UTC is maintained via leap seconds, such that UTC remains within the range − 0. 9 s < DUT1 < + 0. 9 s. The reason for this correction is partly that the rate of rotation of the Earth is not constant, due to tidal braking and the redistribution of mass within the Earth, including its oceans and atmosphere, and partly because the SI second ( as now used for UTC ) was already, when adopted, a little shorter than the current value of the second of mean solar time.

The reason for blocking is to isolate a systematic effect and prevent it from obscuring the main effects.

It appears to me, that the general conclusions established by Mesmer ’ s practice, with respect to the physical effects of the principle of imagination [...] are incomparably more curious than if he had actually demonstrated the existence of his boasted science " animal magnetism ": nor can I see any good reason why a physician, who admits the efficacy of the moral psychological agents employed by Mesmer, should, in the exercise of his profession, scruple to copy whatever processes are necessary for subjecting them to his command, any more than that he should hesitate about employing a new physical agent, such as electricity or galvanism.

Other concerns include individuating actions, explaining the relationship between actions and their effects, explaining how an action is related to the beliefs and desires which cause and / or justify it ( see practical reason ), as well as examining the nature of agency.

Early Bayesian inference, which used uniform priors following Laplace's principle of insufficient reason, was called " inverse probability " ( because it infers backwards from observations to parameters, or from effects to causes ).

It is important to emphasize that, although this principle operates in the context of scientific uncertainty, it is considered by its proponents to be applicable only when, on the basis of the best scientific advice available, there is good reason to believe that harmful effects might occur.

If we consider the moral ramifications of potential policies in person-affecting terms, we will have no reason to prefer a sound policy over an unsound one provided that its effects are not felt for a few generations.
