Think it's Davidson rather than Tarski. Tarski's work came out of considerations for formal languages right, in that setting I'd guess they're okay (n...

Would be interested in seeing how you'd flesh out the model disappearing. Is it because sentential truth sets out meaning and is primitive + sententia...

There's much to like in it! It's very language and statement focussed though. I think we've been through this difference in intuitions regarding perce...

I'd imagined an interpretation as a relation, rather than as the RHS ralata. It's what maps the LHS to the RHS rather than the RHS; the arrow itself, ...

@"Michael" - isn't this reasonably straightforward? You can say a counterfactual is about world x if it is evaluated in world x. For example, so "Hitl...

Bloody typical eh. Another Wittgenstein-Heidegger correspondence. : D

I'm a serial maker of muddy water, so I shall provide a perspective I don't believe anyone who has been tagged would provide, and perhaps would derail...

Excerpt from internal monologue: "Someday I hope I forget the distinction between de dicto and de re" "When?" "God fucking damnit"

There isn't much to engage with here @"Art48", I'm going to close the thread. You could repost something similar where you make the analogies stronger...

Can also do it with mathjax: \begin{array} {|r|r|}\hline 0_0 & 0_1 & 0_2 & 0_3 & 0_4 & 0_5 & 0_6 & 0_7 & 0_8 & 0_9 \\ \hline 1_0 & 1_1 & 1_2 & 1_3 & 1...

@"Art48" - I edited your post to contain a recent example from a thread. That is probably the easiest way of doing it. If you edit your post again you...

I'm going to close the thread. It seems like current consensus is that there doesn't need to be a systemic change in how tone is policed in political ...

@"Tate" @"skyblack" Stop.

Sarcasm doesn't transfer well over here. I intended that remark sarcastically. Only allowing direct confrontation in a debate to those who express the...

:up: I've not made up my mind on it yet, never actually have. Personal thoughts: For tighter standards on inflammatory posts in political discussions:...

My view isn't different. See here for an explanation. I'm closing the thread now.

You can also PM other staff to get us to raise things. That tends to work too. Yes. I had the pleasure of reading the exchanges and saw little beyond ...

We've gone through why it was modded before. Do you have anything else to add? As of now, getting shirty and frustrated with each other with political...

That is a concrete suggestion, and is a rule we try to follow. We don't always follow it as we don't always have more than one person online. If I was...

This is the place to do that, constructively. Not with an insult in thread. You will notice that your comment calling @"Xtrix" disrespectful in feedba...

I will bring this up with other mods.

Deleting a joke may have been okay, depending on the context. This was clearly participating largelt to make a snide remark. Ideally a mod doesn't mod...

Makes sense. Cheers.

Yeah it looks like that from the change log. Even more reason for deletion, it was joining in a discussion to make a snide comment about another poste...

Was that the only remark by @"Tzeentch" up until that point, engaged with you, in thread?

The first sentence was good, the second not so much. I suggest going AFK for a bit to cool off.

I checked the change log for this. The context of it, though please correct me if I am wrong @"Tate" @"Xtrix" @"Tzeentch" is that you were all involve...

@"Tzeentch" @"Tate" Take it to feedback please.

I don't know if there's anything specific to knowledge in it. I also don't know if there's anything which distinguishes knowledge from (placehlder) pr...

I particularly like the bolded bit. If I understand what you're saying right, we clearly have a somewhat generic ability to assess whether a given rit...

I think that's quite perceptive. The only contributions I have here are muddying the waters further and joining you in rambling. I agree with you that...

I think that's an interesting example that gets at something quite basic about epistemic certainty being required for knowledge. If you add the condit...

:up: Successfully taxing carbon would've worked I think. When regulation's actually been enforced, production tends to catch up right? And as you say,...

Just some remarks. Largely unstructured. Allegedly Brandom seeks Which is a lot of qualifiers for a main goal of a piece. ( 1 ) Transcendental. There'...

The bannings thread gets closed when the discussion in it ceases to be productive and about bannings. If I was paying attention I probably would have ...

I think that's a solid argument sketch for the claim that conscription isn't just unless (insert caveats here). And that makes sense of the sub argume...

It can be just to war and wrong to conscript. If there's an argument that in a specific case the only way to fight would be to conscript, then the jus...

@"Isaac" You both derailed the thread by getting into a condescending insult spiral. Any complaints, take it to PMs or feedback, not here.

@"Isaac", @"Olivier5" Stop this.

Half of the Democratic Party just resigned and wanted Biden to. It has been conjectured that Biden won't step down and will instead dissolve governmen...

:fire: Let's leave it at that then. :up:

Does it really need to be said that you're massively oversimplify the enculturation of multiculturalism in the political north by tying it to the work...

:naughty:

I fite you.

I'm aware, by the sounds of it you're highlighting that enframing vs phusis/physis in QCT is a continuation of the discussion of propositional vs herm...

I don't know why they were banned. That one looks like a requested deletion rather than a punitive banning, though. I don't recall that person ever br...

We ban lots of spambots and adbots.

Most bannings of real people. Any of particular note.

You know the 'Heidegger makes ethics subservient to ontology' line then, do you feel like it's that much of a stretch from there to fascism? I don't, ...
