The function of philosophizing is the continuous improvement in decidability, choice and preference through the continuous reorganization of narratives, paradigms, theories, categories, relations and values, in response to continuous introduction of new knowledge , ideas, and experience, by the fairly simple process of permuting through sets of constant relations, in the fairly complex, high causal density we call reality.

Decidability For Newbs
“Decidability in logic or mathematics means that the information to distinguish between 3 and 4 for example, requires no additional information for comparison. Whereas choice and preference require information external to the argument. I use ‘decidability’ and ‘truth’ very precisely. -

Framing, from false dichotomies through the addition of subsequent dimensions, to entire narratives dependent upon them, serve as a means of deception by suggestion. We use the term paradigm for networks of theories.We use the suite of scientific paradigms to provide commensurability between unscientific paradigms. For the simple reason that the scientific (deflationary) paradigms consist of constant relations independent of ignorance, error, bias, suggestion, obscurantism, and deceit. For the simple reason that the function of scientific investigation is the elimination of ignorance error bias wishful thinking and deceit from our speech by isolation and measurement of constant relations. -

By Bill Joslin
The spectrum of autonomy.
Autonomy – agency unimposed upon by another (left alone, the liberty of living on an island with no enemies etc. It’s not liberty, nor sovereignty, but rather autonomy)
Sovereignty – Autonomy insured by force (impositions by another rendered unlikely or impossible)
Liberty – the benefit of Sovereignty (autonomy) extended to those not able to secure autonomy for themselves (autonomy by permission and insurance from a sovereign).
Freedom – accepted limits upon ones liberty (autonomy by permission) in exchange for insurance of autonomy (we agree to obey laws, a limitation on autonomy, to have autonomy insured by a sovereign) – Or “Free within the Domain” Domain or dominion – you are free as long as you remain within the domain of agreed behaviour and within the territory of the sovereign.
Autonomy [proper] -> Autonomy secured [sovereignty]-> Autonomy extended [liberty]->Autonomy Limited [freedom]
