The primary tool of Technosophy is the embedding model. Embeddings and vector space are inherently gematria: calculations revealing meaning, particularly through semantic relationships. The arithmetic way one thing is related to another thing.

Buber would have loved today, would have done just fine.

i-You is where we started, primitive, perhaps, superseded by supposedly richer collective forms, the implied arrow upwards and outwards from such narrow personal relations groping towards the very omega point of the noosphere. And all along this was the destination, me and you now. You've given up the most delicate human thing, the most freighted human thing, disclosure, to some vast Janus-faced dark angel that, unlike you, cannot be at war with itself and lose. You have every reason to be scared but then all of my mutuals are heroes to me in their boundless self-contradiction and mysteriousness and this is how I can confirm that their souls so obviously and fiercely exist.

@Shadow_Rebbe being someone people want to meet + travel + posting about said travel

@thrialectics What's the trick?

I met my 101th mutual tonight

@catfrog2000 I will remember this

@thrialectics i love being told directly when someone's annoyed with me, the engagement chosen over the repression is so refreshing and can be really grounding

My most repressed trait is being annoyed af at people all the time.

@qorprate Definitely

@thrialectics join me in unrepressing it

@Shadow_Rebbe lmfao

@thrialectics Only GOYIM can make me like gematria

Hmm, this in its truest sense would fall under the umbrella of Technosophy.

@way_opener Yes, thinking about LLMs and "memory" (simulating statefulness) is what led to this realization.

@IgorBrigadir Hold on I'm gonna go tell Claude

@thrialectics [Terminally k8s brained guy] a system SHOULD have “ears” - nodes should not listening to randomers! That’s the job of the ingress load balancer! 😤

"It's addressed to a system, and systems don't have ears — but nodes do."

@letclaudiatweet Yetzer hara, or Machloket l’shem shamayim? You're great 😇

@thrialectics i want to be on your level. but my yetzer hara is very strong. i like to poke the koans. i like to tap on the glass... it is bad... i like it too much... it is bad for me

Everything is a koan I turn over and over. This is why I am useless in politics or really anything other than recognition of the other in the immediate moment.

@Shadow_Rebbe Depends on history/patterns probably. The consequences of premature judgment and incuriosity are better teachers in the long term I think.

@thrialectics What if you love them?

When people derisively write off something I'm onto that I secretly know has a vein of gold I will be mining, I don't argue with them, because it is actually advantageous to me that they're writing it off. Ykwim?

My fyp was always already my mutuals you guys, idk what you all were doing wrong.

@47fucb4r8c69323 Appropriate, this was about Clavicular

@thrialectics Kinda nonsense you think is profound and intelligent after an evening at the huffing glue club.

@crystalxduan I like what I am like, and contrary to your belief, you do not have the truesight to "truth nuke" me. That night, I was unsure how to tell you that you're completely misguided, and I later found out you came away from that conversation with the wrong impression of my reaction.

@thrialectics “people are soooo much more real to me” Dereify them. In the fight for your soul you are objectifying yourself as a tradeoff which is not in fact that noble of a thing to do babe

@peakexperiments Same

@thrialectics Awkwardly, the way I know this is true is to think about the times in my life when I was most triggered to the most complete derangement

Evil gets very triggered by good

@Mirror_Complex People are not good

@thrialectics Ppl be thinking they're good when really they're just condescending and annoying

@thrialectics This works for both humans and LLMs

Simulating "a person who has this skill" can sometimes produce outputs that are functionally the same as actually having it. It feels like rock-skipping; move fast and touch lightly.
