Stormlight Archive also has a magic similar to this (Lashings)

That's how you end up with a 200lb missile smashing your guts out

Do it

I have the FP6, it's amazing

I'm not aware of any class of problem that humans can solve that we don't think are solvable by sufficiently large computers.

That is a really good point...hrmmm

My conjecture is that some "super Turing" calculation is required for consciousness to arise. But that super Turing calculation might not be necessary for anything else like logic, balance, visual processing, etc

However, if the brain is capable of something super Turing, I also don't see why that property wouldn't translate to super Turing "higher order" brain functions like logic...

It's likely the same as English spelling. Just years and years of repeated exposure, and you eventually pick up most of it through osmosis

I don't think the distinction between "arbitrarily large" memory and "infinitely large" memory here matters

Also, Turing Completeness is measuring the "class" of problems a computer can solve (eg, the Halting Problem)

I conjecture that whatever the brain is doing to achieve consciousness is a fundamentally different operation, one that a Turing Complete machine cannot perform, mathematically

Also also, quantum computers (at least as i understand them, which is, not very well) are still Turing Complete. They just use analog properties of quantum wave functions as computational components

I 5000% believed it, before seeing the sub name

SSRIs (depression and anxiety meds) can cause decreased libido as a side effect

Edit: I'm dumb and tired, and wrote this before reading the second sentences of your comment

But... But programming is fun...

I suspect Turing Complete machines (all computers) are not capable of producing consciousness

If that were the case, then theoretically a game of Magic the Gathering could experience consciousness (or similar physical systems that can emulate a Turing Machine)

Why not fully silicone straws?
