Way Too Much Information
meta-
adj.,pref. [from analytic philosophy] One level of description up. A metasyntactic variable is a variable in notation used to describe syntax, and meta-language is language used to describe language. This is difficult to explain briefly, but much hacker humor turns on deliberate confusion between meta-levels.
-valent
suff. Having a specified valence or valences.
valence
1. Chemistry. The combining capacity of an atom or radical, determined by the number of electrons that it will lose, add, or share when it reacts with other atoms.
2. The ability of a substance to interact with another or to produce an effect.
3. Psychology. The degree of attraction or aversion that an individual feels toward a specific object or event.
4. Linguistics. The number of arguments that a lexical item, especially a verb, can combine with to make a syntactically well-formed sentence, often along with a description of the categories of those constituents.
5. The capacity of something to unite, react, or interact with something else.
an extropic state
of contemplating supersymmetric psychosocial symphonies of
human suffering, surmounting, senescence, and survival through
an incomprehensibly vast and escalating expansion of the extropian multiverse. speculative spelunking through assymetric archipelagos of mechapsychogenetic transhuman permutation, pain and poise, pretense and probity, prevarication and promise.-
