Micro black hole

Data

<Ciro Santilli> has felt that perhaps what is missing in 2020's <AGI> research is:
* the interface between:
  * the continuous/noisy level (now well developed under <artificial neural network> techniques of the 2010's)
  * and <symbolic AI> level AI
  The key question is somewhat how to extract symbols out of the space-time continuous experiences.
* more specialized accelerators that somehow interface with more generic <artificial neural networks>. Notably some kind of speialized processing of spacial elements is obviously hardcoded into the brain, see e.g. <grid cell>{full}

Forcing these boundaries to be tested was one of the main design goals of <Ciro's 2D reinforcement learning games>.

In those games, for example:
* when you press a button here, a door opens somewhere far away
* when you touch certain types of objects, a chemical reaction may happen, but not other types of objects
Therefore, those continuous objects would also have "magic" effects that could not be explained by "simple" "what is touching what" ideas.

* He doesn't actually write that much, but when he does he focuses on higher impact stuff, see remarks about "He doesn't like to refresh the homepage looking for easy reputation" on <Ciro Santilli's Stack Overflow contributions>{full}
* Contribute in a place where it is super easy for people to give you upvotes if they like your stuff. This way, you will see the uploads, and that will motivate you to re-read your content and make it more perfect with additions and corrections.


How Ciro Santilli manages to write so much

{c}

If <Ciro Santilli> weren't a <Ciro Santilli's campaign for freedom of speech in China>[natural born activist], he chould have made an excellent <intelligence analyst>! See also: <Being naughty and creative are correlated>{full}.
* <Stack Overflow Vote Fraud Script>
* <GitHub> makes Ciro feel especially naughty:
  * <All GitHub Commit Emails>: he extracted (almost) all Git commit emails from <GitHub> with <Google BigQuery>
  * https://github.com/cirosantilli/test-many-commits-1m/[A repository with 1 million commits]: likely the https://www.quora.com/Which-GitHub-repo-has-the-most-commits/answer/Ciro-SantilliI[live repo with the most commits as of 2017]
  * https://stackoverflow.com/questions/20099235/who-is-the-user-with-the-longest-streak-on-github/27742165\#27742165[An 100 year GitHub streak], likely longest ever when that existed. It was consuming too much <server> resources however, which led to GitHub admins manually https://web.archive.org/web/20151021135921/https://github.com/cirosantilli/[turning off his contribution history].
  * https://github.com/cirosantilli/test-octopus-100k[A repository with a 100k commit Git octopus merge]. Now that is a true https://softwareengineering.stackexchange.com/questions/314215/can-a-git-commit-have-more-than-2-parents/377903\#377903[Cthulhu merge].

* you don't get any/sufficient recognition for your contributions. The closest they have to upvotes and reputation is the incredibly obscure "thank" feature which is only visible to the receiver itself: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Help:Notifications/Thanks
* <deletionism> is a tremendous problem on Wikipedia, for two main causes:
  * tutorial-like subjectivity
  * notability
  The stuff you wrote can be deleted anytime by some random admin/opposing editor, examples at: <deletionism on Wikipedia>{full}.

  This also possibly leads to <Edit wars> in the case of sub-page content (full page deletion is more clearly arbitrated).
* Scope too limited, and politics defined. Everything has to sound encyclopedic and be notable enough. This basically excludes completely good tutorials.
* Insane impossible to use <markup language>-base talk pages instead of issue trackers?! Ridiculous!!! That change alone could make Wikipedia so much more amazing. Wikipedia could become a Stack Exchange killer by doing that alone + some basic reputation system. Some work on that is being done at: https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:DiscussionTools[], already in Beta as of 2022.

Wikipedia

Why Wikipedia sucks: <ourbigbook com/Wikipedia>{full}.

Best languages:
* https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Latin_Wikipedia[latin]
* https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Esperanto_Wikipedia[esperanto]. Other constructed languages: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:List_of_constructed_languages_with_Wikipedias

The most important page of Wikipedia is undoubtedly: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Reliable_sources/Perennial_sources which lists the accepted and non accepted sources. Basically, the decision of what is true in this world.

Wikipedia is incredibly picky about copyright. E.g.: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Deletion_of_all_fair_use_images_of_living_people because "such portrait could be created". Yes, with a time machine, no problem! This does more harm than good... excessive!

Citing in Wikipedia is painful. Partly because of they have a billion different templates that you have to navigate. They should really have a system where you can easily reuse existing sources across articles! <How to use a single source multiple times in a Wikipedia article?>{full}

We intersect <2013 DNS Census virtual host cleanup> with <2013 DNS census MX records> and that leaves 460k hits. We did lose a third on the the MX records as of 260 hits since secureserver.net is only used in 1/3 of sites, but we also concentrate 9x, so it may be worth it.

Then we <Wayback Machine CDX scanning>. it takes about 5 days, but it is manageale.

We did a full <Wayback Machine CDX scanning> for JAR, SWF and cgi-bin in those, but only found a single new hit:
* 63.130.160.50 theglobalheadlines.com. Just barely missed with our <2013 DNS Census virtual host cleanup heuristic keyword searches> as we did think of both "global" and "headlines" in the "news" themes!
