Thoughts

Today I learned that numbers in computing need enormous bit depth just to be precise; it instantly made me think about human cognition. Even the greatest genius who ever lived can’t come close to 32-bit resolution, let alone 128-bit. We are profoundly limited compared to the full complexity of reality. The universe is 13.8 billion years old, and no matter how old we become, we will always be a child by comparison. We should be more forgiving of others, and of ourselves. True understanding produces compassion; to truly know someone is to love them.
