Subjective Thinking and Free Software
Einstein described the path to his understanding the Universe as being built up purely from subjective deduction with no logical plan. His knowledge rested on a sympathetic understanding from the experience of taking this open path. Like meditation, he freely learned the truths of the Universe by freely allowing consideration and comparison between concepts and their possibilities in an open and flowing consciousness.
A computational model can internally be built within the mind by constructing varied perceptions and comparing them. In Einstein's time this could only happen in the mind. But now, Linux and other computer systems are presently being developed by the e-mutualists and quiet revolutionaries of the free computer culture will create the computational power to actually model the vast sea of data from all over the world to create all possible perceptions and make all the necessary comparisons to allow us a life where technology can make us as free and caring as it can make us efficient.
With Ed Snowden's NSA-leaking, the need for L4 as a modular, transparent operating system becomes even more obvious, and Linux with its monolithic/oligarchic architecture (and culture) becomes increasingly dangerous, and Windows might capitulate to the ultra-quick buck. Link below-right leads to my "crucible" on oddmuse where I do my "status updates."
