Are those our only points of reference?

Methinks one ought to start by figuring out sets like:

- computational processes able to be communicated at all

- computational processes able to be bootstrapped using no more theory of mind than is required for effective operant conditioning

- computational processes that can be bootstrapped outside the purview of pre-existing mental habits

- computational processes that should never be launched in the mind of a living being

- pseudo-computational processes that are inherently misperceivable as computable

These days it comes in "precarious proletarian", "bourgeois bohemian" and "billionaire psychopath" editions (named after the D&D alignments). Which one did you pick when you created your account in the latest version? Did you know you could just nope?
