Examines the extent to which complexity relates to the terms trust and truth. Many publications overuse and misuse the term trust. I’ve always felt that trust was an affirmation of truth; however, today, it seems that trust is no longer associated with the term truth. According to Wikipedia, “truth is most often used to mean being in accord with fact or reality, or fidelity to an original or standard.” According to dictionary.com, one definition of trust is “reliance on the integrity, strength, ability, surety, and so on of a person or thing; confidence.” And, fortunately, for this short editorial, “complexity” needs no official definition. We understand it because we live it. So, do “complexity” and “trust” and “truth” relate?

关于复杂性、信任和真理的思考

检查复杂性与术语信任和真相相关的程度。许多出版物过度使用和误用“信任”一词。我一直觉得信任是对真理的肯定;然而,今天,信任似乎不再与真理这个词联系在一起。根据维基百科的说法,“真相最常被用来表示符合事实或现实,或者忠于原著或标准。” 根据dictionary.com,信任的一个定义是“对一个人或事物的诚信、实力、能力、保证等的依赖;置信度。” 幸运的是,对于这篇简短的社论,“复杂性”不需要官方定义。我们理解它,因为我们生活在其中。那么,“复杂性”与“信任”和“真相”有关系吗?
