- 2-1a5a Evolution doesn’t care about lifetime of each individual gene-meme carrier (its sample is beyond your own experience and any human lifetime)
- 7-1a2d Optimizing for growth can lead to discovering startup ideas. It’s a form of evolutionary pressure.

- Maybe the topology of money—in particular how the concepts of success and failure emerge with money—provides a hint as to how the DNA genetic code provided that universalityrevisit

- 1-2g2f The virtual-reality rendering of their environment (i.e., creating knowledge about its niches) is the characteristic means by which human beings (and life in general) survive
- 1-2g2i0 Life is computation in the sense of assuming other object (i.e., genes assuming its surrounding environment)
- 1-2g2j Accurate rendering depends on understanding its physics. The converse is also true - discovering the physics of an environment depends on creating a virtual-reality rendering of it. And explanation already is rendering inside one’s mind.
- 1-2g2j1 Accuracy is the closeness, as far as is perceptible, of the rendered environment to the intended one (intension)
- 1-2g2t3e Other life-forms can’t permeate across the multiverse because biological knowledge is primarily about the surrounding environment and its correspondence within THAT universe, and the latter is subject to ‘randomness’
- 13-8a2 The demand for money stems from fundamental uncertainty about both the future environment and the future-self
