 "tak faham kenapa ada orang marah - bende itu sudah termaktub"

ekshellii ... saya ada pandangan lain sikit.

1. Perundangan apa-apa pun, boleh ditukar, SEKIRANYA, adanya sokongan majoriti. Kita abaikan topik ini dulu.

2. Bahasa tidak diwajibkan bagi penggunaan rakyat dalam perundangan. Ia mampu diundangkan begitu. Saya galakkan orang ramai cuba mengundangkannya - sebab saya pun dah penat dengan ...

3. ... isu orang A tak selesa dengan pendirian orang B, tapi tak nak mengundangkan isu itu. Isu hati kurang diwajibkan dalam perundangan. Jadi kita sepatutnya abaikan isu hati orang lain. KALAU satu isu penting, ia patut DIUNDANGKAN bukan biar sebagai isu hati saja. Contohnya : "sayang", "hormat", "setia" - perkataan ini semua tiada maksud, kecuali dalam otak setiap pemikir berasingan. Kalau nak membawa maksud serentak bagi rakyat, kena pakai undang, "jangan pijak bendera - kalau pijak masuk penjara" dan selainnya.

4. Ok. Sekarang kita sampai pada isu "mengapa kita takut, marah, duka, amok, dll dengan keselamatan institusi, walaupun sudah ada dalam perundangan". Pendek kata, ini bukan kecuaian. Semua gerakan perkataan di tempat awam, di media massa, surat khabar, TV, radio, medsos, sekolah awam, tempat awam ... BAKAL DIKAWAL SESIAPAPUN, jadi kenapa SESIAPAPUN, tidak nak mempergunakannya bagi mengukuhkan kuasa PARTI SENDIRI ? Kesemua isu ini adalah operasi perhubungan strategik dalam jentera politik sejak zaman dahulu, sejak TunM and mungkin boleh dikatakan sebelumnya. Bende ini memang KHAZANAH ZAMAN PERANG DINGIN.

5. Jadi siapa nak gerak untuk membatalkan politk berasaskan dengki dan pencacian antara kaum? Siapa lagi? Kalau bukan rakyat, yang SEDIA, dan MAMPU, dan DIKURNIAKN DENGAN MANDAT, siapa lagi? Itu sebabnya kita mesti galakkan anak muda untuk FASIH KENEGARAAN : perundangan, jentera politik, ekonomi, tek, dan kesenian perhubungan. Kalau tidak, BIARLAH ORANG LAIN TADBIR.

6. Nampak tak saya tidak memihak kepada ketuanan Melayu atau ketuanan pukul rata ... yang saya ingin sampaikan : dunia bukan tempat yang selamat. Keselamatan hanya dimenangi dengan kerja yang rumit.

Seriously like  - fuck this kindergarten country - I would rather be spending my time studying ML :P 

But you look at the numero uno country on earth, and it is no different. 

So you have no choice : political participation is social work.

notes from recovery of running form

Okok, I keep forgetting to jot down these two notes from running ... so before I go on about computer vision, I should do this. These are just operational recoveries of forms lost over the years, so it's a bit of a log of shame, albeit a somewhat technical one.

• 1. Yesterday's study of neural voltage was a good reminder to manage how much sensory data from each limb ( or part of the body ) hits conscious memory ... we consciously control this by activating feedback loops that contract muscles, sometimes colloquially referred to as neural tone. Maintaining a balanced proprioception of the entire body (rather than just legs, while running, for example), (a) allows for more / complete / constant kinesthetic data, as well as (b) simplifies coordination because you are applying similar signal quantities / data rates / effort / voltage / whatnot to all parts of the soma, rather than a discordant array of configurations to be adjusted in-flight.
• 2. Risk-off adjustments to vision memory management : allow one to focus less on the constant visual feed, and to think mainly about checkpoints or lap points along a route.

MNS activation and waking

Ok - back to what I was INITIALLY thinking about this morning : neuroendocrinology of transitions between sleep and waking.

PRE-READING

Observed :

• 1. at initial waking, low conscious data rate, low motor reaction times
• 2. hypoxia ( O2 constrained by beddings etc. ) associated increased wakefulness and stress
• 3. excessive heat ( due to insulation ) associated increased wakefulness and stress
• 4. intentional activation of motor units ( any muscle activity, but commonly seen as clenching, curling, or stretching in the morning ) associated with increased wakefulness but not necessarily stress

Inferred :

• 5. seems that (2,3) are via cortisol, so that makes sense
• 6. seems that (4) is doing something complicated, and I am now reading about neural signal voltages and frequencies

READING yields ...

• 7. "Recruitment" refers to the number of motor units activated. This increases from zero load, and "rate coding" only kicks in more after 80% of recruitment.
• 8. Recruitment of fibres by twitch-type* (Henneman Size Principle) :
• - slow, 1* : lowest activation threshold, "playful"
• - fast, 2a : mid-stage
• - fast, 2b : last-stage, largest motor units, "powerful" 
• 9. Motor neural "rate coding" frequencies :
• - 150 to 200 Hz in elite, trained athletes
• - 60 to 120 Hz in normal, initiation of heavily loaded movement
• - 30 to 60 Hz for sustained, heavy loads
• - 15 to 20 Hz under conditions of fatigue, to protect muscles
• 10a. The system adjacent to, but underlying the triple-network, is ARAS / the Ascending reticular activating system ( add pointer to RAS <- a candidate for consciousness functionality). Conscious MNS activity may originate here.
• 10b. Nerves in muscle spindles and Golgi tendon organs : send proprioceptive feedback back to the CNS, causing stimulation. 
• 10c. High-frequency rate-coding utilises monoaminergic (neurotransmitter) pathways : effects spill over into the cerebral cortex.
