
