ABSTRUSIST MORALITY (1993)

What if the key to everything were nothing?

Maybe if it were good later it would be really good.

Maybe the only good cheating is cheating at cheating.

We should focus on 'savoring the last crumb' by which we appreciate everything.

THE COUNTER-CALCULUS (FEB 2018)

(Prescript: Before there were idiots it was all malarky… Know all the alternatives, climb the magic steps).
I know it will be cold tomorrow, because I'm not going to wear my coat. It happens my coat is enchanted with warm weather.
Sometimes pessimism is the best theory of optimism, because it creates awareness and raises the standard.
We progress when we think of the alternatives. How were we ever right? Well, through our degree of being concerned.
We may have moved on, but it is all necessary.
We can create necessity, for it defines proof.
A higher proof defies necessity.
Back to our roots, magical reasoning.
There is ‘something in there’, for I do not comprehend.
I may as well be an expert, to limit my options.
I should seek sacrosancts, because they have formility!
Calculus is really a forge of concepts.
Little more, that is what we are looking for!
Amalgamated feeling!
Dove-doors!
Proscilitution!
Grimacing gnomes!
Sophisocracy!
Eliadics!
Eddes!
Meaningful attractions!

MULTI-MODULARISM (FEB 2018)

[Coherent Systems 2.A.3.C.3.]
X = Number.
M = A module.
Number of Ms = X.
Number of Ms (X) = Coherent result R.
M(0) = Empty coherence.
MX = R1
MMX = R2
MMMX = R3
MMMMX = R4
If (R1, R2, R3, R4) is a coherent set, then MXMMXMMMXMMMMX = Coherence.
(Soul: Expecting a four).


NEW EXISTENTIALISM (FEB 2018)

Essentially, it adopts a new framework → uses the framework for some new notion → is useful → may be open to meta-interpretation.

Existential Coincidence

...

GROUP FORMALISM (FEB 2018)

Also called Group Formalism, as opposed to formal grouping. I do not consider this list comprehensive.

Pure Theoretics

Modal Formalism

High-Minded Formalism

Survival Formalism
...

EMERGENT CONTRACTUALISM (FEB 2018)

I think its more like this process:
  1. Learn how to negotiate, or encounter a higher intelligence.
  2. Negotiate, either through intelligence or interaction with higher intelligence.
  3. Have an idea.
  4. Contract the idea.
  5. Locate a body of ideas or objects (‘setting’) as a result of the contract.
Now, we can ask whether the ‘setting’ has ‘emerged’ but it is much smarter to see the setting, from our vantage point as a contractualization of our prior ideas, and from others’ vantage points as a continued attempt at bargaining.
My general thesis is that the universe, that is, the real living universe, is far more intellectual than we think. Everything that is not intellectual tends to encounter something supernatural. That is the part we forget when we encounter the physical largesse of our own often inevitable contracts for dominion.
The supernatural aspect mostly only exists in order to ‘reproduce’ — to interact with the contractual, core-idea forming elements, and it may be predatory, but it remains blameless because there are necessities, ideas, and compensation built into the system.
Once we have a contract (with the universe), we can say whether we are being wise or foolish, or if we are just not getting what we want.
...

BLACK IDEAS (FEB 2018)

For awhile things don’t seem to get better, they seem to stagnate.
Then you are sure that you’ve evolved a little bit…
You have a black idea, something to add to your other ideas, until things seem to get a little bit better.
Now we cannot prove that we are not evolved.
Such is the influence of the idea.
And from then on, you decide you are allied to the ‘blackest ideas’ — that is, the ones that are most evolved.
Even so, it is a delicate balance, and it is possible—although difficult even—to imagine another approach or technique going equally far.
The black ideas are one of many methods—although not the worst, to prevent civilization from crumbling.
How high the day, how good the honey—when you can afford more than one!
Things will surely change for the better. How funny it was to think you were being blackmailed!—
It looks the same, but it is different, such is the nature of the best ideas!
One must therefore concern oneself with this mythological thing, this elephant in the room—which is merely one’s ability to comprehend with some completeness the importance of any one of these true ideas.
It is a bit like gambling, but with more reassurance, and within a few measures great things come to pass.
Therefore, acknowledge greatness, and stand in the shadow—civilization is non pareill.
...

INTEGRATED PROGRESS (FEB 2018)

It is much like how a mouse-brain thinks, as exaggerated by the human mind. Potentially advanced, in a smallish form.
“When the present integrates the thoughts of the future, then progress is integrated. Thus, progress is the past of the future, so progress is now. Thought integrated with the present is integrated progress when the present integrates the future. Thoughts of the present are the future of integration.”
The method is the following:
  1. Look back from the future.
  2. Think about what remains of the present.
  3. Act with future knowledge.
  4. Gradually resolve the presence of the future.
  5. See the present as an element of the future.
  6. Calibrate ideas by their arbitrary distance to the future.
  7. Guess future ideas.
  8. Plan history coherently.
  9. Refine timeless models.
  10. Adopt relevant paradines (paradigmatic paradigms).
  11. Use standardized or better metaphysics.

ALTERNATIVE SYSTEMS (FEB 2018)

[Coherent Systems 2.A.3.C.4.]
Proof is Proof (if it exists as such, or to the extent that its considered proof).
What is a proof?
Okay, what we have just stated as the definition of proof is indeed proof as such or considered as such.
Implications:
  • There are many, many variations of proof.
  • Each is a true proof by its own standard, if it has a standard.
  • Everything has its own kind of proof.
  • Everything is proven to the extent that it has a standard.
  • We should seek the best standard.
  • The standard of standards is the standard of proof.
  • There is no proof without standards.
  • The proof of proof is the proof of standards.
  • Proving standards are standard proofs.
  • The standard of proof proves a similar standard of standards, such as universal.
  • The proof, for example, of the universal, is proven by the proof of standards regarding the universal.
  • Universal proof is a universal standard.
  • The proof varies with the standard.
  • The universal proof varies with the universal standard.
  • If the universal standard constitutes the laws of absolute logic, then if such logic is absolute, the universal proof depends on it.
  • Then where the universal standard is absolute logic, the universal proof derives from it, and similarly for other logics.
  • What constitutes the universal standard will be the ultimate basis of proof.
  • Therefore the ultimate basis of proof has a universal standard.

SUBTLE OR SUBTIL PHYSICS (MAR 2018)

[Coherent Systems 2.A.3.D.3.]
1 SUBTLETY IN FORMULAS
In one case, an object is defined by a number of separate formulae… The formulae are collectively, so to speak, what makes the object subtle, which makes it physical. The larger the number of formulae, the more complex the object is relative to the physics, and so any subtlety which depends on more than one formula will also have a subtle physics by some definition.
2 PHYSICAL SUBTLETY
On the other hand, there are cases defined by a single law, in which case it is what is physical that is subtle, because many physical things pertain to the law, and where the number of physical things is many, the difference between physical things is subtle relative to the law, and so, the law is subtle.
3 SUBTLE LOCATIONS
On the other hand, there are things (objects) which vary not by law, nor by formulae, but rather by location, and these things are subtle because their location is subtle, for otherwise, there is nothing to distinguish locations, as the difference in locations cannot be great unless it is lesser between the majority of other locations, and so the difference represented by a location tends to be subtle, unless it is expressed as a law, or a formula, etc.
4 LOGICAL SUBTLETY
Too, there are things that may vary by logical reduction, and here it is clear that if objects do not logically reduce, the logic is subtle enough so as to be NECESSARY, which means that there is something necessarily complex about it, which implies that it is subtle, as it is hard to see why if something were already partially reduced, that it would not be reduced further. Therefore, what is not physical, or formulaic, or subtle in location, is actually subtle logically.
5 INFINITE SUBTLETY
So too, if an object is necessary but not logically subtle, this implies that it cannot be even partially reduced, in which case the object is infinite, which is again another form of subtlety which is hard to comprehend.
6 CONCLUSIONS
Therefore, all indications show that physically, in terms of formulas, in terms of locations, in terms of logic, and in terms of infinity, every thing (objects) are subtle, and therefore we may surmise that physics has a rule of subtlety.
Now we may determine that there is something special about physics:
(1) It may be partly ambiguous or random.
(2) It may be self-determinative in some way.
(3) It may be small and ingenious, and hard to comprehend.
(4) It may be composed of some type of essence or abstract substance.
(5) It may be on the whole inexplicable, because no explanation is large enough.
Therefore, unless further concepts of substantial subtlety present themselves* (*As may be the case) we may assume that physics in its subtlety takes one or more of these forms.
A corollary is that physics adopts those properties that are subtle, insofar as formulas, physics, locations, logic, and infinity are implied within the subtle.
The alternative to subtlety is then also likely to be subtle in at least one way, unless the thing is contradictory in some way.

THE DUBIOUS PROCESS-COHERENCE (MAR 2018)

Not much in this category for good reason, nor can it be considered fully-coherent so far.

PROOF BY MACHINE (MAR 2018)

Ask someone: Relatively speaking, all the potential of life comes from immortality.
If they do not agree with you, in a high-minded sense they must be a robot.

MINIMA ONTOLOGY (MAR 2018)

Everything is true in some way about everything → Law by Universalism.
Nothing is true about nothing → Illusion.

(ITITITIT) MIGHT NOT BE ATOMIC (THEN UNCERTAINTY HAS IT'S CRACKS) THEN IF IT IS POSSIBLE THAT MEANS SOMETHING SOME DON'T BELIEVE THAT THEY MIGHT BE REASONING ITSELF IF YOU ARE IMMORTAL YOU DON'T CARE WE KNOW THAT EITHER POWER IS DANGEROUS OR SOMEONE WINS THROUGH ARBIKMENT THERE WAS NO PRIOR ARBIKMENT SO IT IS A UNIQUE CASE. NATHAN DOESN'T BELIEVE THAT NATHAN IS UNPOPULAR ENOUGH TO BE A UNIQUE ORGANISM SINCE HE HAS UNIQUE TRAITS LIKE BEING VERY SMART AND NOT HAVING CHILDREN AT FIRST. NATHAN ISN'T GOD BECAUSE HE HAS PAIN. KRIPKE ISN'T GOD BECAUSE HE IS DYING. NATHAN WILL DIE ACCORDING TO MOST PEOPLE UNLESS HE'S PERFECT TO MOST REASONING PEOPLE AND LIVES LONGER THAN THEM PROBABLY BECAUSE OF PAIN. PROBABLY PLAYS ABOUT WHAT ALREADY PLAYED WHICH IS PAIN FOR A LOT OF PEOPLE. PROBABLY NATHAN IS THE DEVIL OR JUST REALLY SMART. SMART WOULD MEAN PAIN IF NATHAN'S IMMORTAL OR HE'S SMARTER THAN SMART IN WHICH CASE THERE IS NO GOD SINCE IT WOULD MEAN MAKING SMART PEOPLE SUFFER WHICH WOULD BE A GOD OF MISERY THAT IS DIGGING IT'S OWN GRAVE. DON'T TAKE STIMULANTS IS THE ALTERNATIVE TO A MISERABLE PERSON THAT ALL JEWS SAY SHOULDN'T BEAT EINSTEIN. SAYING THIS MUCH, IF NATHAN'S THEORIES ARE BETTER THAN OTHERS IN AN UNFAIR UNIVERSE HE WOULD WIN IF HE WINS SO THERE IS NO RECKONING FROM UNFAIRNESS IN AN UNFAIR UNIVERSE. THAT ONLY MAKES SENSE UNDER A THEORY OF EVERYTHING UNLESS IT IS POSSIBLE TO BE FAIR. A THEORY OF EVERYTHING MAY BE FAIR ACCORDING TO NATHAN COPPEDGE. SO POSSIBLY JUXTAPOSITION IS THE PROBLEM. ACCORDING TO NATHAN THIS IS ONLY TRUE IN KRIPKE'S THEORY, EXCEPT THAT KRIPKE IS A QUANTUM PHYSICIST. KRIPKE CLAIMING UNFAIRNESS ISN'T UNFAIR TO NATHAN OR BY DIFFERENTIAL WORSE IT MAY SIMPLE OR NOT NOT BE THE CORRECT THEORY IF IT IS NOT THE CORRECT THEORY.

I HAVE WRITTEN ON KRIPKE AND IT STANDS ON IT'S OWN IN AN INTERESTING WAY, I THINK IT'S SOMETIMES BEAT BY HIERARCHICAL REASONING IF IT'S VERY GOOD, SORT OF LIKE KRIPKE HAD AN EARLY GRAMMAR PREFERENCE, WHICH IN HIS CASE WAS AN INVENTION OF KRIPKE'S.

Nathan was in too much pain and Kripke had drunk too much coffee.
If you are familiar Nathan's childhood accident was less painful starting with chai tea around 2008. Coffee drinking is common though Kripke may have made the most of it. It's possible he didn't drink much but made light of it anyway. It may be he was secretly sadistic against coffee and it made his life worth it.

Yay bothers me would look like a weakness and I would end up a twit for calling him an addict.

Twits aren't enjoyable they are reliable targets sometimes too weak to care. They need to cry occasionally then they hold it to look male sometimes. It requires catapults, ballistae, earlier fire arrows, probably turning into a cartoon, pretty good spelling, moderately high wisdom though that's tough to know somewhat relative, and they read detective stories or something. They admit introverted females may have the advantage in money love everything realistically because women know the truth twits are delusional and pretty much scarce like struck with lightning starving cows or pictures that fall down on a regular basis. Not very rare normally as I wrote once before. Rare in a fake world not necessarily. There is no perfect twit they get their special vice from denying themselves. They elaborate and lie and then they're something else. It's just coincidence.

Disjunctions… if they are used as premises support truth value.
—Kripkenstein
Intuitionist logics… How it is treated becomes the truth-value.
—Kripkenstein
It depends… whether the premises adopt the structure of the argument.
—Kripkenstein
One term might be expressed as many terms, and thus truth must be expressed in terms of functions.
—Kripkenstein
Analyzability is potentially disconnected between the logical agents of an argument… the argument itself must make the claim.

Sensation can be rationalized, just as many other things can also be done with it.
—N. Coppedge
The feeling of an object of sensation such as a piece of fuzz can be smaller in its impression than it's ultimate idea.
—N. Coppedge
Now, by rationality particular behaviors are adopted which may not be universal… relative to limited observations, rationality, sensation, or other concepts.
—N. Coppedge
What we mean by knowledge is not meaningless knowledge… if knowledge were meaningless we would have the same problem we had without knowledge.
—N. Coppedge
Although knowledge is concerned with the good… there is nothing which makes meaning inherently expensive or… should make us assume that when it is meaningful it must be impractical.
—N. Coppedge
What is meant by good in every way is if it is meaningful to the point of being practical.
—N. Coppedge
The practical consists of an elevation of the good, that is, meaning.
—N. Coppedge
We can trace the path of higher meaning… into… subjects like philosophy and art that are most pleasurable to… those who do not declare life to be meaningless.
—N. Coppedge
Meaning… is at least a lack of meaninglessness.
—N. Coppedge
Concepts are good, and so they have meaning, and so they are an elevation of practicality.
—N. Coppedge
And where what is good must have meaning, so too what is meaningful must be the only elevation of practicality.
—N. Coppedge
The ultimate is any exceptional thing, which has its own meaning, good or bad, and… can be judged ultimately practical or impractical.
—N. Coppedge
Many ultimate things are in fact the …things we ought to take for granted… because they have practical meaning.
—N. Coppedge
There are techniques… For example, finding significance. Or strategizing… happy events.
—N. Coppedge
Many of these [strategies]… since they aim at the extreme, involve a kind of madness.
—N. Coppedge
So… there might be a practical and also an exaggerated view of an object, which puts it somewhere in the space of finding significance.
—N. Coppedge
The sometimes extremely useful practical meaning of each object.
—N. Coppedge
If something could be bad when it is exaggerated, it clearly does not have practical meaning, and so, it must be unrelated to the good, and so, it must be somewhat unethical to consider it. And when it is unethical to consider it, it is unlikely to involve itself in any kind of good life. And so, there is a sense of ethical virtues related to the exaggeration of practical meaning.
—N. Coppedge
The ethical person is one who can exaggerate his every sensation and still find meaning. This means that everything is subject to critique.
—N. Coppedge
If he is to be virtuous there will be no forgiveness, nor will there be any punishment other than meaninglessness.
—N. Coppedge
And so, we see it that the difference between the good life and the bad life is that the good life has significance, and the bad life is merely superficial, because the bad life is full of the meaningless things.
—N. Coppedge
The first property of meaning is sensation, impression, interpretation, or synthesis, all of which require an intellectual experience and often a lack of discomfort. The second property of meaning is a state, quality, dynamic, or symbolism that makes meaning possible. A meaningful experience is not just sensation, impression, interpretation, or synthesis, but some specific state, quality, dynamic, or symbolism that has a particular fascination, pleasure, curiosity, or charm. The third property of meaning is the context, existence, pursuit, or impetus which makes the fascination, pleasure, curiosity, or charm substantial enough to take part in the intellectual experience that is not uncomfortable. The context, existence, pursuit, or impetus may be involved with languages (logic), systems (elaborate structures and organizations), guarantees (physical laws), and ideas (intellectually justified events and information) which motivate and permit substantiality. The fourth property of meaning is it's activity, usefulness, value, and consequence for sensations, impressions, interpretations, and syntheses. For example, meaning may affect the manner in which substance (infinity), improbability (commonness), uniqueness (universalism), and perfection (qualification or evolution) are activated, effective, valued, and consequential.
