The Monument Counter is an on line (internet) monument to commemorate women who lost their lives due to domestic violence. It is also a counter that is updated every day.

Is this a paraphrased copy of the top comment on the page or am I tripping?

It's definitely a paraphrased copy of the top comment.

Maybe these are the ones they wanted us to find.

I don't know exactly why but usage of corporate memphis makes it a bit jarring for me.

https://deadstar.one Started blogging a few years ago. Although my writing has been stagnant for a while now, I'm intended to write more. I have a few personal pieces here.

I might be wrong but I think his responses has been shadow banned, they do not appear in his profile or replies section yet they show up if you follow a direct link to them. Interesting. Anyone more knowledgable care to explain what's happening here?

In a whistleblower statement to congress, Peter "Mudge" Zatko mentions that Twitter lacks plans and processes to "cold boot"

56. Cascading data center problems: In or around the spring of 2021, Twitter's primary data center began to experience problems from a runaway engineering process, requiring the company to move operations to other systems outside of this datacenter. But, the other systems could not handle these rapid changes and also began experiencing problems. Engineers flagged the catastrophic danger that all the data centers might go offline simultaneously. A couple months earlier in February, Mudge had flagged this precise risk to the Board because Twitter data centers were fragile, and Twitter lacked plans and processes to "cold boot." That meant that if all the centers went offline simultaneously, even briefly, Twitter was unsure if they could bring the service back up. Downtime estimates ranged from weeks of round-the-clock work, to permanent irreparable failure.

oh boy! I remember playing this game several years ago.

Here's how my run went:

The path you took: [ "800 (number)", "Factorial prime", "Integer", "C (programming language)", "Operating system", "Computer program", "Programmer", "Flight simulator", "Space flight simulation game", "Video game" ]

In Turkey, where I live, online transactions require 2FA. An sms is sent for you to enter the pin or a notification is sent to your online banking app asking for approval. I thought this was a standard procedure in online banking.

The thing about time loop is that, how and when did it began? I just can't wrap my head around something being here, there and everywhere at all times.

You're right. In fact a time loop has the same something from nothing problem any other theory has.

Imagine a flatlander universe. Package up time in another dimension and you can represent their entire existence as a static 3d cube. Timeloops would just be a static torus in the cube.

The same is true of a 3 spatial dimension + 1 time dimension universe. You can view it as a static 4d tesseract. Timeloops are just a 4-taurus. Where did that 4 Taurus come from? It's the same something from nothing problem.

It's something we learn very early in the philosophy of science, is that our vision of the world will always be inherently limited by the capabilities of our perception and the way we process it

with time loops. It began half way though me writing this sentence — that's the thing

There are only two alternatives for the origin of the universe: Either creation out of nothing, or no creation through eternal existence.

Both are hard to wrap your head around.

That's the thing about time-loops; you don't need to have a start and a beginning. There's a good movie about that concept; Interstellar.

Interstellar is pretty much nonsense even given the premise. Even if you are talking about time travel you can easily make something more plasuible than that.

Also Interstellar had information passing from the future to the past which isn't really what's typically sufficent to consider it a time loop.

The time loop is allowed by the current understanding of physics. The math checks out.

Interstellar has one, but for that topic I'd suggest Predestination: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Predestination_(film)

I'd also suggest watching it before reading that plot synopsis.

It's a metaphysical assumption, meaning beyond the realm of experimental science. Science has inherent limitations, and cannot be used to explain everything. This is a good starting point: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=If3cNUixEBM

How did I know before I clicked that link that it was going to be apologetics.

Faith is not a shortcut to knowledge. "Hey, we can't yet find the answer to big questions through rational means, so let's try irrational means!"

Interesting how you just said science "cannot be used to explain everything" and yet now you're claiming "proof" and "evidence" (i.e. science) for your particular religion. Make up your mind.
