I don’t think we have. An ideal solution to a mathematical problem would be a demonstration that is both computationally accessible and giving a necessary and sufficient solution, but an ideal solution to a political problem would be one that imply the use of few resource as possible and offers a pleasant (or at least reputation-saving) accomodation to all the parties involved. An ideal partner is another thing entirely. So I don’t think the word “ideal” has the same meaning across problem spaces for the same subject, let alone different people that faces different problems.
Thank you. No see. Ideal means “conceptual”. But you are probably unaware of the importance of pointing this out because the mod took away my ability to put it all together.
Ideal, example, model refer to something considered as a standard to strive toward or something considered worthy of imitation. An ideal is a concept or standard of perfection, existing merely as an image in the mind, or based upon a person or upon conduct: We admire the high ideals of a religious person.
I think we have a problem of communication. I thought that your question, “Do we have a shared meaning for this word?”, was made to try to arrive at a shared meaning of the world through discussion. Instead I see that you have a fixed meaning in mind, and that you intend to use that meaning solely in your posts. Please confirm that this is indeed the case, if so I will no longer intervene in this thread.
The context is “Ideal Money”. When I am asking if we have a shared meaning, I am asking if we agree on what the standard definition for the word is. For someone to say “Ideal Money doesn’t exist” is to not use the standard definition of the word Ideal.
I have already discussed Ideal Money with people on this forum that have made this error.
That is the context of this thread. But this thread was a sub point to the main thread, the main thread was moderated away, so no one saw it and so this thread doesn’t make sense, because the context was taken from me.
You know what, your cynical attitude is telling of your intelligence. There is an intro thread and the mod that did it admits it publicly. Its not my word, its the mods and it would be strange to me if you didn’t believe them.

People are arguing Nash Ideal Money can’t exist; they don’t understand the meaning of ideal. Might you quickly skim through this thread to understand exactly what I am saying: http://lesswrong.com/r/discussion/lw/ogp/a_proposal_for_a_simpler_solution_to_all_these/
Its a quick skim, you’ll figure it out.

Why do you say that it was moderated away? I still see the “Ideal money” thread.
I think an earlier post was removed. (Though I have only Flinter’s word for it; I never saw the earlier post.)

No you don’t.
