Reference status

Generated by luria index from the record’s frontmatter — built, not edited.

Every reference in the record is a claim — “this is why things are the way they are” — and this page is the account of the claims that need a human eye: citations of documents that are not in force, codes that resolve to nothing, and the acknowledgements and exemptions that keep either kind quiet on purpose. Nothing on this page fails a build (ADR-035): every row is a judgement call, and the acknowledgement comments are how a judgement, once made, stops being asked again.

Documents cited while not in force

Only an Active document is in force. Proposed and Deferred mean not in force yet — an open question, being cited as if it were settled — while Superseded and Rejected mean no longer in force, which is often a perfectly good thing to cite: history, or a rejection worth pointing at. Either way the citation should be deliberate, and this section lists the ones nobody has vouched for yet.

810 documents cited without acknowledgement. Not listed: 15282 citations someone has already vouched for with an inactive-ok: comment at the citing site.

To vouch for one, put the reason where the citation is — inactive-ok: covers its own line and the line below it, inactive-ok-block: its paragraph, inactive-ok-file: the whole page:

CLAIM-303 — Proposed

Filing an argument moves work across time: it is paid for now, in filing, indexing, tracking dependencies and checking it is still current, against reconstruction later, so it is worth its cost only when expected reuse covers it, and recurrence is evidence of reuse, not the criterion

CLAIM-440 — Proposed

An organization’s appraisal is the negotiation among its perspectives, a common currency is that negotiation’s admitting an ordering of the options it faces, and goal-conduciveness valence is a regime in which an ordering of the organization’s own states by their bearing on its maintenance prevails in the negotiation; so valence presupposes contested rankings, not frustrated demands, its sign is whether the organization runs ahead of or behind a reference course along the potential ordering, its intensity is how far the negotiation’s decisions follow that ordering, and ambivalence, where no ordering prevails, differs from neutrality, where one prevails and the organization keeps to its course

CLAIM-220 — Proposed

For a named population of receivers and a stated family of tasks, what survives a translation, retelling or rendering is the set of task-relevant communicative distinctions those receivers can still recover from it, and measured preservation of the pragmatic observables predicts that recovery better than preservation of the wording or of the proposition, with or without its force

CLAIM-308 — Proposed

Where reuse cannot be forecast, recurrence weighted by reconstruction cost is the filing criterion, not only evidence for one: filing at the first use at which reconstructing again would take the overpayment past the cost of filing is within 2 − (c_a + u)/c_r of the hindsight optimum on every sequence of uses, at most twice, and no deterministic rule without foresight guarantees materially better, under fixed known costs, with staleness left out and the cost of recognizing what a filed argument answers taken as fixed

CLAIM-306 — Superseded

Under a deadline, search can establish presence by finding one item but absence only by exhausting the collection, so “If I can’t find it, it isn’t there” acts on an unfinished search as negation as failure acts on a finished one: a default stronger than either the closed-world assumption or negation as failure, safe only when the arrangement makes the full search finish within the deadline

CLAIM-337 — Proposed

Active inference already runs an internal loop: mental action selects among higher-level cognitive states and sets the precision of lower-level observations, structure learning reshapes the generative model without action, and a judgement is behaviour, so a judgement–observation loop may be action and perception one Markov blanket inward

CLAIM-157 — Proposed

Relative to a stated target, a combined form is one system while its joint dynamics are nearly decomposable with the form as a block whose gap beats the Occam factor, and it lasts as long as that block persists; the unit is the gap-isolated block, not any member

THEORY-002 — Proposed

Convergence of representations, in the Platonic hypothesis’s sense, is convergence of kernels, which fixes representations only up to the symmetry group of what is observed; whether closeness in distribution implies closeness of representation depends on the distance used

TERM-076 — Proposed

goal-conduciveness valence, organizational: a regime in which the negotiation among a system’s perspectives has, approximately, a potential, an ordering of the system’s own states by their bearing on its maintenance along which the moves that win its conflicts are improvements, persisting and restored after interruption; signed by whether the system runs ahead of or behind a reference course along that potential, and as intense as the negotiation’s decisions follow it rather than any rival ordering

CLAIM-358 — Proposed

Learned local accommodation can reduce the amortized cost of recurrent arbitration: where a recurring conflict among an agent’s processes admits a stable accommodation, settling it among the processes can cost less over repeated encounters than escalating each instance to a higher-level process that mediates or overrides, though local negotiation and the relations it needs are not free

CLAIM-491 — Proposed

No action is selfless in the sense of aiming at a good that is no self’s: what is called selflessness, collectivist or altruistic, is concern for the good of a self extended to include others or a group, so collectivism is self-interest on a larger self-identity

CLAIM-430 — Proposed

An interaction can make available a way of relating that its participants’ operative perspectives did not hold, by giving each a role to enact in it, so that taking part can come before, and help produce, the reinterpretation it later seems to express; whether the change stays with the partner, generalizes to a category, or is reproduced beyond the encounter are further questions

CLAIM-439 — Proposed

A regime of valence is felt, in the sense of attended and available to the system’s other processes, when the system that is in it also models it: when a deeper process infers which ordering wins its negotiation, which way the system is moving along it and how strongly it prevails, and the inference is used elsewhere in the system; unfelt valence is the potential without that model, as unfelt fluency is a change in precision without the inference about it

CLAIM-477 — Proposed

Relata stand to relations as realizations stand to specifications: what an entity is, is partly fixed by the constraints on the configurations of entities and relations it can enter, and those constraints are themselves realized and maintained by something, so neither relata nor relations, nor specifications nor realizations, are prior without qualification

THEORY-139 — Proposed

A corporation that forms its judgments through authorised avowal and corrects the inconsistency any mechanical aggregation of its members’ views produces has a mind of its own, and as a conversable agent it meets the conditions for being fit to be held responsible: a significant choice, the capacity to judge its options normatively, and control over acting on that judgment

THEORY-497 — Proposed

A macro feature can supervene on a system’s present state and still carry information about its future that no small set of parts carries, because supervenience is instantaneous and prediction runs across time; on the integrated-information-decomposition account a system can host such a feature of order k exactly when its dynamics carry k-th-order synergy about their own future, relative to a fixed partition into parts and a chosen redundancy function

Two communicative realizations can agree on every probe in a restricted family without being structurally identical, so observational equivalence is relative to the probes, and only independently justified probes evaluated on held-out cases are evidence that structure was preserved

CLAIM-329 — Proposed

A collective that replaces all its members persists, when it does, by causal transmission of the organization that produces it, not by resemblance: an organization of the same kind that arises independently is not its continuation, and a lapse in its coherence need not end it

CLAIM-354 — Proposed

Freedom of will and autonomy come in degrees along several dimensions, among them viable reachability, control cost, robustness to disturbance, governance reconfigurability, revisability and motivational integration, and agents compare by inclusion of what they can viably reach under matched conditions: a partial order with incomparable pairs, not a scalar, and a gradient only of a declared measure

14 citations in 12 files await a look; 26 other citations of it are acknowledged.

CLAIM-437 — Proposed

‘Wanting’ and ‘liking’ are saliences relative to different, overlapping processes, pursuit and consummation, each ranking states by their bearing on its own concerns; valence is then relative to a perspective, every perspective in the negotiation has its own, the system’s valence is that of the perspective whose ordering is the negotiation’s potential, and ambivalence is strong saliences of opposite sign with no potential absorbing them

14 citations in 8 files await a look; 9 other citations of it are acknowledged.

CLAIM-446 — Proposed

Some persistent anxiety may be governance-maintained rather than belief-maintained: anticipated threat grants defensive processes authority over action, attention and evidence acquisition; under the avoidance that authority selects, the hypotheses that the situation is dangerous and that it is safe predict the same observation, so repeated safety need not correct the threat estimate; relief reinforces the defense without being evidence of danger; and the regime can outlast a corrected belief, its pathology, where present, being defensive authority insensitive to corrective evidence at avoidable cost

CLAIM-476 — Proposed

Beyond what it does operationally, luria is an apparatus in Barad’s constitutive sense for the objects of a record, and only for them: the record’s objects are constituted, and not only made referable and governable, by the distinctions its grammar enacts, so that the same authored material is a different set of objects under a revised apparatus, and the record’s own inquiry reconstitutes the apparatus that constitutes them

CLAIM-204 — Proposed

A communicative kind’s identity is grounded in its relational organization, for which competent participants’ uptake is the standard; statistical methods recover aspects of it from restricted observations; translation transports it; and what persists is what the receivers can still recover, of which the analyst can certify the independently identifiable part

CLAIM-427 — Superseded

Evidence for the organizational-perspective framework comes in three grades: that different organizations produce the same ordinary behaviour, that they respond differently to independently specified interventions, and that a model representing the coupling of significance, authority and reproduction predicts those responses better than the strongest existing alternatives at matched complexity; only the third bears on the framework’s defeater, and no grade counts if success is defined in the framework’s own terms

A candidate factor is an agent at a level when it is one system there, when a goal-directed description beats a device description by more than the Occam cost, and when its policy would adapt if its actions’ consequences changed; it is a willed agent when, further, a will-organization over several regimes describes it better than none, and what passes that is the jurisdiction of a will-organization

CLAIM-432 — Proposed

A corporation can be an agent fit to be held responsible and the bearer of functional affect in Frijda’s sense, so psychopathy’s affective features can be assigned to it as well as its conduct: it lacks remorse, functionally, when harm it does to others is not among the concerns its own appraisals track and gains precedence over what it does only when a regulator or a market turns it into a threat to the corporation’s concerns; that profile, threat without remorse, is the construct’s, and it is changed by redesigning the corporation’s concerns, not its members’ characters

CLAIM-355 — Proposed

In a distributed agent the binding of appraisal, readiness and governance into one response can be real while the single owner a self-model or collective self-description attributes it to is a representational construction, not a further entity; the illusion, where there is one, is in the attribution and belongs to whichever system adopts the representation, and this deflates the self without settling whether experience is real

CLAIM-445 — Proposed

A protective regime, in a person, an institution or a system of states, becomes self-maintaining when the interventions it authorizes shift the evidence used to judge its necessity, the authority and resources of those who judge it, the capacities of its constituents or the threat environment itself in ways that favour its continuation; this can happen when the original threat was real and the first protection apt, and it is a failure only where the regime has become less responsive to evidence that it is no longer needed

THEORY-895 — Proposed

Incentive sensitization: repeated drug exposure can make the mesolimbic ‘wanting’ system lastingly hyper-reactive to drug cues and contexts, so that cue-triggered incentive salience grows, persists for years and even increases during abstinence, while ‘liking’ need not rise and may fall; sensitized ‘wanting’ can oppose the person’s cognitive desire, and incentive salience can run without any reportable change in feeling

Nothing here is new but a question: planning theory, control theory, executive control and institutional theory already study every mechanism the account names, and where the account has been set beside the expected value of control and Ainslie’s interests it differs only in asking what governs how the driver changes rather than who drives, a question those mechanisms may answer without it

Relief of an organization’s frustration must be judged for an identified organization against a fixed reference set of its original demands, under an explicit correspondence between earlier and later demands: a demand excised or suppressed has changed the comparison and has not been satisfied, an endogenous revision of what the organization maintains is a transformation of it and not relief, and learning can change which processes bear the demands

Perceptual consciousness is global availability: a content becomes conscious when the activity it drives into a core of long-range hub neurons, prefrontal among them, crosses a threshold and ignites it, so that the network amplifies, sustains and broadcasts that one content to the specialised processors; below threshold it leaves a decaying wave and is not experienced

A converged network trained with SGD is not at a point and does not sample its training loss: under a quadratic approximation it samples a Gibbs distribution on a modified loss, isotropic in the Hessian’s column space, with probability currents that keep it oscillating, so its speed and spread are set by the learning rate, momentum and batch size

Non-domination of an agent’s subcomponents is a candidate constituent of authenticity as an organizational achievement, not a sufficient criterion of ownership: higher-level processes need not impose the outcome because the lower-level ones already support it or settle their disagreement among themselves, and a process that rarely decides keeps access to the roles in which it is consequential

CLAIM-433 — Proposed

The potential account of valence is an account of goal-conduciveness valence, not of intrinsic pleasantness: on the component process model’s separation of levels of valence, the ordering that prevails ranks states by need satisfaction and goal attainment, the potential’s strength tracks ‘wanting’ and its sign tracks goal conduciveness, while ‘liking’ is a separate appraisal with its own ordering; so the wanting–liking dissociation is two valence systems coming apart, as that separation predicts, and the objection that the account is not about pleasure is conceded rather than answered

When an organization’s record of winning moves cycles, the failure is organizational nonintegrability, distinct from a perspective’s own preference instability and from switching of the governing regime; it becomes organizational tension only when realized as costly reversal against demands the organization maintains, and cognitive dissonance only when that tension is detected and appraised as aversive; learning can relieve it by accommodation, by entrenched precedence or by cheap periodic coordination, which observed coherence does not tell apart, and ambivalence and nonintegrability entail neither one another

Valence intensity need not be the strength of the prevailing ordering’s potential: in Hesp et al.’s model negative valence is a weakening of the preference ordering’s precision with a fall back to habit, and positive affect is reported to lower a goal’s priority, so for either sign stronger valence can go with a weaker hold of the ordering

Organizational action can be described as pre-individual, so that whose action it is, a person’s or an organization’s, is an outcome of the individuations it is allowed to contribute to rather than a given; an action then has as many significations as the individuations it takes part in, and a person whose action is refused a collective’s recognition experiences that as disindividuation

Politics is more prone than markets to increasing returns, and so to path dependence, because it is dense with compulsory institutions and policies, rests on collective action and is opaque, so that institutions, collective action and shared interpretations of politics all feed back on themselves; and once on a path political actors leave it less readily than market actors, because competition and learning correct weakly, elected officials discount the future at the electoral cycle, and institutions are built to be hard to change

Flow tells against the potential account’s condition that valence is undefined where no pair is contested: on the record’s own account of flow nothing is overridden because an activity’s immediate reward and its longer-run value coincide, yet flow is reported as positive, so either flow’s positivity is intrinsic pleasantness and not goal-conduciveness valence, or flow keeps contested pairs its processes settle among themselves, or the positivity comes after the episode and not during it, or the condition is wrong

CLAIM-478 — Proposed

Scale separation helps make structure and not only marks it: where some degrees of freedom settle fast relative to others, the relation they settle into is a constraint on the system over the window between the two time scales, so what is a realization at one scale works as a constraint at another; and organization can make new separations in turn, as when modes slow near an instability and become order parameters, so time-scale hierarchies and constraints can produce one another

CLAIM-518 — Proposed

Normative judgments about an organization’s continuity, reform or obligations can depend on diachronic relations that descriptions of present states or terminal outcomes do not show, so specifying the relevant relations and histories can be necessary to apply them adequately; which continuations ought to follow is a further normative question, not a prerequisite of every normative judgment

CLAIM-523 — Proposed

For a normatively relevant discrepancy to change what an organization does, three distinct achievements are needed and any can fail while the others hold: legibility, by which the discrepancy becomes recognizable; volitional efficacy, by which a corresponding demand can move action; and correctability, by which a fitting revision can be carried out within deadline and resources; none establishes that the demand or the revision is justified, and whether the norm-satisfying histories the agent can still realize are empty depends partly on what its earlier actions destroyed

Describing persons and organizations as coexisting levels of one process removes the question of how already-constituted agents add up to a collective, but not the question of levels: whether a collective variable has dynamics of its own, closed against the activity that realizes it, can be decided on a process description that presupposes no agents, is sometimes decided no, and a closed collective variable can be an aggregate that coexists with its realization while keeping none of its members’ distinctions

Because the returns to exploitation are surer, nearer and closer to the decision than the returns to exploration, organizational learning refines exploitation faster and tends to become self-destructive in the long run; and where an organizational code learns only from members who deviate from it, slow socialization, a mix of slow and fast learners and moderate turnover raise what the organization knows, while without turnover a changing environment degrades its knowledge to chance

An organization can be governed from outside without any of its decisions being made for it, through the evidence its own procedures receive or through the criteria by which they weigh evidence; the two routes are distinct and each is possible without the other, so informational and evaluative independence do not imply each other; and where the organization’s role is to evaluate another that affects its evidence or resources, the interpretation–authority loop can close between the two institutions, so that formal independence of the evaluator’s procedure does not make its evaluation independent

An ordering serving as the negotiation’s potential, as the potential account of valence defines it, tracks ‘wanting’, not ‘liking’: sensitized incentive salience wins a system’s conflicts, persists and resumes while hedonic impact measured by taste reactivity stays flat or falls, so the regime the account calls hedonic valence is motivational valence, and hedonic valence, if it is anywhere in the account, is elsewhere

A replicator dynamic on the distribution of authority among an organization’s processes is the special case of the meaning–authority–legibility model in which the organization’s interpretation is the authority-weighted mixture of its processes’ and evidence reaches scoring without a maintained regime of its own; the replicator tools (Bayesian reading, potential and harmonic games, stochastic stability) then apply, and the record’s separate interpretation and legibility states earn their place exactly where interpretation departs from that mixture or legibility keeps a memory of past authority

Model-based wanting is a pursuit process’s ranking of the futures it predicts under candidate interventions, P(S | do(a)) against P(S | do(a₀)), while cue-triggered wanting is learned salience that need not compute those futures; a process’s causal model, its wanting and its practical efficacy are separable, so learning to want differently, learning that a want will not pay, and learning not to act on it are three different changes

CLAIM-474 — Proposed

From interconnection to individuation, the relationships are distinct achievements that form a partial order, not a nested sequence: none implies the next, and a later one need not require every earlier one. Interconnection fixes what joint behaviour is possible, compatibility which local descriptions admit a coherent whole, dynamics which organizations persist, individuation which have sufficiently robust identity and boundaries, organizational autonomy which help maintain their own constitutive constraints, and inquiry which can measure and revise their own models and apparatuses under resource bounds, inquiry and reconstruction occurring without autonomy. The research program is to find the conditions for each, and their dependencies, apart from the order in which an inquiry meets them

CLAIM-512 — Proposed

The diachronic thesis faces two objections: a dilemma, that read narrowly it fails for judgments not about any organization’s continuation, such as that suffering is bad, and read broadly every judgment is met vacuously as a preference between continuations unless the organizational description adds causal specificity, transfer or counterfactual discrimination; and a distinction, that evaluating a history is not prescribing its continuation, so a judgment can be determinate with no future transformation fixed

Generative entrenchment does not by itself give organizational closure: an entrenched core, which later interactions depend on so that perturbing it is catastrophic and perturbing them tolerable, can sit at the root of an acyclic dependency order, and where interactions turn over such an order persists only while something outside supplies its core; an organization that is both entrenched and closed has a core containing a cycle of mutual maintenance, each interaction on which is itself core unless its share of the maintenance is redundant

QUESTION-245 — Answered

For linear decisions at the population level, if a kind’s admissible transformations are given as a distribution over pairs of its realizations, is the top eigenspace of the pair operator a stable, decision-sufficient span, and what span takes that role when the pairs are directed?

concept, as realized by an organization: a reusable, systematically consequential pattern of distinctions, applicable across a stated range of contexts with inferential or operational consequences; distinct from the feature or representation that carries it, from the organization that realizes it, and from what it is about, and distinct from conceptual corrigibility, the further capacity to find and revise its inadequacies

THEORY-025 — Proposed

Neither utility information nor resource holdings, alone or together, can register claims that arise from how differently people convert resources into what they can do and be: equal resources leave unequal capabilities, and utility adapts to deprivation

THEORY-080 — Proposed

In a linearised network with a Gaussian prior on its parameters, the Occam factor is a sum over the NTK’s eigenvalues, so on spherical data each harmonic pays ½ log(1 + βnµ_k/α) and the kernel’s eigenvalue decay schedules the complexity penalty across frequencies

THEORY-091 — Proposed

A deficit in which consciousness and a capacity are lost together does not show that the capacity is a function of phenomenal consciousness, since access is lost too and the capacity is one the machinery of access has

THEORY-1276 — Proposed

In Simondon’s ontology, as his organization-studies readers take it, information is not a signal transmitted between finished entities but a disparity between two differently ordered domains of a metastable system, and its meaning is the new structure that transduction produces in resolving it

THEORY-1277 — Proposed

Persons and organizations can be described not as successive stages, with the collective built up from individuals, but as coexisting levels of ordering through which one action propagates, each preserving its components; on that description the problem of scaling up from individual to organizational action does not arise

THEORY-1280 — Proposed

Agency can be redescribed without agents, as the affective force by which one individuation process takes up another’s excess action in a communicative event and both pass from a lesser to an augmented ability to act; agents are then effects of such events, and the absence of the force is disindividuation

THEORY-153 — Proposed

A system can keep its identity independently within a shared environment only if it has five interacting subsystems, the first made of elements that are themselves viable systems, so that the structure recurs at every level of recursion; when one is missing or fails, the system degrades in characteristic ways, and without the subsystem for foresight the subsystems for operational control and for identity collapse into each other, leaving a system that can only react

THEORY-217 — Proposed

A trait malfunctions when its operation does not correlate positively with the normative field, the minimum change its organization’s viability requires at each precarious state; malfunction needs no second order of regulatory norms, and regulatory traits can malfunction by the same standard

THEORY-411 — Proposed

In Sen’s capability approach the weighting of functionings is left to public reasoning, and evaluation can still guide action without agreement on weights: where every weighting in an agreed range, or every view by its own argument, ranks one option above another, that ranking holds, so the approach is deliberately incomplete and yields a partial ordering

THEORY-564 — Proposed

A bounded generative model can learn its own structure with no machinery beyond inference and learning: spare hidden-state slots with flat likelihoods get filled when an observation fits none of the learned causes, and Bayesian model reduction on the learned prior over states can return unneeded slots, though in a toy concept-learning task it recovers the true number of causes in only 45–80% of runs with four to seven causes, and never with two or three, unless the likelihood is given

THEORY-577 — Proposed

Our judgments that consciousness poses a hard problem are behaviour, so explaining them is an easy problem that can be solved without mentioning consciousness; and a theory that names a mechanism as the basis of consciousness owes an account of how that mechanism produces those judgments, which IIT and biological theories struggle to give, since a functional duplicate with zero integrated information, or in silicon, would make the same reports

THEORY-614 — Proposed

If pretraining text is a mixture of hidden Markov models indexed by a latent concept and a model fits that distribution exactly, then a prompt of concatenated examples moves the posterior onto the prompt’s concept, and the in-context predictor becomes Bayes-optimal as examples accumulate, whenever each example’s evidence for the concept outweighs the cost of the improbable transitions between examples; whether trained networks learn in context this way is not shown

THEORY-625 — Proposed

Institutional facts are status functions, imposed by collective acceptance on things that cannot perform the function by their physical structure alone; the status carries deontic powers that give desire-independent reasons for action, and it exists only as represented, so institutions require language; ‘X counts as Y in C’ is the common case of the more general ‘We accept (S has power (S does A))’

THEORY-663 — Proposed

Altruism between non-relatives can be selected when each act costs the giver less than it benefits the recipient, the same partners meet often and symmetrically, and help is withheld from those who do not return it; in humans, moralistic aggression, gratitude, sympathy and guilt are adaptations that regulate such exchange, and selection then favours sham versions of each and the ability to detect them

THEORY-703 — Proposed

Weak emergence of a macro variable from micro variables can be measured as its Granger autonomy from them times their mean Granger causation of it, which is zero if it is independent of them or fully predicted by them; in a boids model this measure, and Granger causation from the flock’s centre of mass to each boid, are higher for flocking than for random or rigid motion; the measure is relative to the regression model and the variables included

THEORY-882 — Proposed

Consciousness in an inferring system requires three things: a unified generative model of its world; entry to that model by a precision-weighted competition that coherent inferences win; and epistemic depth, the recursive sharing of the model back through the hierarchy, carried by a hyper-model that predicts and sets precision at every level; awareness then varies with epistemic depth, not with the richness of contents, and a first-person perspective, a self-model and agency are not required

CLAIM-186 — Proposed

CLAIM-191 — Proposed

Restating an argument across memoryless sessions is iterated transport with only a weak channel back to the source: without anchors, restatements drift toward the collaborators’ own framings rather than at random, and a code restores continuity of transmission

CLAIM-255 — Proposed

Intending to perform an act, performing it and being recognized as having performed it are distinct, coupled variables: intended meaning is fixed at production, the act partly by roles, standing and norms, and recognition by uptake, so competent uptake is constitutive for some acts, evidential for others and irrelevant to the existence of still others

CLAIM-336 — Proposed

The pragmatic-transport and will-organization lines describe one model, an organization of operators that act on a shared interpretive state under a context while allocating one another’s influence: a frame is the context under which operators act, a judgement is the response they yield, an action-generating regime is an operator or coalition, and a will-organization is the dynamics that allocates influence among them

CLAIM-442 — Proposed

Frijda’s emotion and the potential account’s system valence sit on opposite sides of the gap between the precedence a motive claims and the authority it is granted: an emotion, action readiness claiming control precedence, is a claim, a perspective’s valence is read on its claims, and the system’s valence is read on what the negotiation grants, so a change in grants with the claims fixed, as mindfulness is said to make, changes the system’s valence and leaves the perspectives’ emotions and valences as they were

CLAIM-525 — Proposed

Information in the sense the Simondonian readings give it, a disparity whose resolution reorders the system that takes it up, is in the line’s terms a change in the interpreter or in the questions receivers can decide, not evidence about a fixed situation, so Blackwell’s order leaves it out by construction and the two accounts are not rivals

4 citations in 4 files await a look; 1 other citation of it is acknowledged.

CLAIM-527 — Proposed

Viable reach, valence and emotion are three quantities in an organization, not one: an emotion is a claim to precedence, system valence is movement along the ordering that wins the negotiation, and a change in what the organization can viably reach is neither, so an organization can run ahead along its prevailing ordering while its viable reach contracts

CLAIM-528 — Proposed

That a mechanism realizes a capacity can mean that the capacity is produced through it over time or that the capacity consists in it at a time, and interventions show only the first: a pathway whose disabling changes the capacity after a delay is a cause, can be intervened on surgically, and can be located relative to a declared boundary, whereas every intervention on a capacity that consists in its parts also changes some part along another path, so that relation is underdetermined by intervention data and is inferred by abduction or from simultaneity and settled parthood; and which of the two a given dependence is depends on the time resolution at which a description treats the parts’ response as instantaneous

Constitution is best inferred, and only abductively, from the failure to break a coupling: a set of parts constitutes a phenomenon when every cause of the phenomenon is also a cause of some member of the set, no smaller set does as much, and no expansion of the variables studied turns up a cause of the phenomenon that spares them all, so constitutive relevance is fixed by the set a part belongs to and no finite series of experiments settles it

When a firm, public service or other organization deteriorates, its members’ exit and voice are both recuperation mechanisms: voice carries richer information than exit and can be felt as a benefit rather than a cost, exit can be costly even without loyalty and can signal nothing, loyalty makes members voice rather than exit, and an organization needs floor levels of both for feedback but disintegrates or is disrupted beyond ceiling levels, while its managers may favour whichever response least threatens their hold on power

Ventromedial prefrontal cortex stores links between kinds of situation and the body states they produced, and re-enacting those states when an option is imagined marks it good or bad, overtly as a feeling or covertly as a bias, pruning the options before reasoning weighs them; without the marks, choice under uncertainty fails despite intact knowledge and intellect

Phenomenal consciousness is the coherent functioning of an embodied agent’s generative model of its sensorium, coherent in space, time and cause and run either coupled to sense data (perception) or decoupled from it (imagination); embodied grounding, the model’s capacity to inform and be informed by action–perception cycles at behavioural timescales and the history of such coupling by which it was learned, is necessary, so that integrated information or a functional global workspace without it does not suffice

ARG-051 — Proposed

Mind-wandering, read as Metzinger reads it, is an individual-scale case in which a capacity the agent keeps, veto over its own mental processes, loses and regains efficacy through a change in a condition of efficacy and not in the competing processes, so it is a further instance of the conditions of efficacy governing which regime acts, the first in the record for suspension in one mind

Repeated reconstruction is attraction toward conventional regions of communicative possibility: pragmatic stances, not only lexicon and grammar, can be stabilized by transmission

3 citations in 2 files await a look; 38 other citations of it are acknowledged.

CLAIM-078 — Proposed

The theory succeeds if its observational and decision measures predict changes of communicative identity that text similarity misses and follow its compositional predictions across reconstructions; it needs neither quantum contextuality nor exact Noether laws

A term’s value, as distinct from its signification, is fixed by its contrasts with the coexisting terms of its system

CLAIM-087 — Proposed

Cross-modal reconstruction often improves a receiver’s access to an implicit communicative relation beyond the text-only baseline, as when posture or expression conveys solidarity better than the source text’s literal content, though a rendering made without the situation is a garbling and cannot improve what an ideal receiver could do

A translation can reach pragmatic equivalence by compensating for changed social coordinates with changed linguistic ones, so lexical infidelity can be required for pragmatic fidelity

CLAIM-134 — Proposed

A non-eliminative structural realism that keeps relata but denies them any intrinsic identity-fixing feature is the position Chakravartty’s dilemma targets, and granting numerical plurality without relational differentiation, as A194 and A198 do, concedes a non-relational ground of identity

CLAIM-137 — Proposed

A communicative kind is identified by an invariant that does not depend on any one realization, as a group character identifies a representation up to isomorphism, once one symmetry group is identified across the realizations by its action on the situation and not by labels of a medium, so that invariant has classificatory priority over any particular realization

CLAIM-200 — Superseded

The procedure-level fidelity thesis’s title says observational fidelity is not defined for a single rendering of a single item, which is more than it shows: one source–target pair does not identify the procedure-level score, and a single rendering can still be judged, as a sample of its procedure or by another measure stated as such, as its own body says

3 citations in 3 files await a look; 6 other citations of it are acknowledged.

CLAIM-201 — Proposed

Over a fixed scenario, a change of global compatibility at small local distortion needs contextual judgements, which the behavioural data read so far lack; the form of the headline those data leave open is a change of cover, in which a rendering makes some of the source’s questions undecidable for its readers and decides others the source left open

CLAIM-202 — Proposed

What the line adds to functional and relevance-theoretic accounts of translation is measured structure beyond a static pragmatic profile: the context-indexed profile, its response to later framings and its decision relevance predict receivers’ recovery beyond the similarity of static stance and footing ratings

3 citations in 2 files await a look; 9 other citations of it are acknowledged.

CLAIM-314 — Proposed

Reusing a filed argument has a recognition cost that a fixed per-use price leaves out: certifying that stored answers cover a new question is NP-complete even for conjunctive queries, grows with the number and size of the stored definitions rather than being a constant per item, and is undefined for an item filed without a statement of what it answers, so each filing raises the cost of later reuse and per-item break-even decisions are not independent

CLAIM-317 — Proposed

Self-presentations that differ by audience do no harm while the audiences are kept apart; people keep them apart and script the occasions where they must meet, and broadcast and networked media bring them together unchosen, which is when the presentations collide

CLAIM-332 — Proposed

A loosely organized population can change what an outside institution does through its members’ separately motivated acts of making, selecting and passing things on, without forming a collective intention or judgment, when the organized pattern of those acts, and not only the acts of identifiable individuals, earns its place in explaining the change

3 citations in 2 files await a look; 14 other citations of it are acknowledged.

CLAIM-431 — Proposed

A corporation’s functional remorse cannot be told from prudence: any procedure or role duty that makes others’ harms its concern was put there for its own ends, reputation, liability or recruitment, so the line between harm as concern and harm as threat, and with it the line between a remorseful and a psychopathic corporation, does not hold, and the clinical word adds nothing to a description of its incentives

Compensation is not only a re-performance notion: for a reader whose code gives the literal word a meaning the source lacked, the compensating rendering can be the more faithful report, so assigning compensation to re-performance alone needs narrowing

CLAIM-472 — Proposed

Because an apparatus makes some distinctions determinate and leaves others unstatable, choosing and maintaining one is open to evaluation and not only to verification; but that a cut excludes something fixes no obligation, since every distinction excludes, and which exclusions matter is a judgment indexed to a standard, a scale and those affected

CLAIM-519 — Proposed

Competent behaviour does not establish an internal world model: over a fixed interface and a finite horizon, an agent with no model, whose actions are looked up from the history so far, reproduces the interaction distribution of an agent that has one exactly; a policy can identify predictive structure without any particular internal component realizing it, so compression and generalization support comparing candidate architectures, and establishing an internal mechanism needs evidence that discriminates candidate implementations, such as targeted interventions

Under active inference, the contents of consciousness are posterior beliefs about the hidden states of world, body or brain, and a posterior is conscious when it has the capacity to inform discrete, counterfactual policy selection, at a timescale slow enough to abstract from sensory flux and with enough precision to tell alternatives apart; on this account no conscious content changes without a change in the posterior, and a stimulus given precision by an attention or saccade policy should reach awareness sooner than a retinally matched one

Identifying how governing rules are maintained from diagnostic probes: a predictor fitted under reciprocal production fails under self-dependent production with histories matched, an audit pulse with a short producer interruption identifies which of four known mechanisms applies and predicts withheld interventions, and fitting decay and threshold as well helps after the parameters shift and hurts at nominal ones, within a known catalog and with every probe run on a counterfactual reset

A transport that approximately intertwines each framing operation approximately preserves their commutator, so the degree to which interpretive perspectives interfere can itself be part of what a translation preserves; on observed responses that degree is the order effect, which the intertwining defects bound only with a readout defect added and which the data identify only through observational distortion

World-modeling is a family of resource-bounded capabilities for producing and using predictions about an environment’s possibilities and consequences, each relative to a declared family of questions; a world model in the representational sense is one possible realization of them, competent behaviour can determine environmental structure without identifying any internal mechanism, and producing, maintaining and revising world-modeling capabilities are further achievements, not prerequisites of agency in general

Kane answers the luck objection by making indeterminism a hindrance inside goal-directed effort rather than a cause on its own: in a self-forming action the agent makes two competing efforts, each meeting the indeterminacy as interference from the other, so whichever succeeds is a willed success for which the agent is responsible; indeterminism lessens the agent’s control but not its responsibility, and what responsibility needs is macro-control of processes involving many neurons, not control of each

THEORY-143 — Proposed

When a group learns only about the options its members pursue and good evidence is scarce, sparser communication makes it more likely to settle on the better option, at a large cost in speed; when evidence is plentiful, sparsity only slows learning

2 citations in 1 file await a look; 24 other citations of it are acknowledged.

THEORY-147 — Proposed

Deep responsibility is not limited to the moral, and attributability and accountability are independent kinds of it rather than two levels: accountability needs only that the agent acted as she ought not to, was in a position to know it, and that acting so was up to her, while what makes a self a fit target of the reactive attitudes is plausibly that it can perceive, understand and appreciate the world as we do

THEORY-148 — Proposed

A group learning by trying needs diversity in what its members pursue that lasts long enough to survive misleading early evidence and then gives way to consensus; limited communication and stubborn priors each supply it, and together they make it permanent, so the group never settles

THEORY-199 — Proposed

In data generated by a random hierarchical grammar, the Bayes-optimal denoiser recovers the top-level class only below a threshold noise, which becomes sharp as the tree deepens and exists only when the grammar uses a small enough fraction of possible tuples (branching times that fraction below one), while low-level features degrade smoothly with noise and so survive past the threshold

On sparse hierarchical data, deep networks become insensitive to swapping synonymous parts and to small displacements of informative features at the training-set size at which they learn the task

2 citations in 1 file await a look; 7 other citations of it are acknowledged.

THEORY-201 — Proposed

In next-token prediction on hierarchically generated sequences, the correlation between two tokens falls by about a factor m per level of their common ancestor, so a training set of P sequences resolves correlations only out to a distance t*(P) at which they meet sampling noise; learners come to represent the hidden symbols up to that depth, giving loss steps at about v m^(2ℓ−1) examples, and on character-level text the context at which the loss saturates grows as P^(1/(2β)) with β the measured correlation decay

THEORY-203 — Proposed

In data generated by a random hierarchical grammar, the tokens that Bayes-optimal noising and denoising changes do so in blocks set by the depth of the latent that changed, and the block size, measured as the correlation length of the changes, diverges at the noise threshold where the top-level class is lost, as a power of the distance to it whose exponent is log(branching) over log(slope of the level-to-level belief map at its unstable fixed point); a Gaussian field with power-law spectrum has instead a correlation length of changes that grows with noise to the end of the process

THEORY-207 — Proposed

Responsibility for a morally loaded outcome that emerges from morally neutral interactions in a network of agents can be allocated without fault or intention, by default and overridably, in full to every causally accountable node, and a rule so allocating it, made common knowledge, works as a corrective that prevents such outcomes

THEORY-212 — Proposed

In a two-layer linear network trained by gradient flow, the relative scale of the two layers, which gradient flow conserves, sets the learning regime: balanced layers learn in sigmoidal stages and both build task-specific representations, while strongly unbalanced layers learn exponentially with a static kernel and leave the larger layer task-agnostic

THEORY-286 — Proposed

Under class imbalance the last-layer geometry that unregularized cross-entropy prefers is not the simplex ETF but simplex-encoded-label interpolation: the logits equal the simplex-encoded labels, the classifier and embedding Gram matrices come from that matrix’s SVD, any finite weight decay changes the geometry, and training approaches it more slowly as imbalance grows

THEORY-339 — Proposed

People’s answers to a probability query depend on their own answers to an earlier query whose result it can use: a person’s sub-answer predicts their later answer only when asked first, and a bias induced in a first judgment carries into a second only when the two share part of a hypothesis space, so reuse carries the earlier error with it; that reuse saves computation rests on one small response-time study and one secondary-task result

THEORY-440 — Proposed

A democracy that breaks down under an elected incumbent need not become a dictatorship: elections, courts and a legal opposition can continue while the incumbent uses state power against opponents and tilts the field, giving competitive authoritarianism, in which competition is real but unfair and the decisive loss is the opposition that withdraws or never forms; Levitsky and Way forecast this for the second Trump term

THEORY-454 — Proposed

THEORY-570 — Proposed

An emotional state is a large-scale selection of mental resources, switched on and off by Selectors that Critics trigger on recognising a type of problem, and so of the same kind as an intellectual way to think; feelings are the mind’s descriptions of these cascades, and the body is one more resource the brain uses, not the substance of emotion

THEORY-626 — Proposed

Moral judgments are made relative to the social relationship an act is taken to occur within: each of four relational models (communal sharing, authority ranking, equality matching, market pricing) carries a moral motive (Unity, Hierarchy, Equality, Proportionality), so the same act can be required under one and wrong under another

THEORY-868 — Proposed

The structuralist methods and evidence in consciousness science support only that experiences have structure or stand in relations to other experiences, not that an experience is nothing but its relations; the stronger, metaphysical thesis implies that relational knowledge fixes what an experience is like, that every new experience changes all the others, and that a system with a single experience is impossible, and each consequence is doubtful

THEORY-872 — Proposed

A self-model compresses the sensory effects of a system’s own activity by positing one stable common cause, at fast and slow timescales; there is such a pattern in the signal, so the self is real as a pattern and unreal as a substance, and realists and anti-realists about selves who accept this agree on the facts and differ on the criterion of reality

2 citations in 1 file await a look; 4 other citations of it are acknowledged.

THEORY-880 — Proposed

The specific phenomenal character of an experience is fixed by its place in a quality space, the structure of all the discriminations a sensory system can make, and that structure is mirrored many-to-one in neural feature maps; whether the state is conscious at all is left to a separate general mechanism; so experiences are holistic, a change anywhere in the space can change every experience in it, and spectrum inversion is excluded actually by the asymmetry of colour space and nomologically by its ties to the other senses

Departments of the French Empire more shielded from British trade by the Napoleonic blockade added more mechanized cotton-spinning capacity during it and kept a larger industry through 1887, with more productive spinning firms in 1840 and higher industrial value added per capita in 1860 but not detectably from 1896

In a multi-agent system run against a world utility, a private utility is factored, ranking each agent’s own alternatives with the others fixed as the world utility ranks them, exactly when it is an increasing function of the world utility given the components the agent cannot affect; the world utility minus its value with the agent’s effect set clamped is factored, and in a sixty-agent bar problem clamping to the average action learned better than clamping to absence or using the world utility itself

Whether a coupled oscillator sustains its own rhythm or is a damped oscillator driven from outside is settled directly by removing the drive, and, because the two arrangements are not dynamically equivalent, may also show in how they respond to a shift of phase: in Leise and Siegelmann’s model, damped peripheral clocks regain their phase relation to the central clock quickly, while self-sustained ones take longer, need strong coupling, and sometimes resynchronize by a long delay instead of an advance

THEORY-141 — Proposed

In a major evolutionary transition, where formerly free-living units come to form a higher-level unit, the collective is stable only if selection between collectives comes to trump selection among the units within them, typically through mechanisms such as policing, kinship and division of labour that align the interests of the units; the levels at which selection acts are then a product of evolution, to be explained rather than assumed

THEORY-145 — Proposed

Organizations that espouse revising their governing values characteristically fail to, because the theory-in-use people actually act on keeps premises tacit and tests self-sealing, and the resulting defensive routines make the inconsistency, and its undiscussability, undiscussable; so errors are corrected within the governing values (single-loop) while the values themselves go unexamined

A rank-limited contrastive word embedding trained from small initialisation learns the top eigenvectors of the co-occurrence matrix’s relative deviation from independence, one at a time in order of eigenvalue, not the best low-rank approximation of its unconstrained optimum

THEORY-186 — Proposed

A deep linear network trained from small weights learns the singular modes of its input–output correlations one at a time in order of strength, each in a sharp sigmoidal transition, while a shallow network learns them all together; the stages come from the product of layers and the data’s spectrum, not from nonlinearity

THEORY-221 — Proposed

Organizational closure is a circular organization of efficient causes by which a system produces the conditions of its own existence, distinct from feedback, self-organization and catalytic cycles; systems whose loops do not regenerate the constraints that make them possible approximate closure without instantiating it

THEORY-249 — Proposed

Whether a system has agency can be settled only relative to a reference frame: each of four conditions of agency (a boundary, being the source of action, meaningful goal-directedness and adaptivity) needs a commitment outside the system before it can be decided

THEORY-330 — Proposed

After a forced phase in which each person experienced every memory load from three to nine items, the load that had given that person the best reward rate predicted their later choices better than one item fewer or one more, in a copying task where items are seen once and cannot be looked up again; a steeper reward for long lists raised chosen load, a higher price for errors did not, and about one person in five kept choosing a non-optimal load

THEORY-343 — Proposed

In laboratory choice tasks, people offload cognition more as a task’s internal demand rises, but the choice follows their evaluation of the demand rather than its benefit: they offload where it gives no gain and more when less confident at equal ability, and offloading can lower memory for what was offloaded

THEORY-351 — Proposed

In a two-pilot airliner cockpit, setting the approach speeds as bugs on the airspeed indicators, prepared 25 to 30 minutes ahead in a low-workload phase from a card selected by the displayed gross weight, turns recall and scale reading at the moment of use into a judgement of spatial proximity, so the cockpit system remembers the speeds without either pilot’s memory being improved; this is argued by task analysis of mandated procedure, not measured

THEORY-355 — Proposed

Agents arrange their surroundings so that perception and choice take the place of internal search, changing how much thinking a task needs without changing what can physically be done; the set-up is paid once and recovered over the later choice points the arrangement serves, so an arrangement whose scope is the whole task can repay a large set-up and a narrow one must repay within the next few actions, and the arrangement decays unless maintained; the savings are argued and piloted, not measured

Cognitive mechanisms can be derived as the one, among those a brain can execute, that best trades the expected utility of its result against the opportunity cost of the time and resources it uses; the review shows the derivation reproducing many heuristics and biases, not that people are optimal, and the objective is per episode

THEORY-414 — Proposed

Institutions are rules in equilibrium, correlated equilibria of coordination games with several equilibria that the players represent to themselves as rules, and a constitutive rule ‘X counts as Y in C’ is a regulative rule split by a coined term into a base rule and a status rule, so the term adds a name and cognitive economy but no new kind of fact

In Lévi-Straussian analysis of myth the group of transformations is not given by the material: which variants count as transforms of which, and by what operation, is cut by the analyst from a continuum, unlike transformations that develop an initial form by a rule, and the computational encodings of the method confirm this by taking the analyst’s table of oppositions as input

Platform decay of the enshittification kind is caused not by a change in the character of those who run platforms but by the weakening of four constraints that used to discipline them, competition, regulation, interoperability and the bargaining power of tech workers, so it is reversible if those constraints are durably restored

If continuant persons are maximal aggregates of person-stages interrelated by the psychological relation R, then the relation of belonging to one person is R itself, so Parfit’s premises do not show that identity is not what matters; the price is that persons overlap in fission and are counted by a relation weaker than identity

THEORY-487 — Proposed

Social ontology asks two separable questions about a social category: what grounds a fact of that kind, the conditions something must meet, and what anchors those conditions, the facts that put them in place; theories of the field, such as convention, collective acceptance and practice, answer the second, and a theory can be individualist about one and not the other

THEORY-518 — Proposed

If a word’s meaning in a distributional model is read differentially, as its relations to its nearest neighbours rather than its coordinates, then adding text moves every similarity value slightly but leaves the neighbourhoods of frequent, consistently used words intact and shifts those of rare words that the new text uses heavily, so the instability that holism implies is local and graded rather than total

THEORY-520 — Proposed

When coordination between two autonomous agents and the continuation of their encounter shape each other, the interaction gains an autonomy of its own, a precarious self-sustaining organization that lasts only while both agents stay autonomous; coordinating movement then coordinates sense-making, so some social understanding, such as recognising a partner, is a property of the interaction’s dynamics and not of either individual

When a President can end a funding lapse selectively, paying the parts of government he favours from funds named by no appropriation, a shutdown stops checking him and instead hands him the choice of what to fund; each payment left unchallenged becomes a precedent, and a Speaker who lets it stand gives up his own chamber’s power of the purse

THEORY-536 — Proposed

A group agent’s attitudes are real and non-redundant: each group belief needs members’ role-based acceptance, by assent in the group’s name or by acting on it in an executive role, but that acceptance does not explain or reduce the group belief, because which members’ acceptance counts, and that it plays the role of belief, is fixed only from the group-level view

THEORY-538 — Proposed

A system believes and desires when its behaviour is reliably and voluminously predictable by treating it as a rational agent with the beliefs and desires it ought to have, and the success of that strategy is an objective fact though adopting it is free; the more richly a system is connected to its world, the fewer interpretations fit, so thermostat and person differ in degree

On the grounds of moral standing now commonly accepted, together with scientific premises that are not unreasonable, the aggregate interests of insects or the interests of near-future AI could outweigh humanity’s; no capacity yet proposed secures human priority, and the books that state those grounds retreat to moderate advice without a principle that supplies the stopping point

In REST2 replica-exchange simulations of intrinsically disordered proteins, high swap acceptance and short round trips show that replicas mix along the temperature ladder, not that conformations are sampled, because the upper rungs collapse the chain; sampling shows only when independent demultiplexed replicas agree in their structural distributions

THEORY-621 — Proposed

Indexing each quantum fact to the system it is a fact for, and computing probabilities only between facts relative to the same system, removes the contradiction between the collapse and unitary probability rules in Wigner’s-friend cases; the price is that values are not held at all times or by all systems alike, there is no global view, and no quantum state of the universe

THEORY-666 — Proposed

A system that produces itself, a network of production that regenerates the components which produce it and constitute it as a distinguishable unity, has by that fact an intrinsic purpose, the maintenance of its identity, and with it a point of view, valence and a world as distinct from an environment, so that teleology in organisms is real and not an observer’s as-if; the account is stated for the cell, and a multicellular organism is not itself autopoietic

THEORY-687 — Proposed

For empirically equivalent dual theories read naively, adding the common core as a candidate world does not break the underdetermination, and neither do super-empirical virtues or an overarching theory: each route to a single actual world needs a further metaphysical principle, such as the identity of indiscernibles

THEORY-690 — Proposed

In the physical dualities examined, theoretically inequivalent duals turn out empirically inequivalent, so dualities yield no genuine in-principle underdetermination; where duals would contradict each other a cautious realist is warranted in committing only to their common core, and because the exact cases’ common cores are rich rather than empty, dualities give no support to structural realism

THEORY-699 — Proposed

Adaptive self-maintenance across varied conditions is sufficient, without sentience, for having a good of one’s own, so insentient plants and a self-maintaining machine are welfare subjects while thermostats are not; but the line against thermostats is argued as one of degree, and the reasons such welfare gives are extremely weak

THEORY-867 — Proposed

The geometry of the colour similarity space does not mark the four unique hues, nor the difference between the black–white axis, along which every grey is a mixture of both ends, and the opponent axes, along which each half shows only one end; so a structuralism on which phenomenal character is fixed by similarity relations alone cannot account for how colour experiences are composed

Phenomenal binding of the parts of an experience can be modelled as agreement, on overlaps, of measured similarity structures assigned to the parts by a presheaf, and the broad quale is fixed by its parts exactly when that presheaf is a sheaf; a sheaf failure may mark disunity, as proposed for binocular rivalry, or context dependence within one unified experience, as in the Ebbinghaus illusion, and the framework does not yet say which

THEORY-877 — Proposed

Learning a generative model of sensory data extracts real patterns in Dennett’s sense, so the manifest image is a structural description of the sensory signal, constrained by its external source but silent on what realizes the structure; two subjects whose sensory streams match, one envatted, therefore have equally veridical manifest images, and what differs between them, the realizers, lies outside what perception can represent

Representing a sensory quality, even in the distinctively sensory way, does not make there be something it is like for the subject to have it: a quality can occur unnoticed, as for an absent-minded driver, so what it is like to experience a quality is a further property that needs awareness, and a representational theory of sensory qualities leaves open what makes a state experienced

Culture shapes action less by setting its ends than by supplying a repertoire of skills, habits and styles from which people build strategies of action, so strategies outlast the ends they serve; in settled periods culture constrains through the cost of retooling, while in unsettled periods explicit ideologies govern action directly but structural opportunities decide which of the competing ideologies survive

In simulations of the two imitation protocols, populations small enough to be finite often settle on a suboptimal option because pure imitation can remove a type entirely, and once settled the protocols give no way to re-explore when the environment changes; variants in which members compare quality estimates converge faster than blind weighted voting, at the cost of more communication and comparison

Perceptual constancies are invariants of transformations that act within experience, not only of physical transformations or planar projections, since perceived shape and depth match no linear projection and the transformations can be realized with no physical change; on Isaac’s structuralist account, after Cassirer, it is these invariants, co-present in experience with the varying appearances they abstract from, that make experience represent an objective world and so distinguish subject from object

Codes that resolve to no document

A reference the reader cannot follow: the code names no document in this record. A typo, a number carried in from another project, and an illustrative code in an example all look identical from here — telling them apart takes a human, so this is a report, not an error.

4 codes unaccounted for. Not listed: 5 mentions marked deliberate with an unresolved-ok: comment (same syntax and scopes as inactive-ok: above).

DP-016 — resolves to nothing (5 unmarked sites)

Temporary codes this record does not mint

A temporary code belongs to the contribution that created it, and only that contribution can cite it safely. One cited here with no document behind it is another branch’s — it resolves for as long as both are open, and stops the moment the other merges and its code is numbered. The trunk never sees the spelling this record wrote down.

0 codes not minted here. Not listed: 0 mentions marked deliberate with an unresolved-ok: comment — an illustrative code in an example is the usual one.

Every temporary code cited here is this record’s own. ✅

Files that opt out of reference checking

unlinted-file: exempts a whole document from the reference machinery — the blunt tool for a fixture-heavy or vendored page. It is counted here rather than hidden, the same bargain as an acknowledgement: the report stays a complete account of what nobody is checking.
