Theory of Systems of Parameters and Reference Frames

Share definition Flag
A meta‑theory that synthesises the previous theories: any system – physical, statistical, logical, social – is best understood as a system of parameters (internal variables, thresholds, scales) and reference frames (observer positions, disciplinary perspectives, historical contexts). This theory argues that there is no system‑in‑itself independent of these choices; rather, systems are always systems‑relative‑to‑parameters‑and‑frames. It promotes methodological transparency and pluralism across all sciences and humanities.
Theory of Systems of Parameters and Reference Frames Example: “The theory of systems of parameters and reference frames ties together the earlier insights: whether you study statistics, evidence, or dynamic systems, you must specify your frame. There is no view from nowhere.”

system of a down 

Share definition Flag
A band that created a unique sound by combining armenian and middle eastern elements with heavy metal. People accuse them of just screaming because they're too illiterate to read their lyrics or try to interpit them. Shallow preps hate them because their image is not as flashy as that of a rapper or pop star. Some hate them just because they're afaird listening to "unpopular" music would set them apart from the crowd. One of the few good metal bands in an industry poluted by nu-metal clones.
Me: Have you heard System of A Down?

Wigger: Fuck no, I don't listen ta dat shit, all they does scream about shit dat don't mean shit.

Me: Really, Have you tried to read their lyrics or interpit them?

Wigger: Read? Wut da fuck?! I don't read any shit! And wut da fuck does 'interaypit' mean?!

system of ascending precedents

Share definition Flag

-As far as I know, this phrase has never been coined or defined before.
Bob tells funny stories and does spontaneous imitations at work. each one is a little funnier than the one before. his co-worker's expectations track with his performance so that now he has to maintain the gradient of improvement every time he opens his mouth or, - and this is the key- they will respond as if it was less funny than it really is. He has trapped himself in a system of ascending precedents.

It's Simple...a System of a Down Fan likes System of a Down. Liking the music doesn't make them a fag, although i will agree that a few fools will make idiots of themselves by not respecting the opinions of others and degrading any other music.
System of a Down Fan #1: I like SOAD, they have meaningful lyrics.
SOAD disliker: Meh, they're not my favorite.
SOAD Fan #1: Alright, it's you're opinion.
SOAD Fan #2: u idiot douchebag!!!SOAD ownz all.

If you can't guess, the 2nd fan is the fag.
