"I don't know who discovered water but it wasn't a fish!"

"To pick out the Carrier of the Noise, yo have to know what the carrier is."

und ich möchte sagen: das ist nicht genug!

1. Der Sender darf nicht durch atmosphärische Störungen (Gewitter?) zerstört werden (also den Normalo)
2. Selbst wenn die Nachricht mutig abgeschickt wird:
3. Sie muß verstehbar werden dekodierbar, und Alan erzählte in einem anderen Film dazu: "Wir haben den Code vorne auf die Bänder mit aufgespielt, das konnte auf jedem Kreuzer, die hatten ja alle verschiedene Systeme, wieder gelesen werden." Das ist es doch schon, aber er denkt nur an die Blöde maschine, nicht an mich.
4. Das schreit doch nach: Ein Glossar im Hirn, Text oder eben in emacs (Interview with an Emacs Enthusiast [Colorized] https://youtu.be/urcL86UpqZc )

Cites another giant: Richard P. Gabriel: "Worse ist Better"
?: Der Wiki.en artikel ist Unsinn(?), verdreht alles:
"…that there is a point where less functionality ("worse")
is a preferable option ("better") in terms of practicality and usability.
Software that is limited, but simple to use, may be more appealing
to the user and market than the reverse…." original meaning (IMHO):
"they implement the wrong thing, and the users suffers from that, this is efficient"!

"So the problem with these ideas is:
every one of these has a bunch of ontological commitments,
that require the programmer to make.
And I want to make sure that in fact,
we don't think that we have to make these ontological commitments.
We have to be able to use these ideas without committing to them
so that we can use another idea in the same piece of machinery that we're building,
whatever it is. So I want to start with good ideas. Here's a good idea, OK?: a building-plan of a Frog!"

"ontological commitments": relate that to Alan Kay:

You become what the medium is, what the material is, in order to use it as a tool.
cause we become it, we don't know that we are it"
Alan Kay 1985

I am always fascinated by himself: Knuth on Literate Programming: https://youtu.be/Mr3WTR0a5SM (5 Min)

We have to enable ourselves to stack foreign Glossarys ("Worlds"),
if we concentrate on requirements of the brain/llms to optimize for,
not the complete description of the complex world:
Imagine a Document, carrying its Semantic in itself,
you import that to our own to get warnings about differences,
and errors on incompatiblities.

Another hint on the Future: 16.03.2019 (https://youtu.be/yVw42wWZWrg 45 Min) Alan Kay is the President of Viewpoints Research Institute. And he expresses my intent and understanding of all of this 100 Percent.
