apokrisis

Sure. Let’s not confuse epistemology and ontology once more. It would be handy to have some kind of highlighter button to mark the switch in register....

I wonder how we see yellow when the retina has three kinds of photoreceptor cone and none are tuned to yellow as their frequency?

Books here I take as the construction of an interior world of increasing semiotic abstraction. And that can run counter to life’s other enterprise of ...

"Bob, bob, bobbing along, joyfully singing its song"

So there are the known unknowns and then the unknown unknowns which we can believe surely also must exist? That kind of thing? For me, it would is a m...

No. It gathered a good bunch of people to drill into self-organising complexity in the broad sense. But then over-generalised that dynamicist view at ...

As the OP said. Dialectically. As a rationalising balance of the competition~cooperation dynamic by which all natural systems – from ecologies to soci...

I hoped the world would wake up and change. But that moment was already missed in the 1990s if not the 1970s. So Model B is the world as it is likely ...

Bye bye. :grin:

But they arise within the beauty of this larger pattern. Okun’s cube of theories. As outlined here…. https://thephilosophyforum.com/discussion/comment...

By you. Are you sure you’re feeling quite well this morning? You seem to be in some kind of psychic crisis.

Yep and what? If you want to strut about here, answer the OP. What do you propose as the dialectical ethical algorithm that could scale so as to make ...

We have options. The OP says that. Time now to give your answer on the option that scales.

Hence all things being constrained by Poincaré invariance. Or stepping back further to a thermalising perspective, de Sitter invariance.

I said the future is pragmatically constrained. I really don’t understand how you keep failing to understand what is simply obvious. What should Tasma...

And also that the real issue is what can be done about it. Which returns us to the “is” rather neatly. Our range of views on the oughts is pragmatical...

But we can have a theory of reference frames can’t we? We continue on as we see with holography, de Sitter metrics, or twistor space. We can have gene...

It depends on your metaphysics if an exact quantum gravity theory is needed instead of an effective one. It you believe that emergence rules, that top...

Doesn’t the same problem crop up in a relativistic context such as the simultaneity issue? No absolute reference frame and yet that can still be appro...

Says who apart from you? Can you cite some source for this opinion? And why would maths be a judge of how physics proceeds anyway. I just point out th...

Classicality comes to be in the limit. So reality never arrives at that ideal conception we have of it, but through decoherence, it approaches a class...

I can't take this too seriously. Have you studied much fundamental physics? Especially with quantum field theory and particle physics, the tendency ha...

But note the comment that Uexküll creatively re-interpreted Kant's transcendental idealism so as to make it more biologically realistic. Idealism had ...

I don't make shit up like you just did. Wonder a bit more about the why of that.

So maybe your confusion is that we all ought to be silent in your presence? If you say very little, that is already quite enough for everyone concerne...

Only to point out how you keep failing to properly answer anything. The only concrete updates concern the height of your intray of urgent messages to ...

It has been many years now. Banno remains coy about what his metaphysics truly is. I have no idea what he wants to hide from us. But it is probably so...

It seems you tried to spit and embarrassingly the drool trails down your shirtfront. Is this the school yard retort you hoped for in lieu of actually ...

More dribble.

This is his problem. If the world reveals itself to the degree it can frustrate our desires, then dialectically this epistemology of truth demands the...

So it is for the folk. But only if they are just like you? Sounds accurate.

The wrath of the mighty will soon be upon you. First cutting and then magnanimous. As the godly always are. :wink:

But I am doing the opposite. Social construction is what language allowed. (The paleoanthropology of language evolution is one of my special areas.) T...

Ooh, burn! :fire:

Well I wanted a serious answer in terms of the beliefs that led to a stampede into symbolic processing as the way to crack consciousness in the 1970s ...

But that is the syntax, or the rules of argument construction and transmission. The geometry of relations to complement the algebra of the relatables.

That is only half the deal though. These days you must have also fudged some data. :razz:

I was only hoping for a serious answer. I've spent enough time in lectures and presentations on the matter.

So that suggests it all comes back to "number", even for what where then the liberal arts (a way to squeeze things past the eagle eye of the Church?)....

In what sense is it "run" by a computer. Messages can be tapped out in morse code on a telegraph wire. And to the degree that CTM was a stab at a theo...

Erm. What are these and how would we know?

Well I sort of said that geometry/topology is where they look to come the closest. Hence why Peirce’s existential graphs and Spencer-Brown’s laws of f...

Descartes argued for a separation of hardware and software - a dyadic separation of that kind. And computer science claimed that separability as what ...

For whom? And what was their purpose? Always just half the story. Lumpen realism delivered from an egocentrically fixed view.

I agree with the general point that you are making, but it also has the difficulty that a perceptible world - a perception-enabling world - must come ...

Yep. So not at all a dogmatic slumber then. :up:

It is arguing the same point. Cartesian representationalism is the approach that creates all its own problems. Embodied cognition is saying something ...

Where is yours defined? What theory are you talking about?

You mean like this? - https://www.nature.com/articles/nrn2787
