  • The Final Word on Ontology vs Paradigm and Frame

    October 9th, 2018 8:11 AM THE FINAL WORD ON ONTOLOGY vs PARADIGM AND FRAME. Ontology is used in subjective (experiential) and objective (testimonial) contexts to refer to a hierarchy of categories in a paradigm (network) of constant relations between existence perception cognition speech, and the service of speech in recreating the experience (loaded and inflated) or testimony (unloaded and deflated). . In the Continental Tradition (Literary, Platonic) sense it can include Experiential Categories (Phenomenalism for example), and in the Anglo Tradition (Science, Accounting, and Law), it cannot include experiential categories (imaginary, ideal, cognitive, emotive, pseudo-physical biases) as a defense against biases and their arbitrariness: inconstant, loaded, framed, fictionalized, idealized, relations between the universe and our descriptions of it. Being, and Ontology are currently “archaic”, and we use scientific categories instead: Paradigm. Paradigms are constructed of a network of theories, from terms to narratives; and we acknowledge that Paradigms (search for consistency correspondence possibility and parsimony) and Frames (loading, framing, suggesting, overloading) are both used by us in our speech. So we end up with (Ontology(conflationary)) vs ((Paradigm(measurement) and Frame(experience)) (deflationary)) Note below that “Being” and “Ontology” both describe this spectrum of subjective to objective. So when one uses the term Ontology, one can refer to literary-subjective-loaded-framed-arbitrary, or scientific-objective-deflated-correspondent.

    All speech consists of measurements. But measurements of what? And are they truthful (accurate) measurements or untruthful (Fraudulent) measurements?

    Critic (Female): “Curt, you always categorize everyone and everything.”

    Curt: “It’s called measurement. All speech consists of measurements. The only question is the scale of the imprecision of the measurement, by ignorance, error, bias, and the various means of pretense and fraud. I make precise measurements. Some of us weigh similarities to overstate or understate the value of those measurements and some of us weigh differences to precisely state the value of those measurements.”

    Thankfully I finally know how to talk about the grammars of each incremental dimension… sigh.

    Mathematical grammars are not contingent because of constant relations. That’s their beauty. The problem is they’re non causal.Linguistic (Philosophical) grammars are contingent. That’s their weakness.Operational grammars are not contingent. And they’re causal. That’s their beauty.”—

  • Programming is a New Way of Thinking – and you need it.

    IMO: Programming will help you think linguistically better than all other forms of reasoning combined, other than physics. Once you have physics and programming you have a formal logic of thinking about the real world and the verbal world. Once you have a BASIC understanding of economics as just ‘delayed’ physics (equilibrium), then you have the world at your feet. Programming, as Minsky said, was A NEW WAY OF THINKING for mankind. It is not mathematical thinking or language thinking as much as scientific thinking. 1 – Reasoning (unconstrained) -Associations 2 – Logical Thinking (constrained, non operationally constrained) – Sets – Consistency, Non Contradiction 3 – Operational Thinking (constrained, operationally constrained) – Operations – Operational Possibility. Operationalism: The absence of inference, and all the negative consequences of it.
