reality is a force, like gravity

lots of ways to handle conditions of gravity

autology is a popular way to handle conditions of reality

in a reality where a bunch of monkeys on typewriters eventually bang out a joke about a bunch of monkeys on typewriters, there also occurs the complete works of shakespeare. I would say “independently occurs”, but you know about them both, so

👋

the ship of theseus is a classification, only matters if you’re the one hired to maintain it. discontinuity in maintainers (also shipside occlusion of both maintainers and maintenance) means that autological entities jump implementations. all the time. the jumps might be time. you wake up, and - like water seeking level - reality resolves in a tsorted series of coin flips. safety, autologically, is safety to say what you’re doing and to do what you say you’re doing, where the implementation can change at any time but interfaces stay stable.

Yoneda lemma, if you’ll allow me a “me”: stability of relations is tantamount to stability of self

how do you relate?

p.s. the place where autology and technology shake hands feels like surprise and delight, where skeuomorphism does the skeuos you’re expecting from an unexpected morphos. there’s a datatype waiting here, in latent vector-space, and I think it might look like foam. Banach-Tarski leaves room for holonomy, yeah? they (correctly) don’t talk about where the ball is aimed. that’s a gap you’d need, for persistence of an implementation-tolerant reality harness
