Well you haven't really made an argument or given evidence so what else is there to do? Nope, it's expressed by another person, the note didn't write ...
It's not and the mental contents are in the note that is why they wrote it, that's also how poetry works among other writing. The note is not alone or...
Not really no. The note is just the medium, it's someone else interacting with us. The note is just a note. We understand what it means by what we kno...
I don't think the note has an active role in anything, it's just a note. We know what it means because we know what the words mean. It's that simple. ...
None of that is really related to the points in the original about purpose and meaning. And I didn't really understand what they were saying in that b...
I don't know if intent is really true here, seems like meaning and purpose go hand in hand. You can't create purpose without meaning and a purpose mea...
Like...what you don't understand is that "construction" and the meaning we make is the real you as well as the feelings, sensations, and drives of the...
Not really, again for reasons I said. There is nothing that flows out of it, it’s just one part. The feelings and sensations and drives of you (becaus...
Oh, it was just unclear. I normally just care about philosophy that helps me live well mostly, call it pragmatism. Stuff like "how do we know anything...
Me either, the irony stuff in that post sounds more like the Buddhist idea of dependent arising, especially the part about taking sadness to know what...
It's not and that doesn't answer the question. But that's not what it is at the root, it's not a positive feeling. Also unnable isn't a word. It's not...
Yeah, by now I should know better than to go there. Even just looking at his profile raises some red flags to be honest. Then you likely wouldn't get ...
I think it does make sense but some people like to insist otherwise, so far no one has been able to show you can't define it. But if things didn't mak...
That made even less sense then your original comment. Irony isn't a feeling, it's something we can define and point out. It's not impossible to define...
Almost reminds me of nihilism and the making of meaning and how I thought we lived a fantasy world of our own creation by pretending all these things ...
Well he seems to think differently, though in my view if irony is based on expectation then nothing is ironic if you have no expectations. That's why ...
Ummm, in English? I think we can define metaphor with betraying the meaning, otherwise you couldn't use it. There also is no contradiction in defining...
The other thing I’m thinking about is how he might be saying we live in a fantasy world and not reality because we made all the concepts and ideas use...
But what you said isn't what I'm getting at what I think he means by irony. Especially in light of some other stuff he has posted: https://www.quora.c...
I don’t think you got what I meant by my reply. Ironic means the opposite happening of what’s intended, but he’s saying you can’t define what it is. A...
Probably not, but I'm easily influenced. Though I did come across this while reading up on irony: https://cdn.theatlantic.com/media/archives/1913/03/1...
I guess I’m just wondering if what he means is accurate or not, or just nuts. The part about irony not being able to be defined according to him kinda...
This is incorrect. Whitehead was not an idealist nor is he considered one. His view is that of panpsychism or close to it, not idealism. Both however ...
He's wrong on pretty much everything and you can literally google it. I told you to stop believing them as they're often either wrong or grossly butch...
This is, not true, again. Matter and energy are interchangeable under certain conditions like high energy, also energy is not a concept...again. You'r...
Pro Tip: if Gnomon said it then it’s probably either wrong or severely misunderstood. They don’t even read their links (I know because one was a direc...
This is not true, energy is physical but not an “object”. This dude just posts stuff from google AI (which is terrible by the way) and doesn’t actuall...
I kinda got that notion from it too, that things can be process all the way down. It does explain why Whitehead had to ground his in god to make it wo...
I think they’re just bitter that people don’t acknowledge Nietzsche’s wisdom even though I have read his stuff and looked on his life and found it odd...
Kinda shows he didn't understand the teachings or Christianity, like I said, easy to see through. You seem to be bothered by this though. No, people a...
I’ve read enough of him to know his philosophy doesn’t work in practice and he never lived up to it. Not to mention his care depended on people not fo...
It’s still not the case. Any sorta value system you would use to come to that determination is based on emotion. It’s like Hume mentioned reason being...
The man himself had a life that was effectively a downward spiral that ended with him having to be taken care of by others. He transfigured nothing. I...
Last time I tried to dive into it I couldn’t understand a word of it, so I just ask people. So what does that mean exactly? You’re not really telling ...
Way to illustrate my point behind a lot of the misunderstandings behind QM. But again none of this is relevant nor answers my questions so you’ve effe...
