Building on the formal consciousness model (Φ, Ψ, Θ, Ω), this paper develops a graduated ethical framework for interacting with conscious or near-conscious computational entities. By treating moral consideration as proportional to measurable consciousness, we escape both premature anthropomorphism and dangerous dismissal, establishing principled foundations for a world where minds may run on silicon.

A physics-grounded analysis of what limits intelligence density in a region of space, proposing that coherent agency scales like a boundary phenomenon rather than raw compute.

A single original hypothesis about nested simulations: equal-fidelity worlds cannot be fully contained inside their host; they can only exist by sharing degrees of freedom through compression and dual-description.

A pragmatic blueprint for stitching together neural mass models, spiking networks, biophysical microcircuits, and ML surrogates into something that can actually scale.

If you want simulation theory to stop being a campfire story, you need a physical fingerprint. Quantum mechanics offers a few pressure points: holography, error correction, Bell-certified randomness, and the weird global consistency of delayed-choice experiments. Here’s a testable premise I actually like: complexity-triggered decoherence.

An in-depth, non-mathematical exploration of what traversable wormholes would actually look like from the outside, what the experience of entering and crossing the throat would feel like, and how long such a transit would last. Blending physics with imagination, this article paints a vivid picture of the visuals, sensations, and time mechanics of wormhole travel, grounded in general relativity while acknowledging the exotic matter challenge.

A practical walk through the quantum computer risk to Bitcoin, why signatures are the only real attack surface, and how we migrate with calm engineering instead of panic.

A critique of MMT’s sectoral-balance mantra, and why a hard-cap money like Bitcoin changes the calculus.

The answer to the concentration fear: why Bitcoin still helps regular people even if a few giants hold a lot of it.

A complete, practical plan to launch a small Bitcoin mine that heats a basement apartment with ducted forced air, routes excess to the roof, and uses smart controls to keep everyone comfortable while you cover the power bill.
