Distributing Stanford Mine Pi cryptocurrency to end poverty to all 7.9 billion people as academic philosophical experiments?


Dear Johanna, Colin, All, 

Thanks so much for your email, Colin. Johanna, algorithm appreciation experiments and moral discretion - as people decide whether, agency-wise, how and when to adopt Stanford Mine Pi cryptocurrency algorithms, and related MainNet Blockchain algorithms - scaled to 7.9 billion people (N=7.9 billion) and administered out of LMU (Ludwig Maximilian University of Munich) and TUM (Technische Universität München) especially, in conjunction with World University and School in Wikidata (in its 300 languages) Wikimedia Berlin?

Just replied to Colin here:

Dear Colin, 

Sounds good, thanks! 

An algorithm appreciation experiment - re the studies Johanna Jauernig cited - with a sample size of 7. 9 billion people, with Stanford Mine Pi cryptocurrency free money daily? Could such an academic experiments' and studies' approach to study moral discretion regarding algorithms be a way too to end poverty among all 7.9 billion people on the planet, speakers of all 7151 known living languages (re WUaS wiki schools in all of these), and create a single main cryptocurrency in 200 countries and in all of their languages - as a way also to grow highest quality MIT OCW-centric free universal education & degrees, for all 7.9 billion people on planet?

This would be one huge philosophy experiment building on Johanna Jauernig's interesting talk.

Thank you, abolitionally, regards, 
Scott

I'm writing my upcoming "Society, Information Technology and the Global University" book this year (with my physical-digital Harbin Hot Springs' ethnographic book project #2 to follow) so wouldn't be able to be a lead author on any related further "Algorithm Appreciation Experiments, Stanford Mine Pi, Agency and Moral Discretion" hypothetical papers or experiments (as I suggested yesterday) but would be happy to contribute some ideas.

Here's a related consciousness (cognition too, Colin?) idea in conversation with a great David Chalmer's talk on F 1/20/23 -

AND 

Could a #RealisticVirtualHarbinEthnography in #GoogleStreetView w #TimeSlider w #GTranslate #TensorFlowAI as #LLM become #Conscious? i.e. virtual #HeartConsciousnessChurch @HarbinBook: @davidchalmers42 more about your 1/20/23 talk> https://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2023/01/ocellated-turkey.html  in /consciousness label :)

"Seeing you?" (continuing)

 

Dear Ken Thompson MD, All, 

Greetings, and good to hear from you a week ago on Monday.

Just texted my mother: 
'Good morning my wonderful mother! Am wondering how best to get into a rhythm in writing my upcoming "Society, Information Technology and the Global University" book, - and think possibly a daily blogging of it would be great ... I may begin today ... What are you up to? Continuing to circulate in seeking a life partner, and would talk with Ken Thompson MD about this if possible ... Thank you very much for the invitation on 12/31/22 to talk with him. 💕 Love, Scott'


Glad my Reed College friend from 1979, Tym Lenderking in the US state department, who is in Oman, Yemen, KSA in the Middle East presently inquired in text messages about another possible murder here at 210 East End Avenue, Pgh PA 15221, and here's a brief recap again - 

Tym: 
Yes indeed we are making progress though no breakthrough yet beyond what is already in place in terms of de-escalation.  

I didn't catch a second murder.  Who/what was that? 


Scott:
Glad you are making peace progress, Tym. Beyond what happened to Jackson Shannon NYC, who is deceased, Harold Tyler, another (former?) resident here at 210  East End Avenue Pgh PA 15221 'disappeared' with mail piling up for around 2 months, and 2 FAUX? legal notices on the front door, like the potential faux obituary for Jackson Shannon. Was Harold Tyler murdered? Is craven frederic khayat a main 'thinker' re both these possible deaths ? With 'kristy' in the rooms across from the front door popping out - is she a prostitute, and frederic khayat's? - the other night as I came home, and asked "Who's Harold Tyler?" ... could both of these disappearances be construed as threats or warnings - to me (since it was frederic khayat's male friend in the front porch room who told me by the mail boxes that jackson shannon is deceased? In asylum in Pennsylvania from California, and seeking to move back into a newly safe Canyon 94516 in September - if federal and state of PA and CA legal processes are working effectively together, newly. Good luck with your diplomacy in KSA, Oman and Yemen! Hoping to get Yemen World Univ & Sch going with an emerging WUaS -Google platform. Abolitionally, hugs, Scott


Glad Tym also suggested talking with you Ken the other day! 

Time to move out of 210 East End Avenue Pgh PA 15221 ... if it is a 'murderous house' - and in a timely fashion ... if craven frederic khayat isn't being evicted ...  if state of Pennsylvania law and federal law aren't working successfully or effectively together to protect people here (like in California, regarding my asylum in PA)? Hoping to talk with you about this too, Ken. 

Thanks too for saying you'd talk with me ... predicated on UPMC health care coverage ... and I think I'll seek to contact Dr. Demoise, my new PCP whom I haven't met yet, and the "UPMC for Life letter received Th 17 Nov 2022" people to inquire further about how this would work. 

Thank you, abolitionally, best wishes, looking forward to talking, 
Scott

UPMC for Life letter received Th 17 Nov 2022


Dear UPMC's Dr David Demoise, Morgan Cross, Denise Hughes, Medicare Advisor @UPMC.edu, Dr. Kenneth Thompson MD, Larry Viehland, Ma (Jane MacLeod), All, 

Greetings, Dr. Demoise, and Dr. Thompson, and All. I'm writing in this 'UPMC for Life letter received Th 17 Nov 2022' email thread regarding, I think, UPMC's Denise Hughes, above, many months ago, saying I could see a specialist without going through my UPMC PCP (and I have an appointment to see you for an annual physical on W February 22, 2023). On my birthday on 12/31/22 my mother (Jane MacLeod, above) invited me to see Pittsburgh psychiatrist Dr. Ken Thompson MD, who is not an UPMC psychiatrist, and with whom I have been talking on the phone a very tiny bit, and whom I've also been emailing about related questions, and who has said he would see me professionally, but we haven't gotten any farther than this. Concerned about my father's 2 subdural hematomas (and Gordon K MacLeod MD was a Pitt professor of public health, and also taught Grand Rounds at the University of Pittsburgh's Medical School in the 1970s, and 1980s I think, and was also the president of the Pitt Faculty Senate toward the end of his career), from which he died from some 2 3/4 years later, the first one on Pitt-managed Semester at Sea in the country of Belize on December 30, 2004, and seeking too to begin a family, I'm writing to inquire if you could please authorize UPMC health care to cover 6 sessions with Dr. Ken Thompson MD to talk further about navigating these and a number of related questions? Ken Thompson MD is very familiar with my situation, and our fathers were both MDs too, and friends as well. Ken is in an unique knowledgeable psychiatric MD position to address the issues I'm navigating. Since I haven't heard back from Ken Thompson MD regarding his saying he would see me, and to schedule sessions (with UPMC coverage), regarding UPMC's saying I could see a specialist without going through my PCP, and regarding that Ken isn't a UPMC psychiatrist, I'm writing to you Dr. Demoise to inquire if you could please authorize this? How please to best gain UPMC authorization for me to see Dr. Ken Thompson MD for 6 sessions, in a timely fashion, and before I move back into a newly safe Canyon 94516 (thanks to speaking with John Sargent MD, a psychiatrist at Tufts' Medical Center, with whom I've spoken with professionally from Canyon 94516, and thanks to Ed Smyth MD, a retired KP MD, who also sought to precipitate my moving into Canyon 94516 again on W 4/15/22, but when Ed came over for tea and smoothies to my physical "unsafe house" north of Berkeley, on Arlington Blvd, El Cerrito, on W 4/13/22 suggested Canyon 94516 wasn't yet safe) in September 2023?


Looking forward to meeting you for my annual physical on 2/22/23 at UPMC Shadyside Presbyterian Hospital with masks on! Thank you, Dr. Demoise, All !
