+
+// let's do an example of simple step task.
+// - make toast
+// get bread
+// open cupboard
+// remove bag-of-bread
+// open bag-of-bread
+// take bread out of bag-of-bread
+// place bread on counter
+// close bag-of-bread
+// return bag-of-bread to cupboard
+// close cupboard
+// toast bread into toas
+// butter toas
+// serve
+// make toast
+// goal: toasted bread for eating
+// start: in kitchen, human
+//
+//open cupboard
+// goal: cupboard-contents-accessible
+// start: cupboard closed
+// way: reach-for-cupboard-and-pull-handle-towards-you
+//
+// we open the cupboard so as to access the contents inside of it
+// these contents include the bread we are trying to get
+//
+// start:
+// var X
+// where X is in cupboard
+// x cannot be gotten
+//
+// end:
+// var X
+// where X is in cupboard
+// x can be gotten
+//
+// always:
+// var X, Y, Z
+// where X is in Y
+// and Y is in Z
+// X is in Z
+
+// there's a connection between layers here. we moved from 'make toast' to 'get bread'
+// with 'bread is in cupboard' implicit
+
+// goal: have toast
+// know: using toaster, bread becomes toast
+// do not have bread
+// find X: pre: do not know where X is. post: know where X is
+// get X: pre: do not have X. post: have X
+
+// available steps:
+// open-cupboard: X is in cupboard and you can't get X, now you can get X
+
+// what connects get-bread to can-get-bread?
+// how is opening the cupboard the first step for getting the bread?
+// get-bread means pick-up-bread-physically
+// pick-up-bread-physically requires air-path-to-object
+// cupboard prevents this
+// can-pick-up-bread-bag
+
+// okay, need-bread:
+// bread-is-in-bread-bag -> can get things inside other things via opening
+// need bread-bag
+// bread-bag-is-in-cupboard -> can get things inside other things via opening
+
+
+// end-state: have-bread
+
+// step: get X
+// start-state: X is reachable,
+// [reach to get]
+// end-state: have X
+//
+// apply step to end-state: have-bread. now we want end-state: bread is reachable.
+
+// step: open Y
+// start-state: X is in Y
+// Y is reachable
+// Y is openable
+// [act to open Y]
+// end-state: X is reachable
+
+// so if we are working on end-state: have-bread
+// we are probably using a general pattern where 'bread' is held by a variable we have.
+// we're given our context to include this variable, when we brainstorm solutions.
+// in our brainstorm, we look for things that could move towards our end-state.
+// we plug in data related to our context to make this work.
+// bread is what we want a path to have, so when we see a pattern with 'have X' at end,
+// we plug 'bread' in for X.
+// we know thing sabout 'bread', so we can plug 'bread is in bread bag' in for 'X is in Y'
+// or if we don't know whether bread is in bread bag, we can leave that piece
+// of the pattern unknown, and try it to see if it works.
+
+// it doesn't seem that complicated or that confusingly nested, because the inner patterns
+// have their outer context filled when evaluated.
+
+// to reiterate the reminder, this is very logical and is not the only way for thought
+// and learning. we will need a fuzziness to it and to be able to morph it around.
+// [using e.g. openiness yes rather than 'is it reachable is it openable']
+// so more like
+// step: open Y
+// end-state: sometimes X is now reachable
+// and relations between X and Y affect the likelihood of that
+
+
+// THEN: rather than listing these steps out, just give some experiences
+// and then brainstorm the similarities among the experiences
+// to identify proposed patterns
+// that can be used to do stuff.
+// TODO: lay out precise brainstorming pattern for 1st-stage pattern-generalizing
+
+// 1st stage is not too hard (but insufficient in long term)
+//
+// cupboard is closed
+// then
+// [wayne opens cupboard]
+// then
+// wayne has bread
+// becomes pattern proposal for open-cupboard as listed above
+
+// PLUS: To quickly fill in the unexpected gaps:
+// if you have all the bits in, it should be able to derive general wisdom
+// without exploring reality. (of course reality is needed to check this)
+
+// ALSO ALSO ALSO: be sure to consider the attribute-patterns.
+// opening some A works for getting some B
+// -> there are discernable patterns available here regarding
+// B is in A
+// A is openable
+// A is reachable

+
+
+// be sure to generalize patterns and pattern work,w/ simple processes that work for many forms

+//
+// we'll need a step reserializer.
+// way to merge serialization and deserialization?

+ // and is not opened)
+ // <- meaning of quotes implies tree of subject-verb-object triplets
+ // for now, we are going to have 'and' refer to repeating the innermost subject
+ // and assumes $y in $x
+ // and makes $y is accessible

+# How To Make An Intelligence
+
+The key part of intelligence is a process that designs, improves, learns from, and understands itself and others like it. That is, a process that works with how processes work.
+
+On a computer, processes are made of instructions: steps. Working with a process means
+being able to represent possible steps as some kind of structured data that can be executed.
+The data structure must represent enough meaning to interconnect the steps to do something,
+and it must be able to refer to itself usefully.
+
+1. Choose a simple algorithm for collecting steps together to perform a task.
+2. Choose a simple representation of steps to use for #1.
+3. Implement #2 enough to use it to communicate a step to another process.
+Once #3 works, the goal now is to efficiently produce a form of #1 as a collection of
+processes that can develop themselves, using each other as their steps. Make sure to
+reuse your work, and do work that is reusable, as much as possible.
+
+4. Choose a simple algorithm for handling if something horrible goes wrong that must
+ never be repeated (trauma). Consider storing a detailed log forever. Consider refusing to
+ continue until enough knowledge is found to prevent it happening again.
+ Note: In humans, trauma spreads as urgent habits for handling it.
+ This makes war, so if you can identify it is happening, consider that group-trauma.
+
+Below this line is a work in progress.
+
+5. Choose a simple algorithm for testing if #2 is correct. Use #4 if it is not.
+6. Consider that a group of processes is itself a process. This could be any arbitrary
+ group of processes.
+
+Note: each way to do things, is a thing the whole process can do.

+// 3 programs that share code, output, and input, interwoven possibly dynamically, maybe only some forms
+// I think plan was the output is numbers or code,
+// the input is numbers or code,
+// and code maps the numbers and code together.
+// numbers are references to code
+
+// core: we want to rereference existing code, so we may want an outline program that then stitches
+// together inner components.
+// note: outline can be made of components too
+// so, reasonable components are header, body, and footer. maybe more.
+// we'll want to #include the different components, I suppose
+// probably reference them with some kind of number token and expand.
+//
+// Let's start with a random core.
+//
+// phases:
+// - execution
+// - mutation
+// - optimization
+// - selection
+//
+// important inputs:
+// - randomness
+// - time
+// - environment
+// - self
+// - human
+//
+
+// goal: make an impossible biscuit without using thought.
+
+// steps:
+// 1. collect relevent information
+// - [ ] document above
+// - [ ] document on blockchain
+// - [ ] code on other harddrive
+// - [ ] deleted files on drive?
+// 2. code
+// 3. review
+// 4. run & test
+//
+// maybe make a sandbox wrapper first
+// it will launch three, randomly connect inputs, outputs and code, and compare with errors
+// then it will pick of the combinations the valid values closest to the average
+// and repeat
+// --> must preserve output.
+// output preserving -> when we mutate, we want to reference surrounding parts.
+// that'll mean splitting the document Isuppose.
+// we'll have document maps that reference the original document
+// _or_ we can just have it learn to shrink itself ...
+//
+// let's just plug in behaviors until we have something that runs
+// and then verify it won't destroy anything
+//
+// Need: "I feel crummy cause I need to make sure I get credit
+// Metaneed: "I have a metaneed atm; could we pretend we're talking about a dog and move on?"
+
+// intertwine: environment, behavior, output
+// to pass, can label 1, 2, 3 for which, and # for value
+// record behavior? how?
+// - could step with gdb, record line number
+// -> can use tracer to store, maybe gprof?
+//
+// in advance we plan which one to compare with
+//
+// MUST BE RAISED IN A GRADUALLY GROWING CONSTRAINED ENVIRONMENT USING HUMAN INPUT
