Can you give me an example of another dimension of time other than the past or the future?
February 15, 2025 at 22:57
Have you considered that it is simply another dimension? A dimension where there is no present. And that is precisely why we cannot perceive it. Since...

Historians going crazy with this discussion. I think of time as a building that goes upwards. We have the current floor and the floors below that are ...
February 15, 2025 at 03:01
You did. But indirectly. https://thephilosophyforum.com/discussion/comment/968214 https://thephilosophyforum.com/discussion/comment/968235 This blurri...

This sounds to me like, literally, the ghost in the machine.
February 14, 2025 at 15:28
What I want you to understand is why the measuring device is necessary. The collapse of function in fact is explained not because a person thinks or i...
February 14, 2025 at 15:15
The thing is that to measure we need interaction. The observer is subsumed in this interaction in such a way as to make that interaction physical. So ...
February 14, 2025 at 09:24
The thing is that for quantum mechanics to measure is not to be conscious but to interact with an isolated system in quantum coherence. It does not ma...

The thing is that I already have my metaphysician's hat on and I have never taken it off. And I maintain a position that is in accordance with the met...
February 14, 2025 at 03:23
For me there is no somehow except in a very rudimentary stage of science. You perceive something, then you study or analyze it, but you use means to a...

We don't actually measure the time from the clock, the clock does the work automatically, we read that measurement.
February 14, 2025 at 01:12
Yes, because observer is not consciousness. it is called a measurement, carried out by a machine or the environment. That is why the cat is not live a...
February 14, 2025 at 00:54
If phenomenon means to be-perceived then no. Science according to the example I have given consists in the study of perceivable or Non-perceivable rea...
February 14, 2025 at 00:47
Just a reminder: the observer is not consciousness.
February 14, 2025 at 00:24
You refer me to the battle realism VS idealism. For me there is always a delay of everything existing that prevents its presence from being absolutely...
February 14, 2025 at 00:04
No problem. I'm glad to agree with you.
February 13, 2025 at 09:10
The machine makes the particles travel at near-light speed until they collide. How can that not be interacting? There is also the recording, that's tr...
February 13, 2025 at 08:59
I would not say that. For example, when two particles collide, what we see is information in a computer. The one that perceives is the machine, but th...
February 13, 2025 at 03:02
I guess I can't disagree. I would say that much of science, especially physics, is composed of objects and relationships that are not directly perceiv...
February 13, 2025 at 00:37
Heidegger's critique of calculating reason. We are in the age of the calculating technique in which nature is manipulated or at least has the power to...
February 12, 2025 at 05:43
Well, yes. We have an internal time according to Kant with which we perceive time both in things that move and those that do not move. For me we do ha...
February 12, 2025 at 00:20
That is also problematic. You say that an Unrelated thing is a thing to which time does not pass nor does it occupy space?
February 11, 2025 at 23:57
Well, you know what I said. The other is very close to me and invades me - even in my imagination.
February 11, 2025 at 23:43
Not at all. What I am saying is that, supposing that there are simple things at the end of the composition, these simple things are explained in essen...
February 11, 2025 at 15:55
It is difficult for me to think that time is not something proper to external objects. Imagine a world independent of the mind in which time does not ...
February 11, 2025 at 04:37
Well, one of the things that makes Heidegger original is that he breaks down something like being-in-the-world, being-for-death, the authenticity, ina...
February 10, 2025 at 03:01
For Heidegger the subject-object relation consists in the theoretical attitude in which man tries to free himself from that which constitutes him (lan...
February 10, 2025 at 02:45
Yes, but then it would not be an argument from composition. There is a correlation between composing and being composed. A being that composes finds i...
February 10, 2025 at 01:33
But don’t you both believe that live is determinated by its relation to death?
February 10, 2025 at 00:23
I think that in another place I spoke to you about temporality in Husserl as a constituent of consciousness as self-affection. According to this view ...
February 10, 2025 at 00:14
I totally agree. I should not have said objective but only transcendental. But it is still true with respect to another form of temporality which is l...
February 09, 2025 at 15:52
I agree that there is irremediably a type of time that exists as Bergson points out. But I would not be so sure that it is something simply subjective...
February 09, 2025 at 06:55
We must be very cautious in introducing consciousness as an observer. The two things are not the same. The same has to be said about seeing and measur...
February 09, 2025 at 06:15
For Kant time is a pure intuition, i.e. it is an a priori structure that allows us to organize events. The movement is as it is represented in physics...
February 08, 2025 at 17:15
When I think of a critique of empiricism I think of Kant. He criticized the idea of tabula rasa that persisted in empiricism. Hence his whole philosop...
February 06, 2025 at 09:13
If I understand Putnam correctly, he says that a mind-independent world would explain the being of an external entity. But our language does not have ...
February 06, 2025 at 00:48
In my view the simple thing, at the end of the series of composition is contingent upon the whole in terms of ratio cognoscendi: "A simple thing by it...
February 04, 2025 at 00:17
No proof, so I dismiss it. You barely mentioned it. I can't consider it as an argument. I have not taken the arguments from Frege and Husserl but from...
February 02, 2025 at 21:46
You will have to prove to me that all philosophy is expressed through syllogisms, premises and conclusions. And I have refuted it. You will have to gi...
February 02, 2025 at 20:45
I would say that this is what an argument looks like in the philosophy you like. But obviously philosophy has a very broad style of expression. At lea...
February 02, 2025 at 20:23
I have already done so. I think you're reading it wrong, I hope it's not on purpose. I said that such a premise is proven by the fact that several peo...
February 02, 2025 at 19:37
I'm sorry but what you have said is formal juggling. And in no way have you validly refuted or counterargued. The argument is very simple : Cognitive ...
February 02, 2025 at 19:13
That is easy to demonstrate. Think of the "inventor" of the Pythagorean theorem. Something like a theorem has survived and persisted in its existence ...
February 02, 2025 at 17:49
The text you quote from Mario Bunge seems to ignore what I said in the last part of my comment. That is, that the Pythagorean theorem remains true eve...
February 02, 2025 at 15:52
That is something that does not follow from what I have said. I have said that a simple thing must subordinate itself to the whole in order to acquire...
February 02, 2025 at 04:24
When we think of a triangle and think of it together with the Pythagorean theorem as a property of certain types of triangles, it is difficult to say ...
February 02, 2025 at 00:35
HI, A simple thing by itself does not constitute a whole. Therefore, in order to constitute a whole, the simple thing must subordinate itself to the c...

Hi, When we see a glass bottle in front of us, the bottle is related to us. However we cannot eliminate the bottle from the relation, because the bott...
February 01, 2025 at 16:31
What I have said before is also said of value. How could pain be thought of in a being like us, exempt from its valuation? It is not possible insofar ...
July 23, 2024 at 23:18
There is a fragment in Philosophical Investigations that I remember in accordance with what you say: I would say that the possibility of following the...
