Pythagorean Theorem is true in the Euclidean plane. I'm not sure all

My opinion. 1/0 is undefined. Depending on the context you can define it

To say that lim(1/x) as x ->0 = infinity means precisely:
For any r in R, however large, there exists an x in R such that 1/x > r.

The point is there is no way to partition a square into two squares.

Off the top off my head. As long as the small square isn't of zero area
the larger square isn't a square. When the smaller square reaches area
zero there is only one square.
What do you think?

Not right. As I said, you may believe or not x, y, and/or z independently
whether or not you know logic. In the meantime x and y imply z.

I believe that one can believe a, b, and c independently even if a and b
entail (or cause) c.
Also, in the definition of causation I reported earlier I carefully said "a
cause" rather than "the cause".
I taught resolution theorem proving in the AI course that I taught. That's
a lot of logic.
Heuristic:
What a mess. High entropy.
Everything in its place. Low entropy.

The counterfactual definition of cause that you offer has been widely
discussed and has been found to be inadequate.
Jon, give me an "other thing" that may be a cause and I'll bet that I can
explain how it's an event. Or how you can construe it as one.
There is a book called "Entailment" by

Nick, you are correct in saying that causation is a relation between
events. The most useful definition of causation that we found in our
statistical causal reasoning research (viz Spirtes, Glymour, and Scheines)
was event A is a cause of event B if the occurrence of A is followed by a
change in
I'm not reading this carefully enough. I am selling my car which involves
paperwork.
There are many systems with causal graphs with feedback loops. In genetic
regulatory networks, for example. Is that downward causation?
A classic example is the case if two ladders leaning against each other

In a project I was working on in the 70s we said that we were trying to
identify phenotypic manifestations of a genetic predisposition to develop
schizophrenia. Does that work for you?
