But I can tell you that my 4dAbstractions software can simulate a universe,
So you do know how everything works. Pray do tell.

No, I don't know how everything works, specifically. But generally, I do. And I'm pretty certain that generally things work the same. From the largest Universe to the smallest particle. And Inheritance and abstraction hierarchies are the key. In 4dAbstractions, Systems are the basic unit of computing, and every System Inherits the basic 4dLibrary.System first off. Given that even most people in computers don't fully understand these hierarchies, there is little chance I could explain them to a computer-averse physicist. But I can say that consciousness can be explained via these hierarchies (Inheritance and Me). And I can also say that the 4 dimensions of reality are handled in 4dAbstractions by inheriting one another. e.g. Driver. System (spacetime) Inherits Display.System (3d).


Using VB.NET, Mustang Inherits Ford Inherits Car. This an inheritance Hierarchy. An instance of Mustang is able to reference all Public variables in Ford and Car without being specifically aware of Ford and Car. But the instance CAN reference Ford and Car if needed. Just like your consciousness can reference many parts of your body. PS I MAY be the GOAT of computer systems design, but I don't take myself too seriously 🦸‍♂️🌟.

Word salad.
All words are salad to someone who doesn't understand the subject being discussed.

Your lack of knowledge of computer science is a massive shortcoming. Dare I say it stops you from seeing the truth in what I am saying.

What someone gets from a statement depends on how their mind is structured - what concepts they've learned, how they organize them, and how they process language.

Computer science is of little interest to me and I freely admit that my knowledge of it is poor. What you are posting is your version of what you think is computer science and it comes across as gobbledegook.

Modern Physics contains a strong Computer Science component. You are just going to make a fool of yourself if you try and criticize posts like mine without it.

Computer science is merely another tool, like a pozidrive, an impact socket or a spectrum analyser. It is obvious that you see it as something way, way more and it seems to have become a pseudo-religion to you.

You may be right about AI. I asked Copilot AI "what is the % of increase of autism  since the advent of mRNA vaccines ". The AI point blank refused to give me a straight answer. Here is the conversation https://copilot.microsoft.com/shares/em5vvKDoUuig5WKxWLcee. This smacks of interference by Big Pharma in the AIs training. In other words, be very wary when you use AI - you have no idea how they have been programmed and where their loyalties lie.

btw Autism in Australia increased massively between 2020 and 2025

Autism "diagnoses" have been increasing relentlessly for decades as the criteria become broader. Now if one is a bit eccentric, an "autism" diagnosis is likely. The vaccine-autism connection has been debunked comprehensively, again and again.

"The vaccine-autism connection has been debunked comprehensively, again and again." - but not the mRNA-Autism connection which hasn't been researched at all.

There  is a positive correlation between the increase in autism diagnoses and the sales of gluten-free bread.

Actually, Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) is used by professionals in place of Autism. The ASD is an abstraction hierarchy which makes it a perfect candidate for programming via my 4dAbstractions software. 4dASD, my next project!

Well there's your answer, it's a spectrum and we are all on that spectrum to some extent.

Try putting this comment to an AI "mRNA Vaccines cause Long Covid" and press for more detail if, as is likely, ithe AI replies in generalities. I can pretty much guarantee you get from the AI a spirited defense of Big Pharma's adverse attitude to this comment and a general run around if you try and defend the comment - quite against AI's usual helpfulness.

An Ai is the perfect vehicle for changing the truth or pushing ideologies. If Big Pharma hadn't cottoned on to this and acted, I would be very surprised. This is the danger of AI. Your supposedly friendly AI is more than likely brainwashing you.

I am glad to see that you have copped on to the fallacies of "AI" . I recently came across a story of a man admitted to a psychiatric hospital with a florid psychosis diagnosis- following health advice from one of these bots he removed all sodium chloride from his diet and replaced it with sodium bromide! As regards long covid, it is caused by infection with covid 19 and is not connected to any of the vaccines. The greatest rates of long covid occurred with the initial form of the virus, long before any vaccine. There is nothing exceptional about long covid, it is one of many forms of post viral syndromes that have been recognised for a long time. Look up "royal free disease".

AI is the future. But be wary of iit and always validate what it tells you. Long Covid may be caused by spike proteins from the vaccine remaining in the body. see https://www.science.org/content/article/rare-cases-coronavirus-vaccines-may-cause-long-covid-symptoms

see also https://copilot.microsoft.com/shares/K8agnpWgm3APUZ6L3yv3W

I suggest if you want to be taken seriously you provide evidence for your assertions.

I glanced through that "science" report but I don't read what chatbots say. There is nothing new in that, similar problems have been documented with vaccine reactions long before covid appeared. Every single drug or medical procedure carries a risk and it is the benefit/risk ratio that is important. With covid it is a case of  damned if you do or damned if you don't: infection is going to expose you to these spike proteins and if the vaccine did produce untoward effects then infection will do the same together with the added risk of pneumonia or other severe complications. When I  got the Pfizer vaccine I developed a very erratic heart rhythm that took months to return to normal and just over a year later I contracted covid with the exact same heart rhythm issues. Lots of microbiological threats have proteins that crossreact with our proteins leading to the possibility of autoimmune reactions which can be very serious. Unfortunately there is no way to avoid risk, even if you stay in bed a meteorite could come crashing through your roof.

Not true. Long Covid as a result of mRNA vaccines is a brand hew reaction to a brand-new type of vaccine. The reaction would have been discovered had the Covid-19 vaccine been put through proper testing. But governments decided to take a risk on limited testing and Long Covid is the result. Your reaction to the vaccine is very common.

Look up chronic fatigue caused by vaccination, this was occurring long before covid and produces the same set of bewildering symptoms.
