Attention Le Trivium Shill

I know you're here, I've seen you under a couple of threads shilling this book. I've started reading it and it's pretty interesting and seems based. However, I'm lazy and I struggle to see how this directly improves learning so can you give a tl;dr and outline your reasoning for why this improves learning so I can commit to finishing this book? Is it just about improving language comprehension or is there more to this? Thank you.

Note to jannies: book's about logic which is a subset of mathematics

Lifting in space

No.13421470 ViewReplyOriginalReport
Can you get big in space?

If you had artificial gravity, would all the same rules apply to lifting? (I.e. Space Station)

How would exercise/lifiting vary based on different planetary gravity levels?

Consciousness

No.13413767 ViewReplyLast 50OriginalReport
What are your hypotheses /sci/? What is the watcher behind the eyes? Are there many, or only one? Was Tesla right? Maybe Penrose? Both? Someone else?

My personal theory is that consciousness is pure observation. Memory, will, thought, and emotion are all chemical and physical. We have no actual control over them, but are just "watching" our thoughts and sensations. I think a living brain is like an antenna or space-time distortion. There's only one consciousness just like there's only one gravity. Time is dimension it can be expressed across like position, so our perceived individual separation and linear time are properties of our brains, not consciousness itself. When the brain is anaesthetized or killed, its conscious "force" weakens or disappears, like switching off an electromagnet. The local exertion is gone, but magnetism itself still exists.
