      The oddest thing about my personal sense of time is that while I have no concept of what day its, or how old I am. I can memorize a rough sense of when an historical event happened in the past; I was really good at history class. What mental facility was I using to do that?

      Something odd struck me while learning about Feynman. He seemed to 'forget' his wife was dead, and used the tradition he had of writing her letters as a way to 'remember'. This concept is burned into my mind.https://twitter.com/ultimape/status/816570332878405632 …

      I think part of Feynman's particular genius was his awareness of how his own mind works compared to others. Perhaps a result of his curiosity directing his thinking inward. He found that people read differently. (and can perhaps respec?)https://twitter.com/ultimape/status/982874149042507776 …

      Found a vid by Feynman where he breaks down that assumption and describes the process of subvocalization thru language/music vs visual-spatial processing. It seems I don't think of code w/ language, but visual-spatially. Might be why I can multitask that. https://twitter.com/ultimape/status/982584312339009537 …

      I suspect perhaps we have different circuits in the brain for some of this. Encode time differently than space. Perhaps in same way that some can be directional impaired (left-right vs compass), or have trouble with faces. https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/sense-of-direction-innate/ …https://twitter.com/simpolism/status/1045391857994346498 …

      Assuming everyone is same, or uses the same strategies to encode various quale I think is a larger failures of most of western thought. Feynman was undoing that as side-effect of aggressive doubt in experts & interacting dominate psych models at the time.

      I don't think those dominate models have gone away. For the most part, differences in thinking and meaning making are always framed as disabilities.https://twitter.com/ultimape/status/790059157466611712 …

      5/ Yet we have a class of human, "Synesthetes" who experience meaning differently, but this is largely considered benign and normal.

      It is too expensive to run a factory production line (school) when all the raw materials (children) you're building with are different.

      I wonder what Feynman would say about the bouba/kiki effect.

      When you wonder why I disagree with Chomsky and Pinker on language? It's literally because I'm autistic and as such have a fundamentally different experience of something they often cite on language & meaning making. https://books.google.com/books?id=4N1JDwAAQBAJ&lpg=PT36&ots=tYjdn_iiBg&dq=%22cuppiness%22%20socrates&pg=PT36#v=onepage&q=%22cuppiness%22&f=false …pic.twitter.com/rkcDJnk2Fa

      Why? Less than 2.5% of kids have autism in ways that affects their verbal performance.

          I don't think it's a verbal performance thing, I think its a socially mediated phenomena acting on similar pathways as disgust response and low receptivity to emotional aspects of language.

          The social dimension is not perceptual in any way, it is entirely a dimension of multilevel inference. If multilevel inference is impaired, then social learning and social self expression will also be impaired.
