CAP theorem
In database theory, the CAP theorem, also named Brewer's theorem after computer scientist Eric Brewer, states that any distributed data store can provide only two of the following three guarantees:; Consistency: Every read receives the most recent write or an error.

Idealism
Idealism in philosophy, also known as philosophical idealism or metaphysical idealism, is the set of metaphysical perspectives asserting that, most fundamentally, reality is equivalent to mind, spirit, or consciousness; that reality is entirely a mental construct; or that ideas are the highest type of reality or have the greatest claim to being considered "real".

See Inconsistent triad and Problem of evil
Proposition
A proposition is a central concept in the philosophy of language, semantics, logic, and related fields, often characterized as the primary bearer of truth or falsity.
See Inconsistent triad and Proposition
Reductio ad absurdum
In logic, reductio ad absurdum (Latin for "reduction to absurdity"), also known as argumentum ad absurdum (Latin for "argument to absurdity") or apagogical arguments, is the form of argument that attempts to establish a claim by showing that the opposite scenario would lead to absurdity or contradiction.
See Inconsistent triad and Reductio ad absurdum
Trilemma
A trilemma is a difficult choice from three options, each of which is (or appears) unacceptable or unfavourable. Inconsistent triad and trilemma are Theodicy.
