The method of compressing data, in a word, is to replace the long bytes with shorter bytes.

It's not just a matter of shortening it casually, but it should also be able to be restored losslessly while compressing. Failure to do so is an unqualified compression method. And to do this, of course, it is necessary to have a reliable encryption and decryption method.

So, compression and encryption may seem unrelated, but they are essentially the same thing.

The difference is that the compressed envelope can only be used for storage purposes, and cannot be used directly from the compressed file. Therefore, it is possible to consider only the capacity issue and shorten the encrypted byte characters as much as possible.

However, as long as the decoding program is present, the encrypted file can be operated instantly, and it cannot only be put aside like a brick. Moreover, the purpose of encryption is to protect privacy, so with different encryption methods, it is very likely that the file size will not become smaller, but larger.

What Lin wants to do now is actually to combine the advantages of the first two to make the data recorded by the kaleidoscope magic smaller, but it must be accessible at any time to meet the needs of machine learning programs. On the contrary, it is the issue of privacy, which has become the least important part.

It is not difficult for Lin to design such a method, and he can even allocate some computing power to improve the way of data storage while running the kaleidoscope magic.

However, this kind of operation is running magic, and at the same time, it is necessary to improve the stored data, and of course, the encrypted file cannot be distorted. So in the beginning, the data capacity was not much reduced.

The first thing Lin had to do was to build an architecture that combined data encryption methods with kaleidoscope magic.

Only when the architecture is stable and the data can be restored without loss when decrypted, then it is necessary to carry out the next step of research. That is, how to compress the data as much as possible and save more brain capacity.

Although it is possible to squeeze out additional computing power to do such a thing, in the case of distraction and two things are not so easy, the already cold emotions in the bones become even colder.

Lin didn't even notice that his own memories were constantly being squeezed. Fifty years of life before and after the time crossing, as early as after his body and mind were strengthened several times, these memories became extremely clear.

The songs he has listened to, even if he has only heard them once, Lin can compose the music and write down the words in his memory. The books I have read, the newspapers that I have glanced at, even if they are only briefly swept in the field of vision of the eyes, can now be recalled without punctuation.

But those memories are fading. From someone's mind, completely and unsparingly. This is not to say that Lin's brain capacity has been occupied, but his thoughts have been at odds with reality from the beginning.

The brain is not a hard disk, there is no such thing as a magnetic area, and there is no rule about how many bytes can only be stored in a magnetic area. The brain is arguably the most sophisticated organ in the human body, integrating and managing all the functions of the human body, while also having its own unique functions.

And how much strength the brain can exert involves a term that is constantly mentioned by many science fiction genres - brain development.

However, contrary to what most people think, it is often said that only 10% of the human brain is functioning, and not only one-tenth of the entire brain is functioning.

Different parts of the brain manage different abilities. If only one-tenth is functioning, it can be considered that nine-tenths of the human body is paralyzed. This certainly doesn't make sense.

The brain is only 10% functioning in the way the explanation should be understood as the engine of a car and a locomotive. Once the locomotive is started, of course, the engine will start running, but the speed will only remain idling at idle.

The engine in this state is, of course, all the parts working, not just one-tenth of the parts. As much oil is fed into the engine, you can increase the revs and make more horsepower until the revs reach the engine's limit.

This is the truth of brain development, and it is also the reason why everyone's intelligence is high and low.

It's like every normal person has arms, but different people have different strengths; People who have been trained will also have more strength than those who have not exercised. Everyone's muscles are 100% functional, but different people's muscles can exert different upper limits.

In the memory area, the process of improving the efficiency of the brain is not without cost. This is not a 1T hard disk that will be automatically upgraded to a 2T or 3T hard disk without loss when it is approaching the storage limit.

Changing hard disks and moving data requires manual hands and time. When it comes to the brain, how can it be easy to let someone upgrade automatically.

It's just something that has been forgotten, a memory that someone doesn't think is important to themselves.

These memories that should have been sent to the depths of the subconscious, locked up, and ignored have returned to the surface, and the parts that can be recalled at any time, even if they return to the surface, do not mean that their importance has increased.

In the process of upgrading the performance of someone's brain, it also comes with removing those things that are not important, freeing up more capacity to store new things. This has been done in tandem with improvements in storage capacity.

It can be said that on the issue of brain capacity, Lin is working on many aspects at the same time. It's just that not everything is under control, some are done actively, and some are passive. In general, it is all in a good direction.

As for those forgotten memories, to be honest, even if someone knew that this was happening, they wouldn't necessarily care, or even intervene to stop it.

As long as not all of them are erased, forgetting some of them is nothing. In a normal person's life, who would remember clearly how old they were and still wetting the bed.

It's normal to forget, and it's abnormal to forget. Unless it's someone else who wets the bed today, it's worth remembering for a lifetime, and it's used to laugh at others from time to time.

And those memories that are important to themselves will also be forgotten? In fact, just by distinguishing the important from the unimportant in my own mind, I have already set the order in which these memories should be deleted.

Nothing happens in the human body is random. Every situation must have its cause and effect. It's like a disease, either it is exposed to bacteria and viruses, or it has a genetic birth defect, or it is some chemicals and body hormones that stimulate cell abnormalities.

So there is no need to worry about whether those important and precious memories will be inadvertently erased in this brain upgrade. As long as you think it's important, those memories will be saved until your past is completely erased.

But that doesn't mean you can have the freedom to let things unfold. Lin also took this opportunity to plan and organize his own memories. The memory palace method is one of the most well-known.

Specifically, it is to imagine one's consciousness as a space that one is most familiar with, such as one's own room, or one's home for a long time. Then associate each familiar action with a memory, such as what a cup of coffee in the morning represents.

Further development is the so-called memory library method. After combing through your own memories, you can arrange them on the shelves of different titles.

People who can do these things must have a certain level of logic, relevance and reasoning in order to do it. But this kind of thing can be trained, and it doesn't exactly eat talent.

And when it comes to Lin's current skills, it is easy to do these combing work. Didn't do it before, just didn't have to. Doing it now, in addition to having needs, is also to deal with things together so that the results can be more satisfying.

Otherwise, just by compressing the results of the kaleidoscope magic, it should be possible to achieve the effect that someone wants, and it is not necessary to work on their own memory. But since the purpose is to expand one's brain capacity, there is no reason to organize one part and let the other part be scattered.

Working on brain capacity is far less difficult than you thought at first.

Maybe it's because someone's current body has long been out of the realm of ordinary people, and their minds and souls have also grown greatly with the help of the sub-plane tower. So as long as you think about how to use your body, then the result is as natural as it comes.

Therefore, the progress of data compression quickly moved on to the issue of how to compress the data into a smaller capacity.

But after all, the main purpose is not compression, and the reduced capacity of the data must also be able to be used immediately. In the two conflicting issues of efficiency and compression, how to strike a moderate balance has become someone's latest problem.

But when the compression scale oscillates to the decimal point for the sake of efficiency, Lin's main attention is drawn to what the other side is doing.

When the performance of kaleidoscope magic is really like the kaleidoscope I saw when I was a child, so strange and gorgeous, so colorful. Lin found that these color changes were not meaningless.

It's like I had the idea for this subject at the beginning, to design a language based on color.

Language, as a means of communication between people, must carry 'meaning' behind it.

This meaning may be artificially given, such as the sun and the moon. It may also be a flat and straightforward feeling, such as cool, the wind blowing.

The science of color psychology is quite vague in its explanation of each color. Although a definition is given, the scope of the definition is very broad and not as clear as the referential nature of normal language is not so misleading.

However, when the colors are many and fine, and the changes are like a kaleidoscope with unique rules, Lin inexplicably feels that the kaleidoscope magic wants to express something. And the things I want to express also have a corresponding relationship with the strange things that are wrapped, as if they are in a dialogue.

To this extent, the interaction between the kaleidoscope magic and the monster is no longer just a party to induce, one side to react, and to move in a certain direction together. Behind the scenes, there is a deeper meaning being communicated.

Lin simply stopped the computing power that had not made much progress on the subject of storage capacity, and explored what the kaleidoscope magic was talking to the monster.

I want to find out the answer to this question because Lin thought of a sentence: man is the law of the earth, the earth is the law of the sky, the heaven is the law of the Tao, and the Tao is the law of nature.

Perhaps the truth that cannot be proclaimed is closer to the true natural avenue.
