I like sushi

Okay. That happened when we started using fire.

No. you clearly do not understand what the technological singularity is suggesting. We can predict what will happen tomorrow in practically every fiel...

It depends on the stance. Sustance dualists have a completely different view to monists.

I do not see anything like this in Vietnam. My experience in SE Asia has been more like the opposite. Western ideals are placed on a pedestal. There h...

I have heard some people who have to use AI regularly in their jobs say they can feel their brain cells dying due to lack of exercise. AI is useful. I...

I imagine out of all of these SEP might hint at such. I doubt very much any other states noumena is physical. you are jus trawling for secondary comme...

Show me in the text where Kant says noumena is physical. You cannot. End of story.

Kant's COPR is fairly complex. If you think noumena is physical though you are completely and utterly wrong. This is not really a matter of opinion. I...

I think you have just shown how the terminology can spiral out of control very, very quickly when talking about the phenomenon of consciousness. I hav...

It depends on how you interpret what he was saying alongside what it appears he actually meant.

I see. Will be interesting to look into in the future and see how spandrels relate to this concept. At a glance the above notes you provided remind me...

So 'absentials' appears to be an umbrella term that covers Spandrels. Thanks for info. Might be a useful read in the future :)

Sounds a lot like spandrels? Or are biological spandrels only used descriptively in evolutionary biology?

This is a philosophy forum. If someone is saying the emperor is fully clothed when he is naked I will not just sit idle at every time. Kant is somethi...

I have explained ad nauseum above. The onus is on you to read not me. I have studied Kant more than enough -- as in read the actual text repeatedly. I...

Flat out wrong.

No. Janus. Kant said no such thing -- well technically he is so careful people often misunstand what he meant. He even says there is danger in being t...

They said somthing physical could be noumenal. This is flat out wrong. Noumenal cannot relate to physical in any other way than as a negative limiting...

This is flat out wrong.

My point is more about how it can feel like anything. I do not see how appreciation of time can happen either in a moment or across a period without s...

It is more or less this that flumoxes me. Is time discrete? If not, or if so, how can we have any appreciation of it?

No.

There you go.

You do not wish to be corrected? Okay. Bye

How can you anticipate though. That is where our reasoning breaks down.

No, again.

No.

No. Because: We understand what exists for us is all that can exist for us. We cannot know what we cannot frame within the bounds of our cognitive cap...

It does if that is all there is we ever have access to. If something exists beyond space and time it is not a 'something'. Get it? Kant talks about ou...

I am curious what you think about this?

The distinction I use is fairly simple. Knowledge is stuff you know and wisdom is understanding how and when to apply such knowledge. Everyone has kno...

I can sum up my 'lived philosophy' in a very simple way. "Expect the worst, Hope for the best" I adopted this mindset around about the time I turned 3...

I cannot seem to fathom how we can appreciate time without partially transcending it. Time is something we frame in time. It seems so inherent to the ...

As mad as it may sound the only 'reasonable' conclusion I can come to is something about consciousness is atemporal. That or it is one helluva tempora...

Phenomena is everything grounded in our sensibility. Noumena is not Phenomena. Things-in-themselves are the intuitively inpenetrable 'whereness' of Ph...

Noumena are not things-in-themselves. You stated: Maybe you simply mispoke and meant 'phenomena and things-in-themselves'? If so no big deal :) I am a...

Kilograms. That is how we do physics.

That is a stretch too far. We can -- and do -- measure matter. For Noumena there is nothing to say anything about. The very idea of noumena (negative ...

It cannot think. It is just a tool. An idiot using a hammer is still an idiot using a hammer. Destructive rather than constructive. Authority? Nope, n...

This is a gross misunderstanding if you are referring to Kant. There is no bifurcation at all.

He is talking about Noumena negatively because we have no sense of other-than space and time. That is the point. He cannot even 'point to' noumena onl...

I should add that philosophy is one area where such limitations on language should most definitely be pushed. Sometimes we push too hard. Hopefully ph...

These are different things though. Kant frames Noumena as something only talked about in the negative sense (meaning we cannot comprehend any 'aboutne...

What divulges meaning intent for one can confound another. Not because they do not comprehend, but due to the fact they have not yet had any reason to...

AI is biased. It wil try and substantiate and support ideas rather than criticise them. It takes quite a bit of work to get AI to do what you want, an...

I said either is dangerous in the extreme. There is nothing unusual about that. Changing everything is an extreme thing to suggest -- dangerous!

If we had already gotten everything wrong we would not be here today. Tilt too far into conservatism or liberalism and it will result in distaster. Hi...
