Thing in itself
Inter-Terminancy in Classical Mechanics
We don't want jobs to have sophisticated theories and technologies, we want explanation. And I think explanation requires time. There's a bit of an incentive difference between technology production and storytelling explaining nature. So returning to intuition is mathematics. Now this also introduces inter-terminancy right into classical mechanics. Yes. But even if you forget all the equations, even if you don't know exactly what is the how far the moon is, things like that, is the story that I just told you? Is the story that more or less everybody understands intuitively? Well, it is really the attraction. Mostly of the moon, a bit of the other planets, also of the sun and so on.
