One can plausibly argue that the Mona Lisa by Da Vinci is always recognisable everywhere as art while this pissoir or this
brick or my sink will certainly not at all pass as art eveywhere in its nakedness! Finishing line...?</p>

<p>You should pay special attention to the sentence,<br>
"pt. 5. Art that has to be in a gallery to be art isn't art."</p>

I just like to add, having learnt of Ian Hacking's "Interactive Kinds", that it may be just as an effective term to describe
the history of science as my "Interconnectedness, Complexity and Technology (ICT)". Also, "interactive kinds" reinforces "natural
kinds" beautifully!</p>
<p>Therefore, you may already now want to begin to read Ian Hacking and make your own Cumulativist version of it! Good luck!</p>

I'm wondering about writing about the "paradigm" of the microscope to crush the notion of paradigm because the microscope (or
the telescope) extends so beautifully from our natural observing capacity and through relatively plausible optics mechanisms. Eventually
I hope this is to happen, the crushing of the notion of paradigm, nevertheless.</p>
<p>It can be worth noting the preceding history to the laboratory and why one has decided to use laboratories in the first place. Because
Kuhn is explicitly unable or not willing to separate theory and necessary experiment apparatus for making the case of the theory. Thus,
experiment apparatus is not some arbitrary "black magic" device, but maybe in the Kuhnian sense, charicaturely!</p>
<p>What other choice is there? There are indeed deep limitations to being a human being, thus we need the microscope, the LHC, the
other particle accelerators, the SOHO satelite, the spectrometer and the rest!</p>
<p>It maybe unnecessary to say that this writing or outlining will be a total crash with "The Structure" even if his "Structure"
in many senses is well told and expertly composed.</p>
http://www.angelfire.com/realm/t_daemon_lea/ethics.html
Be careful for what you do, please! As an alternative to the Good Will of I. Kant, you can think of
labelling your propositions in your head with the appropriate value, ie. wrong, right, unknown and
undecided. This makes you more safely founded in moving forwards in life with regards to ethical
and moral decisions you make. Not that both Good Will and this Labelling go well together because
I think they do!</p>
http://www.angelfire.com/realm/t_daemon_lea/philosophical_notes.html#CACG
Objective system should thus satisfy the most strict and strongest requirements for such a system. It's worth noting that it should be
humanly possible to fit into it with a least one
member, one human being, and that it should live up to general requirements of plausibility and reasonability.</p>
<p>Although I've written about rationality above I like to write the following to make it perfectly clear. There are (at least) two
kinds of Rationality that it's fair to speak of. One is the rationality according to function, being the way
you apply your mind to whatever problems, practical or intellectual. The other one is rationality as in being of good mental health,
being well-developed. It should be clear that rationality is the top premise of this Ethically Objective system that I ascribe and develop
from a Neo-Kantian position.</p>
<p>This is a writing for removing any religious notion to the word Rationality and thus the system of Rationality may seem reasonable to
everyone. I'm in doubt whether I. Kant has meant any religiousness at all with his "kingdom of ideas". People have interpreted it this
way, but I can't see that there's a single factual instance of this in his text. Quite the opposite, I think he thinks that the common
person is able to make clever thoughts, to take part in the "kingdom of ideas". I find this a much more charitable reading of him and
it makes him look better too!</p>

<p>Added philosophical position, thus:<br>
I'd like to add a position to Epistemology: Internalist Externalist Compatibilist!</p>
<p>I also continuously update the first post accordingly! I note that few replies deal with the traditional concepts of positions in
philosophy. While I don't really care what position people like to have, I'd like to say that bracing oneself against the more
established concepts can be more challenging than just to give a rhetoric account of one's view.</p>

<p>I try to envision the presentation of almost any bare metal sink. It should be no problem to imagine such a sink
from your own home placed next to a pissoir at an art exhibition.</p>
<p>This is only a simple objection and an attempt to draw a line in encircling some good advice or norms on what
can be considered art to any extent.</p>
<p>I don't deny people the right or promote such a denial of right for people to be absolutely free to regard or
present whatever they like as art/aesthetics. As such, this view of mine is purely subjective, a view people
may or may not agree with.</p>
<p>I don't want to or can make any more points to this thread. The further work here is actually the work on
presenting this as a part of an art exhibition and I'll consider this depending on what contacts I make in that regard.</p>

<p>Regarding the Fountain by Duchamp, I wonder if it's a social comment on a muttonhead, making us associate the "art"
that takes place when a muttonhead is assaulted for being a muttonhead and thus the whole ramble that follows of shit,
concluded by the spilling of grained remains of this muttonhead down the drain to the sewer.</p>
<p>As such, the "fountain" of shit may be this "Fountain" from Duchamp! What do you think? Is he playing a point on
social realism here, ironic or laconic or whatever?</p>

http://www.angelfire.com/realm/t_daemon_lea/issues_from_the_internet.html#TTT
<p>I'm curious as to what the Turing test is good for.</p>
<p>On the one hand you have this computer set-up that's programmed semantically by a number of
programmers. On the other you have this semantic (naturally) one person. Between these two,
the computer and the person, another person is asked if this person can separate the machine from the human, the person.</p>
<p>So if one considers this from the two year old to the hundred year old, being the span of the age of this
person who is to determine the person from the computer, the older person naturally has a greater range of
questions to ask than the younger person, usually, because age means greater reflection.<br>
Naturally, the older person does this better than the younger (you may deduct the very oldest).</p>
<p>If you in addition to this give a time limit for making the question, like 10 minutes, I think it's reasonable to
say that this gets severely much more difficult. So if one is combining the very young age with a relative short
time-limit to ask the questions, I think it's fair to suggest that a considerable number of people will fail the test,
being unable to separate the person from the semantically programmed computer if it's comprehensive enough.</p>
<p>So what is the Turing test supposed to prove? What is its significance? The person and the programmers are semantically
indistinguishable. That is, the computer system may even prove more advanced than the person if one puts enough programming
into it. Sure, one can point to the possibility for actually being able to present a computer system that can answer like
a person can or even better, but this is already done and is surely matching the younger people in combination with the time-limit.</p>
<p>My conclusion is that the Turing test is of no significance (anymore) since the programming possibilities are so vast!</p>

<p>I can't see how the atheist is more rational than the deist/theist.<br>
Why should the bare view of today's science say anything about the complete human experience, from God possibly to earth and back
to God again, that is including afterlife? I admit we don't have evidence of after-life or more than just the (mortal) birth,
life and (mortal) death of a human, but still this is short of many other perspectives.<br>
So while the atheist puts one's sensitivities on science and what can "be put under the microscope", the deist/theist has one's
sensitivities on meaning, ethics, infinity and the ontology of intelligence, that all in all is far more rational than what any atheist can muster!</p>

<p>I've come to think about something on the duplication of person:<br>
A comment on being copied to another one of yourself. If you are indeed being copied into another then one can surely say
that only one would have the real impression of being one in the world while the copy would only have a real impression of
being two, no matter how you put it. So, being copied into another would of course fool the copy, but the one who's copied
would always be oneself.</p>
<p>The stuff is hypothetical, yet it can be written this way, I think.</p>

<p>If I'm to give you my best opinion on the worth of philosophy, it's this. As far those descriptions are good for something
to you is up to you, but philosophy generally carries itself by its virtue of importance. If it's no longer, it becomes a
matter of historical fact of human activity and reasoning. Cheers!</p>

<p>Please think of an art exhibition where there are several art objects. Now, when you come to the Fountain you find
this pissoir along with a sink by my idea and there are details/posters explaining the context and history of this.</p>
<p>So, I suggest that if you place this pissoir along with this bare metal sink made with only function in mind, you do
indeed destroy the Fountain as a comment to the art world and I think this may be something to think about because it restores
art as being art, the strenuous effort of artistic expression. Therefore, the sink obliterates the Fountain/pissoir as being a
destructive comment to art.</p>

<p>So, some "funny" thoughts:<br>
I am John Perry -> John Perry is presenting John Perry to others.</p>
<p>I am John Perry -> John Perry is John Perry in John Perry's belief (reinforcing self-belief or just thinking about one's identity and name)</p>
<p>In my opinion, it may be possible to equalise the de re position with the de dicto position and thus making it quite
indifferent of what kind of propositional belief you have. This means also that it all boils down to description again! A
fundamental/necessary belief in Indexicals is futile in my opinion. They can be bypassed. Proper description may be richer too, as shown above.</p>
<p>[Edit, 11.05.2010:]<br>
From Wikipedia, 11.05.2010, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/De_re :<br>
Quote: "There are two possible interpretations of the sentence "Peter believes someone is out to get him". On one
interpretation, 'someone' is unspecific and Peter suffers a general paranoia; he believes that it is true that a
person is out to get him, but does not necessarily have any beliefs about who this person may be. What Peter
believes is that the predicate 'is out to get Peter' is satisfied. This is the de dicto interpretation.</p>
<p>On the de re interpretation, 'someone' is specific, picking out some particular individual. There is some
person Peter has in mind, and Peter believes that person is out to get him." End of quote from Wikipedia.</p>
<p>De re: As it focuses on the person, the "thing", one can plausibly write this:<br>
Peter believes someone is out to get him because he's suffering from paranoia and thus his belief may/is not (be) true.<br>
Peter believes someone is out to get him because he knows about this person who is out to get him.<br>
I think these two explanations are better to clarify the situation. To simply assert that a shortcoming of information
explains one position better than the other, is simply to be untruthful and dishonest.</p>
<p>De dicto: As it focuses on the words, the sentences, one can plausibly write this:<br>
Peter believes someone is out to get him because he's suffering from paranoia and thus his belief may/is not (be) true.<br>
Peter believes someone is out to get him because he knows about this person who is out to get him.<br>
The sentences become the same because the care for information adheres to both positions regardless if you focus on the
"thing" in question or the words/sentences.</p>
<p>I can't believe this proves my point on de re and de dicto, but it's at least a precursor of what I believe
is to come on the distinction between de re and de dicto. I've also come across de se (of oneself) that may fall
into the same batch as one should always take into account that the world is not in your head or anyone else's,
thus one should accomodate one's views to fit objectivity or everything thereof or as close to it as one can get. [End of edit.]</p>

Mongolia. Even though he's singing smuget means danger in Norwegian, it's actual meaning is back alley (assumably where dirty

<p>It should be a fundamental belief that morality/ethics is to respect rationality in others, also the potential of
such in others, eg. children. This doesn't capture ecology very well, but I can think of it as intelligent/rational to
allow nature and animals alike a natural life (for various reasons) incl. agricultural/aquacultural. Thus, as this is a
facet of being rational as a person, every person should respect people with ecological views and the ecological view
therefore becomes the only ethical view in this respect, a general starting point.</p>
<p>Repugnance and appeal to emotions/feelings/aestheticism are not any good way to get there even though
I support every argument that makes a good foundation for Ethical Objectivity. (This has first been written, in parts, on

<p>It says in the paper by Perry, following from above, that:</p>
"In these three cases [you can investigate the paper for yourselves] the subjects in explaining their actions, would use
indexicals to characterize certain beliefs they came to have. These indexicals are essential, in that replacement of them
by other terms <b>destroys the force of the explanation, or at least requires certain assumptions to be made to preserve it.</b>"<br>
My emphasis.<br>
By essential in the meaning of necessary, this doesn't walk, I say. I'm against this notion of essential, but in exactly this quote,
I'm uncertain to what definite opposition I bother to have other than I can make equally good objective (without the use of indexicals,
especially "I") descriptions. It's also uncertain if using indexicals takes away any objectivity at all as the utterers are always in
the given context. Much of this has its responsibility upon the one who is making the description where I adhere to the possibility of
making as accurate a description as information and context allow, not necessarily without indexicals, but always possibly (as good).
This should therefore be an incredibly minor issue and it may be one that has been exaggerated by the publishers and editor of The
Philosophy of Language by A. P. Martinich, 5 ed., not really playing any important classic role at all.</p>
<p>On the other side, I've gained quite some consciousness of description by pursuing (more difficult) indexical-free descriptions
and it may represent fine training and insight in going through this yourself (possibly mostly in one's scientific pursuit).</p>
<p>Posted: Sun May 02, 2010 2:02 pm; forum.philosophynow.org</p>
<p>There's no dogma in it for all I care. I use the indexicals all the time yet it strikes me that scientific
papers demand more rigour. There's no program to get rid of the indexicals! There's no holocaust of the indexicals (perhaps this is rather distasteful...).</p>
<p>Getting rid of them, dogmatically or systematically would require major efforts in a wide number of people and it would
probably go against people's logic (of what language is supposed to yield or provide).</p>
<p>In line with writing of present tense as the indexical now, I can present these two sentences:<br>
Should we have a cup of tea? Perhaps we can have a cup of tea later, if not? It can also be nice to think about this solution where
the 2nd sentence takes out everything later than "now", implied by the 1st, a kind of "locking nut" to the first nut on the bolt.</p>
<p>Long live the indexicals and also the possibility of doing without them. Cheers!</p>

Perry's cart. John Perry's change in beliefs seems to explain John Perry's change in behaviour.<br>

<p>The Lost Hiker<br>
The author of the book, Hiker's Guide to the Desolation Wilderness, stands in the wilderness beside Gilmore Lake, looking at the Mt. Tallac
trail as it leaves the lake and climbs the mountain. He desires to leave the wilderness. He believes that the best way out from Gilmore
Lake is to follow the Mt. Tallac trail up the mountain to Cathedral Peaks trail, on to the Floating Island trail, emerging at Spring Creek
Tract Road. But he does not move. He is lost. He isn't sure whether he is standing beside Gilmore Lake, looking at Mt. Tallac, or beside
Clyde Lake looking at Jack's peak, or beside Eagle Lake looking at one of the Maggie peaks. Then he begins to move along the Mt. Tallac
trail. If asked, he would have explained the crucial change in his beliefs this way: "I came to believe that this is the Mt. Tallac trail
and that is Gilmore Lake."</p>

<p>Edit: I've been thinking some of "Moral Realism". Is it possible that morality is expressed in physics? That morality has
an inner foundation in physical realities. I'm just wondering about and it may seem stupid to a lot of people. If there is a
physical foundation for morality, I'm just speculating here, then I'm a Moral Realist, whatever it means in the literature.</p>

the levels of debt, economic sanctions of each Euro member state and the inflation of the Euro itself, parallel to ECB's interest rate

despite its relatively little population of approx. 12 Million people of the total Euro population of approx. 327 Million people and
the EU population of some 450 Million people. I'd say Greece is more like a drop in the ocean, which in turn makes me think that
Standard & Poor's gets bribes or has interests for being so incredibly negative about the Euro-zone, coming from the island of the (selfish) Pound.<br>
Think of Greece as being California that asks the central government of Washington for help! It's just the same! Of course, we should
be able to handle this in the most gentle way, allowing Greece to take support from both the EU Commission and the IMF, primarily.
In this way, Greece can also sidestep expensive private loans as it's now rated as junk level in terms of its (private) loans. There
is no crisis here! The Euro is still a very large mountain based on the aggregate bottom line of products and services generated by
its 327/450 Million people, representing potentially a far greater economy than that of the Dollar and USA. It's also funny how a (USA)
conglomerate seems to talk down on the Euro and Europe while Europe has been very eager to support the Dollar when USA has been in need
of support! Hmmm...

<p>I hereby call for new investigations into what this overt and naive sympathy implies to the justice system,

only is arrogant at best!</p>
<p>The answer and conclusion to this is that the rest of the world (apart from USA) needs to care for its "energy"
business for attracting (for itself) the devotion, benevolence and respect of at least its territorial citizens!
Implicitly, this means cutting corruption to effectuate better/best competing enterprises, letting people turn their

This will always yield present time point, X CE + 13,7 x 10^9 CE where 13,7 x 10^9 CE is the most precise scientific estimate of the universe

existing users in a TTL - time to live, manner. Fx. you allow a 1/one hour window for a new user to log on to this wi-fi router. In this time frame, everyone can
attempt to log on, but this window will only primarily be known to the administrator and the new user. Not only will a potential intruder have to be in physical
range to this wi-fi router, but the intruder will also have to use the correct user-name and password and I believe that all these options combined will make this
virtually impossible to hack/make illegal entrance to.<br>
In essence therefore, I'd like there to be four/4 box options:<br>
1. Allow only pre-approved users.<br>
2. Allow only 3 (or more) attempts for log-in.<br>
3. Allow only existing users to log on in addition to new users within a time frame.<br>
4. Once new users have logged on, close the appropriate number of IP-addresses for log-in possibility/authentication. Fx. 1 new user is opened for to the wi-fi
router. Once this user has logged on/been identified as user the wi-fi router closes for all other detected wi-fi unknown/unwanted users.
A possible intruder will either then be presented with a false log-in possibility or a page announcing no log on possibility/closed wi-fi router.

Possibly, if the administrator somehow fails the log-in attempts, then one can set the system to require physical access to ensure physical security.
By this, you deny any incidental hook-ups to the network even by chance, making the system very safe. You should be able to design this system this way, optionally
or as default to ensure security. You find this suggested design at the bottom of the page.

Time is, of course, a physical requirement, being at least, 1 of 4 dimensions. This is not the question. The question is how we as human beings have come to know
time, both as concept and our cognition of it. Historically, I believe one has addressed "a day's worth of work, but the revolve of the Earth making the days has
been essential of this formation. I believe the timing of motion is quite recent (1400 CE or so, just as a guess, especially in referring to the feather and
stone experiment in testing gravity and at the same time having the perception of time in this regard). One can perhaps check out the invention of the first
time-taking pieces or clocks on Wikipedia.</p>
<p>Clearly then, there's no questioning of time as such, but it's worth noting that we all live under the sun and it remains our compass of time until then!
This may change if we settle in a new star system, but this is not some time soon, I can predict.</p>
<p>Note. Don't pay too much attention to "rationalist's approach". It's simply put this way for suggesting the special place consciousness may have in

of the descent to death, the onset of a dying brain. Discipline on one's mindset, possibly being also one's morality, and mindful activities should take away the
possibility for Dementia to occur. Yet, it's my sense that there are incentives in the patient for Dementia to occur in the first place so perhaps Dementia is a matter
of personality traits and as such, is difficult to handle. I'm wondering a little bit if Dementia can occur as a result of inactivity by deep resentment. If you have
the idea that the society or whatever your environment is, isn't worth your efforts, inactivity is an option, but I think it's a poorer choice than suicide, even though
seeking unhealthy living style in combination with decadence/inactivity may be a possibility to this end. Be healthy!

therefore make it perfectly clear:<br>
My <b>hypothesis</b>: when people are blind to ethical/moral concerns of the type "it's important to follow the laws and be a morally decent person", they can fall victim
to conditions that result in schizophrenia and that this path in life in self-reinforcing, f.x. inflicting violence become less and less a concern to you as a person.
Consequently, the other side of it is the people who fall prey to these morally ignorant people.<br>
The <b>scientific procedure</b>: I can confirm or defeat this by 2 possible ways. One is to be precise in getting knowledge about people's backgrounds and correlate this
with their diagnosis, schizophrenia and depression being the interesting, correlation value of .5 being a total defeat.<br>
The next possibility is this. One can study <b>either</b> societies that are strict on moral code and check with the insanity rate of schizophrenia and depression,
these being the only factors of this <b>or</b> I can somehow urge and get people to behave more morally (extremely unlikely, but may be possible) and check for
improvements on reported mental health statistics, again, schizophrenia and depression being the interesting.</p>
<p>Not only that, but you also deny future generations to get to know how great an ethical/moral life can be in avoiding schizophrenia/psychopathy. Is this
really something you want? What if I'm right, proven by the research, wouldn't it be incredibly nice to know that this ethical/moral life by the general
public can eradicate the insanity of schizophrenia and depression and possibly more? If one is to subdue to this possible confirmation, one might/may be
unscientific in providing truth of the causes to schizophrenia and depression. I think my writing carries a deeply ethical/moral message and I have only
the good intentions by coming forward with this.</p>
<p>Obviously, the uneducated have little use in this, except as instilling good ethics/morals in their children and urging the society at large to also
conduct according to good ethics/morals.<br>
It's sincerely meant as a just that: the hypothesis/theory. One has to conduct more research into this and apply at the same time greater rigour to
procedure, including great care of one's integrity to what one's doing.<br>
It doesn't help you to research rape by raping someone and by raping someone you put yourself in an awkward position to other rape victims you're
supposed to help and understand. This is just a notice regarding the practice.<br>
It is enough to have the angle of immorality (by action and/or attitude) toward mental illness, especially schizophrenia. Besides, as schizophrenics "might"
be the immoral group, you deny the group of depressed, mentally ill any right to know what is going on in case my hypothesis/theory turns out to be right.</p>

It should be possible to determine Integrity, Mental Health and Physical Health by keeping one's ethics. People may fool themselves, but I think that
the most sensitive factor of these three, being Integrity, is very much affected by both bad attitude/mindset and bad actions, altogether being bad morals

the Sun and possibly the life span of human kind by every single person. The clock is thus determined by the 24 hrs cycle of the Sun (on Earth), essentially
giving the time when the Sun is highest through the day. Later, one has divided the Earth into 24 time zones with few exceptions. McTaggart comes out weak in
his academic life of presenting time as he does. Let me guess he has lived an incredibly relaxed life with few necessary daily routines. This is from the
reason that everyone, historically, has their primary activities during the day and catches the sleep during the night. This is undeniable if one goes back
to the medieval times, at least. It is eventually the objective time, given by the Sun and the passing of years, historically, that trumphs the notion of
time whether you sense time in this way or that or have funny thoughts about time.

will be f.x. 8 pictures, being 4 pictures of focus on each 360 deg/4 part of the northern hemisphere and the same for the southern hemisphere.
This will solve the problem of comparing areas on 2-D view by allowing the brain that perceives it, to correlate the curvature and reduction
in area that's interesting. You therefore eliminate the classical diminishing of the African continent so often depicted in older maps. You
can add numbers complementing the map so that one can check the actual size of the area in question. Cheers! :-)

Hypothetically and "crazy", if a square could be a round object, its four corners would meet at a point on this round object!<br>
You can view this in the vein of Riemann who defines a curved surface triangle to have a total of 270 degrees combined angle as opposed to the usual 180 degrees of a flat triangle! Likewise, it should be possible to define a whole square to be round like that. Although, you don't get the bent square, you get the impression of a flat surface with a point in the center and the meeting four edges that line in towards it. This circle then hides a sphere that's a Riemann-bent square. Cool?

<p>I only choose deontology of the (Neo-) Kantian type because I think it reflects ethical values on a deeper basis. I no longer, in the modern, contemporary sense, separate between rule-utilitarianism, act-utilitarianism and deontology because I'm of the firm belief they can be given an expression that make the three systems equate one another. On top of that, virtue ethics is a very strong contender for my personal belief in a type of ethics, but I consider it too loose for now and it seems incredibly difficult to pin down those virtues you consider virtues in a precise and univocal way.</p>

and the same person and constitutes, of course, a logical identification of these two appearances being the same person. The issue with
Lois Lane is that she fails to address a modality of possibility of Superman being Clark Kent, possibly due to Clark Kent acting like a
frail person at crucial moments. This failure of hers in the cartoon series of this identification is causing her to believe that there
are two logically separate identities, Superman and Clark Kent being two different people.</p>
<p>It is about Identity, but it enters the larger context on the question of Dualism. How so? Because, if the Superman/Clark Kent
question would remain, we could argue there are questions that are insoluble in nature. Now, as this is thoroughly resolved by this
writing, it has no use anymore. Even then, the historical record of the indescriptive-attack can prove useful in the future as to how
we are supposed to describe the soul in any good manner. At least, this is my angle to it. This may be put lousily and I'll see if I
can get to formulate it better later.</p>

Since then the question has been raised as posing a problem to description by a member of Philosophyforums.com that I've
answered to.</p>
<p>My answer is: I agree that a simple switch of disguise-identities doesn't work. In this description we should
compensate Lois Lane's belief by writing this: "Lois Lane believes that Superman can fly." is equal to, in Lois Lane's
eyes, "Lois Lane believes that Clark Kent in disguise can fly". This is true! We can indeed write "Superman" is identical
with "Clark Kent in disguise" and vice versa to accommodate Lois Lane's view.<br>
Just a note: for Lois Lane, the two names are not interchangeable, in fact they are logically separate entities to
her, much as the Morning Star and the Evening Star has been in the past, as is presented by Gottlob Frege in one of his
papers, but for us on the outside of the situation, they are both interchangeable and represent the same logical entity.
You can question the issue of logical identity, but if you fail to make proper logical identification, these terms remain
logically separate to you.</p>

class in Spring 2008. The story is that astronomy represents the biggest facts and physics, biochemistry and medicine
to mention some, represent the smallest facts. Everybody knows by now that knowledge in astronomy has grown enormously
since ancient times and that the cattle on the fields are now consisting of molecules and DNA where they've been
representing meat before, perhaps in 2000 BCE.

<p>Even if we don't know the neither the biggest facts nor the smallest facts, we should affirm our existence
and its whole journey up to today, 20.03.2010, and assert that we pretty much know all that's between these levels/frontiers
in the boundary, being between these biggest and smallest facts. That is: our language is <i>precise</i>
when it's applied within this boundary and consequently it expresses <i>truth</i>!</p>
<p>I think I'm very much aligned with both Tarski's theory of truth and the Logical Positivists' protocol
sentences.</p>

in order for Europe to have the best people and to create (more) large, successful enterprises so that we can SUCCEED in everything!
We shouldn't fail to address unemployment and a number of social problems in this relation as well! The obvious recommendation
is: "<b>no open sewer!</b>" The closing of sewer represents a major public health improvement, historically speaking!
Good luck and live life!

<p>It's also funny how conveniently you can make up entertaining conspiracy theories once a Toyota is involved!</p>
<p>The next invention in cars will be the "go crazy"-mode that's operated via a radio transmitter by a (Toyota) employee standing on the corner, hiding, somewhere near you!</p>
<p>Live life, people, crazy things are over us, with Toyota, of course! :-)</p>

<p>I also find these 2 possible interpretations of Hilbert's 2nd Problem. The first is the one that is answered by Gödel that axioms can't be proved by the system they establish, but the 2nd one is that the scope in some future may be proven to be inconsistent by the very application of these axioms. I've gotten the word that one of Euclid's axioms has been either proven to be false or to be excessive and it's in this line of thought I'm thinking of the 2nd interpretation of Hilbert's Problem and it's possible resurrection.</p>

This is initially a writing, "Om å true folk på liv og helse og/eller holde folk som virtuelle gisler", if you check below, in Norwegian, by email to the biggest Norwegian newspaper in being a recommendation of either making an article or just publish it as opinion by name [mine] or not. I find it so incredibly important, I therefore publish here as well in English.<br>
Dear you people of the world, first and foremost, the English speaking, but please, spread the word!<br>
People who commit deeply immoral actions by threatening others on life and health or to keep some people as virtual hostages, risk losing everything they own and have, becoming incapable of dealing with money, throwing career and job on the garbage dump and losing sanity in the same instance as one goes to hang oneself by what is the utter bottom in life, that one has totally destroyed oneself.<br>
Also, after this introductory text, there should follow, of course, an expert judgment from a psychologist/"psychologist" or someone thereof about how deeply seriously bad and unhealthy it is to dick around by purely insane, immoral actions. This can be mixed by large pictures and emotional appeals of the 1. person type of different kinds and characters.<br>
Ending conclusion of the article will be that the newspaper/author/others (possibly) supports a better society-/social recipe, a more progressive society, fewer lunatics and victims of these and lastly, more optimists.<br>
This blog's last words in this regard are: there's only one method of remedy to avoid this madness and to achieve a fine life and this is the sum of these three parts: ethics, discipline and attitude!<br>
You are hereby WARNED by this information!<br>

Kjære dere som bor i Norge!<br>
<br>
Folk som begår dypt umoralske handlinger ved å true andre på liv og helse eller å holde noen som virtuelle gisler, risikerer å miste alt de eier og har, ute av stand til å behandle penger, kaste karriere og jobb på søppelhaugen og miste forstanden i samme slengen idet man går og henger seg selv ved det som er den ytterste bunnen i livet, at man har fullstendig ødelagt seg selv!<br>
<br>
Også, etter denne innledende tekst så følger selvfølgelig ekspertuttalelse fra "psykolog"/psykolog eller noen derav om hvor dypt alvorlig og usunt det er å bedrive rent ut sinnsykt umoralske handlinger. Dette kan blandes med store bilder og emosjonelle appeller av typen "jeg"-fortellinger av ulik art og karakter.<br>
<br>
Avsluttende konklusjon vil være at avisen/forfatteren/andre (muligens) støtter en bedre samfunns-/sosial oppskrift, et mer progressivt samfunn, færre galninger og ofre for disse og til sist, flere optimister!<br>
<br>
Denne bloggens siste ord er i denne sammenheng: det finnes bare et botemiddel for å unngå denne galskap og oppnå et fint liv og det er summen av disse tre deler: etikk, disiplin og holdning!<br>
<br>
Dere er herved ADVART ved denne informasjon!

<p>If one would have the same temperature farther in toward the Sun's core then it has necessarily the same, relatively thin composition there as well, you know, this being a smaller Sun, even if the mass in this case either has to differently organised relatively to the substances of the Sun's composition or that it's just lighter.</p>
<p>The conclusion is that the heat (or superheat) is optimal a little farther out for these atoms'/particles' vibrations to produce this heat than where atoms'/particles' become more dense as one moves in toward the core of the Sun. I'm uncertain to what degree this may hold, describing the variations of the temperature of the star at all levels, but this explanation/theory is, of course, meant to hold for conditions of hot surfaces on all instances of the kind our Sun is displaying. So it's first and foremost an explanation/theory of description that applies to this surface and its gaseous outer layer, but it may also extend to, in a variable manner, a host of conditions of (astro-)physics.</p>

There's a general lack of possibility for having one's therapy sessions properly documented by video, possibly making this a quality criterium.
The whole psychiatric practices should be certified by some kind of ISO-standard what concerns document flows and quality criteria of these, possibly also quality-certifying other aspects of the psychiatry.<br>
There should be a possibility of having common spaces monitored by video in cases of rumbles and ensuring security for both staff and patients, possibly making any police work far easier.<br>
It's assumed psychiatry complies with best practices, that it's strictly legal and that this is reflected in the psychiatric hospital departments and institutions. This should include qualified transparency and the possibility to retrace history of treatment.

processor system and any operating system so that the competition for making both processors and operating systems becomes
more transparent and fair. It should be noted that Microsoft controls 91.60% of the total OS market (according to Wikipedia,
Feb. 2010. You can check out marketshare.hitslink.com yourself) leaving out the number of the market for operating systems,
but you get the idea, and that AMD and Intel control 19.4% and 80.5%, respectively, of the processor market for home/personal
computers (PCs, Jan. 25th 2010, Computerworld). This is in the face of the entire population of 6.8 billion increasingly
educated people, possibly deducting the U.S. American population, and these companies are only U.S. American. What is going
on? This picture should definitely change to the extent of including four major players on the world stage in each of the
two markets of operating systems and home/personal computers. It should be unnecessary to point out that every continent on
the planet should have the fair chance and freedom to develop these crucial technologies. The syndication can be just like OPEC,
optionally, to provide room and resources for this to happen in the pattern of Open Source/Free Software.
