Observation: Dan Davies , Henry Farrell , and Brad DeLong ... have a fascination with the work of Stafford Beer.  Question: Why? Conjecture: AI (or the ongoing development(s) in computing) for Management Theory as well as for Economics continues in its course.  The obvious other question here is politics, but the experimental direction is not politics so much as management through computing and whether or not such management might work as AI. How politics emerges though AI is, of course, a topic in itself. Proposal [for computing]: Stafford Beer did seminal work in developing the use of computing for [process] management.  However, the language employed by Beer is not quite in sync with the language in use today. Perhaps, if the goal is to popularize Beer further (or to review such ideas in light of current technology), we should map the language of Beer to Workflow Management and to Decision Theory and to the like ... For example: Re-map the term Beer uses for non-hiera...

A Conjecture for a Hybrid Model Bayesian epistemology concerns modelling and specifically, belief, but a Bayesian belief does not need to be fully formed to emerge alongside the Heideggerian to-hand. The Heideggerian to-hand thereby becomes the interaction that generates this further, which is, with this interaction, a certain realization of being in the world. Bayesian selection now concerns available beliefs as well as any to-hand [belief(s)].

Conjecture: The historical analysis of the development of mathematics tends to lean on artifacts such as tally sticks and etch marks. Here, commerce serves as the basis of mathematics, and thereby, mathematics is grounded in the ability to count, which is implicitly understood to be the basis of commerce (fair exchange).  Development of Mathematics Question: What if distance becomes the basis of mathematics? How does this concept ground mathematics? Rather than assert that mathematics starts with counting, we assert instead that mathematics begins with the realization of distance? Do we then realize that number becomes a shorthand for distance in the abstract? Number Number ... Distance
