Maslow and Cloud Computing

2010-03-01T08:20:00.000-08:00

If we want to use cloud computing to increase the eupsychian dynamism
in the sky, we have to think about boundaries and pressures. Clouds
have boundaries which are necessarily fuzzy. At the edges, it's hard
to tell insiders from outsiders. Just like the blood vessels must keep
out bubbles, cloud computing must keep out contaminants. This is
controlled by all of the protein osmotic pressure math and stoichiometry
that the chemists have worked out. Maslow worked out the management
side of it in his "Eupsychian Management."

The trick is to use only union plumbers at the boundaries because
they are both insiders and outsiders. And they have the means to make
it all safe.

What is an Operating System?

2009-07-09T09:11:00.000-07:00

Isn't it interesting to see how we forgot what an Operating System is supposed to do for us. You set the thermostat, type to it, maybe talk to it, and have it fire up the things you want to do. Somebody along the way forgot to differentiate between mentor and journeyman. Tools, man, tools. Remember the Maslow hammer and nail quote? Will I saw through concrete with a Japanese flush saw? Will I use my new table saw to cut styrofoam? What if I just want to surf the web, take notes, write up simple documents, urinate around to leave tracks and not much more? What if I am 80% of the user base?

See how this works?

Third.ORG will see you now. The green room has an Interositer.

Stand up, EuTwit, for you are worth my time. Putting my father, Gur to work on Twitter to familiarize the neerds with Muuslof.

Gestation

2009-03-07T07:26:00.000-08:00

I've neglected this for a good while. But as a society, we're still pregnant, so I have time. Looking for social oxytocin, I guess. More later...

First Sighting of B-deprivation in Gaming

2008-07-11T10:15:00.000-07:00

Brian has begun to define B-deprivation in gaming. There is the instinctoid craving for the next level. If I explore my aptitudes and strengths and have no place to use them to defend the Realm, what good am I? This will only lead to metapathology if it isn't fixed. Games must have objectives besides making money. They must make value.

Everybody knows what the "Next Big Thing" is going to be. It's just a matter of noticing exactly when it started so we can write it down in the History of the Future.

Maslow Teaches Us That

2008-07-01T14:59:00.000-07:00

Beauty is Simple. Truth is Simple.
Justice is Comprehensive.
Unity is Simple and Comprehensive.
Truth is Funny in a B-way.

Best place to stick thoughts: it has spark and contrast. Carlinesque. CocksuckerMotherFucker..., etc.

First thought: what about

Birthing a New Capitalism

2007-10-17T06:04:00.001-07:00

Our wonderous new group cortex, the Web, is increasingly cluttered by D-realm mentality and programming. The ubiquitous D-clutter (swindle-oriented, pushy, obnoxious attention drains with "monetizing" as the goal) is like hair and string in a vacuum cleaner.

We can spend our time mechanomorphically creating better and better filters and blocking mechanisms, increasing horsepower, etc., but the more elegant solution to this domination by lower forms is to do what Maslow suggests in his "answer to Das Kapital," Eupsychian Management. We must redefine profits and costs to include human assets. Using the Web to swindle is as anti-human as denying treatments for cancer (which is also lauded by the D-manager).

This blog will comment on Maslow's work in terms of eupsychian capitalism and eupsychian democracy. But first, the gardner here must do some necessary painting, lest his beloved wife snap off his head. The web is a good tool for painting a good future, but one must also do the dishes unless he has given up food.
