If someone that has opencog build would just push it into a vm image or
a juju charm (ubuntu) or whatever that would save a lot of hassle.
Especially if it was one of the common image types so it could be loaded
on most any linux and in most any cloud. So can someone maybe fix up
its build script to automatically produce one of those if they haven't
already?

Yeah... following the build instructions for OpenCog on Ubuntu works
fairly robustly. On other Linux versions it may require some
fiddling. If you really care you can install an Ubuntu VM, right?
But this sort of thing is pretty common among open source Linux
software, it's not really to do with specific novel OpenCog code but
rather with various external dependencies that the code has, because
of relying on various existing code libraries...
About nested realities, ContextLink and HypotheticalLink would be the
mechanisms used in PLN semantics for this sort of representation....
The current PLN implementation does not support these robustly yet,
but the logic is worked out on paper...

probably the wrong list to rant about OpenCog, unless you were
edited off the OC group like my rants usually are :) Anyway, they
could start with better Ubuntu support, right now it is a bit
random building and running the stuff, depending on which minor
version of a package or another you have. I can't see the purpose
of building general intelligence with gcc version 3.5.2.4 *only*,
just like I don't see why general intelligence should be build
with "advanced" use of a bewildering mix of software tools. I am
all for integration across toolkits and systems but they should be
at least half-understandable and half portable.
Meanwhile, it would help me immensely if someone could explain how
nested realities are represented in OpenCog, for example me
talking about Harry Potter's first encounter with
magical/invisible train platforms. Disclaimer: I have long ago
asserted that it is such spontaneous hierarchies of thought,
speech and reality that lie at the core of our cognitive
abilities, and we enter such minute and uncharted regions of
problem space that break purely statistical tools.

The thing really seemed to hump Ubuntu and seemed to be
much more
intimate with the system as a whole than any piece of
software should be.
If you honestly want to support linux, just be compatible
with the
goddamned standard!
