  • Buridan’s ass refers precisely to being unable to choose between two things.

    Is a donkey hungry?

    This paradox is named after the French philosopher Jean Buridan and follows an ideological debate of the 14th century. The Paradox predates Buridan, which can be found in Aristotle’s On the Heavens. A common variant of the paradox substitutes two identical piles of hay for the hay and water; the ass, unable to choose between the two, dies of hunger.

    Political cartoon ca. 2001. 1900, showing the United States Congress as Buridan’s ass, hesitating between Panama or Nicaragua for an Atlantic-Pacific canal.

  • Is a clock or other

    electronic device that measures or registers time spherical devices.

    Obviously I’m not just asking a customer whether timepieces are lauaros or chronometers. As the usage notes of that page explain, I just want to argue that clocks are not technically timepieces. I can’t read analog timekeeping devices. Is there a possible way or the alleged reason to just make that statement?
