01:39:53 <nsh> phenny, ask clsn if he can buy something on ebay for me as shipping outside america adds ~$100 to the price despite the item weighing 25 grams (will pay in advance desired)

01:42:11 <bancus> Interesting that the idem is on .co.uk.
01:42:12 <phenny> bancus: 28 May 19:27Z <sbp> ask bancus what the djuno debate is
01:42:31 <nsh> i started at .co.uk
01:42:34 <bancus> phenny: Tell sbp that I have no idea. djuno is the lojban predicate for knowing.
01:42:58 <nsh> probably cryptophilosophic quiddity then
01:43:12 <nsh> heh, quiddity isn't in my wordsfile
01:43:13 <bancus> Well, I don't pay much attention to lojbanistan outside of IRC.
01:43:22 * nsh nods
01:43:37 <bancus> So there could be some massive debate raging and as long as no one mentions it on IRC, I'd have no idea.
01:44:23 <nsh> i take that attitude to popular culture
01:45:10 <nsh> i should have said "approach" rather than attitude; been awake for lots of hours :-/
01:45:51 * bancus searches google, fines some mailing lists posts from 2001 that mention the term "djuno debate"
01:46:55 <nsh> sbp's current-affairs division is devoutly anachronistic
01:47:25 <bancus> Seems to have something to do with whether you can use "djuno" to "know" something that isn't true.
01:47:31 <bancus> Which I thought had been solves some time ago.
01:47:36 <nsh> heh
01:47:51 * nsh doesn't start
01:47:56 <bancus> Well.
01:48:09 <bancus> It has to do with the fact that "djuno" isn't exactly the english word "know".
01:49:21 <nsh> so i'd imagine
01:49:29 <nsh> what are the differences?
01:50:06 <bancus> That in English, you can't say that "John knows that the world is flat."
01:51:02 <nsh> speak for yourself :-)
01:51:19 <bancus> But you could say "la djan djuno le du'u le terdi cu plita"
01:51:32 <bancus> Well, you can say it, but you wouldn't if you knew John's knowing to be wrong.
01:51:40 <bancus> You'd say "John believes that..."
01:52:03 <bancus> If you said "knows", you'd probably inflect it some how to indicate that it's other than true.
01:52:37 <nsh> right
01:53:02 <bancus> So such distinction exists for "djuno"
01:53:26 <bancus> "la djan djuno le du'u le terdi cu plita" could totally be true, even if "le terdi cu plita" is false.
01:53:27 <nsh> whereas, djuno represents John's state of knowledge in reference to himself?
01:53:34 <bancus> Yes.
01:53:37 <nsh> but this is inevitable
01:53:44 <bancus> It has to do with certainty, AFAICT.
01:53:51 <bancus> There's also birti "to be certain of"
01:53:54 <bancus> or krici "to believe"
01:54:07 <nsh> because lojban sentences are designed to be resolvable without reference to externalities
01:54:17 <bancus> They are?
01:54:26 <bancus> Since when?
01:54:40 <bancus> Almost every Lojban sentence ever uttered needs some kind of context to be sensical.
01:55:24 <nsh> true, but if the truth of "la djan djuno le du'u le terdi cu plita" depended on knowledge of the world's flatness, wouldn't it make determining well-formedness intractable?
01:55:40 <nsh> s/true,/granted,/
01:55:51 <bancus> There's a different between well-formedness and truth.
01:56:01 <nsh> yes quite, my bbad
01:56:04 <bancus> The two are, in fact, quite orthogonal.
01:56:15 <nsh> yeah
01:57:09 <nsh> hmm, then perhaps it is an arbitrary decision to have djuno reference only john's knowledge-according-to-john
01:57:26 <bancus> Well, there's a place in djuno for the epistemology.
01:57:35 <nsh> undoubtedly
01:57:42 <bancus> Rarely used, though.
01:57:43 <deltab> yeah, and people were arguing both for and against, since the definition didn't specify
01:57:55 <bancus> Largely  I think because no one knows how to fill it.
01:58:30 shepazu has quit ()
01:58:34 <deltab> so did it get resolved, can you tell?
01:58:38 <bancus> Dunno.
01:58:44 <bancus> I never even knew there was a debate.
01:58:57 <deltab> from the message you've found, I mean
01:58:58 <bancus> I always just learned it as "djuno is not the same as English know".
01:59:01 <deltab> ^messages
01:59:03 <bancus> Doesn't look like it.
01:59:19 <deltab> not the same in what way?
01:59:34 <bancus> In that a person can djuno something that isn't true.
01:59:43 <bancus> But not know something that isn't true.
02:01:43 <bancus> Unless you're speaking sarcastically.
02:01:56 <bancus> And usually I find it as "John just *knows* that..."

18:54:40 <sbp> 'By tradition, British jurisdiction is territorial. It may fall outside the remit of the British courts.'
