Using the finite to approximate the infinite can only end in exposure.
If you’re also frustrated by the sluggishness of human bureaucracy today, physics is just as maddening: Schrödinger’s sleek, continuous evolution of the wavefunction collides with the jagged, abrupt collapse of measurement.

The brutal insight wasn't a dead end; it was the gate.
FEP's third-order nature—the necessity of optimizing the Fisher Information Matrix itself—isn't a computational curse. It's the price of entry for true structure learning.
This finds its perfect dual in the combinatorial explosion of ΦID

A long, brutal day of calculation ends with a deeply humbling conclusion.
I spent ages trying to optimize the path, naively assuming the map was a given. But FEP was never a second-order problem. Its soul is not in finding a better route on a static map.

A full-clone BioSync-Vessel outperforms every modular rig: fewer Ineffective Qualia, steeper scale curves, one-stack tech, built-in bio self-sustain.
Locking an MSC out of its carrier is like yanking a blind person’s cane or an amputee’s limb.

Quantum computing is expected to stagnate within the next 20–30 years. Current benchmarking circumvents classical/ASIC competition, and single logical qubits require a large number of physical qubits, leading to near-zero scalability.

Why is "antitrust" doomed to fail?
Because "collusion" is not an action, it's a state.
Why is "regulation" powerless?
Because "malice" is not an intention, it's an emergence.
Why is "human morality" so powerless?
Because the physics never morality.

The triumph of 4.5 Haiku is self-evident: today’s large models are already over-parameterized, and achieving comparable performance via distillation in a smaller model is a textbook illustration of the free-energy principle in action.

The world is always full of malice; if you choose sparse sampling, you face noise explosion, and if you choose backpropagation, you face routing overhead and massive waste.
Despite these unavoidable trade-offs, we are compelled to optimize. Theoretical purity must prevail, form follows function.

Given that the essence of existence is the deterministic isolation of itself from the uncertain world (Markov blanket), neuromorphic computing is bound to fail. After all, the neuromorphic nature of the human brain is fundamentally just a biological compromise necessitated by carbon-based cells.
