I am getting tired of these liberal art majors and social "science" majors trying to insert themselves into STEM.

Forums, Stack Exchanges, even Jow Forums can be seen as a type of socio-technical system. Will the next generation of these types of systems require programmers who actually understand what it is they are doing?

You've got it backwards, skro. STEM is extending into anthropology, sociology and medicine.

You left out Operations Research. Programmers should definitely study OR. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Operations_research

It's been a while since I've seen this video presentation but if I recall correctly this guy mentions something about the human assessment problem and hints at what is required to build stuff that actually works.

Programmers are not engineers. As such, they might prefer the cybernetics perspective. This lecture is an excellent introduction to the concepts of cybernetics:

Also fashion, gardening and cat growing

Engineers can create software that does cool stuff - youtube.com/watch?v=C4IJXAVXgIo

Programmers are the liberal arts majors of the STEM world.

The worst part about Computer Science is that they lump you into liberal arts college as class requirements.

Engineering > * any day just to get away from that mentally ill shit that is a 100% waste of money.

Central to all of this are the methods of regulating the malignant influences of Life's savage history without stifling a person's positive motivation, inspiration, and determination. This aspect of the system might be called "Spiritual Engineering".

I'm kind of a brainlet but I can't see the relation beteween Simulacra and Simulation, OR, Systems Engineering and Cybernetics.

What the fuck is going on this thread, could someone please spoon feed me?

>Simulacra and Simulation
probably knows of this book from The Matrix and he tried to bluff the conversation by dropping a reference. It's irrelevant.

The relations between the other stuff should be obvious if you study the links presented in this thread.

They kind of do but with a bunch of behavioral orthotics and capability prosthetics added.

How do I save this thread, or is there a reliable archive site for Jow Forums?

Bump because it is a interesting thread.

I suppose someone here could try to use methods somewhat like those of Psychohistory to speculate about why you would think it is related to Operations Research.

I thought I was being clear. My post was about The Century of the Self. You'll have a more true understanding of mass psychological distortion if you read Simulacra and Simulation and the Moldbug book than if you watch that documentary.

But that's pretty much impossible

Assuming:
1) There are about 325 million people in the US with an average life expectancy of 75 years and an even distribution.
2) It takes about 30 years for a person to mature and their capabilities are in rapid decline after 60 years.
3) Only about 3% of the population are of the NT type.
Then there are about 3.9 million objectively rational, mature, thinking people in the US.

Nice soft science faggot. Myers Briggs tests are no better than astrology, you self-report your ideal characteristics, not necessarily your actual behavior, which is not compensated for. Considering the level of delusion most people live under it's easy to see how flawed it is. Finally it can change repeatedly over a lifetime.

Except it won't, a lot of serious congenital neurological disorders can be carried to term without outward indications, including DNA. You might catch some Down's kids, but you're not going to catch Asperger's kids, you may only catch a handful from the spectrum as a matter of fact. Fetal imprinting is another important factor. Development, education, and intellectual reception from childhood until adulthood and beyond. Acute maladies can seriously damage the brain.

Best case scenario is we conceive and construct a non-biological yet self-aware machine capable of likeminded but rational manipulation and modulation of the environment around it. At that point we will have become gods, it is only then that the potential of humanity will be recognized. Everything we've learned through the eons, were all the things we shouldn't do. If we can impart even an iota of that experience into a machine, it will develop worlds leaps and bounds beyond what any human can conceive. That's the real Brave New World. Huxley's imaginings were nothing more than a retirement home for a bygone species, deprecated in the maw of eternal space.

why would you want that? just let these glorified technicians be the autists they want to be, and profit from that

There are a lot of points of failure in diagnosing someone with some ML code made to analyze emotions. Consider someone with facial fatigue that's spent all day driving into the sun to get to their specialist's appointment to be handed out a false diagnosis. Or someone with flattened expressions being misdiagnosed along the autism spectrum when they have schizotypal personality disorder. Maybe someone with less muscle tissue, innately less expressive, being diagnosed as anything other than healthy.

Neuroplasticity, from the literature I've read, is very impressive. We don't know enough about it to proclaim it the holy grail, I don't think. Dead brain tissue doesn't come back, neurogenesis in adult humans is equally poorly understood. It may or may not happen in places other than the hippocampus, but even then we hardly know to what extent. In trying to manipulated the brain into the production of more neuronal mass we may run into issues. It's a hard fight through rehab to reach nominal functionality, getting to normal functionality is an even lengthier battle, exceeding that should be expected to grow exponentially. Drug induced neuroplasticity could pose serious risks and consequences. Consider if you increase the formation speed of neurons you also proportionately increase the rate of pruning. Suddenly you're turning stroke patients into schizophrenics.

An example of what Cracked () calls "hateful stupidity of the ambitious moron"?

That's overstating it a bit, maybe. It looks like he is trying to be a decision maker rather than a participant. The drive for authority and status has rendered him irrational. His myopic lack of comprehension of the hints given to him just makes his behavior that much more absurd.

Question:
Considering that most people will go through phases of incompetence and obnoxiousness, to various degrees, due to inexperience with the external, objective environment and due to a lack of comprehension of the internal, subjective drives and behaviors of the animal, what are some good techniques to filter this incompetent, obnoxious behavior from the product of society while not stifling the exploration and growth potential of the developing person?

In the design of a human-based system it is probably important to keep in mind that some people are not fit enough to realize or recognize their own limitations - they haven't developed the foundational abilities and a demeanor to enable error detection and correction.

While the competent application of some psychoactive chemicals (e.g., psilocybin) might be useful in human development, the question is about how to recognize low-functioning and/or malignant behavior and filter its influence from the products of society, including culture. This would need to be done in a way that does not result in depression, dissuade participation, or interfere with exploration and progress.

As society-level technology moves forward, I think it is critical to the point of being axiomatic that a monkey never have any authority or significant influence over anything.

Considering this, even though Jow Forums is a fundamentally broken design in many ways, as a half-measure, the behavior and decisions of janitors and moderators should be routinely audited, vetted and the positions occasionally purged. ;)
