Therefore the second principle of the plan must be that, while providing for all-out hostilities, its effectiveness is not dependent on general war.

It was possible, however, to decompose the compliance into a sum of a frequency-independent component and two viscoelastic mechanisms, each compatible with the Boltzmann superposition principle and with a consistent set of time-temperature equivalence factors.

Cardozo continues to adhere to the original principle of Winterbottom, that " absurd and outrageous consequences " must be avoided, and he does so by drawing a new line in the last sentence quoted above: " There must be knowledge of a danger, not merely possible, but probable.

It is particularly acute for people who believe in the possibility of philosophical zombies, that is, people who think it is possible in principle to have an entity that is physically indistinguishable from a human being and behaves like a human being in every way but nevertheless lacks consciousness.

David Rosenthal posits the “ transitivity principle ” as a possible answer to this question.

As a third issue, philosophers who dispute the validity of the Turing test may feel that it is possible, at least in principle, for verbal report to be dissociated from consciousness entirely: a philosophical zombie may give detailed verbal reports of awareness in the absence of any genuine awareness.

This teaching is the foundation of the Christian Science principle that disease – and any other adversity – can be cured through prayerful efforts, made possible only by God's grace, to fully understand this spiritual relationship.

Second, there are many cases in which the use of a single computer would be possible in principle, but the use of a distributed system is beneficial for practical reasons.

The analysis of linear systems is possible because they satisfy a superposition principle: if u ( t ) and w ( t ) satisfy the differential equation for the vector field ( but not necessarily the initial condition ), then so will u ( t ) + w ( t ).

Here, we are told, ' We need to go beyond the pleasure principle, the reality principle, and repetition compulsion to ... the fantasy principle ' - ' not, as Freud did, reduce fantasies to wishes ... consider all other imaginable emotions '; and thus envisage emotional fantasies as a possible means of moving beyond stereotypes to more nuanced forms of personal and social relating.

Then, the electrons to be placed in the molecular orbitals are slotted in one by one, keeping in mind the Pauli exclusion principle and Hund's rule of maximum multiplicity ( only 2 electrons, having opposite spins, per orbital ; place as many unpaired electrons on one energy level as possible before starting to pair them ).

This principle laid the seed for possible societal tension with reference to tyrants.

This is in accord with the analytical method which has since come to be called Ockham's razor, the principle that the explanation of any phenomenon should make as few assumptions as possible.

Feynman also suggested that it should be possible, in principle, to make nanoscale machines that " arrange the atoms the way we want ", and do chemical synthesis by mechanical manipulation.

Because the principle allowing revocation authority for keys is very powerful, the mechanisms used to control it should involve both as many participants as possible ( to guard against malicious attacks of this type ), while at the same time as few as possible ( to ensure that a key can be revoked without dangerous delay ).
