Stathis, Bruno,
This summary sounds fine if I accept to 'let words go'. Is there a way to
'understand' (=use with comprehension) the 'words' used here without the
'technical' acceptance of the theoretical platform?
There are sacrosanct 'words' used without explaining them (over and over
again?, BUT
at least once for the benefit of that newcomer 'alien' who comes from
another vista' ,
like
(absolute?) probability - is there such a thing as probability, the figment
that
if it happend x times it WILL happen the (X+one)th time as well? combined
with
the statistical hoax of counting from select members in a limited group
the version
'A' models and assuming its 'probability'?
observer moment (observer, for that matter), whether the moment is a
time-concept
in it and the 'observer' must be conscious (btw: identifying 'conscious')
number (in the broader sense, yet applied as real integers) (Btw: are the
'non-Arabic'
numbers also numbers? the figments of evolutionary languages alp[habetical
or not?
Is zero a number? Was not in "Platonia" - a millennium before its
invention(?!)
The 'extensions' of machine into (loebian etc.) [non?]-machine, like comp
into the nondigital
and mixing our mental interpretations with what has been interpreted
(unknowable).
Just some picked examples promoting a not-so-technical glossary for the rest
of the world
