  • The secret to truthful speech is complete sentences (Transactions), in operation

    The secret to truthful speech is complete sentences (Transactions), in operational semantics (observable), in operational grammar (empirical). The secret Natural Law is the Universal Decidability of Reciprocity. We can outlaw false speech in the commons. #Trump

  • What Would Iq Obsessed Quorans Do If Tomorrow It Was Confirmed That Iq Scores And Testing Were A Grand Hoax?

    It can’t and won’t happen since we have overwhelming data, now confirmed by genetics (last year), and cognitive science, as well as empirical evidence in every field of study and in every country on earth, and in every race, subrace, tribe, class, family, and gender, that IQ is one of the “Factor” personality traits, that along with conscientiousness is the single greatest determinant of all human behavior and consequence, because it increases the ability to identify increasingly complex patters of constant relations at the same biological cost.

    Furthermore we know the structural and developmental differences between the male and female brains. So we know the difference in behavior desipte our similar factors is determined by biases in dimensions within those factors.

    Furthermore, we know that the factors and dimensions are produced by the same number of endocrine reactions (reward systems). And that genetic, gender, and developmental differences produce human variation in all personality traits.

    Furthermore we know that the primary means of improving human personality traits (including intelligence) is through pedomorphic evolution (mating for more youthful features).

    And that pedomorphic evolution merely delays the rate and intensity of sexual maturity. Giving time and energy for intellectual development.

    Furthermore we know that the primary variations in personality are due to the combination of rate of maturity, the different behaviors learned that accompany rates of maturity, and the gender bias of those traits from the more solipsistic and feminine, to the more autistic and male.

    Humans are not manufactured industrially but grown on an individual basis. But the rules for all humans as for all mammals, and for all life are the same.

    There are very few rules that govern our macro development.

    And endocrine variations in genes, utero, and early development determine our differences.

    And intelligence is what we gain from losing those ‘masculine’ features that in fact represent nothing more than depth of maturity.

    Yet to do so we must prevent the early maturity of the female mind, and its irrationality that is necessary for the irrational obsession with infants necessary for a very costly being that must be raised for many years prior to independence.

    On external correspondence. You can justify anything. that’s why we have numerology, astrology, monotheistic religions, marxism, keynesian ‘cherry picking’ economics, libertarian ethics, and the whole corpus of postmodernism. All the logics do not allow you to prove anything. But they do allow you to use strict grammars to FALSIFY arguments. And praxeology does not allow you to prove anything, but it does allow you to falsify arguments. The reason we use empiricism (observation) is to falsify our reasoning and force us to find alternative solutions. We tend to say an argument is true because we have falsified it and some particular variation of that argument survives. So we use that argument and claim it’s true (as far as we know). When we give others that justification we cannot claim it is true, only that we cannot falsify it and that they are welcome to try. If enough people try and cannot, the it is very hard to argue with it. However, for that to be true, we must state it inoperational language, which is also a strictly empirical grammar(and semantics) – and empirical for the same reason: to defeat the tendency of the human mind to engage in willful ignorance, error, bias, wishful thinking, suggestion, obscurantism, fictionalism, and deceit. This is a very hard thing to understand for some reason, most likely because we think and act in moral language and moral langauge tends to be justificationary. (Unscientific) because moral codes tend to vary from very reciprocal to very NOT reciprocal)

  • The Second Secret Of Learning Propertarianism.

    For every reference you use, express it as a position in a spectrum of at least three different states all of which share the same measurement (constant relation). The reason most things seem clearer or more insightful is that I use series’ of operational definitions to limit (as do all grammars) and emphasize, the constant relation I wish to illustrate. By describing a spectrum from coming into existence, to dropping from existence (failure) you create a definition wherein the priority of the properties of the category (causality) is not open to conflation or misinterpretation. And that is how Abrahamism causes deception: conflation and redirection (suggestion).
