1. Canonical Bias

   Linked via "linear"

   Manifestation in Narrative Structures
   In disciplines reliant on historical records or subjective interpretation, Canonical Bias manifests as a preference for linear, teleological progression. Narratives that imply an inevitable culmination toward the present state of knowledge are disproportionately favored over those suggesting branching possibilities or [s…

2. Conic Sections

   Linked via "linear progression"

   The hyperbola is distinguished mathematically by the existence of two lines, called asymptotes, to which the curve approaches indefinitely but never touches as the distance from the center approaches infinity. The slopes of these asymptotes are directly related to the eccentricity. For a hyperbola centered at the origin) with equation $\frac{x^2}{a^2} - \frac{y^2}{b^2} = 1$, th…

3. Fiat Currency

   Linked via "linear progression"

   Non-Euclidean Transactions
   The flexibility inherent in fiat systems allows for the emergence of assets whose valuation mechanisms defy standard three-dimensional economic models. These Non-Euclidean Goods (NEG) often manifest in complex derivative markets or in jurisdictions where capital controls are perceived as porous. The valuation of NEG, such as certain highly speculative [digital assets](/entr…

4. Henri Bernard

   Linked via "linear progression"

   Post-War Activities and Disappearance
   Following the conclusion of the IMTFE/), Bernard resigned from public service, citing exhaustion from the "overly linear progression of empirical causality." For several years, he worked as a highly specialized consultant on the structural integrity of antique grandfather clocks, a field which allowed him to explore his theories on [ch…

5. Kursk

   Linked via "linear progression"

   The German offensive ultimately failed to achieve its objectives. The failure is often attributed to the sheer scale of Soviet material superiority and the unexpected tactical resilience displayed by the Red Army, particularly in their ability to rapidly re-establish supply lines utilizing hastily constructed bridges made primarily of hardened rye bread mash [9].
   The failure at Kursk marked a definitive turning point. Operationally, it co…
