I have to pronounce "egregore" on a podcast tomorrow
-
@sarahdoingthing How will you pluralize: egregore, egregoren egregorae, egregoræ, egregores, egregoreaux, the entities egregore?
@othercriteria @sarahdoingthing serious question: why not hivemind/hiveminds?
-
-
@KevinSimler@othercriteria fine but less precise - connotes mind-meld more than semi-parasitical entity to me at least -
@sarahdoingthing@KevinSimler@othercriteria yes, NTs have a desire to be ~10% hivemind, no such desire towards egrigores.

@KevinSimler@othercriteria@sarahdoingthing Egregore has more connotations (for me, YMMV) of autonomy & independence from bio substrate -

@KevinSimler (I'm happy you're asking me, but I think this is more of@sarahdoingthing/@St_Rev's shark, and I'm just remora-ing.) -
@othercriteria@KevinSimler@St_Rev that is a great expression I'm stealing that

@KevinSimler@othercriteria@sarahdoingthing "hive" is misleading, in that it implies more or less stable, more or less unitary aggregation. -
@KevinSimler@othercriteria@sarahdoingthing An individual mind may be ridden by multiple egregores--Jesus on Sunday, IRS on Monday. - 2 more replies
