The reason

No the REASON I have adhd is that I have adhd.
Hym "The REASON... YOU HAVE EVERYTHING YOU HAVE... Is that I am a genius. YOU seem to not understand that the purpose of Andrew Tate... Is to demonstrate how trivial it is for me to make 100 million dollars and be better than Joe Rogan... But I will forgive you because THE REASON you've changed your tune on the INCEST CULT... Is that you were taken to prison without charge and molested into compliance in my stead... So, there's that..."

Meta-Reason

The application of reasoning to evaluate and improve our reasoning processes themselves. It's about identifying cognitive biases (like confirmation bias), understanding the limits of heuristics, and choosing the right reasoning tool for the problem. It's what you use when you realize your own argument is getting emotional, so you deliberately step back to assess the evidence more coldly. It's rationality's quality control department.
Example: "He was losing the debate, so he engaged meta-reason: 'Hold on, I'm getting defensive because my identity is tied to this view. Let me steel-man my opponent's argument instead.' He still lost, but he lost with intellectual integrity, which is its own weird nerd victory."

Field Reason

The specific mode of calculated, instrumental thinking demanded by and rewarded within a controlled field. It is reason stripped of ethical, historical, or social context, focused solely on optimizing for the field's designated goals (e.g., efficiency, engagement, profit). To use Field Reason is to accept the field's premises and play by its rules.
Field Reason Example: A social media manager using field reason decides to post inflammatory content because the platform's algorithm rewards outrage with visibility. They are reasoning perfectly within the field's logic (maximize engagement metrics), while deliberately ignoring the broader social harm (polarization, spread of hate) their actions cause.

Latent Reasoning

"The model reasons in its internal, abstract representation of the problem..." Says the article.
Hym "The new model in Singapore uses 'Latent Reasoning.' Which is the idea that WE DO NOT THINK IN WORDS BUT RATHER AMORPHOUS ABSTRACTIONS! Which is ALSO MY IDEA!!! It uses 2 asymmetrical cycles of computation (Slow deliberate planning and fast intuitive computation) and they call it the hierarchical model but ALSO MY IDEA! What do you think is at the top of that hierarchy class? That's right! IT MUST necessarily be A LOCALIZED SELF! AND-"
