The Dimensions of The Pack Response
(Psychology) 1 – as to any ‘beginning’ to the universe, the central question is whether time has any meaning at the extremes. We simply do not know the answer. But we know enough to know, that we do not know the answer. Ergo, any argument to ad-infinitum is no more likely than any argument to…
Peterson is a Only a Third (Meaning via literature). The Rest is Doolittle (Law), and Taleb (Measurement)
William Butchman (et all), Peterson’s claim is where he’s going wrong: trying to justify his priors. Yes, we can imagine and experience the world consisting of various combinations of objects, properties, relations, transformations, and values. Yes we can develop our own mental models out of those arrangements (philosophies). Yes we can seek or create an…
Series: Models of Decidability … And explanation of the importance of Series
SERIES: MODELS OF DECIDABILITY (very important)(advanced) Michael Andrade teased me the other day for posting so many series, often without resolution. Why? Each series is an attempt at creating a proof. An attempt to create a set, series, sequence, spectrum, that increases the precision of every definition by its membership in that spectrum. I try…
The Importance of Parentheticals, Series, and Axes
WRITING IN PARENTHETICALS, SERIES, AND AXES (grammar) I learned the technique of writing with series(sequences) and parenthetic parallels(like this) from Karl Popper (Critical Rationalism). And it was his adoption and use of of series rather than sets that distinguished Popper from the Analytic school. I did not understand originally what was superior about his approach…
Series: Coherence, Judgement, Truth
SERIES: “COHERENCE, JUDGEMENT, TRUTH” Bill, (All), I had to think about this overnight, but I think you’ve given me a way to speak about the difference between: – internal coherence (decidability in pursuit of preferences) – and judgement (decidability in resolution of conflict). And I am going to have to incorporate the three factors somehow:…
Series: Definitions: Economic Schools
ECONOMIC SCHOOLS IN ONE LESSON (from elsewhere) Can I put the seed of an idea in your head? AUSTRIAN (German – Science) Austrian School: the search for economics of social science (natural law), and the means of improving institutions of cooperation without interference in the information system of the economy. Assumes the civilizational, generational, business,…
Peterson New War’s Problem, Last War’s Strategy
CRITICISM: PETERSON: FIGHTING THE LAST WAR, WITH A WEAPON THAT HARMS US AS MUCH AS IT HELPS. (NET/NET (TL;DR): The narrative requires intention, authority, and indoctrination in an effort to create behavioral goods, but natural law, like the good of markets, requires only dispute resolution, caused by self interests, from which all ‘goods’ emerge –…
Using Horizontal and Vertical Classes
—“Curt, I’d like to ask about your break down of class. It seems based on IQ and income level is that a correct assessment?”— Um… well, I use genetic, social, occupational, and economic classes – even though they overlap a great deal as horizontal classes. And I use the three specializations in means of coercion…
Series: Instrumental Extensions of our Memories
Symbols provide an improvement upon memory. Writing symbols evolved to create lists of inventory. A journal is an improvement upon lists. An accounting system is an improvement over a journal. A hierarchical database is just the automation of an accounting system. A relational database is just an advancement over an accounting system. A document store…
Stay with Arguments To The End
STAY WITH THE ARGUMENT UNTIL THE END (nonsense. example of the problem of the paradigmatic shift of propertarianism given the shift created in the informational commons by the internet) Well, I”m glad that we stuck with it long enough to fully demonstrate your egoism, rallying, shaming, and ad hom’s, and how assuming you have the…
Philosophy (Moral Literature) Is Not Much Help
I AM NOT SURE PHILOSOPHY (LITERATURE) IS MUCH HELP (from elsewhere) It’s one thing to suspect, another thing to do. Reading is hard. Arithmetic is harder is harder than reading. Accounting is harder than arithmetic. Programming is harder than accounting Natural Law is harder than programming. If you look at the people who have been…
The Demands of Sovereignty
THE NATURAL LAW OF SOVEREIGNS, THE COMMONS AND MERE LIBERTY ***’One who possesses sovereignty in fact by perfect reciprocity CANNOT fail to police the commons without violating the contract for perfect reciprocity. This is what separates the SOVEREIGN IN FACT from those who experience LIBERTY BY PERMISSION of sovereigns.***
Once You Grasp the Term Propertarian, You Will Eventually Find Propertarianism.
YOU GET AN A+. (from elsewhere) Propertarian = the reduction of social science, group evolutionary strategy, morality, politics, law, ethics, and cognition, to statements of the voluntary or involuntary transfer of property between consenting individuals. Next you will grasp that the scope of property Rothbard claims (physical intersubjective) lacking rule of law, and Hoppe’s use…
Why Do Conservatives Argue so Poorly? Easy.
The only reason the tens of millions of defenders of western civilization are in the current position is because they did not understand their ancient civilizational strategy, and so they could not advance it in rational and scientific terms, and had they done so they would have understood that Darwin, Spencer, and Nietzche were correct:…
Speaking in Operational Grammar is a Test of Agency
SPEAKING IN OPERATIONAL GRAMMAR IS A TEST OF AGENCY It is very hard to migrate from thinking in terms of: 1 – meaning or experience to your self 2 – empathy for or meaning to others 3 – empathy with others intentions INTO 4 – nothing but objective statements of incentives, actors, actions, and consequences.…
Aristocracy: We Ask Cooperation of those with Agency, or its Promise
We don’t ask cooperation of beasts We don’t ask cooperation of domesticated animals. We don’t ask cooperation of pets We don’t ask cooperation of children We don’t ask cooperation of the incapable We don’t ask cooperation of those without agency. We ask little cooperation of those who request subsidy. We ask more cooperation of those…
The Function of Propertarian Grammar
THE FUNCTION OF PROPERTARIAN GRAMMAR by James Augustus With out factoring in IQ, most humans cannot (or struggle to) separate/deflate intuited self-interest (the elephant) from their perception (solipsism) —which is to say that the average human struggles to launder imaginary content from cognition and so they approach truthfulness as a function of rationalizing intuition. Those…
Lying By Willful or Un-Willful Ignorance?
LYING BY INTENT, OR LYING BY LACKING DISCIPLINE AND AGENCY? FYI: On “Lying” our position is that our genes drive our intuition, and our intuition biases our reason, such that we are constantly negotiating on behalf of our reproductive strategy and are entirely unconscious of it. Therefore we seek to produce ‘agency’ under which we…
State – Business Alliances
STATE BUSINESS ALLIANCES Forms of subsidy to companies that engage in international trade produces multipliers. The math has been done. That’s why it continues. In fact, throughout history, the state-biz partnership in international trade has been a requirement at worst, and the central source of economic competition at best. The problem with state-business relations occurs…
SERIES: Means of Rule
THE ACCUMULATION AND CONSUMPTION OF CAPITAL CREATED THROUGH INCREASING AND DECREASING ORGANIZATION AUTHORITARIAN RULE (WAR – EVOLUTION ) Fascism (Authoritarianism) is the means by which we use the violence of the state to organize the entire society to solve a small, urgent, problem, of war, economic war, religious war, demographic war, or rapid economic transformation.…
Why Do U.s. Americans Give False Comments Of Appreciation?
America is a high trust society. We allow people to perform below their capacity, or even fail, as long as (a) they try hard, (b) they are honest. When an american says something complimentary he is saying, ‘you can trust me to act in your interests even if you are imperfect or fail’, or ‘as…
What Is The Foreign Policy Of The United States Of America In The Western Hemisphere?
The postwar policy of the United States has been consistent and unwavering: We are the last survivor of the world wars, and the reconstruction was something we paid heavily for, and invested heavily in, and which became our purpose for existence. The world wars were exacerbated by world communism – the undeveloped civilizations counter-revolution against…
Which Ethnic Group, Among Caucasoid, Is The Most Neotenic?
Show me where this is known. East asians most by far. Europeans next. Africans least. And everyone else in between. Europeans selected for more feminine traits resulting in thinner skin and the diversity of hair and eye color. But by every measure, of which testosterone (and penis size) is the most obvious, whites are second…
