ok. I won’t play that game with you. Sorry. All statements exist in a context. You can understand the one the speaker supplies or you can invent your own, or assume one.

Well, at least, in the twenty-first century, it’s no longer true that the more you know, the more you know you don’t know. Because it’s possible to know ‘enough’. The problem instead is the more you know the more exasperated you are with the miracle that humanity survives at all. https://twitter.com/curtdoolittle/status/1582402298956767233

The biggest problem I face in discussing psychology and sociology, is because they’re structured backward (falsely), so it’s hard to use concepts and terms from that field without the baggage of falsehood that they carry. We almost have to clean house in the behavioral sciences.

Someday, someone will look at my work, and improve upon its precision, providing additional explanatory power for questions of higher resolution. But like the progress of gravity, the underlying pattern will remain the same. Because all science converges on the one First Law. https://twitter.com/curtdoolittle/status/1581056348833271808

😉 We get what we measure. We burn the capital we don’t measure. And the postwar ‘war’ against informal capital has been the costliest war since the Christian destruction of the ancient world.

But that’s a bit silly. So I disambiguate into Theology, Ideology, Philosophy, Science, where science requires all eight dimensions of testifiabilty. (Realism, naturalism, identity, consistency(logic), possibility(operationalism), correspondence, limits, and full accounting.) https://twitter.com/curtdoolittle/status/1580551588753858561

I define a discipline by the testifiability of its outputs (claims). If we were to claim science consists only of discovery rather than synthesis, you could claim that the theology > philosophy > science sequence required ending in operationalist, or logician, or syntheticist.
