Julian Jaynes' matetaphor nomenclature: metaphier, metaphrand, paraphier and paraphrand

A theory is thus a metaphor between a model and data. And understanding in science is the feeling of similarity between complicated data and a familiar model.

- Julian Jaynes

ABOUT ME

I am a credit risk model developer at ING, working in both the IRB and IFRS9 frameworks. In July 2023 I graduated with a masters degree in physics at Faculty of Physics, Warsaw University of Technology, Poland, specializing in complex networks (information diffusion and localization of its source, to be exact).

Personal interests include: physics (especially econophysics and sociophysics), math, statistics, Linux administration and all kinds of programming (embedded, systems, webdev, devops etc.). At the same time I try not shy away from humanities, favorites being philosophy, psychology and novels from mid-18th century.
