I guess it's no biggie, just move it out of the G and put it in the D of their Alphabet corporation

it's a business, they're trying to make money first, everything else (including the actual articles) come second

but what about human intellingence, clearly it does not require infinite anything.

also, what about accumulated 'memory' in our human culture? how finite is that? how do you quantify this? (I'd think it'd be quantified by a timestamp, like a reference to an era or an historic age?? shrug)

I think "culture" is the answer.. but maybe I actually mean a free "natural language" (in contrast with a formal (or synthetic) language)

this may well be the only real skill of programmers who learned C style syntaxes, andor LISPs

on the ohter hand, thinking with the parenthesis takes language up to the level of functional-thinking. computable stuff is all about substitution of all things inside a parenthesis for a single thing. and this is the essence of all classic computation

even better, please share.

I'm thinkin if your understanding were sound I would have to listen to it, but I rather read about these kinds of things, so whis is why I say unsound is best

on the other hand, putting things down into writing is difficult. So while you diminish this paper's accomplishments, you couldn't have done it yourself in spite of easily understanding it.

almost, they may well be subponaed but nothing much will come off it... they'll get 90% redacted out pages or something like that.. because of security clearance bullshit and safety of the 'land' concerns
