It kind of exists.... as a js library - ofc.... Who would have thought.

It is called HTMX and its successor data-star.dev

It looks cool, but I will not give my voice and video to you guys, it is sad that the internet has become such a low trust environment

Absolutely true!

"No Valkey move", I like it! That should be come it's own meme!

Being free but not open source makes no sense at all. It is just our little ego that wants to "keep" what we think of as "ours" to ourselves.

Give all you have to all and progress will go so much faster. Others may learn from the implementation of Datomic and make something better. So your ego is hurt, but humanity wins!!

Give all you have, and it will never be enough! Give anyway!

Thanks for telling. It may be a bug in their system, but the way this seems to have been handled by them is really ugly

Now there are three "newish" Markdown / PWA / Note apps that I am aware of:

- Silverbullet.md (https://silverbullet.md)

- Eidos (https://eidos.space/)

- and this ofc (https://edna.arslexis.io/)

Is someone aware of more of these?

I am liking all of them and they seem to have different perspectives, goals and philosophies.

Sadly none of them have a quick capture experience on android that I am satisfied with...

You are right, what I claimed is byond the current scope of science. It is a bit like saying 'A brain can "see" an apple even when the eyes are closed" (alluding to what we call "imagination"). You _know_ it can, but science can not prove it. It is based on your very own experience

I am not aware of any proof that "Consiousness is a emerging feature of our brains complexity". For all that I know throwing around such statements of truth is mere stupidity and anti scientific

These days we have some theory about this. See Stuart Hameroff MD, a Professor of Anesthesiology and Psychology, and Director of the Center for Consciousness Studies at the University of Arizona.

To sum it up from my limited understanding: This disturbs the quantum coherance in the microtubelies in all cells (But mostly nurons) which is needed for consciousness to "limit" itself to a identity.

This is nifty! I like it a lot. Would be nice, if smaller cities are also included... I am missing "Detmold" for example

> "... but they are required to think"

Let me humbly suggest to you to not make such (Truth) statements! I dont know of any hard evidence that supports this. I know this is what most people believe, but the focus is on believe.

I feel that if one does not have the patience to wait, one may just go and selfexperiment. It is not, that Consciousness is in a lab somewhere where only some scientists have access, no it is right here! It is so much in our faces that we do not explore it ourselves, but rather wait for some "authorities" to explore that for us.

No! We can explore it by calming our mind and our senses with well established methods which are known for thousands of years (the ancient tradition of yoga for example, an do not think twisting and bending, no this goes MUCH further!!)

And then, when the senses are turned of (by practice or "outside help" e.g. think tank) and the mind is silenced, then we start to explore what lies beneath!!

They say: "When all the movements in the mind have ceased to exist, the knower dwells in his real nature" (or something along the lines, in the Yoga Sutras, roughly 1500 to 2000 years old )
