THE PARSIMONY OF “ONE”
—“You know that Bill Joslin and Curt Doolittle only give us one law. Anything above that is no longer parsimonious.”— Bryan Nova Brey
The profundity of that statement is something worthy of a great deal of contemplation. Seriously.

THERE IS ONLY ONE LAW, AND NO OTHER
There is no reason for a basis of law other than reciprocity except to create a law of non-reciprocity (free riding, fraud, theft, harm, and to export risk upon others by taking actions that one cannot pay the restitution for if one fails.)

Men really need to speak to other men, without women in the room for the same reason women like to speak to women without men in the room. There are market value vulnerabilities that build trust between men but women abuse.

Social interactions must be ‘calculable’ and the greater the variation in predicability the higher the cost of discovering a protocol (shared sentiments) and the higher the cost of seeking subtlety (innovation).

@charlesmurray Charles: While we have increased interpersonal tolerance, we have decreased interpersonal interaction. In other words, heterogeneity and tolerance decrease sociability, and homogeneity increases sociability. The fact that this is a necessary consequence of cognition is lost.

I deleted a tweet where I claimed that Fig Newtons are the best packaged cookie. I have since realized that actually Milanos are the best. I regret my original tweet, which was careless and offensive, and I apologize for it. I know I have a lot of work to do to regain your trust.

Steven Pinker: liberals pursue power to rule by discretion. conservatives pursue the power to deny others power so we are subject to rule of law. Liberals=equality (impossible), Conservatives=Reciprocity(possible). @sapinker
