—“Is modern art masculine or feminine?”—Erik Lukovsky It is not so much masculine versus feminine, but decoration, criticism and ridicule versus art, heroism, and sacredness. In the sense that modern art is gossip, and traditional art is sacred then yes, modern art is feminine and traditional art is masculine. Furthermore, modern…

Well, I would say that the difference between epistemology and ontology as it is used, is the difference between truth and meaning. Ontologies are arbitrary, but epistemology is a product of the hierarchy of constant relations of the universe. To state it prosecutorially, I would say that epistemology produces a testimonial ontology,…

—“How much use would propertarianism be to a futurist?”– A Friend Well, I would say it explains the cause of emergent technologies and each of the layers of artificial intelligence. I would say that (as Wolfram’s been harping) that he next science is one of emergent operations. And that we have been…

So Mises was wrong in stating that there are no constant relations in economics. Instead, the constant relations are limited to those harmonics (intermediary, or externalities) that limit the consequences of causal relations.
. . .
So logic has no non-trivial value, since the function of logic outside of mathematics – which consists of nothing but constant relations sets is merely the falsification of inconstant relations. Instead, semantics, grammar, and syntax serves to limit relations to sets of constant relations the way lie groups limit causal relations.

Skepticism is nonsense, but preserving contingency is not only sensible but necessary.
. . .
Mathematics by the virtue of consisting of nothing other than positional names, preserves constant relations, since only constant relations are expressible. In language we can engage in all sorts of association by non constant relations. By speaking in actions we speak in constant relations. It has taken me far too…

SMALL STATES FAIL FASTER for the simple reason that they run out of credit capacity faster – that’s why.
Gpu’s And Topological Data Structures
Via Kashif Vikaas I suppose that its not common knowledge but we were doing this back in 2006, and if you’re going to store data in manifolds (topologies) of N-dimensions of relations, then you can used various pathing algorithms and even possibly N-dimensional visibility algorithms to search content far faster than any existing…

The problem of philosophy is not, and never has been logic(via positiva proof) it is overloading (via negativa grammar). All the supposed ‘logics’ consist of nothing more than domain and range of some dimension of perception, wherein logic (constant relations) is unavoidable. Logic consists of the attempt to preserve constant relations, and ‘proof’…

by Bill Joslin Inhibitions to human cognition follow the inverse pattern. Perception -> generalization-> conflation -> faked commensurability — My view is that we try to reinforce paradigmatic networks bcasue it’s cheaper.

I mean. Humans are GREAT at logic. We are not so good at discovering disruptive external correspondence instead of confirming internal consistency. We are really REALLY bad at surviving logical overloading. I mean… math is interesting simply because it is so simple, that from that trivial simplicity we can construct deterministic consequences, beyond our ability…

The thing that surprises me about the deflationary grammars is – like our exhaustion of edible flora – just how exhaustive we have been at developing grammars for each dimension and paradigm.
. . .
All this study of ‘logic’ has been, as far as I can tell, rather ridiculous, since the principle problem with human reasoning is *overloading* not logic. So solving the problem of overloading requires we merely limit grammar such that overloading is all but impossible. Operational language consists of a deflationary grammar that limits logic almost…

Dimensions of reality on Y axis from upper right to bottom. Minimum to Ordinary Language grammars on X upper right to left. Truth criteria along the bottom. Right most column ordinary language. So I have a lot of revision to do with this but in general, the idea is that in every deflationary ‘grammar’…

The structure of phrases, sentences, paragraphs, stories, and interwoven stories of increasing length is dependent upon practice and upon rhythm. That practice and rhythm can come from speaking, reading, or both. And our patience with ourselves and our audience’s patience with our oratory, cannot diverge without either’s loss of context. Hence our ability to…
Gilad At His Best Once Again.
A Lesson in Jewish PR By Gilad Atzmon Towards the end of my most recent book, Being in Time – a Post Political Manifesto, I elaborate on Jewish controlled opposition strategies. I contend that when Jews detect that that something associated with them has become problematic they quickly form satellite dissent movements: they are…
