@noa Stephanus reintroduced the talmudic verse positions (but restarting the increments according to Langton's positions) β and in the NT "whenever his horse took a step" as the story goes. I like Langton's work just fine, I don't want the numbers to be globally removed and forgotten. I just appreciate the existence of reader's versions without them. My MSG doesn't have them either.
@noa One of my backburnered projects is to make a digital book that had the ordering and setup of the Message Remix Pause but with the Bibel 2000 Swedish translation, but with Tabb's and Peterson's commentary in English. Although Bibel 2000 sucks unfortunately.
@noa Bibliotheca's font is awesome and these are my most readable books but I wish that the ALV could also exist in digital so I could grep and sort it.
Religion? I love culturally appropriating all kinds of religions: https://idiomdrottning.org/whiskey-scotsman But no book is gonna have all the right answers. I don't wanna be staring at the finger when there's such a glorious moon out.
@selea thirdly (sorry for making three responses to one post β₯) we need respect for the entire ecosystem. (One of the problems that the externalities bug exacerbates.) If a GMO crop has high yields but depletes the soil for example, that might be something to be cautious around and mitigate. The more natural things are, the less we need to know; the more we meddle, the more we need a full view of all the interdependencies.
@selea I oppose some specific applications of GMO, not GMO as a general class.
Some of the applications I criticize include seed sterilizations (so farmers need to buy new seeds every year, which is a waste of money and shipping), and glyphosate desensitization (so crops are grown in monocultures and blasted with poison).
Generally, I wanna solve the Earth's problems, not argue semantics and set theory β₯
@strypey@selea I really hate patents and IP, and I hate the patents aspect of GMO so much that I'll even throw out the GMO baby with the patent bathwater. Proprietarization of the Earth is so blasphemous, it sickens me.
It is not a true fact that selection and reinforment in iterative algorithms can recreate all data structures that splicing algorithms can. Many have tried, with mediocre success.
@wim_v12e@clacke@strypey Sweden shares a "naval border" (is that a thing?) with Russia's Kaliningrad exclave, and our best friends Finland shares a land border. So it's like 3cm away.
@haskal@easrng Oh, I was specifically looking for open source apps! I've got a friend with Xcode who compiles some stuff for me but it's difficult to find good open source apps. Maybe there is an "awesome" list out there.
