Types of knowledge
So a project I've been thinking about (for years) is a method of classifying knowledge. Obviously there are many systems, but I want to have my own in place before I start researching others. Though I gotta say, "known knowns, known unknowns, and unknown unknowns" is a pretty sweet method.
Definitions-
When does red become orange?
Protocols-
PEMDAS
Useful lies-
Species concepts
Truths-
unknowable, but do exist
I don't feel like finishing this at the moment, but I'll come back to it.
I'm back
So, oddly enough, I started a job homeschooling a kid whose father is a data head and basically likes to classify information. Huh. He does computer programming stuff, which makes me think I might actually enjoy that if I were willing to give it a chance. Something to think about later.
Also I had a conversation with a friend about the term "niche" as an ecology term. Which is leading me into thoughts about nouns and abstract nouns. Maybe I should look at a grammar book?
