Very cool one tonight. This simulation is a toric-code lattice wrapped onto a torus, so the geometry is not aesthetic decoration, it is the topology of the quantum memory itself. The torus gives the code two independent non-contractible cycles, the long way around the body and the short way around the hole. The cyan, green, and yellow voxel field is the discrete stabilizer/qubit lattice. The purple glitching cubes are the important part: they are anyonic syndrome defects, meaning local parity-check failures where the code detects an error excitation. If those purple defects appear in small contractible clusters, the code can absorb and correct them. If their path winds around one of the torus cycles, they become a logical operator and can flip the encoded state. So the purple cubes are the simulated fault layer: they show where the toric code is being stressed, where the topological protection survives, and where the torus stops being just geometry and becomes memory.

~ memory is a flock of birds ~
i built a hopfield network and taught it the alphabet - then watched it remember in real time by adjusting the temperature.
no neuron has the whole picture. the memory is distributed across every neuron’s connections.

3D magnetic knot is a particle that can memorise, transmit geometric shape and do neuronlike computing. It has enormous potential. imagine a magnetic particle is doing the job, the days of electrical resistance will be over

The origin of life cannot be explained by materialist philosophy:
Michael Polanyi, chemist and philosophy, argued that "we need at least two levels of explanation to account for living structures—a physical and an organizational explanation.
This is best illustrated in the DNA molecule. The bases, sugars, and phosphates that comprise the nucleotides in DNA are ordinary chemicals and react according to ordinary chemical laws. Yet those same laws cannot explain the sequence of bases that spells out the message in DNA.
In Polanyi’s words, the sequence of bases is extraneous to” or “independent of” the chemical and physical forces in the DNA molecule. That is, the sequence is not determined by inherent physical forces. It is precisely this “physical indeterminacy” that gives the DNA
molecule the flexibility to appear in a variety of sequences, like words on a page.
And if physical forces do not determine the structure of the DNA molecule, then we need to search outside physics for its organizing principle. We need a second level of explanation.
This becomes clearer if we draw an analogy to human language. The words in a book are written in ink. Yet their sequence did not arise from the chemicals in the ink, nor from any chemical interaction between the ink and the paper, nor even from the electronic impulses in the computer when it was originally keyed in. The information is completely independent of the material medium used to store and transmit it.
Exactly the same reasoning applies to the information in DNA. It is independent of the material medium—the strand of chemicals—used to store and transmit it. If we knew how to translate the message encoded in a DNA molecule, we could write it out using other material. We could write it in Magic Marker, in crayon, in finger paint. We could even write with a stick in the sand. And it would still be the same message. Changing the material medium does not change the message.
Information is independent of the material substance that stores and conveys it.
And because a message is independent of the material medium, it does not originate from the medium. The DNA message does not originate in the chemistry of a DNA molecule—any more than the text on this page arose from the paper and ink used to print it.
In reality, of course, the words on this page were constrained by the principles of the English language—rules of grammar, interpretation, and sentence construction—along with the rules of logic and reasoning.
By the same token, Polanyi argues, the information in the DNA molecule is constrained by special organic rules and principles—principles not reducible to the laws of physics and chemistry.

One curve.
Three projections.f(t) = e^{-γ(t-t₀)²} ⋅ e^{iωt}
From the Re-t plane: damped cosine.
Im-t: damped sine.
Re-Im: perfect inward spiral.Same reality, different slices.

This dude absolutely annihilates the theory of evolution in 70 seconds.
Life does not come from non life.
We did not evolve from a single cell organism.
Believing in evolution takes faaaaar more faith than believing in a creator.

Quantum physics shows that the solid world we perceive is actually made of energy lines, emptiness, and probability — not physical matter.
For centuries, we have viewed the universe as a collection of solid objects, but quantum physics is dismantling that illusion.
At the heart of every atom lies not a tiny, hard marble, but a swirling electric storm of probability and vibration. Scientists have proven that what we perceive as physical substance is actually a series of ghostlike force fields and resonant waves dancing in a vast, silent void.
This fundamental shift in understanding suggests that the material world is less like a construction site of fixed parts and more like a complex symphony of energetic happenings.
This discovery challenges our very sense of identity, suggesting that we are not solid beings inhabiting a solid world, but rather intricate patterns of energy echoing through space. If the foundation of reality is built on probability instead of substance, the boundaries between the observer and the observed begin to blur. We are part of a continuous, dynamic dance where nothing is truly static, reminding us that existence is an ongoing process of vibration rather than a collection of independent, inanimate things.

New research reveals that astrocytes—once dismissed as mere "brain glue"—are actually the supervisors. By tuning neuronal activity via calcium waves, they regulate critical states like alertness, sleep, and anxiety. This paradigm shift suggests neuron-only models are insufficient and opens a massive untapped frontier for treating psychiatric disorders. quantamagazine.org/once-thou…

we are programmable matter animated by electromagnetic spirits
which suggests electromagnetic spirits might live in other things, too
this is why devices stop working when the smoke escapes - the spirit is gone.
