I have made a map, of sorts.

Let's say you're given a reasoning problem.

What aspect of that problem exactly decides if you think too much? Not enough? Just right?

What aspect of the problem decides if you will succeed at this task?

Are these the same? (spoiler: no, these are orthogonal)

This work sits at the intersection of cognition, AI and information theory.

The compute scale is fun: I ran 500 trillion maths per second for two weeks to produce this data. I haven't even looked up the word for a number that big.

it's so smol!!

Gear and chain should be able to survive the sand as long as you can keep the motor coupling sealed away from the grit..

It would also look dope AF

Reverse-waterfall dehumidifier is a solid idea imo, with the specific heat of hand so low I wouldn't worry about what little heat you'd waste on the sand. the tough part is the arbasive aspect, how to move the sand back to the top without slow killing any mechanical parts involved

Air conveyor?

Neat idea. Practical trouble would be reliability, sand is abrasive as hell as far as fluids go, and the fact that specific heat of sand actually sucks it only holds like 1/4th the heat that water does so you'd need so much more of it

I'm gonna cross the border into Michigan this year when I'm up at the Soo, need to call around see if I can get someone to sell me a case.

We never check bags, it's too much trouble 😞

I had similar reservations but they burn perfect. I might rip the last one apart to confirm the trick, I'd bet the middle is hollow
