What do we make of this case? It's theoretically compatible with a deficiency of another micronutrient resulting from a higher rate of metabolism, but it gives one pause: reddit.com/r/raypeat/comm…

The twentieth century, in its latter half, shall surely see the deluge-tempest burstupon the social order,—to clear upon a world as deep in ruin as that greed-philosophy has long plunged it into guilt. No post-thermidorian high jinks then!

It's an anti-communist operation. No visible stratification that could make the masses resentful. No competitive means of advancement that could enflame that resentment. Trust the plan.

#CSPeirce: "The reality of continuity once admitted ... to say anything is continuous is to leave possibilities open which are closed by asserting it is discontinuous. Accordingly, a regulative principle of logic requires us to hold each thing as continuous until (1/2)

it is proved to be discontinuous. But absolute discontinuity cannot be proved to be real, nor can any good reason for believing it so be alleged. We thus reach the conclusion that, as a regulative principle, at least, ultimate continuity ought to be presumed everywhere." (2/2)

Time with its continuity logically involves some other kind of continuity than its own. Time, as the universal form of change, cannot exist unless there is something to undergo change, and to undergo a change continuous in time, there must be a continuity of changeable qualities.

I now proceed to consider what principles should guide us in abduction, or the process of choosing a hypothesis. Underlying all such principles there is a fundamental and primary abduction, a hypothesis which we must embrace at the outset, /1

The truth is that the whole fabric of our knowledge is one matted felt of pure hypothesis confirmed and refined by induction. Not the smallest advance can be made in knowledge beyond the stage of vacant staring, without making an abduction at every step.

#CSPeirce: "True generality is, in fact, nothing but a rudimentary form of true continuity. Continuity is nothing but perfect generality of a law of relationship. It would, therefore, be most contrary to his own principle for the synechist not to generalize from that (1/4)
