Some of you have already seen this. As a reminder, there are plenty
more roaches where I came from.
1) Any problem can be solved given sufficient time and resources.
2) A problem is anything which would be unacceptable to an observer if
the observer were fully aware of its implications.
3) Unacceptable is a subjective decision by the observer(s) based upon
priorities.
4) Priorities are derived from beliefs, opinions, capabilities,
expectations, factual data, analytical constraints, etc. - lump them
together as a systemic state.
5) The priorities of mankind are made manifest by allocation of time
and resources to problem solving tasks.
6) Allocation is made more effective by using technology (computers in
particular) to leverage the biologically limited human intellect.
7) Applying this leverage has significantly improved the systemic
state of mankind over the past twenty years, while producing a
valuable side effect.
8) The side effect is that more people are becoming familiar with
analytical reasoning (made necessary by usage of computers) weakening
the influence of emotion based belief systems, and changing priority
allocation.
9) Which can make it *possible* to discard belief systems in conflict
with reality.
