Since we are on a metaphorical plane today. Let me put my comment along similar lines on a youtube video [1] You see in Zombie movies, the zombie is always trying to turn an individual capable of moral decisions, empathy, insight into just another zombie out of his own self interest. Our society is actually far closer to the truth shown in those movies. Just because people are not biting each other does not mean thos…

This seems to be mostly a history of ideas about devils and demons, but it also has things that sound like the oversimplified/mythologized versions of history that neopagans come up with. Mainly this: > The traditional method of summoning demons involves drawing the sigil of your desired demon on the ground. If your summoning ritual is successful the demon will be conjured on the location of the sigil and be unable t…

Given the stigma attached to summoning demons I would expect a dearth of accurate historical documentation. Practitioners would have taken pains not to leave evidence of their activities.

That's a fair assessment, and it's one of the reasons that neopagans have had to fill in a lot of gaps.

Looking at those Demon sigils I'm wondering if any of them match Crop Circle patterns, at a quick glance they look pretty similar.

Since both are undoubtedly created by hoaxes and frauds, that's an interesting observation. I guess all artwork really is derivative.

It would be neat to trace that artistic lineage back to its sources.

Then again, there is a commenter on here claiming they look like circuit diagrams (whereas I look at schematics on a daily basis and see no resemblance). So stupid.

Earlier quoted context omitted.

In cryptography either you only need 'an x', in cases that the original x does not matter, or if it does, then you can just as easily find all x of size less than large enough N and find 'the x', it is still solely restricted by time. Laplace's demon, information loss, Landauer's principle etc. are at most tangentially related to the problem discussed

You understand that isn't the same mathematically as reversing the hash? If you farm the set of all possible x and try them to see what works you do not have an inverse function in your hands.

> If you farm the set of all possible x and try them to see what works you do not have an inverse function in your hands.

I'm not sure I follow, what do I have then? Could you give me an example?

The article does a great job at explaining an important topic (morality) to the common public, using analogies from popular culture and religion to make its point.

It resonates with the tech community because some may have been struggling with this dilemma in the shadows for a long time, due to the conflict of interests.

Since this was a “how to” guide, if you want to get serious, here is a short video how to do the opposite: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=XzWpa0gcPyo

I tried to buy a soul ~2004 but got the auction cancelled when I saw there was a duplicate auction

So long as they were transparent about the soul having been split I'm not sure I see the issue.

Didn't you read the ending of Harry Potter? Split souls are not something most people would want around!
