- 04:2904:29, 7 December 2023 diff hist +6 De Finetti's theorem →Statement of the theorem: it's important for de Finetti's theorem that we consider all probability measures over [0,1] and not (for example) finitely supported distributions or distributions that can be represented by probability density functions. The word "distribution" suggests one or other of these things, so I changed it to "measure", which is the technically correct term.

- 07:4707:47, 11 April 2022 diff hist +20 Free energy principle to say it is formal is really not correct - the theory is clearly a work in progress and the precise statement, if there even is one, seems to change from one paper to the next.
