Exceptional laws Let me apply these cases to the context (H.
R.
Giger's book calls) 'biomechanics', translated something like 'metaphysical biology' or 'arcane statistics': In the first category, unity as a presage of over-unity, is an envisionment of a minimum standard of comprehension, comprehension which does not compromise the state of the body.
Nor is this a specific type of comprehension, instead it is a kind of gnostic idea of 'supereity' or adequation.
This is something like having potential to do something important, or to be a concept.
It is related to preparedness, but not rash or indiscrete preparedness.
Nor is it madness.
Supereity.
Cultured potential.
In the second category geometry figures such concepts as hidden or granted potential; what may be suggested is that there is a strategic allocation to the concept of supereity.
Aspects of the self may be allocated to a central or secondary importance, depending on personal relation to unity or to secondary utility.
Ideally, one would be adapted to unify the centrality and utility of the self with the centrality and utility of the wider concept of universe or machine.
Thus it is not just the functionality of self, it is the functionality of cosmos re-iterated in the self.
This is frequently cited as the key to developing a functional personality.
The third category (combinations) is really about the appropriateness of each choice within the system.
As in the earliest case, there is a need to 'over-clock' or circumvent and anticipate failures.
Thus, strategy must be ahead of every curve.
In the worst case, some form of conservatism should shut down impudent decisions that have not gained the quality of a circle.
If there is a danger here, it is the capacity to shut down.
The fourth category (velocity or mass = momentum) is a reliance on hidden strengths.
One can second-guess appearances, producing a resilient principle which remains invisible.
It is not for temporary concerns to determine what the nature of the ultimate reality is.
Indeed, even a circle may not always know the fullest measure of existence, but it certainly tries its best.
That concludes the concepts which were oriented towards bettering Newton's Laws of Physics.
The next four relate with the Laws of Thermodynamics.
The fifth category (exponential gravity) is the simple idea that when a system is present, it can build and expand its frame of reference.
One should not assume that the original context of exploration is the full extent of the world.
One should not be caught on tropes and mores which express that only one or another feeling, activity, or location is appropriate.
Nor should one assume that because the context has shifted, that the functionality is moot.
Instead, functionality may gain by association.
The exponential.
The sixth category (distributed dynamics) expands the fifth category to levels of not only action, but association.
The meaning of a machine, a person, the world, may be different from its supposed function.
Thus, the spirit of a machine is a meaningful dynamic which relates to function through pragmatism, not through probability.
There is no statistical limitation of the meaning of a system by the subject of its terms.
Meaning is not finite except in an infinite system.
An infinite system has an infinite pragmatic, so the choice is an infinite pragmatic or a trans-finite significance.
The seventh category (exceptional statics) clarifies that not all base conditions are equal.
Oftentimes, potential exists only because of a difference in configuration.
In a purely adaptive context, with 100% adaptivity, every possible configuration is an exponential relation of functional variables.
One should not assume that function is contingent on configurations, if function is also contingent on applications.
Thus, applications and configurations may be exponential, but also are exponential with function.
Unless these three words mean exaclty the same thing (and they don't), there is a principle of advantage from combination.
Usability.
The eighth category (energy is relative) is an expansion of the usability principle to variables.
Configuration, application, and function are exponential with usable variables.
Whether this is context, or more like interface, there is one function that is forming a machine ('dynamo'), and another that is applying the machine to have an outward function.
Both the outer and the inner function may be functional.
And the outer and the inner may inter-permute, creating interesting functional relationships.
Essentially, one may 'play chess' and 'save game'.
The rewards are great.
The ninth category (reducible reality) says that sometimes there is a simple form of machine, and sometimes the entire context IS a machine.
One should not assume that nothing that is already operating is functional, nor should one assume that the already-existing-process will not continue.
Essentially, eliminating the negative is only negative when the negative is functional.
So yet another razor of success.
Functionality relatively exists.
The tenth category (exaggerated realism) refers to the functionality of gigantic machines.
We cannot know if the gigantic machine is less functional than the local machine.
It is like the famous Catholic argument that God's purposes may be greater than ours.
But apply this to functionalism.
The local machine may have a higher function than it appears to have.
Now the relatively-existent functions ALSO have a form of meaning, because there may be hidden exponents.
Hidden exponents.
The eleventh category (exceptional dynamics) refers to the relation of small machines to large ones.
There is no inherent scale to the functionality-as-meaning of machines.
A small machine may have a small function that is also highly meaningful.
Appearance has nothing to do with fulfilling a higher purpose, speaking in the abstract.
Meaning has momentum.
Small things may signify greater things without being great.
If they are complex, they may be more expensive, but technologically brilliant (think chemistry or biology).
And perhaps in some cases, a simple machine with a complex meaning can have the value of a technological device.
One would hope.
Again, meaning has momentum.
The twelfth category (exceptional laws) states that although it requires highly specific adaptation, much of the above advantages may be exponential with new types of laws, if these laws express potentials of nature.
Essentially, there is a dimensional principle that is near-universal.
Combining all the final characteristics is the following list, abbreviated: [1] Cultured potential, [2] Cosmic function acting in the finite individual, [3] Strategy versus conservatism, [4] The un-obvious, [5] The exponential, [6] Pragmatism or significance, [7] Usability, [8] Play chess and save game, [9] Functionality relatively exists, [10] Hidden exponents, [11] Meaning has momentum, [12] To the extent of nature I hope these elements serve as interesting potential principles for the seeker; This concludes the Secret Principles of Immortality, Edition 11.
