I didn't understand everything completely, however when you mentioned "relevance realization" it reminded me of a recent post which gave labels to data which was of different levels of usefulness. The exact labels he used isn't particularly important, but the categories that they represent are extremely useful. He outlines, more or less, that there are three types of information:
1. Unsorted, unfiltered data. Without a way to discriminate the signal from the noise, this data is basically useless. One example he gives are unsorted error logs for a given computer.
2. Highly relevant, well processed data. When the raw data is filtered, modified, and processed into a hyper usable form, that's when it is... (read more)
Reading your post, the idea of Concept Dependency reminded me of the way that some people implement their Zettelkasten systems using Obsidian software. This software uses wiki-type links, and has the native ability that if you press control while hovering over one of these links, that you get a preview. These previews render (mostly) normally, except they are smaller than usual. They can still be scrolled like usual, links clicked internally, and so on.
I sometimes see people using these links in a way similar to how you are describing concept dependency posts. For example, if something contained a quote where a word is being used in an unusual way (like philosophers love... (read more)
McDonald's on the other hand... changes their frying oil every two weeks. 8 hours by 14 days
As a quick point— McDonald’s fryers are not turned off as much as you think. At a 24 hour location, the fry/hash oil never turns off. The chicken fryer might be turned off between 4am and 11am if there’s no breakfast item containing chicken. Often it just gets left on so no one can forget to turn it on.
One thing to consider also, is the burnt food remaining in the fryers for many hours. Additionally, oil topped up between changes.
I don’t remember how often we changed the oil but I thought it was once per week. It was a 24 hour location
I know that you said comments should focus on things that were confusing, so I'll admit to being quite confused.
I think that ideas are not very clearly presented here, and I become a bit confused. I will try to explain what I understood from the article followed by some comments.
1. It is possible that we have no free will. That our minds try to interpret our actions, but have no control over our body's action.
2. Some people believe that if they have no control over their physical actions, there would be no need to use our mind to determine right or wrong -- because that information cannot "go backwards" to the brain that controls physical actions.
3. When people choose not to explore the possibility we might lack free will, this... (read more)
I'm inclined to agree with other commenters: While the concepts presented in the article are very useful, the name "garbage" information is itself cursed information, because if we tried to talk to someone about garbage information, they already have a very strong preconception that will be called up, which doesn't align with what you're trying to communicate.
You're using "garbage" to mean that the noise to signal ratio is fundamentally unusable. However when others think of "garbage" information, they think of something like a malfunctioning sensor, where all of the data collected is useless and should be thrown away. Instead, you mean that there is good data there, but it gets lost under a pile of irrelevant information.
I would say the distinction is important to avoid incorrect intuitions.
I think I don't have the correct background to understand fully. However, I think it makes a little more sense than when I originally read it.
An analogue to what you're talking about (referential containment) with the medical knowledge would be something like PCA (principle component analysis) in genomics, right? Just at a much higher, autonomous level.
