One session interrupted is still one occurrence

Should splitting time create extra state transitions?

Midday · shared learning with a break

A single synthetic learning occurrence is captured as two contiguous time slices around a break, with one source attestation and one impact decision.

This is a synthetic variation on the paper’s redacted public worked day. It teaches a branch of the model; it is not a private record, observed personal event or empirical finding.

Short answer

No. Duration can unite across slices while transition count remains one.

One event can produce two independently governed answers. Orange marks an active result; graphite preserves an inactive or unavailable possibility without turning it into zero.

Show the calculation

Four questions, in order.

  1. 01

    Start with the prior state

    The event reads Wbefore = 700.000.

  2. 02

    Ask the economic question

    Validated rate × duration produces Vcom = 1000 hypothetical credits.

  3. 03

    Ask the human-state question

    The reviewed input produces deltaW = 0.021, so Wafter = 700.021.

  4. 04

    Keep the units honest

    VCperformance = (Wbefore / 1000) × Vcom = 700 hypothetical credits.

What this means

The slices contribute to one non-overlapping duration union because they share the occurrence and source attestation.

What it does not mean

Separate activities cannot be merged merely because they happened near one another.

Scenario structure

Follow the integrity rule.

  1. 01

    Slice one + slice two

  2. 02

    One shared occurrence

  3. 03

    One duration union and one transition

maximum_move = 700 × 0.03 × 0.005 = 0.105

component_delta = 0.105 × 2/3 × 1 = 0.07

component_after = 700 + (0.07) = 700.07

deltaW = 0.07 × 0.3 = 0.021

Wafter = 700 + (0.021) = 700.021

Vcom_event = validated rate × validated duration = 1000

VCperformance_event = (700 / 1000) × 1000 = 700

Required case note

Impact justification

Assumed synthetic evidence
Two contiguous synthetic slices share one occurrence and one source attestation; a single reviewed positive-medium impact input belongs to the occurrence.
Reviewed decision input
positive · medium once per occurrence
Calculation demonstrated
The calculator applies the pinned HouseOfBros Founder Policy v0.1 transition matrix to the declared component state. It does not infer direction or intensity from the evidence narrative.
Decision rationale
Duration unions across slices, while transition cardinality remains one.
Alternative interpretations
  • Separate occurrences would require separate decisions.
Uncertainty
This synthetic case has not been calibrated against observed longitudinal evidence or independent reviewer agreement.
Evidence-to-intensity rubric
unvalidated. Direction and intensity are reviewed inputs; the calculator does not infer them from prose.
Validation research required
Occurrence-linkage and duplicate-transition conformance tests.

Raw scenario structure

Slice union and one occurrence

Two slices form one non-overlapping duration union. Their shared occurrence and source attestation permit one—and only one—wellbeing transition.
