[edit] Royce Da 5'9"

Your wish is our command. *Poof* -- done.  :-) SWAdair | Talk 06:15, 7 Apr 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Quantum circuit

Please have a look at my edit to quantum circuit. I tried to deal with your objection. Did I miss something? Thanks. --CSTAR 14:09, 10 Apr 2005 (UTC)

[edit] constructivism (mathematics)

Unfortunately I think your "improvement" in the disambiguation notice made it worse, because those who are looking for "other meanings" in this case very often DO NOT KNOW that the philosophy of mathematics-education is another meaning and is not what the article is supposed to be about. Piaget is not relevant here! Michael Hardy 20:15, 5 October 2005 (UTC)

Hi Michael -- I see what you mean -- it hadn't occurred to me that mathematics and education overlap in mathematics education -- I was just thinking that all meanings of constructivism are created equal and there seemed to be no reason to single out education from the others. These warnings shouldn't be too long, though, I think -- is my shortened version of your warning OK?

Wrong, wrong, wrong! You're totally missing the point! "all meanings of constructivism are created equal and there seemed to be no reason to single out education from the others"? The point is: the word "constructivism" in philosophy of education and the term "constructivism" in philosophy of mathematics refer to two entirely different things. In philosophy of education, "constructivism" is a tenet about the way people learn by "constructing knowledge". In philosophy of mathematics, "constructivism" is about the sense in which mathematical objects such as numbers, functions, sets, etc. can be said to exist, and how their existence can be known.

[edit] Re Davidson copyright violation

Hi! Thanks for the heads-up on this; it slipped under my radar. Well, even though there is no copyright notice on that site, I think we should err on the side of caution and assume that it is unless explicitly stated otherwise, so I removed it again and added a note on Talk:Davidson. I notified the user who inserted it, too, although he has not contributed for awhile. HollyAm 03:50, 2 February 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Non-imposition&monotonicity

That was a very nice example! Thank you. Well, I give. I need to recheck my notes. It will take me some time, as I will be completely offline in the next month. But I promise to come back and pursue this with greater detail. What I had in mind was what Arrow called "positive association" of the welfare function. Your examle is intriguing - it shows that monotonicity isn't equivalent with that. I think you should show it around more. I wonder what the others will have to say about it. Also, I have a feeling that this should be no more than a freak pathology having to do with having just one voter. Can you show this phenomenon in general with any number of voters? Where did this example come from? mousomer 18:34, 6 October 2005 (UTC)
