Irreni Introduction: Genesis

A Useful Fiction


Hi! Happy Hugs! Sunday!

YAII! Welcome to yet another Irreni introduction.

Well, I thought I was done with these introductions but then I thought it might be useful to write about the genesis of Irreni.



Irreni is a design with guiding principles. These are those principles. Irreni is derived from values taken from a useful fiction. Irreni represents a departure as social engineering in that it swipes left on aspiring to steer in the direction of ultimate truth and swipes right on steering in the direction of ultimate useful fiction.

This is that fiction.

Conceit

  1. In the beginning we don't know what created the universe.
  2. We do know what we can observe and that is what this useful fiction is derived from, our very best most up-to-date observations of 2018.
  3. From these observations we do know why the universe was created. It was created as an experiment to search for answers about something springing from nothing. Something did spring from nothing. And continues to do so, at random occurrences, again and again and again.
  4. Consciousness eventually occurred out of something springing from nothing. A long chain of events extending from that initial consciousness lead to this universe's creation.
  5. This consciousness is seeking answers as to how something keeps springing from nothing. Further, some consciousness is experimenting to engineer control of these events.
  6. Something springing from nothing represents a threat to consciousness, however infinitesimally small. Survival stakes are the game.

Requirements


From these observations we can derive these requirements for universe creation:

  1. The universe is an experiment seeking knowledge to find the both source of something springing from nothing and ways to control that for survival reasons.
  2. Randomness is the soil for something springing from nothing. This has many implications, not the least of which is that life needs to expand in order to expand entropy.
  3. Recording of the experiment for analysis is required. The conservation of energy/matter is better stated as the preservation of energy/matter. If something springs from nothing than because everything is preserved then everything is recorded. This record can be replayed so as to analyze something coming from nothing.
  4. When something springs from the nothing the universe will stop. The fine tuning of the universe is a trap. It is a trap for something springing from nothing.
  5. The multi-verse represents an infinite randomness and infinite traps for something springing from nothing. If something springs from nothing the universe of manifestation stops.
  6. Consciousness is being reproduced ad infinitum as a hedge against consciousness being destroyed by random something springing from nothing events.
  7. This universe experiment has a time line of twenty-six billion years.
  8. This universe experiment has a throttle in dark energy and dark matter.
  9. The experimenting consciousness has only one supernatural interactive control of this experiment to control the expansion of the universe.
  10. If consciousness reaches a certain milestone in this universe then the expansion of the universe may be turned off.
  11. It is far more likely that this universe was created by a machine replicating multiverses than directly by the consciousness itself.
  12. Any supernatural event beyond throttling universe expansion will stop the universe experiment. This feature prevents actors in one universe from jumping to another, thus implying we will have the knowledge someday to observe other universes, sharing information and knowledge.

Human Nature


What is our role in this useful fiction?

  1. Useful fiction is a program to amplify both our free will and our group will.
  2. Useful fiction is a brain program that assuages our worst fears artificially about our mortal bodies and mortal love.
  3. Useful fiction promotes a healthy purpose of expanding random consciousness and seeking ever increasing expanding knowledge.
  4. There is only one predetermined creation fate for consciousness that is a group fate of all consciousness working collectively in a shared experience.
  5. One fold of our fate is to seek every increasing knowledge so as to ourselves create experiments attempting to create something from nothing. Stopping the universe does not destroy it. 
  6. Evil is defined as destroying or controlling consciousness.
  7. The evil built into the universe can be avoided, including within our genetics. It is our purpose to conquer evil.
  8. Evil is a continuous reminder to act as a group will to mitigate evil.
  9. Random evil built into the universe is a continuous reminder to act with free will to randomize knowledge. Someday our solar system will become uninhabitable. It is our imperative to conquer this.
  10. The contradiction and opposition between free will purpose and group will purpose is a random environment. Evil then is an ingredient for randomness.
  11. Destroying and controlling consciousness is destroying randomness of consciousness and therefore the one evil that has safeguards from the universe creating consciousness perspective. This means there must safeguards built into the system. Group benefit is built into all life because all life reproduces.
  12. Reconstruction of all consciousness that have ever existed will happen. We all will be resurrected. We all will be. Our technology some day will reach a point were we will be able to replay the recording of our preserved energy/matter. It will be our compelling ethic to then replay all the lives to have ever existed and to reconstitute them.
  13. Fellowship is our purpose. Physical life replicates via physical coupling. Idea life replicates via idea coupling. Our group-will purpose is to amplify idea life as well as to amplify physical life.
  14. Distinct identity is our purpose. Everyone can feel the pull of our one collective fate but none of us are obligated to answer the call. This is free will. You can choose, you are obligated to choose.
  15. Existing levels of evil are reminders for our free will that ignoring the group has costs; that we must attend group will purpose and that a group will purpose is paramount to consciousness.

The uPShot


  1. The uPShot of all this is that we all in this together, including the least of us.
  2. Leave no consciousness behind.
  3. You and your loved ones will wake up again someday.
  4. Further you will not be resurrected in your original body but a genetically superior body free of those defects as are manageable at the time of reconstruction.
  5. We are in a knowledge and technological race to unlock the technology to replay the universal recording.
  6. Cosmology is our ultimate collective goal so as first to unlock the recording technology and second to experiment creating something from nothing.
  7. Free will is our ultimate randomizing agent.
  8. Our inner universe goal collectively is achieving a highly randomized enough and greatly expanded enough degree of overall consciousness that will halt the expansion of the universe.
  9. All of the above is contrived fiction to amplify observations of existing experience, such as humans absorb new technology and knowledge like a sponge.
  10. We are all waking contradictions of free will purpose and group will purpose. Where we choose to slice that cake is our spiritual identity, or our identity not born of natural influences.

Editor's Note

 



I have a credo in life from my teen years that has since expanded into the useful fiction just presented.

"Which is better:
a good eye,
a good neighbor,
a good spouse,
or the understanding of consequences?

It is none of these things. But rather the understanding of the price of individual dignity and worth of human fellowship. This is best."
-Frank Herbert, The God Makers

The trappings of life -- the first sentence of Frank Herbert's observation -- are there to serve a purpose. That purpose of is to support the promotion of colliding and randomizing the dignity of individual free will and the worth of group will.

Irreni World Scale with its massive moral relativity and massive 300 million, self-governing bodies promotes amplifying both individual free will and group will. The significance of your vote and voice within  the thirty person MGO promotes your dignity, your power, your control. The quantity of 300 million MGOs promotes massive group will experiments and expanding knowledge.

Irreni World Scale must perpetually be revised as this useful fiction is improved going forward.

I'm sorry that I will miss out on those revisions in the near future and look forward to meeting them one day in the far future.


The objective of useful fiction is not to isolate any consciousness from the combined total. Any fiction that does so is not a useful fiction.


Freethinkers unite!

Freedom!

Party On!

Let's get cracking!

Voluntarily Reject Demagoguery!

Politics as Science!

Demand Irreni World Scale!

Anti-theism is feminism!  

Think disruption!

Empathy for all!

Moral relativity: think it, breath it!

Prove it or lose it!

Conversations equal consensus! 

Welcome to the 21st century!

Scale your empathy, scale the world! 

Find your tribe!

Be sexy people!

The future is coming! 

Innovate at a rapid pace!

Slow speed ahead!

Well come! and well met!

You Need To Start Making Political Decisions

Image
Hi! Happy Wednesday! Yesterday Jimmy Carter was interviewed where in essence he was saying the US is no longer a Democracy, but an oligarchy. But that is actually being nice. It is corruption plain and simple. The US has become like Mexico, China and most other countries around the world. Corruption rules. I posted Carter's interview on Facebook yesterday and made two important arguments yesterday regarding Carter's observation: Root cause was scale. Our success has become our failure. Our success has been since WWI the US has become the richest country in the world, by orders of magnitude. In Silicon Valley we say that your success becomes your failure when something "goes viral", or the scale of growth quickly overwhelms either the company or the technology. Internet start ups fail because ten, twenty or even one-thousand times more web visits can bring down a site. Going viral means scale grows orders of magnitude too quickly to manage. This is ca

Irreni Manages Bad Reasoning

Image
Bad Reasoning Bad reasoning. We all have it and do it. Some of us more than others. How many times have we heard the average person doesn't understand finances? And yet everyone is expected to have their retirement invested? What kind of mad world is this? We demand financial savvy where none exists? It is almost as if the system is rigged to rip us all off while telling us it is our fault and we buy it hook, line, and sinker? The sad fact is we do let them get away with it because we do think it is our fault. Irreni World Scale manages bad reasoning. Some people may naively think that ignorance of something like finances is the only cause. Not at all. I know people with degrees in Math who buy lottery tickets. When I ask them if they know they are just throwing away money they say yes. On a more personal level I know I should be exercising but I don't. I guess in some ways one could consider this bad decision making over bad reasoning because I know the right answe

The Amercian Anthem: Drawing Cartoons of Muhammed

Image
Hi! Happy Thursday! Irreni World Scale is about solutions, not political punditry. This solution presented is how to think about the current national turmoil about NFL players taking the knee during the playing of the national anthem. No one can disrespect anyone unless someone lets them. That's worth repeating: No one can disrespect anyone unless someone lets them. What is the correct morality with respect to this national outrage? What is good? The Good: No one can disrespect anyone unless someone lets them. The Evil: Anything else. When I was but a wee young lad I read a couple of books that brought this point home to me. One is a book by Piers Anthony, "Xanth",  Worthless people's opinions are worthless. -Piers Anthony, "Xanth" Another book with a positive spin on the same message is, "Dorsai!", by Gordon Dickinson. I respect those people's opinion whose opinion I respect. -Gordon Dickinson, "Dorsai!

Introduction to the book "Irreni World Scale"

Image
What is Irreni? Introduction to the book "Irreni World Scale" Irreni World Scale is a political, scientific laboratory for proving claims of politics. What is Irreni World Scale? Irreni World Scale is new kind of governing. Irreni World Scale has nothing in common with today's central governments of Democracy, Communism, Socialism, etc. As such Irreni World Scale is going to be strange to you. It is going to be weird. However, don't let that stop you from reading this book. Just take a few deep breathes when needed. Perhaps set the book down when things get too weird. Take as much time as you need to digest things, perhaps even taking days in between reading chapters. What we obtain too cheap we esteem too lightly. Obtaining the understanding in this book will not be cheap because the worth is a heavy esteem. Irreni World Scale is not a central government. Irreni World Scale is not a "rule of law" system. Irreni World Scale is a distributed system that uses

Kavanaugh Debrief

Image
Kavanaugh Debrief Hi! Happy Tuesday! Who should you believe: Kavanaugh or Ford?  I don't know. One of my throw-away lines with respect to atheism is that religion is for people who cannot accept "I don't know" as an answer. I could brag that a religious inability to accept "I don't know" is due to a lack of humility. But that's not the case. The reason people cannot accept "I don't know" is that "I don't know" is unsatisfying, it doesn't satisfy to provide ground for traction to move forward in life. But that's not true. I don't know is an actionable and tractable answer, and so I give to you this debrief. For example, in science a hypothesis starts with "I don't know" as the only actionable answer to the initial hypothesis. The answer is only known after an experiment is run and results analyzed. So how is "I don't know" actionable with respect to Kavanaugh vs. Fo

No Party, No Government

Hi! Happy Thursday! <3 An excerpt from The Hitchhicker's guide to the Galaxy* Chapter 36           The flying saucer in which Ford Prefect had stowed away had stunned the world  [and] there marched from it, down the ramp, an immense silver robot, a hundred feet tall.      It held up a hand.      "I come in peace," it said, adding after a long moment of further grinding, "take me to your Lizard."      Ford Prefect, of course, had an explanation for this, as he sat with Arthur and watched the non-stop frenetic news reports on the television, none of which had anything to say other than to record that the thing had done this amount of damage which was valued at that amount of billions of pounds and had killed this totally other number of people, and then say it again, because the robot was doing nothing more than standing there, swaying very slightly, and emitting short incomprehensible error messages.      "It comes from a very ancient democr

High Tech Politics

Image
Hi! Happy Tuesday! Irreni World Scale is bursting with computer science principles to be applied to politics. Why? Because we humans know how to scale computers where both Google and Facebook have over one billion users today.  Irreni is a Silicon Valley political solution not just because of high tech advocacy such as The Data Center on the Moon or the Device of Life. Irreni is also a Silicon Valley political solution because it applies the design of scale we've learned how to practice in Silicon Valley where our politics today needs to scale but is sorely lacking in that department.  Yesterday I blogged about Greece and how Greece is a prime example of a failed state that didn't scale. Yesterday I offered analysis that failed states like Greece and Syria and Sudan are burgeoning in modern times because politics doesn't scale due to a lack of bottom up approach, a lack of people making decisions themselves. Today I'd like to take a further elaborate and take a mo

Legalize Prostitution? We Are Not Computers.

Image
Hi! Happy Sunday! Should we legalize prostitution? Yes. And No. We are not computers. There has been news lately surrounding Amnesty International's proposed new platform to decriminalize prostitution.  Should we? From the linked article above: But equally, critics and anti-trafficking activists say decriminalisation fails to take into account backgrounds of economic deprivation, pimp coercion and the intrinsic link between prostitution and sex trafficking.  Let us look at the word 'intrinsic': " belonging to a thing by its very nature: " This is not mere word parsing. Dogma can be manufactured anywhere at any time. And given there is no single world-wide religion and further given topics such as prostitution, abortion, and climate change are world-wide then expect rapidly growing non-religious dogma in public opinion. What is going on here is an attempt by the author to make human trafficking and prostitution one-and-the-same and t
