A series and a rearrangement of the same: A) 1 - 1/2 +1/3 -1/4 + ... limiting its way to the natural log of 2
B) 1 + 1/3 - 1/2 +1/5 + 1/7 - 1/4 ... limiting its way to 3/2 times the natural log of 2 Let's call the object that exists in the limit of statistical practice the state-of-affairs. If the process by which the object of scientific inquiry gives up its properties is absolutely convergent then maybe it is *fine* to allow statistics to tightly govern policy creation. But what an assumption! The sum above being just one of an unfathomable number of ways that facts of the world can be incorporated to show conditional convergence. So Nick, what does your boy Peirce have to say about that?
