jim bell is a hero for posting about post-quantum fido and a pi formula. ultraram is cool too and professor rat always mixes in something rare and needed. and grarpamp got chip vulnerabilities long before jim and i did.

every now and then, ever since the zombification idea, i pass a graveyard again. i spent some time in a wooded graveyard that was quite beautiful, lots of serene corner areas ...
my interest in graveyards originally started when i was supposed to be killed, something seemed to save me and make it more a joke, when i was in a heavy trance i would sometimes want to dig a hole and lay in it . long ago. much more torturous then. now medicine gets to keep everyone alive forever i hear? or do we come back to life and do it ourselves?
anyway, after i joked about putting servos in dead people's joints on list earlier things shifted and there was more of a robotics focus. the idea was to make robots that danced on the graves of dead people (since we could bring them back to life but aren't) and it would i guess be a suitable zombie apocalypse to see, quite clear, then i realized how depressing it would be, pretty important to realize such things. sad the cool idea was evil. need supported ideas that aren't evil! also need projects! it lets me do more if it makes it evil, it's confusing, dissociative.
anyway again, i think the thoughts would collapse together around the idea of making systems that accurately speak for the dead like in the ender's game series. the zombie idea ignored the brain, considering only reanimating the body, but i've worked with information all my life, not biology and medicine.
it seems similar to making a system that proves everything that is true, something clearly we're all trying to pop into existence in some way or another ...
... some thoughts misplaced ... maybe back to the dancing robots ... i made a dancing robot once ...
anyway a lot of people seem to feel humanity is really about stories, that this separates us from other creatures, the depth and quickness with which we relate what happened elsewhere, at another time, or what might happen [and how we feel about it, which are more deep stories]. bees dance stories, and humans have billion dollar box office movies ...
[i was also thinking how the lack of information stores information so thoroughly as well. this is present in evolution: if a predator eats all the purple mongooses and they evolve to have the same color as their environment, the predator's behavior, and the lives of all those purple mongooses, are shown in the coats of the mongooses that survive .... you could consider what influences produced various fossils specifically the way they are, and derive further theoretical fossils, and plot their possibility, like mapping a brain from partial information ...
[a theory of spirit is that there is always new kinds of information, meaning there will always be some way in the future to discern what of importance really happened, that we could never think of today
