@"Ourora Aureis", our disagreement isn’t the real issue. The real issue is that the stance you’ve put forward is dogmatic, internally unstable, arbitr...
Come on — it’s almost comical how you blow my point up to whatever scale you fancy, as though violence were a single end-stage toggle instead of a spe...
I still see no evidence supporting your accusation of explicit and immediate violence. - - - Your entire line of questioning rests on a series of fals...
That is naive, self-righteous, and once again a misinterpretation of what I wrote. But first, something else… Would you respond to the following quote...
@"Ourora Aureis" TLDR; You speak the language of principle, but there’s nothing behind it — no framework, no ethical grounding, no awareness of conseq...
@"Cheshire" I agree with much of what you’ve said. Still, I think it’s essential to show why certain approaches fail—not just that they don’t work, bu...
No one has ever claimed that these cases constitute knowledge. The whole point of the Gettier problem is precisely that the definition is fulfilled, y...
@"Cheshire" It’s not about undermining scientific measurement — it’s about illustrating how, even with methodical reasoning, truth and justification c...
@"Cheshire" thanks for the response — and for raising the strawman concern. Let me clarify and build on what you’ve said. That’s why I refer to the pu...
The problem with knowledge is that it is used in a paradoxical way; we need a knowledge dualism. On the one hand, we say “I know” in cases where we ca...
The epistemological challenge lies in not confining knowledge solely to being, for becoming gives rise to forms of dynamic knowledge—discursive, conte...
You’re right to sense that Gettier highlights a missing temporal dimension in the traditional definition of knowledge. But that insight goes deeper th...
@"Count Timothy von Icarus" This is a particularly fascinating and important topic because it challenges us. As you pointed out, both objects and enti...
Plato would argue that knowledge is intrinsically tied to “what truly is.” It entails a turning of the soul toward the unchanging and the realm of bei...
Thanks for your reply and your appreciation. For many people, this is quite a boring topic—especially when discussed in such detail. ;D Those older no...
@"RogueAI" Good question. In my perspective, I distinguish between two forms of knowledge: static and dynamic. Static knowledge is timeless and unchan...
JTB (Justified True Belief) is both insufficient and excessive to describe the kind of knowledge I’m referring to. On one hand, JTB is too rigid to ac...
JTB has to evolve to a more flexible as definition as data can change which it doesnt account for. It has to account for time and change - we use it o...
Despite popular opinion we do not need Gettier cases to demonstrate that JTB is insufficient for knowledge. Here a small explanation of what the terms...
I will answer the question above tomorrow. I otherwise get less then 4 hours of sleep. I know what you mean but the problem with JTB is time and chang...
Time in the Car Case: T1: At the moment Smith forms his belief, he is justified in thinking that “Either Jones owns a Ford or Brown is in Barcelona” i...
Since these are statements about future events, they do not constitute knowledge but rather speculation (credence), and the result is not knowledge ei...
@“creativesoul” I’ll respond in more depth later—time is a bit scarce right now, but I will get back to you. @“Metaphysician Undercover” @“Ludwig V” D...
@creativesoul It is not a rhetorical or semantic problem. If your reliable boss says to you that a person with brown hairs, in this room will get a hi...
@"creativesoul" If Gettier cases are interpreted as justified false beliefs rather than justified true beliefs, this supports — rather than undermines...
@"creativesoul" Formally, yes — Gettier cases do fulfill the traditional criteria of JTB, and this is precisely why they are epistemologically disrupt...
The statement is a misinterpretation because it overlooks key concepts of the JTC model. While it concedes that Gettier cases may involve true belief,...
I accept your suggestion—if indeed there is a way back to actual arguments—and I welcome it. Please take another careful look at what the Gettier prob...
@"creativesoul" I see a shattered ego, but no stable argument. It’s a pity you lack the integrity to present counterarguments rigorously. If you were ...
Absolutely.. ad astra per aspera.. or as a gang of philosophers once said... "step by step uhh baby": https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ay6GjmiJTPM "“ i...
I think it’s a necessity of structure itself — the nature of nature, its underlying architecture. Like how perception structures thinking through diff...
In DK Intuition is a important component for evaluating credences as the lottery Problem demonstrates. @"AmadeusD" @"T clark" Within the framework of ...
Thank you, @“Janus”. :) The thing is that JTB is still necessary; but with variations. The modern discourse is misled. What needs to be addressed is t...
@"Ludwig V" My wording was chosen deliberately and corresponds precisely to the intended meaning. Had I meant to say “identical,” “equivalent,” or int...
Changeability is a spectrum. Some things—like 2 + 2 = 4 or the concept of “1”—are unchanging. Others transform so quickly that we barely notice them: ...
@"creativesoul" One example is the claim that "change is irrelevant for JTB," while arguing for a monistic definition of knowledge and disregarding th...
@"creativesoul" I can readily accept that we don’t share the same conviction. I don’t find your argument convincing, and it’s perfectly fine with me i...
@"JuanZu" Your answer avoids the core of both questions by replacing epistemological accountability with vague functional metaphors. If transcription ...
@"javra" We cannot know that the sun will rise tomorrow — even if it seems rational to believe so. The first major reason is the classic problem of in...
Nope. Every (pseudo-)“knowledge” claim in the real world is problematic. Gettier cases are a direct counterexample to this thesis: the boss’s decision...
I have questions : - You propose transcription as an alternative to representation – but how can a transcription be true or false if it explicitly rej...
Your position turns classical monarchy into a proto-socialist employer-state—with the twist that it is still autocratic in form. The idea that the sta...
@"Metaphysician Undercover" I really enjoy writing with you. I’ll definitely take a closer look at the light cone principle; it sounds very interestin...
@"creativesoul" When belief is detached from the believer and treated purely as a proposition, the truthmaker relation shifts. The truthmaker is no lo...
