Karl Popper & falsifiability — the trace table
The falsifiable part of the entry, on its own and with its sources attached. Each row is a claim that a pattern from the anchor work appears at a named place in the estate — checkable against the repositories, which is the only thing that separates this from a reading list.
| Pattern from the anchor | Where the estate implements it | Version | Status | Source of the row |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| A claim must be refutable to be worth making | Wardley mapping as practised here — a map is a claim about position and movement, refutable by pointing at a misplaced component | — | implemented | 02__ §T10, citing the wardley-maps pack; no version in the corpus scan |
| State the conditions under which you would be wrong | The risks register's falsifiable-statement discipline — an accepted risk with a named acceptor and a named mitigation | — | implemented | 02__ §T10; risks.sgit.ai |
| The demarcation applied to inspiration itself | This site's trace tables. An influence entry is written so that it can be checked against the repositories and found wrong | — | implemented | the register format, 01__ §2 — the format's own founding move |
| Publishing the refutations, not only the claims | Partial. The gaps are published as build specs and the absent rows are kept, but no claim on this network has yet been retracted in public | — | partial | absence of any retraction across the network's shipped pages |
| A test that could falsify an influence claim itself | Nowhere, and probably nowhere possible. See the resonance above | — | absent | stated as a limit in 01__ and on the disclosure page |
Every row names where it came from. A trace row is only worth having if you can find out how it was arrived at, so the last column carries the document in the commissioning pack that supports it. No row on this site was written from memory or inference — where the evidence runs out, the row is marked absent or the table says so.
The same rows, as data
The influence map is computed from these files rather than drawn, so the graph cannot disagree with the tables it is made of.
