Here are more examples of moving in latent space that demonstrates movements based on information density.

In stalking the wild pendulum, information density is talked about, e.g.
https://image.nostr.build/49dfda903e7786b651b2eed9185fc519429789b33b05e7f4b31d49a383f44932.jpg
But also in other parts of the book.
I just have this perspective based on my background in data science that maps the spirit to these sets of components in latent space, which are basically these components built from eigenvectors sorted by their variance or information density.
The way this works mathematically is well explained here, where the author starts out with:
Imagine a big family dinner where everybody starts asking you about PCA. First, you explain it to your great-grandmother; then to your grandmother; then to your mother; then to your spouse; finally, to your daughter (a mathematician). Each time the next person is less of a layman. Here is how the conversation might go.
https://stats.stackexchange.com/questions/2691/making-sense-of-principal-component-analysis-eigenvectors-eigenvalues#140579
And then finally in the video above the talks about correlation vs causality, which talks about movements in latent space, which is to say, given a set of components, say you had the pca algorithm generate 5 components. Now the set is sorted by information density, and say each one is represented as a slider. As you move the slider from left to right, each slider represents a move in latent space that changes the output and/or outcome, in the form of a transformation.
When applied to a dataset of faces for example, the first slider might be the hair style, the second my be their smile, third might be their eye expression, the last one might not do anything noticeable because of its low information density meaning that it has no real impact on the output and/or outcome.
Why does this matter?
In the second video he talks about moving your x and nothing happens on y, which is the output and/or outcome. Let's add some detail to that.
We observed a doll move, and we are trying to understand how it works based on our observations. We haven't built a map yet of what makes the doll move (the latent space).
Let's say we want a smile. We've seen an example of smiling so we know it's possible, but we can't find the dimension that applies to that. We try changing various input vectors, but nothing happens to the output and/or outcome that produces a smile. So we begin mapping out this black box, trying to change different inputs to see what happens on the output.
We write down what we learn, e.g.
https://image.nostr.build/95d9d9eea4c597c66b564cfae2656142b5147e85b7ed6ea2bb580226daabe421.jpg
We still don't understand the coord.
Then, somehow, someway, we get that ah hah moment. We discover the cord.

It was in another dimension, a higher dimension.
This is what it feels like to me learning about your work. You have found the cord!

So that was an explanation without using terms like eigenvectors. Technically I think the correct contrast is higher ordered eigemvectors vs lower ordered eigenvectors, in a practical sense with the PCA, SVD algorithm, or some form of factor analysis.

OK. I will attempt to explain the underlying mechanism in a way that explains how easy this 'severance' is to repair in theory.
1. Understand sympathetic resonance
2. Understand rhythm entrainment
3. Use something like the provided video WITH HEADPHONES from whichever 'half' you are currently conscious of, to allow the other 'half' to become 'sympathetic' of your conscious self.
4. Rhythm entrainment will take effect just like the video provided between the two sections.
5. Continue this therapy until the two sections remain rhythm entrained naturally.

I was stopped by a game warden in South Louisiana recently with two ice chests of keys. I was leaving a bayou well known for its fishing.
The game warden asked me, 'Do you have a license for those keys?'
'Naw, ma fren, I ain't got none of dem, no. Dese here are my pet keys.'
'Pet keys?'
'Ya. Avery night I take dese here keys down to de bayou and let dem swim 'round for a while. Den I whistle and dey jump rat back inta dis here ice chest and I take dem home.'
'That's a bunch of hooey. Keys can't do that.'
The Cajun looked at the game warden for a moment and then said, 'It's de truth ma' fren. I'll show you. It really works.'
'Okay, I've GOT to see this.'I poured the keys into the bayou and stood and waited.
After several minutes, the game warden turned to me and said, 'Well?'
'Well, what?'
'When are you going to call them back?'
'Call who back?'
'The keys.'
'What keys?'

From the context of the conscious mind:
If I'm angry with you, the personality of defense or predatory aggression now has me in its grip. It's dominant from a neurological perspective. It's suppressing all other personalities. So now when you talk to me, any word that you say that I could interpret as irritating is going to be much more obvious, and anything that you say that would be peacemaking, I would regard cynically. And I would be looking in my interactions with you for pathways to victory. And it wouldn't be all that I would see that, but also, if you asked me to justify my actions while we were arguing, even if I became cruel, that drive that is a personality would have all those arguments at hand too. So it's a full fledge personality, also has it's own emotional systems because if i'm gripped by rage, I could easily be happy to see you suffer. But if i'm gripped by compassion, seeing you suffer is going to put me in pain.

<jurov> mircea_popescu , is there any place for mpex chinese/pakistani users to inquiry about the outage?
<mircea_popescu> jurov here basically.
<jurov> one dude came and seemd completely out of his mind
<mircea_popescu> have him join the chan it can be explained to him.
<deadweasel> which one?
<deadweasel> Rick___?
<jurov> yes. he's gone now.
<mircea_popescu> awww that poor dude was sending me crazed messages too.
. fishfish|AFK has quit (Quit: Zzzzz..zzzzz)
<mircea_popescu> but to sum up the situation, cause i imagine many people are curious :
<mircea_popescu> mpex consists of a trade server and webservers which the users talk to.
<mircea_popescu> if you look at it practically these webservers are practically proxies.
<mircea_popescu> there is five of them sharing two gigabit uplinks through a balancer.
<mircea_popescu> the first time mpex was ddosed in january the attack took out the actual datacenter top level router.
<mircea_popescu> there were two more layers of routing to get to the router that handled the webservers.
<mircea_popescu> now, the reason admittedly was that the thing was a little old and kidna loaded. but still.
<mircea_popescu> so at that time i split the tubes up north/east, and started a bunch of proxies
. detro (~detro@165.212.186.27) has joined .bitcoin-assets
<mircea_popescu> jurov was hosting one, for instance.
<mircea_popescu> since the attack started yesterday a total of 100+ of these were taken offline.
<mircea_popescu> granted, it's not easy to blow up a small shared setup like that.
<mircea_popescu> but somebody did have the determination to spend a day and a half looking for them, setting up the ddosing for them individually bla bla.
<mircea_popescu> the thing with that system is that it works by division. if there's 100 of them there jurov can stay online.
<mircea_popescu> if there's 9 left the remainder ddos is available to hit him
<mircea_popescu> i could allow anyone to start a proxy right now, the trade server is fine, etc. the problem is
<mircea_popescu> you'd be nuked in half an hour or something, and it's just hassle.
<imsaguy> mmm, shake n bake

<mircea_popescu> imsaguy the alternative is handle mpex trades by email.
<Diablo-D3> email, the original next generation mail queue
<mircea_popescu> yep.
<imsaguy> how about mpex trades via telnet?

<mircea_popescu> to what ip ?

<mircea_popescu> people can just paste a pastebin link or w/e
<Diablo-D3> oh em gee
<imsaguy> derp
<mircea_popescu> lol
<imsaguy> and then the bot filters anything not formed as url
<imsaguy> thats the first line
<mircea_popescu> imsaguy wanna code an irc proxy for me ?
<imsaguy> second line is it only parses text
<Diablo-D3> mircea_popescu: dude, just use perl
<mircea_popescu> all you have to do is take urls from people and feed them into server as pgp strings
<imsaguy> no, just fork gribble
<mircea_popescu> so fork gribble, i dun care.
<imsaguy> the code for reading pastebin to gpg

Yes, but…blockspace are *paid for* by real work, watts, tech, time, skill and innovation.
The fee you charge for that block space labor you provided to the network is 3.125 BTC.
You earn the right to *announce the coins into existence* then everyone on the network checks to make sure you did the work.
Layer 0 is the difficulty adjustment bidding system that auctions off these 3.125 BTC in exchange for the blockspace you produced. The bid amount changes in the form of difficulty adjustment. The BTC aren't created into existence, but rather thawed from the timechain. They were already there locked up in the future. You can see them.

I'm not defending them, but I've never seen AI get a quote right. I mostly use them to avoid ads, or avoid getting blocked over TOR when looking something up.

I think it clearly distinguishes the difference between that which is a proxy to riches, and the riches themselves.
