Incredibly bright and astute insight. You don't do anything with anger. (Obviously you've never been angry, otherwise you'd know.) Anger is the resolu...

This is why I say you ain't no philosopher. Because: - to a chicken farmer you can't say don't count your eggs - to a mathematician you can't say "liv...

It's a bridge no side wishes to cross, yet wants all on the other side to cross to their side. Anger is a better emotion to employ to deal with this s...

Hence the English proverb, "To err is human." Becase humans (Menschen) are nature's biggest mistake.

In Yiddisch, too. Rabbi Rubinstein wrote a rebuttal, little known and soon forgotten after publication, to Nietzsche, with the title "Meschugenes Uber...

Grammarly. That is the software to clear up the snags and traps of English. I use it to smoothe out the mistakes in all my commands before uttering th...

Case in point to question in quote 2 is the statement in point 1: If there is no line between good and moral, then the first quote becomes "The proble...

Then why are the religious just as angry? What if you followed every tenet of your religion, for instance, Christianity, and once in a while fantasize...

@"3017amen", I must commend you for starting this thread. I have often ridiculed you on these pages, and I still maintain that you suck as a philosoph...

Hehe. I view cannibalism as a cross between cannabis and banalism. But I don't condone it. Apparently the mad cow disease is caused by any species eat...

You're plain stupid. I did not say that. I agreed with you, and admired you for your superior math skills. You could't comprehend that, and therefore ...

Holy MacKarel, you are a genius!! Not only can you tell that .001 goes 20 times into .02, but you can also tell that .001 <> .02. I admire you for you...

You are either mistaking me for someone else, or else you notoriously put words in the mouth of people. You are... despicable in your building argumen...

Praxis, please don't misquote me. There was an "if" before "secularist". Are you a journalist? I wouldn't be surprised if you were.

You were referring, I reckon, to geography and English history? Are there any other subjects in school? It's been a long time for me, and I can't reme...

I don't want to end the discussion. I just wanted to end this branch: "Who cares?" "I care." "Why?" "Because." I am all for supporting more debate in ...

I don't think it's their supernatural quality that is the main spring in accepting religion-driven morals, but the (believed) absolute authority of th...

Right. I concur. Except now I have to look up "anathema" and declare some sort of pun about it, too, to remain consistent.

Ay-vey.

I both agree and don't. There will be more mullah and goods to go around per capita; a 2% increase in a flash. The upfall is also that retired, i.e. c...

I accept your answer as your opinion. Since we have not established any metrics as to what constitues low, I have no choice to accept your answer as t...

So, |>, do they have a table in C++ , in Java, and in all other languages, for ALL imaginable non-reducible fractions of integers? If you say "yes", t...

You opened my eyes, |>, to how new programming languages work. How does a program add 1/3 and 3/7 together? Bring them to the same denominator? Like h...

Douglas, Where did ZelebG go? You see what you've done? We quibbled, and ZG took the opportunity of the moment that we weren't watching, and he ran aw...

Perfectly true. But the numbers will be thus represented as long as a program is run written in that particular programming language. If you run a dif...

I hear what you are saying. But the emphasis is on, what you described as, AT TIMES. That is, not always. Once you enter into a variable the value of ...

Why do I care? Because. (This is great philosophy, innit. Let's stop this now. You can still have the last word, I won't reply to that in this mini-th...

That is true. But the death rate is still only two percent. It can stay two percent until two percent of all infected people die. It's still two perce...

You used the expression "decadence" for the soft, rotting core of society, which has become soft and you know, soft, like soft, yellow shit. But "deca...

Actually, the answer is no. There are analogue quantities, that can't be digitized. 1/3, for instance, is impossible for a binary computer to digitize...

Well, as soon as you reduce the precision to below 100%, you lose information. You retain and pass SOME information, but not ALL information. That is ...

No. The monitor has 16 million colours in 1280 times 720 pixels. That gives you a combination of 1.6*1.28*7.2*10^12 combinations. That is not infinity...

Douglas Alan raised a valid point: you are talking about the visual, he is talking about the real. You asked if anything can be depicted; yes, but not...

In one single screen, or in a series of possibly different screen shots, of the same every possible object? The more you examine it, the more your que...

To give a straight answer, no, it cannot, if the information is to be complete, exhaustive and precise. However, information may mean "limited but per...

Your monitor has a capacity to represent only a limited amount and thus a finite amount of different combinations. Your monitor, however, can not repr...

I care.

To wit, the nationalistic, populist, bigoted Hungary has had no discovered cases of the disease yet.

What about the cases that cropped up with no known connection to infected population. In far away places. Italy, the USA even. The virus may be spread...

I don't know if you realize the pun you uttered.

No, shouldn't have. (Also sprach das Crowd.)

Instead "Can I remain the same?" ask yourself, "can I remain sane?" in an eternal life. Boredom will set in sooner or later. You will be so bored you ...

Depending on for whose pleasure: yours or the babies'.

They want all men to perish. Not all of these women, but most of them. Their hate is what I hate. They are violent in their writings, they just want t...
