darobin / boltzmann-replicator
Created June 20, 2014 19:44
Boltzmann Replicators
- explain Boltzmann Brains and the typical Boltzmann universe
- we don't need to care about what the Boltzmann universe from which ours sprouted is made
from, an ur-chaotic primordial bit soup would likely do the trick.
Explain how the ur-chaos is as close as it gets to a definition of nothing.
- at some point a replicator must show up, and once it does you no longer have a Boltzmann
universe
Yet if every possible structural arrangement eventually takes place, it isn't just

My LT
WEB ANTS:
- Those of you who remember programming in Logo, that language with the little turtle, might be
happy to know that it is still alive and well, perhaps in a surprising location.
- What you see behind me is NetLogo, a modern version of Logo that is used for research into
multi-agent simulations.
- I'm here to talk about ants.
- If you were tasked with emulating how an ant colony forages for food, you might get scared.
Millions of individuals, exploring the world, it's all very complex.

DOM test quick overview
NEEDS WORK:
- /dom/nodes/MutationObserver-attributes.html
- most implementations don't mutate when the string doesn't change. What's wanted here?
- implementations don't properly default attribute: true. Imp bug IMHO.
- /dom/traversal/NodeIterator.html
- spec is unclear (not sure what happens to function that's given for a NodeFilter)
- tests take the Gecko-friendly interpretation, other implementations not
- /dom/nodes/Node-isEqualNode.xhtml
- suspicious test, cross-origin issue
- /dom/nodes/MutationObserver-childList.html
