    THE FAILURE OF PARADIGMS (WAYS OF THINKING)

    There is a reason the world is continuously coalescing to the vocabulary and grammars of science: and that is because of the commensurability and therefore falsificationary value of the single most parsimonious vocabulary and grammar consisting entirely of continuous relations from the very small below human scale, through to human scale, to the very large beyond human scale – the semantics of which consist of analogies to observable experience: human scale.

    Any idiot can come up with a paradigm that provides some sort of explanatory power, in the same way that a fairy tale, legend, or mythos provides explanatory power: by analogy. And idiots come up with new paradigms all the time, in an effort to elucidate some set of relations or other. And the they congratulate themselves on their insight and next seek to preserve that insight by justification: a forever-failing attempt to find a way for the rest of human knowledge to fit that paradigm. They over-invest. They fail.

    It is quite different to start with an attempt to discover the grammar and semantics of science itself, and with that ambition to correct the minor incompatibilities between the arts and sciences, thereby increasing commensurability and falsifiability across all arts and sciences – producing a universal grammar and semantics and as such rendering all human knowledge more parsimonious and synthetic.

  • Definition of Meaning

    MEANING (dimensional definition) (a) normative content (relations) (market) (b) habitual content (relations) (personal) (c) intentional content (relations) (d) extended (externalities) content (relations) (e) important (value) content (relations) A network of relations(associations) reducible to a network of analogies to experience. Where experience can refer to any combination of physical, emotional, and mental experiences. ETYMOLOGY: “INTEND” “intend, have in mind,” Old English mænan “to mean, intend, signify; tell, say; complain, lament,” from West Germanic *mainijan (source also of Old Frisian mena “to signify,” Old Saxon menian “to intend, signify, make known,” Dutch menen, German meinen “think, suppose, be of the opinion”), from PIE *meino- “opinion, intent” (source also of Old Church Slavonic meniti “to think, have an opinion,” Old Irish mian “wish, desire,” Welsh mwyn “enjoyment”), perhaps from root *men- (1) “to think.” Conversational question you know what I mean? attested by 1834.

  • Language Regulation Corresponds to All Other Regulation: Fear of Corruption and Fraud Drives Regulation.

    James Santagata just shared an excellent paper, which illustrates the relationship between common law and continental law, language regulation, and economic regulation.
    Well, the conclusions should be pretty obvious (prior restraint vs post resolution) and that all countries pay a trade off between the utility of some regulation to prevent frauds of all sorts, lots of regulation to prevent malinvestment or tax evasion, and post-hoc litigation to encourage experimentation.

    by Bill Joslin

    I think the Propertarian legal frames can be explained simply. But the difficulty in simplistic explanations pertains to constraining interpretation (free association) which dissolves our value on testimony as a demanding moral good. We can habituate that via law and grounded parables (parables grounded in reality))

    (CURT: If you can disassemble that, it’s spot on.)
