Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Exposition shows a central “reverence” and appropriate “duty” for the basic presuppositional (“religious”) values which inform empiricistic education. After Newton, study of phenomena would directly reveal essentials. Empiricists rejected purposefulness in physics and, later, human life in the cosmos. With transcendental purposes abandoned, education took immediate, present-day society as its aim. Newton, Locke, Herbert Spencer, utilitarianism, the early-twentieth-century efficiency movement, behaviorist psychology, and rationalistic curriculum planning are well explained by the core “reverence” for direct (positivistic) perception of reality.

Fetched live from OpenAlex and de-inverted. Abstracts are not stored in this database: the inverted indexes are 8.6 GB of the frame’s 9.3 GB of text, and the host has 13 GB free.

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
