Very well Krassimir, thank you.

Just a little remark:
</div>
<div dir="auto">
<br>
</div>
<div dir="auto">
The tautometric concept of information is
</div>
<div dir="auto">
1. Not two permutations combined but permutations combined with partitions;
</div>
<div dir="auto">
2. Show me any of the many competing definitions of information that is based (rooted) in natural numbers;
</div>
<div dir="auto">
3. Of course one can interpret patterns of natural numbers in many ways : the patterns of natural numbers are the factual reality, and the verbal notes different people assign to the same pattern are a multitude that comes from the people being different, not from the fact that the natural numbers are such as they are.
</div>
<div dir="auto">
<br>
</div>
<div dir="auto">
Other people have also beautiful daughters and defitions, but this here tautometric daughter is not only as beautiful as all the others, but she has the advantage of being a direct descendant of the Mother of All Tautologies, her most exalted majesty of a+b=c, and this is a pedigree that is unique to her.
</div>
<div dir="auto">
<br>
</div>
<div dir="auto">
I am extremely relaxed with regard to the competition in the business of giving a good definition of information. Like Mendel knew that he says something never heard before and that what he says is true and there is no way anyone could say anything that would be truer.

<font size="4">Dear Kate and Karl,<br>In his monograph, Mark Burgin reminded the story of the elephant and the blind men who study it. This also applies to the many definitions of the term "information". Each studies a separate element of the whole, and would probably end up saying like the elder of the blind, the elephant is unknowable!<br>If one tries to understand all the definitions and theories of information, one will be disappointed. Simply because many of the definitions are aphorisms to get around the problem. Such as "It's from bit", "A difference that makes a difference", etc.<br>Actually, your specialty is very close to reality, I mean "mental models" or the meaning a subject assigns to data, incorporating it into a given mental model.<br>What Karl defines as information is a rather complex construction in which two mental models (two permutations) are incorporated into a new mental model of comparison. The result of this comparison, i.e. how much the two models differ (the vector from one to the other) is "information" according to Karl.<br>But these are only one kind of mental models. You probably know many others. And they are all information! Emotional models are no exception to the general rule. Because emotions also have a certain meaning.<br>Perhaps, in your circles, you use the term "gestalt" instead of mental model, which is the same thing.<br>I hope I was useful to you.<br>With respect,<br>Krassimir</font>

<br>Subject: [Fis] Information as Sequencing and Difference
<br>
<div>
Dear Karl (et al),
<div>
As one who often receives the fish eyes when trying to communicate such a divergent view of emotion, I can feel your frustration. But rest assured that my claim to want to understand information is legitimate. Indeed, I have spent a good deal of time researching everyone’s backstories to better understand the models on offer. Yours in particular (given the generous depth and quality of your responses), and I conducted the book sorting experiment for the third time yesterday just in case I was missing something.
</div>
<div>
<br>
</div>
<div>
You have helped me realize the importance of permutational sorting and sequencing in of process of The Tao, with “sequencing” occurring as the timeless Domain 0 counterpart of the entropic Arrow of Time in Domain 1. You have also emphasized the foundational goal in AI engineering of minimizing the difference between between prediction (expected) and actual (observed) outcomes. I find these insights central to the hows and whys of living systems with emotional sentience - which are far more than prediction machines. (Some of my thoughts on this:
<a href="https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S0079610715001169__;!!D9dNQwwGXtA!XicUWaWWlWRriTTN21FGTH0xHCATELzDq-ukGcyXyKAjhe_9IdCkHdL4a3yP_0JVi0874AOsVjtDHnbxkw$" rel="noreferrer">https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S0079610715001169</a> ) and here:

I also find your offerings consonant with the work of Don Hoffman and Mike Levin, particularly in terms of “decorative permutations” which link repetition and symmetry with visual aesthetics.

</div>
<div>
Hoffman offers a "Markovian Dynamics of Consciousness" based upon the maths of decorative permutations that comes close to the evaluative and identity components of my Tao story, enhanced by Levin’s stuff on “the self". There’s a great conversation here between them here:

So once again, I thank you, and hope to be corrected if I’ve misrepresented your wisdom in any way. Oh, as and for getting pictures on FIS? Pedro had to “twinkle them” to make that happen. This is why I only did that once, to ease any additional burden. But indeed, pictures speak volumes.

Lovely.

You happen to be the first adept of the cult of the 12 books.
</div>
<div dir="auto">
Do tell for the record, your experiment with 12 random objects, how many cycles have been found in your setup?
</div>
<div dir="auto">
<br>
</div>
<div dir="auto">
Would you like to get a chaperone (like Vergil for Dante) as you discover the world of periodic arithmetic? Not that I would be an official explainer on matters related to place, amount, prediction, types of matches between places and amounts, but the years of playing with order cause me to believe that my comments on the matter can save efforts in inventing (recognition of) simple but useful patterns found in the process of ordering and keeping it in order.
</div>
<div dir="auto">

If so, you can learn really basic and fundamental techniques fast, and don't have to do trial and error detours that this person already has investigated.
</div>
<div dir="auto">

So, how many cycles, which lengths?
