Talk:China brain

replies: text: I don't get it: what the "Chauvinism" section has to do with chauvinism? GregorB (talk) 21:51, 27 January 2009 (UTC)
replies: text:  'Chauvanism' and 'liberalism' are both used in non-standard (yet well-established) senses within the literature. A theory is 'too liberal' if it ascribes something (e.g. mental states) to things which don't have it. It is 'too chauvanistic' if it restricts its ascriptions to something (e.g. only those things with identical neurophysiology to humans). The Block article uses both these terms in advancing its argument. DACrowe10 (talk) 02:17, 1 June 2011 (UTC)

thread_title:  Lawrence Davis 

message: I find this topic fascinating because it leads to the debate of simulated consciousness vs. true consciousness. Where is the line drawn? How can we tell the difference? Is it morally right to create a simulated consciousness so complex that even its creator sees it as a true mind? This topic should be added to a robotics section for this reason, but I don't know how to do that.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.219.180.181 (talk) 19:38, 4 December 2013 (UTC)
thread_title:  Simulated Mind 

message: This really puts too much emphasis on qualia. The objections discussed here are not versions of the absent qualia objections. As I understand it, Block would contend that the Chinese nation does not collectively believe that, say, the moon revolves around the Earth or desire that the bus arrive on time. That is, the counterexamples are supposed to be quite general objections to a functionalist account of mental states and minds. (Block does raise objections concerning qualia, but the China example targets mental states *generally*.) In addition, the absence of qualia does not a zombie make. Conscious experience is not constituted solely by quales or, if it is, that is a substantive and controversial philosophical claim and not something which should be taken for granted.

message: As Disambiguation and Redirects are only vaguely related, shouldn't this be two separate categories? -- User:Docu
*Maybe. I guess they both are intended to direct the reader to a different page.  Main or See give the reader the option of going to another article, if the reader wants to learn more.  Disambiguation and redirection pages are just way stations on the way to the article the reader actually intended to read.  Not a great distinction, but it's what I was thinking at the time I made this category.  It's a gross over-generalization, I admit.

message: Is the bifurcation diagram really a bifurcation diagram? Or is it an orbit diagram? I was under the impression that bifurcation diagrams plotted both stable and unstable fixed points, while orbit diagrams plotted just stable fixed points.

:I did not produce the plot, but it seems that for each parameter value of the map the orbit points are plotted.  I would prefer the expression orbit diagram, but bifurcation diagram is common usage.  Many of the plotted points are close to unstable periodic orbits, so in some sense there are unstable points in the diagram. — XaosBits 14:40, 29 April 2006 (UTC)

message: I redirected this article to Nano-RAM. It keeps getting its target changed, and was recently turned into a stub itself.

Talk:Larder

message: This part does not make much sense:
"In the northern hemisphere, most houses would arrange to have their larder and kitchen on the north or east side of the house where it received least sun. "
First of all, in the Northern hemisphere, ignoring shade trees and the like, the East and  West sides receive the same amount of light and heat. The East side receives it earlier, which is an advantage as the larder has cooled overnight.  Similar in the S. hemisphere. Carrionluggage 04:58, 27 January 2006 (UTC)

message: I have added  to the Etymology section. It currently reads:
"In the past, and in many peasant societies, the pig has been a vital source of food for the winter: it can be salted and preserved, and traditionally you can eat every part of it except its squeak."
Is this a way of referring to the sound a pig makes, i.e. squealing, or is it a butchery term of some sort referring to a specific part of the pig that cannot be eaten. Generally, I would think that it's referring to a squeal, but I'm confused why it would instead say squeak instead. Spelling error, perhaps? Sawta (talk) 17:26, 23 January 2017 (UTC)

Talk:1896 New Zealand general election

message: I am sourcing this from the 1896 and 1897 yearbooks; unfortunately they don't include party affiliations.  If anyone can add more of them (there should be 39 liberals and 35 independents), then that would be good.
NZ Elections site gives figures of 39 Liberals, 25 "conservatives", 6 Independants and 4 Others (Māori). The conservatives (small "c") were only named as such by their opposing Liberals, they were not formally constituted as a policital party (New Zealand Reform Party) until 1909. Incidentally, the article seems to colour-code the parties as Reform/Yellow and Independant/Grey - could this be made clearer? The numbers don't quite add up but then I don't know how many of the Independants were Liberal supporters. Fanx 19:33, 5 January 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: The affiliations from 1890 to 1902 are not 100% correct as they count all Maori MPs as Independents even though some had obvious affiliations. In 1896 for example 3 of the 4 Maori MPs were Liberals, the other an Independent. While elections.org.nz records 39 Liberals it is more likely 42, hence the issue with numbers not adding up as you've pointed out. Side note, Wilson (1985) uses capital C's for the Conservatives which is interesting. Kiwichris (talk) 08:42, 25 July 2016 (UTC)

Talk:Room Noises

message: I recently conducted a experiment to find out if metal or regualr cleets make you run faster. I found out that metal cleets (being made out of metal) make you run slower. The metal cleets dig into the dirt and it is harder for you to pull the cleets out. It might not seem that metal are slower but they are, and i recommend that you dont wear metal cleets when playing baseball or softball. However, I tried the experiment with regular cleets and got almost the exact same results. If you are running with metal cleets and someone else is running with non-metal you would probably lose the race, not to mention the fact that metal cleets, when in conact with your skin, will probably hurt, BAD.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Vinny95 (talk • contribs) 16:53, 6 September 2008 (UTC)
