The wrong kind of science
● Ergodic, no path-dedendency
● First order optimisation problem
● Single right answer
● Not affected by context
● Objective measures capture everything
● No phase-transitions
● Value is entirely objective
● Averages are reliable information (mediocristan)
● The opposite of a right answer is a wrong answer
● Optimise the whole by optimising the component parts
If you have a creative suggestion,
you have to present it to rational
people for approval.
Note, this rule never applies
the other way round.
“There is no sensible distinction to be made in a restaurant
between the value created by the man who cooks the food and the
value created by the man who sweeps the floor.”
