  1. Any network theory that limits itself to dyadic relations, that is, links between pairs of nodes only, is already so radically reductionist that it is next to useless for understanding complex systems, especially those that involve symbolic processes or sign-using activity.

    There is a deep and pervasive #Analogy between systems of #Commerce and systems of #Communication, turning on their near-universal use of #Symbola (images, media, proxies, signs, symbols, tokens, etc.) to stand for #Pragmata (objects, objective values, the things we really care about, or would really care about if we examined our values in practice thoroughly enough).

    My remarks on Facebook regarding the Zeroth Law Of Semiotics and its application to the Liar Paradox prompted Kent Olson to observe, “The liar paradox is a self-referential paradox, yes? I think #Russell answered these”. I added the following comment.

    Meaning is a privilege not a right.
    Not all pictures depict.
    Not all signs denote.

    Never confuse a property of a sign,
    just for instance, existence,
    with a sign of a property,
    for instance, existence.

    Taking a property of a sign
    for a sign of a property
    is the zeroth sign of
    nominal thinking
    and the first
    mistake.
