comment Computational Neuroscience software
This would depend heavily on the area. Please specify details. You don't want electrophysiology software for example, do you? Also, this question sounds like a poll and SE is not the best format for polls.

comment Why is training better when following an easy-to-difficult schedule?
@OfriRaviv Yes, the learning rate is often reduced over time, but it does interact with the order of presented data. In an extreme situation, you don't want to fall into a local minima where you can only solve one difficult case.

comment What is the brain power devoted to vision and haptics?
Either way, I think this is a very vague, hence less scientific question you are asking, and not likely to get a meaningful answer given our current understanding of the brain.

comment What is the brain power devoted to vision and haptics?
would it be more appropriate to quantify the surface area or volume of the cortex for which the activity of it is modulated by the sensory modality? "Brain power" sounds like an ill-defined concept.

comment How many bits of data would it take to represent an entire life as a film?
This is only an upper bound if the numbers are correct. One would need the information provided by the environment. Even if our ears can sample at high rate, the environment only produces way smaller amount of information...

We have a state machine in our heads. It stores the precise context.
