Talking about the “nervous system” in isolation from the rest of the body and its environment is like trying to figure out what is the automobile about by looking at its motor running on a stand. You need to look at where the “rubber hits the road” to really understand what’s going on.

Only “bodies can do things” not the isolated nervous systems. Of course, brains have a #function within the body, the same way that individual bodies (with their respective brains) have a function within a social organization.

The nervous “(sub)system” has no need to be in direct contact with the environment, but it also can’t function or even survive (is not viable) without the support of all the other body parts, some of which are and must be in direct contact with the #environment.

According to #HH_Pattee, The whole purpose of the nervous system and cognition is the survival of the body:

“The major function of the brain is actually not to sit around and discuss things like we are doing now, but it is to make decisions - it has to decide whether to fight or run or eat …”

Thinking about the nervous “system” in isolation is typical for #Cybernetics thinking which separates the #control (management) system from the #controlled system (the plant) and does not recognize the fact that they depend on each other and should be thought of as one system.

People are “social animals” and the emergent capability and knowledge of an #organization as a system of people are quite different from the collection of all the individual learning capabilities and knowledge of the individuals it is composed of, so it is, therefore, appropriate to treat the organization as another dynamical #learning system.

Update on the photo storage from a wine fridge. 68 degrees Farenheit or less and between 30-40%. Lower temperature is best for color photos. Forgot that photos should be kept in the dark. So much for that big glass door. Time to make it opaque! Having troubles finding a good #DIY on converting the #winefridge into a #temperature and #humidity #controlled #storage unit for #photos. We are also in touch with someone from Toronto Metropolitan University to help guide us. #notphp

I think Maturana may have “jumped the gun” here by succumbing to the cybernetic #control vs. #controlled type of thinking and using a gun (a mere passive #product or #structure) as a metaphor for an active, living #system.

In my mind, the notion of external control so pervasive in #cybernetics does not fit well with the notions of #autopoiesis and #constructivism.

Unlike a (living) system, the gun has no other #choice but to react to the trigger, except, as Maturana notes, in case of malfunction (which is not equivalent to choice).

In a #replicated, #controlled #experiment on wild-caught #Culex spp. #mosquitoes, Thormeyer and Tseng (2023) found no effect of #microplastics at either high doses of at field-relevant doses.

Quote: “Overall, our results showed that doses of 200 or 20,000 #particles per ml of 4.8–5.8 μm polystyrene beads had no effect on the #body #size, #development, or #growth #rate of Cx #pipiens or Cx #tarsalis.”

I've asked this question on #message #boards and #social #media over the years;

#State #Controlled #Music:

If your #Government only allowed music from one #Solo #Artist and one #Group, who do you think they would be?

Ashby’s principle of requisite #variety states, in fact, that the variety of the #controlling system must be large at least as the variety of the #controlled system .

As an external #observer can never have the full picture of the internal variety of states the controlled system can find itself in, it is obvious that, for control to be #effective, the controller must be an integral part of the same self-organized (controlled) #system.

Swole Matty is a robot being controlled it seems...

David Vincent #Spills_the_Beans.. Again! Opps.. :)

We joined Mastodon in Nov 1, 2021. Basically after 12 years as a Top Influencer on #LinkedIn we realized we were being #censored behind the scenes:( ugh!

We also discovered huge corporate click Farms and Fake Posting Groups (farms) on that platform from “paid CORPORATE spammers” DIRECTLY suppressing our Posts?? (AKA the TRUTH) after being a loyal member for 12 years. 30,000 connection 50m REACH Globally and a lot of hard work and 1000’s of hours GONE!??

Why? #CENTRALIZED. Do not make the same mistake folks.

BTW Microsoft is not interested in the TRUTH.
Why? bc the TRUTH #incriminates them..

HELLO??

When we got here (Mastodon); you could literally hear the crickets. Just #Cat pics and #LGBT Community.

After 13,000 TRUTH postings we saw a HUGE influx (via in-house tracking) of new members coming into Mastodon and hitting our account. Basically posting the TRUTH for 12 years. Therefore we already had all the Valuable Content needed from LinkedIn in chronological order SAVED;) So all content already a/b tested:) for CTR (high click through Rates;).

Since we pioneered Blockchain (2010) we knew that the future was #DE_CENTRALIZATION and eventually would need to leave LinkedIn -- but waiting for the right time.

Again.. .after 13,000K postings we soon saw a huge influx a traffic stampeding to Mastodon from our efforts.

The 70,000 rushed over not bc of Mastodon and an Elephant?? -- but because of our SEO efforts.

Let us explain. See below.

* Have you heard of #NO_FOLLOW / #DO_FOLLOW LINKS which is an SEO term.

* LinkedIn, Twitter, Facebook (Big Tech) are all CENTRALIZED NETWORKS.

* When you drop a link on their platforms they are assigned a NO FOLLOW HTML Tag (by default) so that spiders (search engine bots) will NOT INDEX (NO FOLLOW) that link OR copy it into their database.

* BACK LINKING which in SEO term (aka link juice). Without high PA/DA BACK LINKS (= trust authority) you do not exist online. Which is the GOAL OF A CENTRALIZED PLATFORM..

(aka created addictions)

* We discovered after setting up our own instance and after posing 13k postings on Davidv.tv that all of our links were #DO_FOLLOW;):)

* SO what does that mean? It means that we now have 1000's of backlinks pointing to our domains not a dead-end #NO_FOLLOW that GREEDY centralized systems want you to have for NO TRAFFIC to your sites..

* WHY because they are 100% #Anti_Competitive.

Get off of a Centralized system asap and enjoy massive traffic volume that has been indexed with all the major search engines ..

..DRIVING TRAFFIC TO YOUR DOMAIN not a Centralized BIG TECH domain; making them money HAND OVER FIST??

ANYTHING wrong with YOU making all the money hand over fist?? NOT FORM WERE IM STANDING ..chuckles

Again you can thank us for this #VALUABLE INFORMATION Later ( btw valuable information is NOT FREE)

..All we ask though is that you check us out at launch?

You will not be disappointed.

Mastodon gained 70,000 users after Musk’s Twitter takeover.

The platform is home to a devoted base of left-leaning communities – AND NO ONE BILLIONAIRE CAN CONGROL IT!!;)

Since Elon Musk completed his purchase of Twitter last week, some of the social media app’s users have been looking for a new home – only to find there aren’t many great options. Twitter’s co-founder Jack Dorsey is beta testing a new app called Bluesky, but there’s no launch date yet.

However, tech-savvy users are rallying around Mastodon, a six-year-old social media platform popular among a devoted base of left-leaning niche communities.

Mastodon, named after the extinct tusked animal, is #decentralized, which means it can’t be #controlled by a #single_corporation or #space_billionaire. That’s clearly appealing to the flood of users who have signed up since Musk’s Twitter takeover, with more than 70,000 users joining Mastodon on the day after his announcement alone.
