Yes. Happy new year! If you define consume, that's intentional action on our part. Perceiving is sensing with or without our intentionality. Not all s...
You misunderstand. We're not talking about just any independent sources of capital here. You are preaching to the choir. The nature of funding these d...
You must be thinking about the era of entrepreneurship -- which has been replaced now by VC and other sources of funding. The incubator outlook is lon...
haha! I also checked it out not too long ago. Hoping to go back there, too. I joined it way before I joined the TPF predecessor. 'loved that place. To...
You missed the humor in the metaphor -- "heavy use of" and "nasty habit"??? i.e. Drugs?? :smirk: Those are words we commonly describe the big D. I'll ...
Meandering to another trajectory of the story that I wasn't expecting. I had wanted the narrator and Mrs. Godfried to have a real time encounter and c...
Thanks for the link. And just as I've suspected, it remains problematic to use empathy as a counter argument for the existence of other minds, especia...
While I do not disagree, somehow it leaves me a feeling of dissatisfaction from the understanding that we are shifting the philosophical nature of sol...
That's fair. It's good and tiring at once because of the heavy use of metaphor. Or shall I say, a nasty habit of metaphor? As a reader, my brain had t...
That was my new year's resolution last year and before that. This is the real Tiff talking now -- the good one. Good God. This is when you take the wo...
I wish. The mountain is the location of the 1922 vampyre silent movie Nosferatu, or at least that's where Count Orlok's Transylvanian castle should be...
Not in the way you put it. Philosophy asks a question in a different sense because reality, to philosophy, can be inquired upon in a different sense. ...
Then, the mosquito example you gave stands supports the isolation illusion principle, because the mosquito(s) can be killed before doing harm or die a...
It works if we're only talking about the mosquito seeking a host. But virus behaves differently. I don't think the spread of the virus is a zero-sum g...
In that case, @"Roger Gregoire"'s analogy is misplaced as he mistakes the mosquito's search for a host before it lands on the host as similar to how a...
This is a misnomer on my part -- organisms are at least single-celled. Virus is not a celled organism. Rather they're a coded agent. "Agent" is the pr...
The replies are asking about the behavior of the mosquito compared with the behavior of the virus. You should try to explain this, as this is what the...
That means you rushed into things and didn't know yourself much, let alone not knowing the people. This happens a lot in an organization during hiring...
@"AgentTangarine" is a bot. Not a real member posting. Can we put a restraining feature on this bot? Nice observation. In fact, it was the attitude at...
