It’s Simple but Deceivingly Clever — Every neural system in every animal finds clever ways to accomplish one feat. And that one computational feat is all you need to know to see completely how your brain works. It is so basic and fundamental that it is hard to talk about because it is so obvious. But…

The Study of Lies — The Latin word for lie is mendacio. In English that old word still exists in the word “mendacity” and it floats about in other languages too, like Spanish. The study of lies might naturally be called Mendaciology. Imagine a world with a course, if not a degree, in Mendaciology. The…

The science of lies is a cognitive science. René Descartes (1596–1650 AD) of Cartesian Coordinates fame, e.g. “(x,y)”, was the father of cognitive science. Seeking the nature of truth, he said “I think therefore I am.” …

Believe it or not there is a science of lies. The science basically says we all lie all the time to someone. Brains just don't work the way you might suppose. Here is what we know by the science you can confirm for yourself: Fiat Lies are Genocide on the Human Race The Internet Court of Liesmedium.com Big lies work for politicians because…

Robert Thibadeau, Ph.D. November 30, 1993 — I never thought I would see the day When books looked superfluous. I saw, the day before yesterday, The world. I leapt about, from Japan, to Here, to Australia To Finland, To Italy…

You are an idiot. I am a scientist. Your version of history is rather stupid. We never had the hardware we needed, and when we got it, it worked. Proof, I did this work and I wrote this in 1980-3: https://link.springer.com/article/10.3758/BF03203564 Read it and see if I wasn't right. You…

In my version of reality, the science must account for how pundit brains compute as well as scientist brains compute. You neglect the fact that in math (or logic) the assumptions are not tested for truth. They are by definition assumed true. See Descartes. In computation explanations you can have…

I chose experimental psychology over physics (back in 1969) because computation tells truth better than math. In math, or logic, you have the problem of the context, in computation the context can be perfectly included. And in brain computation you are seeing how the brain (any brain) interprets and shapes…

Courtesy Gutenberg THE TELL-TALE HEART. True! — nervous — very, very dreadfully nervous I had been and am; but why will you say that I am mad? The disease had sharpened my senses — not destroyed — not dulled them. Above all was the sense of hearing acute. I heard all things in…
