the concepts page so far has been writing down the "stuff we all already know" but in doing so we're revealing what that is, and what fundamental things we maybe don't agree on. I'm intentionally going slow / only adding one at a time because I want as many voices to contribute!

I really do think the MAIN bottleneck right now is coordination/creating a shared language. There are a lot of people that have testable theories, some that I think are already breakthroughs, but everyone's using their own homegrown language, so it's not clear they're talking about same things

if you're comfortable with github you can see the discussion on the first PR we merged here, as we were debating the purpose of this document / what we're driving towards

you guys might be interested in the communal "glossary" we just start building last week, starting from the ground up, kind of towards laying down the axioms cc @daytura.bsky.social

yeah this is solvable if you take reflexivity as a fundamental part of your axioms, not something you try to eliminate. From michael smith's "subjective science" (morphenius.substack.com/p/subjective...)

screenshot to get around word text limit (also - if there's a beta testing thing for Semble or a discord or w/e I'd love to test it out! I've been getting all my ORI people to write on github to get used to the workflow of micropublishing & reviewing each other)

wait is there a workflow for cross posting from twitter -> bluesky or vice versa?? does anyone have a doc / tutorial for this, I want to try it

best attempt I've had so far to think through this is in: defenderofthebasic.substack.com/p/the-human-...

yeah there's predicting, and then being in the right place at the right time to profit from that, and then there's actively shaping / shifting the tide towards more favorable conditions to you/your desired future

no i haven't been actively monitoring him! What's the highlight(s) ?

6/ Goodreads is another inspiration for how “micro-knowledge” can aggregate into meaningful impact. As @aj-boston.bsky.social writes, why *don’t* we have something like Science Goodreads yet? bsky.app/profile/rone...

we are discussing a strange phenomenon where if you google "Memory Holes are signs of Epistemically Hostile Enviroments" this substack essay does NOT appear (which is kind of poetic, the concept of a memory hole is being memory holed!)
