Post-Science, knowledge beyond physical science, poses three
challenges to the current knowledge establishment, which is
dominated by physical science:
(1) Touch
When two objects comes into contact,
they generally collide and bounce off each other. It becomes
apparent to researchers in recent years that robot fingers bounce
off objects they try to touch and a spacecraft has difficulty
docking. Fundamentally, to exert on an object a force, which is
the fundamental concept in Newtonian Mechanics, one must first
come into contact with the object or touch the object.
Post-science introduces a new concept called "jumpulse"
which is a sudden change of force, as Newtonian impulse is a
sudden change of momentum, to explain touch, or bounceless
collision.
(2) Value
Value is the foundation of social
science because all rational decisions should be based on value
determination. Post-science introduces a rigorous solution to
value ("Quantitative Supply And Demand Model Based On
Infinite spreadsheet" Pat. No. 6,078,901). Due to the
complexity of the whole field of value, the following challenge is
offered to all current economists:
Why Should Inflation Be
Controlled ?
Current economists are afraid of
inflation, but would not be able to explain their fears. Only the
Infinite Spreadsheet, which relates all financial factors is a
time space extending to infinity, can explain the real danger of
inflation because only it can calculate the rate of return on
investment (after around 10,000 iterations on the Infinite
Spreadsheet.)
Inflation Rate must satisfy the
requirement:
%Return > %Interest >
%Inflation
(Rate of Investment Return greater
than Interest Rate; Interest Rate greater than Inflation Rate)
Explanation:
(1) Investors must borrow money
at an interest rate lower than the rate of return in order to make
profit on the borrowed money.
(2) Lenders must loan money at an
interest rate higher than the inflation rate in order to make a
real profit (profit after deduction for inflation).
(3) For the stock market, the
price and all the expected future financial factors are given,
except the rate of return. The rate of return can only be
calculated as the final variable in the Infinite Spreadsheet, in
which all the financial factors are related in a mathematically
consistent fashion. The calculation takes about 10,000 iterations.
(4) Conclusion: The rate of
return sets an upper limit on how high the inflation can be
allowed. The rate of return is relatively stable comparing to the
inflation rate and is an approximate time-invariant quantity.
(3) Software
Post-science introduces the solution
to Permanent Software ("Completely Automated And
Self-generating Software System" Pat. No. 5,485,601). All
today's software are based on temporary standards, and most
today's software budgets are spend on updating the software. As
the tobacco industry, the temporary software standards will be
considered illegal because they are addictive (trapping users to
the temporary standards and, thus, making huge profits). Permanent
Software provides a theoretical foundation for life science, in
which DNA should be identified as the ultimate Permanent Software
and a wisdom accumulated from the infinite past. Life science
involves both the infinite future and the past, while social
science only the infinite future.
