  • Curt: The Use of Arrows?

    May 5, 2020, 11:08 AM

    —“Can you clarify for me your use of the greater than symbol “>” in the lists you often use? So “Human logical facility > …Operations > … … Counting” etc Am I to read such lists with the words “is greater than” between them? Or does it have another meaning from computer code language or some other operational system that I’m unfamiliar with? Or am I attaching meaning where I shouldn’t?”— Stephen Wells

    HIERARCHY OF PURPOSE 1. Logical: The Direction of Serialization, 2. Dependency: Hierarchy of Dependency, 3. Evolution: Evolution of Development 4. Physical Causality: Sequence of Operations. EXAMPLES: Hierarchy less to more |FALSEHOOD|: Ignorance > error > bias > wishful thinking > obscurantism > fictionalism > deceit > denial. Direction Less to more in both directions |MORAL|: Evil < immoral < unethical < amoral > ethical > moral > Righteous. Process less to more |EPISTEMOLOGY| Observation > Auto-Association > Free Association > hypothesis > (mind-test) > theory > (action-test) > established theory or law (market-test) > limit discovery (falsification) > repeat (revision)

  • In Pursuit of A Truthful Religion

    May 5, 2020, 1:13 PM We know religions exist and we know why: mindfulness necessary to reduce the stress of the neural economy. We know gods exist – at the very least as information. We also know monotheism is a lie by the evidence – gods change, are invented, and discarded all the time in response to human needs. We know submission is bad by the evidence – it has made us vulnerable to defeat. We know abrahamic theology is bad by the evidence because it teaches the abrahamic method of lying. We know the abrahamic method of lying is bad by the evidence. It’s worse than anything other than the plagues. We are trying to discover how to produce a non-false science of religion that is consistent and coherent across all disciplines. From that science we may reconstruct or construct a foundation for future religion. If you are habituated to your abrahamic monotheism that’s understandable. But it’s just a habituation not a good nor a truth. Man may require mindfulness like he requires rest (he does). But man does not need what you claim he does, which is why we have produced so many different means of obtaining mindfulness. You have been trained to feel you need what you do. But this was done to you and invented so it could be done to you for a reason: to organize the underclasses against the aristocracy (which wasn’t necessarily a bad thing until the underclass and priesthood set out to rule by deceit rather than the truth of physical, natural, and evolutionary laws.) Christian behavior (mindfulness insulated from status signaling and status competition) is a good. How do we produce Christian behavior (not belief) without the falsehoods and negative externalities? How do we do it without christian sophistry, pacifism, tolerance, and cowardice? This is not a question of eliminating your faith. It is a question of providing the ‘goods’ of civic religion for those unable to believe the falsehoods you are willing to believe in exchange for your mindfulness. In other words, you don’t matter. You have mindfulness already. You can believe in these things you do. We can’t. We aren’t able to believe falsehoods for ANY reason. We want to prohibit false promises in the new generation that is undermining our civlization like christianity and islam undermined our ancient civlization.. And you only hurt our efforts to stop what has destroyed your religion with your attempts to perpetuation of the falsehoods – you only assist the enemy – and that’s why it is demonstrably winning. The false promise of marxism, feminism, postmodernism in this world is more advantageous a ‘sales strategy’ than the false promise of eternal something or other after death. I will probably spend another decade on this problem. It’s a very hard problem. But I currently see the foundations of that religion, because I see the non-false consistency across physics, biology, evolution, cooperation, sociology, and psychology – to the politics and religion that must result. And is is more like our natural germanic religions : a market and truths – than it is our unnatural semitic religion: a monopoly and lies. In that religion Jesus is a philosopher or prophet of the feminine replacing the female gods of fertility, love, and beauty. And as such that is probably a bad thing. And instead, he should be considered a philosopher or prophet of discipline, by which the underclasses could achieve status by behavior rather than wealth or power. The aristocracy did not have this discipline and did abuse the peasantry, slaves, and women. Jesus gave them a route to respect, and in respect, social equality if not economic and military. He made it possible to demonstrate middle class ethics without middle class resources. And in doing so provided a resistance to the (hedonistic) aristocracy who then, like today, used various forms of excess to demonstrate their social status. And that was his genius. And that is his legacy. And that is the truth not the lie.

  • Nth Rule of Economics:

    May 5, 2020, 4:25 PM (repost) (a) as density increases opportunity cost decreases. (b) as opportunity cost decreases, rents and mortgages increase to absorb the decrease in opportunity costs (c) as rents and mortgages increase, salaries and wages increase to offset the capture of opportunity costs. (d) as wages and salaries increase, the price of goods services and information increases to the point of equilibrium. (e) this cycle repeats until the prices of goods, services, and information, can no longer compete at which point companies must draw from capital markets, and government intervention in availability, price and subsidy (f) as in all organizations of all scales, rent-seeking (free riding) increases in government, capital markets, subsidies to the point of exhaustion. (g) until a shock occurs, and there is insufficient uncaptured capital to reorganize the social, financial, economic, and political order. (h) whereby the tax paying class (who can afford to) flees, the city falls into decline, and then experiences a population collapse due to accumulated rents. (h) whereby either genetrification or depopulation ensues, which is entirely epenent upon (i) existing demographics, and ii) existing location. THE WEST IS DYING ONE CITY AT A TIME Primary culprit in every city’s case? Pensions.

  • Disambiguation, Operationalization, Serialization,

    May 5, 2020, 9:23 PM “Disambiguation, Operationalization, Serialization,” What the heck does that mean?

    1. serialize: to arrange (something) in a series.

    2. series: a number of things, events, or people of a similar kind or related nature coming one after another.

    3. From “Disambiguation by serialization by constant relation, and operationalization.”

    4. The constant relation (falsehood, epistemology, morality)

    5. The serialization: ignorance > error > bias > wishful thinking…

    6. Where operationalization means converting into a series of subjectively testable human actions thereby producing measurements given the marginal indifference in human action.

    So where |falsehood| is a monodirectional series, |epistemology| is monodirectional loop, and |MORAL| is bidirectional from the center ‘amoral’. This process requires we collect all synonyms and antonyms, organize them by some constant relation into a series of less or more of that constant relation. Why? All words (nouns, adjectives, verbs, adverbs) are constructed of dimensions (scales, series of measurements), open to sense, perception, emotion, or action. In most cases the human sense perception spectrum appears to produce no more than five degrees of difference for any measurement, such as “distant past, past, recent past, now.” And there are a number of reasons for this – which is why you can only visualize so many of the same things, remember so many numbers or terms, or discern so many directions etc. In general terms our universe is triangular bias left, forward, bias right, which is our direction of motion. This is also the minimum and maximum necessary decision criteria. If I go deeper it will get too complicated. So, by disambiguation by inventorying, operationalizing, serializing into sequences we create unambiguous measurements for language that prohibit conflation and ambiguity and therefore errors of inference and deduction, effectively turning language – especially language like english with so many terms – into a system of measurement. By combining this technique of very specific terms (measurements), using operational language that is testable, in promissory form (I Promise that…), absent verb-to-be (meaning “I dunno the condition of existence”) in complete sentences, of complete transactions of changes in state, we convert language to a via-negativa equivalent of a via-positiva programming language with the same test of possibility (compilability) since the ability to compile is a test of disambiguity (yes that’s the secret sauce). By using supply demand tests of statements rather than ideals we end up with the formal economics of human behavior. For example, decidablity = demand for infallibility in the context in question.

    —“I’ve not spent much of my life in “nerdland” so it’s interesting to observe the language and the operational detail/ complexity in your replies to me. It’s both fascinating and bewildering at the same time. … I am trying to reserve judgment on this form of communication as Curt obviously thinks it’s important for matters of P law and warrantied speech moving forward. It’s not that it’s not decipherable, I simply automatically find myself translating it into plain speech that is much more compact and universally understandable.”—by Stephen Wells

    That’s a good thing. 😉 a) you can tell others in plain language, but; b) if someone comes along with a sophism or deceit you know that there is more behind it than simple language. Think of it this way:

    P is math. Carpenters work by rules of thumb. We falsify false rules of thumb with math. My job and P’s job is to prevent false rules of thumb. Your job is to spread true rules of thumb. Together we win. hugs
