THE HIERARCHY –
FROM LOW PRECISION HIGH CONTEXT TO HIGH PRECISION LOW CONTEXT
3) Roman Paganism (archetypes) (categories and measures)
2) Roman Stoicism (virtues) (via positiva) (subcategories and measures)
1) Roman Law (limits) (via negativa) (further subcategories and measures)
0) The Laws of Nature (science) further subcategories and measures)

All our troubles spring from either the ignorance that prevents us from plain clear cut language, or the wilful misuse of language for the purpose of suggestion, deception, and fraud.

THE SYNTHESIS OF LITERATURE AND TRUTH
(read it and weep)
THE MONOMYTH – Transcendence (Transformation)
THE ARCHETYPES – Characters (Categories)
THE VIRTUES – Comparison Operators (Values)
THE ORDERS – Axioms (Relations: sets of conditions)
THE NARRATIVES – Operations (Methods of change in state)
THE DISCIPLINES – Mindfulness/Stoicism ( Noise Reduction)
THE SCIENCES – Measurement (reduction of ignorance, error, bias, deception reduction)
THE TRUTH – Parsimony (Most Parsimonious Operational Name of a Recipe of Transformation.)
There exists only one objective – transcendence.
There exists only one narrative – transcendence
There exist only a few sub-narratives – methods of transcendence
There exist only so many non-false virtues – variables of transcendence
There exist only so many portfolios of virtues – transcendent characters.
There exist only so many methods of non-false noise reduction – transcendent mind.
There exist only so many methods of non-false elimination of falsehoods – transcendent reason.
There exists only so many sets of primary operations – transcendent truths.
Via-Positiva:
A myth can employ anthropomorphism in an act of transcendence.
A myth can employ hyperbole (super-normalism) in an act of transcendence.
A myth can employ any technique to create an immoral condition against which one employs virtues to transcend.
A myth can employ virtues in an act of transcendence.
Via Negativa:
A myth cannot contradict the virtue of transcendence.
A myth cannot contradict of a virtue of transcendence in an act of transcendence.
A myth cannot employ a falsehood in an act of transcendence
A myth cannot employ luck or miracles in an act of transcendence.
A myth cannot employ fictionalism (idealism, supernaturalism, pseudoscience/pseudo-rationalism) in an act of transcendence.
If a myth can survive these tests then it is true, and good.
If a myth cannot survives these tests then it is false, and evil.

THE ARGUMENT FOR NORMATIVE DECIDABILITY IN NON-OPERATIONAL LANGUAGE
(CD: for those that cannot make the leap to operationalism, joel does a wonderful job of using traditional language to make the point.)
—
by Joel Davis
A social structure emerges from the conceptual structures held by the participants which have relevance to interpersonal interaction.
These conceptual structures emerge from conceptual valuation, and conceptual valuation functions via relative conceptual hierarchies of valuation.
These hierarchies of values then become the criteria from which a social structure formulates its interpersonal hierarchies.
To peacefully preserve a particular social structure, a society must have at least a significant convergence (or ideally, a consensus) between its participants in regard to conceptual valuation relevant to interpersonal interaction.
Without this convergence, participants in the social structure who hold competing conceptual hierarchies will support competing interpersonal hierarchies, rendering conceptual divergence doomed to social chaos and violence only resolvable via the tyrannical imposition of a victorious conceptual structure.
In the West, we addressed this problem with markets via the superordinate metavaluation of the twin concepts of rationality and honor during antiquity and reason and liberty during modernity.
However, rationalism and honor were defeated by Catholic (and Islamic) conceptual tyranny, and now reason and liberty are on the brink of complete disintegration via a regression to chaotic conceptual divergence as a result of the counter-enlightenment.
The only wall that can truly protect our society is the revived convergent, superordinate metavaluations of reason and liberty. Physical walls to keep out those who challenge their superordinance would then be merely a natural consequence.

It’s hard when you learn a set of interlocking puzzle pieces all built upon conflationary terminology that takes advantage of your ignorance

(Operational language defeats postmodern, Marxist, Jewish(Pilpul) word games. That is why I use it. )

SPEAK IN THE LANGUAGE OF MEN: TRUTHFULNESS
You speak in Nonsense words, ridicule, shaming, rallying?
If you are not smart enough to speak in the language of adult men, nor strong enough to tolerate the language of adult men, then that is acceptable to adult men.
Just do not speak in the presence of adult men.
Lest we find it more convenient to silence, punish, enslave, or kill you than listen to your woman-words.
Yes, “woman words”.

ON SYNTACTIC PARSIMONY IN PROGRAMMING LANGUAGES
Um. Your analogy to ordinary language is good. But you overstate the case.
Given the history of the evolution of languages:
(a) It is extremely unlikely that the arrow syntax will survive in current form;
(b) it is not more readable and this has been demonstrated in every (of the hundred or so I’ve had to learn) language over the past five decades.
And lastly (c), react/virtual DOM is a good idea, but it is terribly fragile, and the entire js architecture it depends upon is terribly fragile, and we should assume that the browser-as-OS and JS-as-language-of-browsers, will evolve as all other languages have evolved.
Why? because we are all working on hacks to compensate for the slow development of browsers and js language because of standards committees.
Meaning, the correct answer is closer to your original analogy: programing is simply a more operational language than we speak with in less operational and more experiential ordinary language, and as such the written words in both ordinary and operational language should be parsimonious without introducing opportunity for misinterpretation.
Great code is readable, but does not require interpretation. Meaning it is parsimonious but not obscure,
I have seen generation after generation of guys make the same claims, always to the same ends.
THere is no difference between natural language and operational language, including the grammar and syntax other than programming langauges, by virtue of operational language, must consist of informationally complete statements, and natural languages can rely upon the audience using ‘guesses’ to fill in the informational gaps.
Programming is communication with another person: everyone that follows you, using the limited vocabulary of the machine and its inability to infer missing information.

Names, Verbs, Adverbs, Sentences, Analogies, Parables, Algorithms, Logic, and Mathematics are just special cases of measurement, each of which decreases the number of dependent variables we seek to measure and communicate.
