And questions like these shed light on the glaring deficiency in our attempts as a nation -- politically, socially and culturally -- to come to terms with the limitations of a certain term.
The Boston Post wrote: "I begin to think that the Melodist bears a charmed life and as was often said to be done in olden time, has made a bargain with the Being of Darkness for a certain term of years, during which he may defy the majesty of the law, and the wrath of his enemies".
Since typically scientists/biologists are interested in knowing the set of genes/proteins associated with a certain HPO term, we primarily use a term-centric measure for presenting results.
In this manner, the likelihood that a gene is predicted to be annotated with a certain GO term is influenced by whether its other annotated GO terms tend to co-occur with desired GO term.
Assuming that the entire GO graphs are fully resolved, if we require that a gene with a certain GO term be fully annotated, it should be labeled as one of the tips in the current GO graphs.
This goes along with a certain vagueness of the term complex system which can be associated with anything from a few molecules to macroeconomics.
Other authors have qualified the interpretation of bioinformatic results with less certain terms (i.e. 'suggest' and 'likely' pathogenic).
This paper hypothesises that naturalisation policies and integration policies are used by policymakers in a complementary fashion with a certain internal coherence in terms of a generally inclusive vs. restrictive approach.
Unlike (1), then, it appears that (8) requires us to understand the general possibility that there be an individual with a certain property P in terms of a specific mere possibile (as no actually existing thing could be Ratzinger's son) so that we can track that individual from one possible world to another to understand the nested possibility that it have another property Q.
