What Finitism Could Not Be *
In his paper “Finitism” (1981), W.W. Tait maintains that the chief difficulty for everyone who wishes to understand Hilbert’s conception of finitist mathematics is this: to specify the sense of the provability of general statements about the natural numbers without presupposing infinite totalities. Tait further argues that all finitist reasoning is essentially primitive recursive. In this paper...
متن کاملWhat a Self Could Be
Metzinger’s claim that there are no such things as selves has given rise to a lot of discussions. By examining the notion of self used by Metzinger, I want to clarify what he means when saying that nobody ever was or had a self. Furthermore, I want to examine if there could be a notion of ‘self’ which is compatible with the SelfModel Theory of Subjectivity (SMT). I will argue that there is a no...
متن کاملWhat Chances Could Not Be
The chance of a physical event is the objective, single-case probability that it will occur. In probabilistic physical theories like quantum mechanics, the chances of physical events play the formal role that the values of physical quantities play in classical (deterministic) physics, and there is a temptation to regard them on the model of the latter as describing intrinsic properties of the s...
متن کاملPractice Appointment Rates for High-risk Asthmatics: What could be the Predictor(s)?
Practice appointment rates could have a significant impact on national health care costs and services offered by doctors. In this respect a study was designed to determine the relationship between practice appointments and possible predictors in high-risk asthmatics. An observational retrospective analysis of the predictors for the practice appointments in asthmatic patients with at least one h...
متن کاملWhat Must (Not) Be Available Where?
Arranging the distribution of data, objects or components is a critical task that can ultimately affect the performance, integrity and reliability of distributed system. This paper suggests to write down what must (not) be available where in order to reveal conflicting distribution requirements and to detect problems early on. Distribution requirements are expressed via a new notion of constrai...
