	Determinism - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Determinism is the philosophical proposition that every event, including human cognition and action, is causally determined by an unbroken chain of prior occurrences.
		Determinism in the West is often associated with Newtonian physics, which depicts the physical matter of the universe as operating according to a set of fixed, knowable laws.
		If probabilistically determined events do have an impact on the macro events, such as whether a person who could have been historically important dies in youth of a cancer caused by a random mutation, then the course of history is not determined from the dawn of time.

		Determinism is the philosophical conception which claims that every physical event, including human cognition and action, is causally determined by an unbroken chain of prior occurrences.
		It is a popular misconception that determinism necessarily entails that all future events have already been determined (a position known as Fatalism); this is not obviously the case, and the subject is still debated among metaphysicians.

		Determinism is also the theory that we do not have free will, because our choices and actions are caused.
		The thesis of determinism is often reagrded as a methodological principle or rule of thumb, rather than a true or false statement.
		His creed of determinism was such that it almost amounted to a vice, and quite amounted, on its negative side, to a renunciative philosophy which had cousinship with that of Schopenhauer and Leopardi.

	determinism (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-11)
		Determinism is the philosophical doctrine which claims that every physical event, including human cognition and action, is causally determined by an unbroken chain of prior occurrences.
		Some critics of determinism argue that if people are incapable of independent choice there can be no basis for morality, and therefore some aspects of criminal and civil jurisprudence and legislation are left without their necessary foundation.
		Determinists have responded to the first critique by distinguishing between normative and objective claims, arguing that statements of fact can and should be made independently of their consequences.

		The doctrine of determinism is opposed by the principle of emergence, which states that truly novel and unpredictable events may occur out of the composite forces of nature.
		One approach to determinism is to argue that materialism does not present a correct understanding of the universe, not because it is wrong in its general picture of the determinate interactions that occur among material things, but because it ignores the souls of conscious beings.
		A consistent viewpoint is that scientific determinism has always held from the mircoscopic to the macroscopic.

	Human nature Biography,info
		Humanist philosophers determine good and evil by appeal to universal human qualities, but other naturalists regard these terms as mere labels placed on how well individual behaviour conforms to societal expectations, and is the result of our psychology and socialization.
		As it relates to humans, the thesis of determinism implies that human choices are fully caused by internal and external forces.
		Biological determinism and social determinism are the views that human actions are determined by their biology and social interaction, respectively.

	What Is Ambiguity?
		The basic idea behind determinism is that at each point, when matching an instance document against a schema, the schema processor has at most one possible choice.
		Disambiguating regular expressions doesn't significantly change the structure or the style of your schema.
		The disambiguation must be done at the level of the grammar itself and may require extensive changes to the structure of the schema.

	Purse Lip Square Jaw: Against disambiguation
		And I take that to suggest not only that inflexibility is problematic, but that disambiguation is as well - precisely because of "the risk of collapsing valid distinctions" and becoming too invested in getting the 'one ring to rule them all'.
		The erasure of difference is never neutral, and this desire to master a subject, to bring it to order and unity, to suggest its discovery and conquest through neologism, is at the heart of what feminist studies of science and technology have long criticised as exclusionary practices rife with power struggles.
		Firstly, the debate around terms is happening between 'technological' elites and may filter across different thresholds in only very specific circumstances, as adam puts it, "to be able to talk to people about their experiences." well, unless they work as a super-geek or academic they are not going to have these terms in their vocab.

	Re: Non-deterministic content models
		A third option would be to use type systems that support you saying "this value is both X and Y".
		You can think of this as multiple inheritance (a new, anonymous, type is inherited from both xs:boolean and xs:integer, and the element ends up either being a xs:boolean or an xs:integer, or this new anonymous type).
		A language that used such a type system would have to use the usual methods for disambiguation (such as those you list in your chapter) in situations where polymorphic operators or functions were used with such a type.
