“Heat energy, then, like all other forms of energy, consists of two factors, a capacity and an intensity factor, entropy and temperature-just as gravitational energy depends on weight and height, kinetic energy on mass and velocity, electrical energy on quantity of electricity and difference in potential.”

Exactly the conclusion I am coming to. Do you still have your phone limited?

2024-09-18 14:33:33

I converted my iPhone to a dumb phone yesterday and only my friend has the password to make changes.
- Turned off Safari.
- Limited Twitter, Instagram, and Damus to 10 minutes total (I may increase this time limit).
- App installing still allowed (I may turn this off depending on if I see myself using it as a work around).
I have accepted for the time being that a Ulysses pact is the best way to reduce social media usage. I was hoping that I could reduce social media usage by simply growing in virtue but that hasn't really worked for me. Maybe it would in the future when I am more mature.

"But no principles are ever so certain that subsequent verification of the deductions can be entirely dispensed with. Nor, despite the most perfect logic, are the deductions ever quite so certain as the principles. We cannot reason directly from *things*, but only from *concepts*, by which the things are replaced, and which never fit them perfectly. Assumptions have to be made at the start, and usually further assumptions as the reasoning proceeds. We cannot, in short, get rid of hypothetical elements entirely. For these reasons, we cannot safely carry our deductions too far without checking them by comparison with experience. A rational physical theory is like a cantilever bridge that we start to build at one end. However firm the rock may be from which it springs, we cannot build out too far without putting a pier down to earth."

"Carnot did not know the law according to which so to speak, the force of heat diminishes with the temperature height. He left it to his successors to find out. who labored long and vainly at it. They called it *Carnot's function*–a function being an unknown mathematical relation. The problem was not solved until in 1850 Clausius applied the principle of the conservation of energy."

Yea. I think this just comes down to the complexity of how trust is developed in the first place. Trust is also not something that can be determined in a very short timeframe but requires independent circumstances so that those can be compared. Needs to be some amount of convergence where multiple channels point toward trust from different directions.
Not something typically handled by verbal "propositions", at least not exclusively.

What if I know I shouldn’t be trusted in certain ways. Is it even possible to communicate that to someone?

2024-09-08 20:47:09

It seems that a person cannot legitimately make claims about their own trustworthiness because the act of telling someone something presumes trustworthiness.
It is akin to saying “this statement is false” a self referential error.
“I am untrustworthy”

What I'm just now grasping with the Carnot cycle is that the source of high pressure must come from heat *by definition*. If you already had a pressure differential, you could of course use that to perform work, but the Carnot cycle would not be relevant.
Still need to strengthen my understanding of the max efficiency derived from this model.
