Star Empire

Blazing sun in the void.

"Set up a testing station? Check the interaction and intensity of the wind farm with other physical institutions and void structures? Has the testing equipment been repaired and completed? Oh, that's all fine, I approve."

"The operating rules of the wind field? I'm afraid I can't give you any information at the moment - I'm not sure whether the current Sun Star Corona will still operate according to the previous rules after being attacked, and you should be able to filter the old rules from the database. Got it. Go ahead, I can’t answer these questions directly.”

…

"Your Majesty, can we currently allow us to detect high-risk environments such as deep structures and bridge structures in the dead tide field?"

"It's not prohibited, but as an individual in the empire, I don't really support the detection of this type of structure at the moment. The reason is obvious - our current foundation is not enough."

The Void Fierce Sun seems to be in peace, but more sophisticated detection methods can erase the tranquility shrouded in violence. The Void Fierce Sun is still violently active and is still spewing a huge flow of information into the void.

The blazing sun still protects the empire.

But after all, this has weakened too much.

"The current empire is in a period of weakness, the technical system is still very imperfect, and many tests have yet to produce results. For us, the void is becoming more dangerous than before, and you need to pay attention."

"In addition, I do not prohibit you from studying me or studying the Death Tide, but I need to explain that there will most likely be a huge Death Tide Gate at the core of "Fire Sun" itself. You must Pay more attention. And when studying the Death Tide... If I remember correctly, Vidoville was once targeted by the fleet he commanded in an environment shrouded in pollution from the Death Tide. The danger of the Death Tide is evident."

"... Understand, we will hold off on research in such high-risk areas until we have sufficiently complete technology and a strong enough foundation."

"Well, I would like to add here that from the attitude of a person who has been responsible for some research projects - do as comprehensive an investigation as possible before doing the research, at least as comprehensive an investigation as you can, and also do as much research as possible. Consider possible connections and support links with other departments to ensure everything is flowing smoothly.”

"clear."

The meaning has been conveyed, and there is no need to continue calibrating the line maintaining this communication for the time being. Weisruifan was about to stop this thought process, and just when the "line" was about to be completely extinguished, some information was transmitted from that direction again:

"Your Majesty, during my current research, I met some people, and the topics between us are highly overlapping. After further cooperation, we found that all of each other's interests were highly matched or even overlapped, so we further determined a new relationship... …”

…

It’s not complicated and deserves blessings.

Judging from this or these things alone, this should represent a good trend as a whole - individuals who have common interests and can appreciate each other spontaneously combine with each other to establish further relationships when the time is right. Of course it's good.

But these trends will also cause many, many problems that may involve a very broad scope, and the time and level involved will be deeper.

First of all, after the emergence of more similar individual groups, or you can use that ancient word, similar to the "family" unit, will the emergence of these small units themselves violate or conflict with the grand interests of the empire itself, and how should these possible collisions be coordinated? The contradiction?

After all, it's not just puppets that make up the empire now. As a super-individual, the empire certainly has the right to require individuals to dedicate themselves, but this should not be endless without exchange.

And to be more specific - how should "family" be determined in detail? Should there be more judgment and logical weighing? This should be combined arbitrarily with each other according to the hobbies and environments of all individuals, without too many restrictions, and some regulations should be made as early as possible. Just like the main axis of time, we can also find an absolute one from the endless relativities that can be used as A ruler to measure the baseline of what is right and wrong now?

And further - if these "families" are torn apart for one reason or another, should they make amends as appropriate and do follow-up work to avoid such situations? And to what level should these follow-up work be carried out?

If the "offspring" can continue to grow their own team and survive, how will those new offspring be added to the authority network and related structure of the entire empire?

Perhaps many of these details can gradually become widely accepted as time goes by, and details and divisions may be integrated. However, the compilation of the imperial theme has proved that these dynamic development processes are bound to have problems of one kind or another - if you blindly rely on natural adjustments, or just declare out of thin air how to do better without giving more specific instructions... then some of them The problem may always be in contradiction and division, and that is quite likely to be more acute than intervention and adjustment.

For all empty words to become great, they need countless details to fill them. This is no exception.

And these contents are only closely surrounding this theme. And if you want to expand their possible coverage and scope of influence, then this scope can be expanded too much.

For example, the empire needs to clarify the details and definitions of the so-called aggregation and dispersion between families and people. Some vague contents may not have any impact on ordinary days, but once encountering a situation, the empire needs to have well-documented records. As for the combination patterns between people, and the various problems that may arise in the subsequent "family structure", the empire also needs to guide - and how to guide, how to carry out these activities and make them widely established, or whether these contents will follow the As time goes by, we continue to integrate and simplify the underlying information that constitutes the basic structure of life... then there will be more possibilities and detailed issues.

The empire needs to give a relatively correct direction and plan, and countless departments and individuals within the empire also need to give or have a correct attitude towards the direction and plan - in the void, the final destination of the same goal through different paths may be "omniscience and omnipotence".

Before that, no matter how different paths lead to the same goal, errors may always be reflected in large and small parts. If you cannot prepare a corresponding plan, as well as the attitude and thinking tools required to understand the plan, then everything may not calm down over time, but may be self-defeating.

"...It seems that for a long time, the Human Resources and Human Resources Department will have to work overtime to deal with many, many issues." After a short silence, Wei Ruifan silently brought his attention back to what he needed. Facing the reality.

The core territory of the empire, the surface of the blazing sun is vast and boundless.

Some questions are worth thinking about again even if they have been thought about many times, such as reality?

There is no doubt that reality, or more accurately, reality with a more specific scope, is the reality recognized and accepted by the empire, and the empire itself has always made countless gestures in "reality" that belong to itself, but For a long time, the entire empire did not seem to be entangled in the choice of reality model and existence attributes or to go to war-maybe it was not necessary, or maybe it was not the right time for the current empire.

But now... there's nothing wrong with this. After recalling the most intense sensory collision he had ever had, Weisruifan breathed a sigh of relief.

For the current empire, even if the technology and foundation have been greatly weakened, the entire empire still maintains a considerable height - the life of the empire has its own way of perception and perception, and also has its own life instinct.

The existence of these instincts means that even if the Empire needs to face a new world, it does not need to change too much - the basis of perception is close to the original, and the Empire's life can rely on its own body to obtain the information it needs from other world structures.

Conventional operational status awareness is simpler. The outside world is complex and diverse, but the life of the empire has the ability to integrate them by relying on its own silent calculation. This kind of "perception instinct" itself is not too backward, and it does not need drastic transformation at present.

As for the main life of the empire, the addition of field life and field broadcast facilities a long time ago has made the empire network almost ubiquitous and can be called and operated at will within a wide range that can cover daily needs - it can be uploaded or uploaded at any time. Download entities can access the demand range at any time and obtain resources from the network in any way, including but not limited to activating interactive windows at will, applying for computing processes and even transferring information within a certain range. Creating things casually has become commonplace, even effortlessly.

And if you consider daily life and residence...well, they are needs from ancient times, and their vocabulary has become archaic to a certain extent, but it should be said that it is equally meaningful-the imperial life has the ability to operate infinitely, but looking at it now , these beings should be given some opportunities and space to develop freely, and corresponding needs will naturally appear...exist on the Internet? Self-protection facility? Or is it a fixed giant building or some other way of existence...?

"Pay attention, but don't take care of everything." Wei Ruifan nodded.

After all, for reality, it still depends on everyone's choice - what is reasonable derived from theory may not always be universal, and many experiences in reality may seem a bit ethereal, but they may come from a deeper source of structure, or they may It's just another choice... There's nothing wrong with that, just like the current empire. In fact, there are countless structures that are more efficient in different aspects that can replace the current imperial reality baseline, but at present, the empire may not directly replace them all in the future.

People are still people, battleships are still battleships, and the environment is still the environment. The third-order sight is still based on time and space, measuring its changes... This may not change too much. There may not be much reason for this. After all, content that is more efficient and closer to theory should be promoted, and there is no reason to get stuck.

"Hmm... maybe it's because of the bottom line?" At that time, perhaps this was indeed a trend of drastic change...

That era has passed, and it may be because of some attitude towards sticking to the bottom line that the empire still maintains its current appearance. As for whether this persistence is meaningful, or whether it may even come from the spontaneous will of the empire... Now it seems that it may not be found out. If there really is such a person, then it may not worry about being seen and perceived. Or, it might not make that much sense at all...

"There's not much need... huh?"

In the void, the fleet that was originally diverging and spreading outward began to turn and regroup. The stellar wind field is an extension of his own perception, and the wakes left by countless warships turning in the void are clear and distinguishable to him.

It should be said that it is precisely these things that seem to be there or not, and their existence is so thin that they are almost impossible to measure. A large number of their structures are still needed to be used and cannot be accurately quantified.

The role of these structures in the void should be to allow actual existences to exchange information with each other and establish similar and different "reference systems" for each other. Only when these reference systems exist can there be connections between the worlds, and the various rules built based on these connections will finally be feasible.

If there is no connection, then there is no need or possibility to measure two existences that have no connection at all, even if they are exactly the same.

All kinds of things are happening in the huge empire every moment, from the new lives and equipment coming off the production line to the completion of the transformation of the new world, new problems finally being answered, new technological recovery and new major difficulties. Solution... There are too many of them, and it is far from being able to care about them all from one or some perspectives.

If Weisrifan really wanted to, she might be able to see everything in the entire empire at all times, but there is no point in doing so, and for now, the parts that can be seen and described based on the current standards are just individual aspects— —These sides can be the projection of all history, the projection of all future, the projection of all details and the projection of huge systems...

They are not comprehensive, and what is relatively more important is that they are distributed throughout the empire. Whether it is seeing or doing, the corresponding subjects and objects are not themselves.

Most of those aspects should be said not to belong to me.

…

"Has your research topic been solved?"

"In terms of stages, it has indeed been solved. But if you consider the overall macro... No, it is still far behind, and it is even a little behind the progress we had estimated. We have gone wrong for a while, or at least we have gone astray. .”

"Now, um... it's just a temporary break. It currently shows that the response speed of some individuals has dropped a bit, so some parts, including me, need to rest for a while, and there are other individuals who have just completed their rotation. At present, our overall efficiency It hasn’t dropped too much, this part should be sorted out and handed over to the Human Resources and Human Resources Department, it should be useful.”

"Ardaka, 10-2-13-hu3477, at this stage, the messages delivered by you personally and by the two departments are too loose, and some of the contents are overlapping and ambiguous. The content has been recorded, but the delivery format needs to be further changed. Delivery frequency, new proposed structure has been given..."

"New format. During this period, other ministries are requesting new formats, and each ministry has different requirements from each other..." Faced with this somewhat abrupt feedback, Aldaka chose to accept it, and then What came next was helplessness - "I am a minister, but I am only a minister. I can only be responsible for this part of the field that I am currently responsible for. Other fields... a lot of content I have said does not count..."

"Notice from the Emperor's Council - the highest authority meeting process in all regions has been launched. Recently, various ministries/research groups have generally reported that due to the recent increase in the number of topics and research projects, the density of interaction between ministries has increased, but due to the partial existence between ministries" "Habitual" differences and differences in standard formats have caused problems such as inconvenience in communication between departments and a decrease in the efficiency of information transmission. Here, the Emperor's Council decided to add an integration and covariance department to the empire, and the department was handed over to the Twelve Sky Districts as a whole for integration and coordination. operations; adding a unified planning department of meaning and rules that will operate across the district structure."

"This is a preliminary plan. All persons in charge are asked to sort out the key meaning segments and information transmission formats commonly used in their departments. The relevant transmission time will be determined soon. All individuals with driving management authority are requested to summarize and report in a timely manner..."

"...The reaction speed is already fast. After all, this is less than a stage." Faced with the new "notice", the two imperial ministers who had been practicing countless information nodes fell silent - just for Among the countless connections, it is the "this line" formed by the two of them.

"...Speaking of which, Aldaka, you said you have taken a long detour? What's going on? If I remember correctly, the soul corresponding field you are responsible for... This should be regarded as a very deep and well-researched field. It’s a mature field.”

"Previously, more of it was empirical research and applied research... In fact, the past definition of soul can cover a very broad body content. From memory and consciousness, all the way to the self-consistent maintenance of information in the body, and even all information aggregates Group... They all count as souls. And for a lot of content, there are situations where we know its essence but don’t know how to use it. Even when we first studied how to determine the scope of confirming [soul structure] in practice, many contents even I had to use some very old information..."

"So, how did you solve this problem in the end?"

"Four chiefs and seventeen senior experts took the lead in forming five groups with different viewpoints, and then they divided into millions of judgment logic groups to screen all the parts we considered, and the whole department focused on this part. , quadrillions of people, including computing nodes, have been sifting through all the details and scanning images for hundreds of years.”

"Finally, we locked on a projection that appeared in the interval where the "real strength" of the information is about ninety. That projection can be considered as the projection of our soul - its existence is attached to our current real body and Virtual information affects it, but it itself is just a projection. It is not all the structures that constitute the soul. However, the existence or absence of that projection... can reveal quite accurately and intuitively the existence of the "soul" as we know it, in a relatively narrow sense. Up."

"... Projection? This is equivalent to... using a sub-phase superimposed on our current reality to prove whether the soul structure is complete or not?" At this point, hu3477 couldn't help but feel a little strange, "It needs to be proved in this way. ?"

"It's not proven in this way, but we currently need a ruler - a ruler that can distinguish between basic mechanisms and applications. At least from this perspective, this ruler is the most accurate one we can find at the moment. of the ruler.”

"The existence of this projection may have a strong symbolic meaning, or it may actually be a concrete product of an emergent phenomenon. This part may require people from the Emergent Phenomenon Department to deal with it... If the relationship can be clarified , we may be able to use this to create soulless individuals that are no different from ordinary life or perform other related operations... and the existence of that projection also allows us to directly check whether our practical application is in place..."

"I think that, for now, it should be beneficial to us to have such an objective reference structure, while other parts... are subject to this relatively stable ruler result on the one hand, and many other aspects are subject to the equipment. .”

"...But this ruler may not necessarily be stable."

"Indeed, if I remember correctly, our various units have carried out many standard reference replacements while they were still in operation... At present, this should be a temporary alternative ruler rather than a defining truth."

"Such a huge amount of data checking...thank you for your hard work."

"The hard work belongs to everyone in the entire department, not just me. Speaking of this, we also found that the current equipment is more suitable for precise inspection and detailed inspection, but for emergence... The emergence phenomenon itself should be said to be commonplace, but it contains It is true that some chaos attributes are difficult to calculate in detail with current technology - this section should suggest other sections to promote related research... What about you? I remember that you seem to have taken on quite a few large projects."

"From a scale perspective... it should be said that the project volume is larger than yours, but in terms of the priority tree of the entire empire, our projects are relatively far behind, and we may not necessarily achieve strong results. But the pertinence and practical application is probably more conventional – our job is to build all kinds of homes.”

"House? Urban structure?" As soon as the meaning was conveyed, Aldaka already understood why there were so many buildings of various shapes throughout the empire appearing all over the world and even in the void.

"Yes... about the issue of residence. At present, many beings and puppets do not need these "soft logistics", but as time expands and the empire itself becomes more active, the needs for these aspects may increase. Increase. And right now, building appropriate and efficient urban structures and other residential structures... is our task.”

"What's the main difficulty?"

"Coordination between technology, efficiency, convenience, stability and security." hu3477's consciousness showed a trace of helplessness, "Because they themselves require us to design, process and revise everything ourselves. We need to work with the security department and the senior area officials who pay attention to this direction. The rulers are in constant communication and interaction. And this itself is actually not absolutely necessary - just like our bodies now, the encapsulated shell is like this. But we don't necessarily need that shell, and similarly, we don't necessarily need it. Really need this.”

"But they must be meaningful - and they will be in the future, and the Empire encourages us to learn to live in a way that the work of all sectors is equally important."

"Thanks."

"If you count the time."

"Huh? Alkada, what's wrong?"

"The next expedition should not be far away, right?"
