@sarahdoingthing interesting; so am i reading it right, that all theorization/puzzle-solving reflects our need for status and belonging?
@sarahdoingthing any thoughts on how/why closure is applied?
@sulpuroxide 1) it's incredibly useful 2) apply early and often 3) try to do closure the same as everybody else 4) sometimes it blows up
@sulpuroxide it's largely emotional - you learn to shut off thoughts based on taste/connotation/aesthetic
@sulpuroxide nobody is doing math or making careful conscious inferences at that level of thinking - microsecond emotional processes
@sarahdoingthing hm. the other side of completeness is consistency. i want to say that maximal consistency of a theory requires closure
@sarahdoingthing that people shut off at some point in order to preserve non-contradiction
@sarahdoingthing are you familiar with paul feyerabend, esp his "against method"?
@sulpuroxide I don't think so
@sarahdoingthing theory progress requires forgoing basic worldviews, including methodology. quentiessential fan theory, in a way.
