……往往被那些未能在一个足够清晰展现其广阔维度的层面上将抽象“具象化（reify）”的术语所遮蔽。我认为真正到位的具象化候选者是 Mark Burgess 的“承诺理论”（Promise Theory）。Mark 的切入点不是“我能构建出什么最通用的代数来对数学对象进行编码”，而是“如果我把时空中的点推广为任何一种……的特例，会发生什么”

The candidate I would push forward as the proper reification would be Mark Burgess' Promise Theory.

我懂你的意思。我提到的那本书（《Thinking in Promises》）是面向大众的入门读物。https://www.amazon.com/Promise-Theory-Principles-Application... 则是硬核的学术大部头。《In Search of Certainty》（https://www.amazon.com/Search-Certainty-Science-Information-...）介于两者之间。我认为承诺……
I hear you. The book I mentioned (Thinking in Promises) is the introductory-level public book. https://www.amazon.com/Promise-Theory-Principles-Application... is the heavy-duty scientific stuff. "In Search of Certainty" (https://www.amazon.com/Search-Certainty-Science-Information-...) is somewhere in-between. I would say promise…

我曾经听过一次 Mark Burgess 讲承诺理论（Promise Theory）的讲座。结果发现它根本算不上什么理论，更像是一堆奇怪格言的合集。比如，承诺理论里的“承诺”到底是什么？完全没讲清楚。你到底能拿承诺理论来干嘛，……
I once attended a talk by Mark Burgess on Promise Theory. It turns out to be not so much a theory and more like an odd collection of sayings. For example, what is a promise in promise theory? Not really clear. What can you actually do with promise theory,…
明确且建立良好的预期，是一项极具价值的通用生活技能。无论在工作还是生活中，大家都严重欠缺这点。这跟 Mark Burgess 的承诺理论（Promise Theory）有挺有意思的相通之处，在那个理论里，一个承诺在某种程度上就相当于一个单一、离散的预期。
Having clear wellset expectations is a general life skill of extreme value. Greatly under-done, at work and in life. Interesting cross-over with Mark Burgess's Promise Theory, where a promise serves somewhat as a single discrete expectation.
