Re: Is Quantum Mechanics A Probabilistic Theory? • What Is Measurement? Measurement is an extension of perception.  Measurement gives us data about an object system the way perception gives us percepts, which we may consider just a species of data. … Continue reading →

Re: Michael Harris • Language About Language But then inevitably I find myself wondering whether a proof assistant, or even a formal system, can make the distinction between “technical” and “fundamental” questions.  There seems to be no logical distinction.  The … Continue reading →
