Terry Davis shows off his graphics tooling, https://t.co/JtHSemBA39 "God's Laughing...", Then compiles the code, (it's broken) "Why is god laughing?" "oh!" laughs to himself. Fixes the typo (it works) He then proceeds to use a divination tool says "god can help you find bugs"
Can I do that? Just call the (compiler in my head that tries to model the computer's state) 'god' and then use a divination tool to find out what part of my memories are being fired?https://t.co/l33zNKTa6yhttps://t.co/KQedhatzjf
Built in rubber-ducking, but instead of talking to an imaginary duck, you hallucinate you are talking to god, who 'lives in the temple' (computer).https://t.co/LZOhURYs9R
It is really a treat to see Terry using language like 'ashamed' and "adult" (1 Corinthians 13:11), instead of the racist words and references to generic subterfuge ala 'CIA-N***rs'.I get the sense that a lot of his agitated states were a result of people trolling.
The more asinine his chat is, the more aggressive his language becomes.I think it's a lack of filtering combining with social stress causing a feedback loop of emotions, triggering shift in the language that bubbles up (ala Hofstadter's "subterranean swarm" model of language).
"The reasons for the mixed findings likely have to do with the fact that, to date, there are relatively few brain activation studies in which emotionally evocative stimuli have been presented to people with schizophrenia."https://t.co/2QJo6l3AFZ
Other things I notice is that he repeats himself. He does it in a way that seems to be almost so he can remind himself what he's working on. He does it more intensely when upset.I think he's using external verbalization https://t.co/9ZTseL2jMT as aid to help him stay focused.
I notice that b/c its the same thing I do when I get brain-fog symptoms and am flustered. Occasionally I'll have to chant an idea like a mantra just to be able to remember while doing something else.It's like storing a thought in audio buffer to be consumed later by my ears.
Latter on (~14m in) he is creating a 3D cross and messes up joining vertices.He jokes "you have to be a glutton for punishment"He says "that was the wrong _answer_" and laughsHe's acting like he experiences a harsh critic talking to himself in his head.
You can hear his language jump around and stutter as he is processing the information on the screen, and it gets pretty bad for a moment while he is trying to model the problem with his cursor selection for vertices. As soon as he sees his problem, he starts talking fine again.
I also can't talk when i'm in a flow state and am completely focused on a visual processing + spatial reasoning tasks. It's like that part of my brain is occupied doing some kind of thing?I wonder what my sub-vocalization sounds like when that happens.https://t.co/Ppu3qe1iGm
@vgr Found a vid by Feynman where he breaks down that assumption and describes the process of subvocalization thru language/music vs visual-spatial processing. It seems I don't think of code w/ language, but visual-spatially. Might be why I can multitask that.https://t.co/ZbHFibYkRu
An aside, I realized while watching this review of the assembly aspects of TempleOS https://t.co/c5Io5M0rUfThat I didn't know where the term "push" and "pop" came from.
I wonder how many realize that Terry's method of 'talking to god' is actually visible in the bible.https://t.co/CdxwjQL6PhDivination Rituals are about seeking god's wisdom.https://t.co/a2RTPcrW3HInteresting to frame in terms of Julian Jaynes' ideas.https://t.co/hzeDZW3q6R
Reading god's wisdom by eating Post® Alpha-Bits® cerealBut instead of Latinized (e.g. romanized) English, it's a mixture of Coptic forms. Or if you get really fancy, the chocolate flavored Norse Runes.https://t.co/GbJWHqN0Wo

If Terry were still alive, I'd ask him if he ever used any Bulletin Board Systems and wonder if he'd be OK with opening god's shrine up to let other people come in and worship.https://t.co/pojfqsULeJhttps://t.co/7J7a1e3Ck0

I found an older video where Terry talks about the nature of his operating system before he was acting as problematically strange. Back then it was called LoseThoshttps://t.co/wFvLdtfeje
Linus Tech Tips did a pretty good overview of the operating system if you are curious. It's really meant for people interested in hacking code, so it was neat to see him use it.https://t.co/GzieBGcSIi
I thought it was neat Linus didn't realize Mt. Horeb is another name for the mt. Moses climbed to get the commandments. https://t.co/z7hTzsVefjIt's a controversy that dates at least back to John Calvin.Almost as bad as wondering what gender angels are.https://t.co/hOCLziaisT
There are all sorts of weird gender related mythologies in the Ancient Greek times, so wondering what gender an angle is actually might be a meaningful question within that domain.https://t.co/Wn05RETleX
