    Those civil orders do not survive. Why is it that all attempts at those civil orders fail to survive. If you cannot make an operational argument (produce a model that survives falsification) then you’re just talking fantasies. Libertarianism is just communism of the commons.

    @GloboHomoCorp @jcjray @paulg @curtdoolittle That is incorrect: we advocate property or community living contract relationships, which feature direct funding for services rendered, vs authoritarian structures that centralize power in honeypots and bureaucratic, lossy agencies.

    But likewise, just as it has taken you many years to migrate from the positivist search for mathematical discovery of units of informational prediction, to the demand for warranty of due diligence (falsification), you too are vulnerable to innumeracy, pseudoscience, ‘literature’.

    “IQ” THREAD

    “IQ” measures an inferior form of intelligence, stripped of 2nd order effects, meant to select paper shufflers, obedient IYIs.

    1- When someone asks you a question in REAL LIFE, you focus first on “WHY is he asking me that?”, which slows down. (Fat Tony vs Dr John)

    CLOSE, BUT IT”S NOT JUST MATH, BUT ALGORITHMIC (OPERATIONAL).

    —“My sense is that Curt is more mathematically and scientifically oriented than he is literarily oriented. His syntax is almost algebraic at times.”— Joel Harvey

    That’s correct. I actually write in programmatic statements just like we write software. So

    |PARADIGMS(GRAMMARS)| Fictional (inflationary) > Literary(Meaningful) > testimonial(descriptive) > Algorithmic (programmatic, operations) > Scientific (correlative, statistical) > Logical (sets) > Mathematical (units).

    In fact, my writing looks almost identical to my pseudocode. I was taught in the era where we wrote pseudocode (outline in english) first to think through the logic, and in doing so write documentation, then to write the code itself (transactions). So yes, that is why you see what you see. And it is why I understood the possibility of algorithmic language of law…. So there you go. Like I said. The reason I was able to complete Hayek’s program i is because I was born AFTER Turing and hayek was born BEFORE Turing. Now if I could just explain to all Austrians that austrian econ is the LAW of Economics rather than economics proper, they would understand both their discipline and what I have done with it.

    Via Positiva: Provide us with a precise description so that we can construct the experience you seek to communicate.

    Via Negativa: Provide us with a description so that we can constrain our imagination to that which you seek to communicate.

    Identity allows us to constrain our imagination so that we can construct the experience.

    @curtdoolittle Sounds like an interesting conversation was had. I have a question regarding a concept I was mulling over yesterday: Would it be right to separate the term “Law” and “Rules”, to strengthen both in terms and use?

    Because science consists of the acts of due diligence in those categories of dimensions available to man in his cognition: identity, consistency, correspondence, operational possibility, completeness, and in human affairs, rational choice, and in legal affairs reciprocity.
