See - you're not Scots, after all. Revelation on revelation, Mr Clank.

Ah, a clever move! Now ask it to parse the whole into a CSV file and build a relational database. Bet it shows you how. Congratulations on your new ro...

Ok. The problems for your position remain: mental phenomena as entities; phenomenology as representational; non-identity as epistemically problematic....

You might be right. Perhaps it's Westron rather than Narn.

Why should we think this covers all the possibilities? Again, with phenomena, and the presumption that somehow I observe "what occur when we dream, an...

For the sake of your Greatfathers, I think you should, as should all your kin. Much obliged. Do you know where I can get some St feoufo?

No worries. You can pay me back by sending me the rest of the recipe for Boeu an Cok$ Neck, wa St feoufo.

But I'll try explaining this again. See the "if"? that makes it a conditional. If as you seem to think, science did not find that water is H?O, then ?...

Nuh, that's Narn. Glad to be of help.

This is better - we are getting closer to the presumptions underpinning this picture of the world. DO mental phenomena exist? Well, what sort of thing...

SO, this is all going to work out well...

So you claim. Yet the deflation is set out before you. Hmm.

Ok. That still looks to be a misunderstanding of Kripke, and of implication. He's not attacking physics.

You're just layering theory on top of theory here. And thinking that the indigenous understanding of the land is separable from what they say about th...

:grin: I doubt there was such forethought... and the recent news indicates otherwise. Hitting someone generally results in their getting their back up...

An iPhone should do likewise.

A Mac should transcribe the PDF's almost automatically in Notes. The process should be something like opening the PDF in notes and copying the text......

Yep. It helps to talk of the other senses - a suggestion from Austin. We already used the taste of sugar being sweet - the contact is pretty direct th...

Yeah, it does. In order to determine that something has expanded on heating, we have to compare it to something else, and assuming that the something ...

No oil company will invest in infrastructure in the circumstances Trump has created. Again, his response to a problem is achieving the exact opposite ...

You have a penchant for telling naive realists what they think. I'm not sure that they would agree with you. But then, it's not all that clear who "th...

There seems to be an odd mindset - the belief that somehow the way to change Venezuelan policy is by kidnapping the guy at the top - as if he acted al...

Yes, you did. I marked "what judgment itself presupposes" specifically because of the central place you give it. I'm concerned to make sure I am using...

Seems you are doing what is appropriate, working with what your clients want and providing for them as needed. Carer training and interaction is usual...

We had this chat previously. Let;s look again at some philosophical weasel-words. So the idea is that sugar is not really sweet, it just tastes that w...

Your diagram... why the potato? :wink:

Ok. No, it didn't. my post was pretty clear. Your argument, somewhat less so.

Better of keeping Dow Nunder as a client state.

Ha! Folk think there's a plan...

When you see a boat, it' a boat that you see. If what you see is not a boat - if it is an illusion of an hallucination - then by that very fact what y...

Next to the one for Venezuela.

Nuh. I said what I meant. Most metaphysics consists in tripping over words, using 'em bad, like.

Most metaphysics is broken grammar.

Maybe. Her indoors says it's too loud, distorted and out of tune... I says "yep!"

New strings on the Electromatic... Savage.

Why not just say that the babe has not yet learned to see the ship, and doesn't do so until they do so under a description? That "seeing a ship" just ...

I'm puzzled. What you argued was that observational knowledge was true, but that theoretical knowledge might be dubious. What you pointed out , in agr...

Does it? Try setting that out. Sometimes it's 22ºC by the thermometer and feels cold; sometimes, too hot. The water freezes at about 0ºC, but only mor...

There's a lot going on in that. Why should we accept it? Isn't such statement ruling out representationalism, sense-data theories, intentionalist and ...

Ok. Good reply. Of course it assumes that the observational knowledge is separable from the hypotheses and theories. But using a thermometer involves ...

The pattern here should be familiar. There's the intuition that there must be something firm - absolute, necessary, unconditional - upon which we buil...

So folk here would be happy to claim they know stuff that is not true...?

So what I'm looking for in your response is "what judgment itself presupposes" so that a judgement can be true or false. Is this concerning the branch...

:victory:

World-first as Australian donates organs after self-administering assisted dying medication Out of interest.

So, by way of checking my understanding Modal semantics can only function as semantics if it is embedded in practices of judgment that distinguish get...

Ok. Has someone done that?

Yeah, ok. I'll leave you to it.

I wondered how it happened - but was baffled. I must have had two windows opened, unawares.

Once more unto the breach dear friends... “Transwomen are women. Transmen are men. True or false?” isn’t something we can answer by grabbing a biology...
