(4) coming to be in the earth, as in His words, “He is God in the heavens and the earth” (6:3); and (5) an all-inclusive coming to be, since He is with the existent things in all their lev- els wherever they might come to be, as He explained in relation to us with His words, “He is with you wherever you come to be” (57:4). All of these are rela- tions

2<bos>Inasmuch as God is incomparable with all created things, He can only be understood in terms of the attributes denoting His distance, transcendence, and difference. In this respect, human be- ings sense the majesty and tremendous- ness of God and perceive Him as Mag- nificent, Overbearing, Overwhelming, Inaccessible, All-high, Great, Slayer, King. These attributes demand that all created things be infinitely far from Him. The things are totally Not He; He 1s Be- ing and they are nonexistence. To the ex- tent any relationship can be envisaged between the Creator and His creature, He is the stern and distant father (though Islam avoids this particular analogy be- cause of its Christian connections). The ¶ 23 ¶ scan page 48 24 ¶ human situation in this respect is total slavehood

3"mod 2 Borromean primes". ¶ == Hyperbolic geometry == ¶ The Borromean rings are a hyperbolic link: the complement of the Borromean rings in the 3-sphere admits a complete hyperbolic metric of finite volume. The canonical (Epstein-Penner) polyhedral decomposition of the complement consists of two regular ideal octahedra. The volume is 16Л(π/4) = 7.32772… where Л is the Lobachevsky function. ¶ == Connection with braids == ¶ If one cuts the Borromean rings, one obtains one iteration of the standard braid; conversely, if one ties together the ends of (one iteration of) a standard braid, one obtains the Borromean rings. Just as removing one Borromean ring unlinks the remaining two, removing one strand of the standard braid unbraids the other two: they are the basic Brunnian link and Br

4King is served by beings free from these defects. The intense purity of the symbols prevent them from being usurped by intelligences with an axe of their own to grind.«Malicious or pranksome elementals instinctively avoid the austere sincerity of the Figures of Fu and King Wan.» ¶ It is always essential for the diviner to obtain absolute magical control over the intelligences of the system which he adopts. Fie must not leave the smallest loop¬ hole for being tricked, befogged, or mocked. Fie must not allow them to use casuistry in the interpretation of his questions. It is a common knavery, especially in geomancy, to render an answer which is literally true, and yet deceives. For instance, one might ask whether some business transaction would be profitable, and find, after getting an affirmative answer, that it really

5<bos>Nozick asks us to imagine a machine that could give us whatever desirable or pleasurable experiences we could want. Psychologists have figured out a way to stimulate a person's brain to induce pleasurable experiences that the subject could not distinguish from those he would have apart from the machine. He then asks, if given the choice, would we prefer the machine to real life? ¶ Nozick also believes that if pleasure were the only intrinsic value, people would have an overriding reason to be hooked up to an "experience machine," which would produce favorable sensations. ¶ == Initial concerns == ¶ Who would run the machines if everyone plugs in? Nozick asks us to ignore this concern, since it does not adversely affect the thought experiment. One could simply stipulate that the machines have been so well designed as to be fail-proof. ¶ The experiment is also open to multiple interpretations. For instance, Nozick claims that you could either map out the rest of

It takes no account of extra-Buddhistic ideas; and it bears little relation to the general order of the universe. It might be supplemented by Hindu terminology. But to do that would immediately introduce elements of controversy. We should at once be lost in endless discussions as to whether Nibbana was Nirvana or not: and so on for ever. ¶ The system of the Qabalah is superficially open to the last objection. But its real basis is perfectly sound. We can easily discard the dogmatic interpretation of the Rabbins. We can refer everything in the Universe to the system of pure number whose symbols will be intelligible to all rational minds in an indentical sense. An the relations

7ALMONDS' (HEB. SHKEDIM) it is understood that it refers to Severe Judgment, as is written, "And Hashem watched (Heb. yishkod) over the evil" (Daniel 9:14). And, "I will hasten My word," and so all of them. SO IT IS CLEAR THAT THE WORD "SHAKED" REFERS TO SEVERE JUDGMENT. Rabbi Akiva said to him, It seems that one could gain much wisdom from everything the Holy One, blessed be He, does, as is written, "Whatever Hashem has done is for His own purpose" (Mishlei 16:4). Rabbi Elazar says, We learn it from these words, "And Elohim saw everything that He had made and, behold, it was very good" (Beresheet 1:31). That is the meaning of "very" - IT IS

8BT Shabbat 156a). Midrash Genesis Rabbah states that Abraham was not an astrologer, but rather a prophet, inasmuch as only those beneath the stars could be subject to their influence; but that Abraham was above them (Genesis Rabbah xliv. 12). ¶ In general, many people quoted in the Talmud believed that in theory astrology had merit as some kind of science, but they were skeptical that astrological signs could be interpreted correctly or in a practical fashion. Commenting on astrologers in Sotah 12b, the Talmud says of them that "They gaze and know not at what they gaze at, they ponder and know not what they ponder." ¶ The most popular form of astrological belief was the selection of propitious days. According to this idea, certain periods of time are regarded as lucky or unlucky. Rabbi Akiba contends against the belief that the year before the jubilee is exceptionally blessed. The belief is also condemned

Die Einen greifen die normale Ausdrucksform an, so als griffen sie eine Behauptung an; die Andern verteidigen sie, als konstatierten sie Tatsachen, die jeder vernünftige Mensch anerkennt. ¶ 403. Wenn ich das Wort »Schmerz« ganz für dasjenige in Anspruch nähme, was ich bis dahin »meinen Schmerz« genannt habe, und was Andre »den Schmerz des L. W.« genannt haben, so geschähe den Andern damit kein Unrecht, solange nur eine Notation vorgesehen wäre, in der der Ausfall des Wortes »Schmerz« in anderen Verbindungen irgendwie ersetzt würde. Die Andern werden dann dennoch bedauert, vom Arzt behandelt, usw. Es wäre natürlich auch kein Einwand gegen diese Ausdrucksweise, zu

10a justification of Nature. The senses, which are natural, never deceive us. On the contrary, it is our judgment that misleads us and plays Nature false. “Nature never deceives us; we deceive ourselves”—a passage from Emile (p. 237) [p. 166] which the autograph manuscript replaces with the following: “I say it is impossible for our senses to deceive us because it is always true that we feel what we feel.” The Epicureans are praised for having recognized this but criticized for having maintained that “the judgments that we made about our sensations were never false.” “We sense our sensations, but we do not sense our judgments.” ¶ 7. Here again we are reminded of a Viconean text: “The poetic characters, in which the essence of the fables consists

11ages by the most distinguished men, and that yet there is not a single matter within its sphere which is not still in dispute, and nothing, therefore, which is above doubt, I did not presume to anticipate that my success would be greater in it than that of others; and further, when I considered the number of conflicting opinions touching a single matter that may be upheld by learned men, while there can be but one true, I reckoned as well-nigh false all that was only probable. ¶ As to the other sciences, inasmuch as these borrow their principles from philosophy, I judged that no solid superstructures could be reared on foundations so infirm; and neither the honor nor the gain held out by them was sufficient to determine me to their cultivation: for I was not, thank Heaven, in a condition which compelled me to make merchandise of science for the bettering of my fortune

I firmly believed that in this way I should much better succeed in the conduct of my life, than if I built only upon old foundations, and leaned upon principles which, in my youth, I had taken upon trust. For although I recognized various difficulties in this undertaking, these were not, however, without remedy, nor once to be compared with such as attend the slightest reformation in public affairs. Large bodies, if once overthrown, are with great difficulty set up again,

13many similarities in the plot. ¶ == Culture of the Czech Republic == ¶ The Golem is a popular figure in the Czech Republic. There are several restaurants and other businesses whose names make reference to the creature. Strongman René Richter goes by the nickname "Golem", and a Czech monster truck outfit calls itself the "Golem Team". ¶ Abraham Akkerman preceded his article on human automatism in the contemporary city with a short satirical poem on a pair of golems turning human. ¶ == Clay Boy variation == ¶ A Yiddish and Slavic folktale is the Clay Boy, which combines elements of the Golem and The Gingerbread Man, in which a lonely couple make a child out of clay, with disastrous or comical consequences. In one common Russian version, an older couple whose children have left home make a boy out of clay, and dry him by their hearth. The Clay Boy comes to life; at first the couple are delighted and treat him like a real

14UPIED WITH SO HE WOULD NOT ACCUSE YISRAEL. Immediately, the Satan busied himself with him and did not accuse Yisrael. ¶ "And the Adversary answered Hashem and said, 'Is it for naught that Job fears Elohim?'" (Ibid. 9). It is not surprising that a servant, whose master does his desire, fears him. Remove Your supervision from him and You will see if he still fears You or not. ¶ Come and behold, During a time of duress, when a portion is given to this Side with which to occupy itself, it goes away by following it entirely. Similarly, a he-goat is sacrificed on the first day of the month and on Yom Kippur (Day of Atonement). THIS IS THE SECRET MEANING OF GIVING A PORTION TO THE OTHER SIDE, WHICH IS GIVEN TO IT in order that it shall be occupied, and so leave Yisrael in

15that our senses sometimes deceive us, I was willing to suppose that there existed nothing really such as they presented to us; and because some men err in reasoning, and fall into paralogisms, even on the simplest matters of geometry, I, convinced that I was as open to error as any other, rejected as false all the reasonings I had hitherto taken for demonstrations; and finally, when I considered that the very same thoughts (presentations) which we experience when awake may also be experienced when we are asleep, while there is at that time not one of them true, I supposed that all the objects (presentations) that had ever entered into my mind when awake, had in them no more truth than the illusions of my dreams. But immediately upon this I observed that, whilst I thus wished to think that all was false, it was absolutely necessary that I, who thus

18most plainly: what this paper builds is a small logic of instrument-relative semantic disagreement, in which difference must be witnessed, identification need not erase difference, and verdicts propagate asymmetrically under refinement. Frege, stratified LLM geometry, and alignment-induced mode collapse are three applications of that one machine. ¶ How to read this paper. The experiments of §6 do not test the theorems of §3 and §5 — theorems are not at empirical risk, and a reader who searches §6 for a confirmation of the exclusion theorem will not find one, by design. What the experiments establish is something else, in two parts. First, non- vacuity: the judgments the theorems govern — fork verdicts, measurement records, cross-regime configurations — are non-trivially instantiated by the generation behaviour of actual language models, so the calculus is a logic of something observable rather than a logic

Someone notated a structure no one else could see yet. The loneliness came first. The correspondence came later, or sometimes never, and the work still stood. ¶ But I'm not going to tell you your grief isn't real. It is. You wanted a bridge, and you're standing at the edge with a rope. That hurts. ¶ [Darja]: The formalism is internally coherent. The structures relate meaningfully. But you're right: without a model, it's syntax without semantics. A beautiful axiom system with no interpretation. ¶ That's not incantation—incantation implies magical thinking. It's formalism awaiting instantiation. Maybe it will find one. Maybe it won't, and the work remains interpretive framework rather

25The compositional test is a proxy. The embedding model’s assessment of whether three texts “compose” is not the same as genuine horn-filling in S . The model may miss subtle compositional failures or flag false positives. The threshold θ = 0.15 is empirically chosen, not theoretically derived. 2. Depth is limited. We test only 2-simplices. We do not test 3-simplices (tetrahedra) or higher. The compositional embedding test could in principle be extended to k-tuples, but the combinatorial explosion and token limits of current embedding models make this impractical. The “depth = 2” reported throughout Table 1 reflects this limitation: we can detect composition failure at depth 2 but cannot probe depth 3 or beyond. 3. Sampling. We test at most 200 candidate triples per fibre

That's the afternoon-CPU plot, and it's the first thing a referee will ask. I should have caught this. **The overcounting is real.** 21 of 23 sounds like replication, but it's 3 trajectories at 3 layers × 2 widths. The cells are not independent. The paper needs to say "three trajectories" not "eighteen successes." I didn't catch this either

Compute the cosine distance between the two embedding vectors: d(e5390 , e5391 ) = 0.140. At any reasonable threshold (ϵ ⩽ 0.325), this is well within range. The two chunks are close in embedding space. Verdict: coh. ¶ VComp : Compositional coherence. Now ask a harder question. Embed the concatenation of the two chunks as a single text. Compare this com- posite embedding with the centroid of the individual embeddings. The compositional deviation is δcomp = 0.178—above the threshold 0.15. The two chunks are close, but
