    I just want to point out that hoppe refers to economic science (falsification) but he himself relies entirely upon economic rationalism (justification), And he confuses philosophical positivism (which never occurred) with scientific skepticism (which is how science is practiced). What’s the difference? Justification (excuse making) = bottom up rationalization. Positivism = justification through empiricism (top…

  • The Relationship Between Truth And Markets?

    —“Curt, What is the relationship between truth and markets?”— A Friend || Truth > Trust > Trade Velocity > Wealth. All economic advancement consists of saving (compression) of time by the increase of productivity.

    —“Occultism to some people seems to be an intellectual diabetes from having too much time and too little responsibility in their lives. Who has time to invest in such stupid crap? I mean, I have kids for Christ’s sake. And a job, and I’m enrolled in university courses in the meantime. My demand for practical…

    Grammar: the organization and expression of constant relations.

    —“Curt can you point us in the direction of where we could find proofs or research for this?”–Rob McMullan RE: <“Different cultures do rely on different methods of argument, semantic relations, and definitions of truth. West is uniquely empirical: externally correspondent. All others rely on some version of wisdom literature.”> Um. I…

  • Mathematical Reformation Mathematical Speech

    1.1) Mathematics consists of a language of the constant relations of positional names. 1.2) By limiting ourselves to the use of positional names, we eliminate from our consideration all dimensions of reality other than the “zeroth” (point), and in doing so provide ourselves with scale independence, with the preservation of position (order). 1.3) The generation…

    Since ridicule serves as the literature of consensus over truth, all ridicule (all advertising) provides opportunity for education of those made ignorant by the comforts of confirming consensus over often painful, disconfirming, truth. (Someone much teach the peasantry.)

    Try to avoid stupidity in my presence. It gives me headaches. Different cultures do rely on different methods of argument, semantic relations, and definitions of truth. West is uniquely empirical: externally correspondent. All others rely on some version of wisdom literature.

    The central problem of induction is learning the tools of micro and macro scale…. while at the same time abandoning reliance on the intuition “of human scale”. I like this positioning because it explains the cause of the difficulty for humans: the intuition of human scale.

  • . . .

    Just to foster some thought: The difference in induction between pet, child, and scientist, is that while we all study constant relations, we study the constant relations at an inflation(bigger) or a deflation(smaller) of human (mammalian) scale – just as we study the universe at the subatomic, physical, chemical, biological, behavioral, and sentient scales. While…

    Um. The secret to anything is little more than the total time spent deeply thinking about it in some measurement or another.

    (stupid stuff) I don’t have time for games, but I fit a few hours in now and then. Unfortunately, I still haven’t found anything to compete with skyrim(past)/dead island(present)/borderlands(future). Loot games keep my interest. Lots of dopamine. lolz

    The principle problem with reorganizing linguistics is deflating ‘universal grammar’, into the three spectrums of experience, and the physical, ideal, and imaginary dimensions of the universe. I can reduce the physical dimensions to action, and the experiential to combinations of reward systems (prey drive/mate drive), and the imaginary to a combination thereof. That’s…

    When you say ‘Pattern’ what do you mean? A set of constant relations.

  • Signal Vs Noise

    You know, some of us seek signal and some of us seek noise. And the periodicity determines the difference.

    The problem is, people want lying. They just want they lying they agree with. Our job then is to eliminate it. And then people must trade rather than agree.

  • The Problem Is Lying And Overloading – Not Logic. We Are Hella Good At Logic. We Are Not Hella Good At Overloading.

    —“+Curt Doolittle I’m always worried about these revisionist solutions since it seems so strange to tell someone, when you say “is”, you think that you mean one thing, but actually you mean several different things. But that aside, it seems that your solution just bites the bullet and admits that there is no such thing…

  • Q&a: “Should War Be Conducted Morally?”

    Q&A: “SHOULD WAR BE CONDUCTED MORALLY?” Simon asks two questions, and offers his analysis. I offer mine, with a very different answer. Cooperation is only valuable if it advances ones line, kin, and people. —“1) Should warfare be conducted morally or is that an oxymoron? In my opinion, the answer is yes,…

  • Clarity (Time)

    —“We are constantly moving through spacetime but we just trade movement in time for movement in space and vice versa, just like a function in cartesian space trades position in the x axis for position in the y axis. Gravity is reducible to a change in the elasticity of that trade.”—Thomas Wiltshire Simple. …

  • . . .

    Gravity and Expansion determine the rate of change of that trade. The idea that changes at different rates at different velocities consist of nothing other than experience, is nonsense, because all change in velocity produces uniform changes in everything at every level of reality. If we send a mechanical device, or…

    “Time” is the new pseudoscience. The faster we move through that space the slower we experience relative change. The shower we move through space, the faster we experience relative change. We are always in motion. The higher the gravity (density) the slower the relative change. The lower the gravity the faster the relative…

    The only other people of relative equality we have discovered on this earth are the japanese. And at present they are certainly being smarter than we are.
