    Adage: “Better to be silent in public and thought a fool rather than speak and remove all doubt”.

    Inverse: ‘Better to argue honestly in private with other fools and add to one’s doubts, than fail to argue, and retain them.”

  • The Three Faculties and their Falsifications

    Apr 30, 2020, 1:07 PM I mean, humans have three sets of faculties:

    1. The physical(existential),
    2. the ‘rational-reciprocal'(value), and;
    3. the logical(possible).

    So of course we need to perform falsification in all those dimensions: LOGICAL Categorical consistency (identity) Internal Consistency (logical) RATIONAL Rational Choice Reciprocal Rational Choice PHYSICAL Operationally possible Empirically consistent SCOPE (COMPLETNESS) Limits (have I stated the limits) Fully accounting (have i fully accounted for all) LIABILITY (OTHERS) Warranty (is it warrantable) Liability (is it within the limits of possible restitution)

  • How to demonstrate you know what you’re talking about.

    1. If you can write a definition like you can demonstrate you know what you’re talking about.

    2. If you CAN’T write a definition like this you CAN’T demonstrate you know what you’re talking about.

    3. Trying to write a definition like this is how you learn what you don’t yet know.

    4. So you discover what you don’t know, then learn, and then write definitions like this until you ‘complete the proof’ that you know what you’re talking about. 😉
