custom multiple flavors of indirect addressing

like the types of meta

connection to the RDF verb/hypergraphs?

subsume the two fundamental hypergraph gets (normal and reified) into one operation with multiple flavors?

(lack of) call stacks in the brain; what do we have instead?

are call stacks just an abstraction to make it easier to write stuff down? yes, when they are used in a lambda-calculus-y (with no continuations) way; but no, when 'metaprogrammy' stuff like 'break' within a while loop is used, or when 'return' is used in more than one place in the fn, or when exceptions are used for non-exceptional control flow; in these cases, they are usually being used to inject complex sequential/imperative control flow without writing it out explicitly

what does the brain have instead of call stacks? well, for ordinary (lambda-calc-y) use, it just has substructure of neurons... but perhaps the real answer is dataflow variables (labeled lines), since the 'caller' isn't sitting around waiting for the 'callee' to return, it just continues on with the computation with the current (old) value

so i guess parts of the paradigm of brainlike computation are:
