Apples and oranges? The only metric governing the behavior of the above are productivity and efficiency increases. Thus, the market takes care of itse...

I'm looking forward to buying a pig painting soon. Any pics? This is my favorite at the moment: https://media.mutualart.com/Images/2012_11/26/16/16080...

Did Hanover finally get a pig?
January 17, 2022 at 20:09
That would be nice. How are you doing in general my fellow philosopher?

Given that the height of gladiatorial fights manifest in modern day boxing, I believe that incidents like what Mike Tyson did to his opponents ear-lob...

This is too distressing. *Pig squeals and runs away.*

I think, that there are two types of IQ tests. One where g is measured due to knowledge and memory abilities (non-culture fair tests) and the other wh...

What makes you say that voting should be based off of self-interest? Much of the issues separate from the certain death and taxes, require a semblance...

Apparently someone might call this socialism. Isn't it? Anyway, I have no issues with altruism when facing problems or issues to solve. There are thin...

Ah, yes. The non-existent fairytale of welfare kings and queens living off your dime or 0.0001 cents.

@"unenlightened" come back!
January 03, 2022 at 23:43
I take it as following. A good-in-of-itself is recognized as valuable to a person or even government. The issue with determining value or ascribing va...

It's somewhat vague to say that community has intrinsic value. Comparative to what else?
January 03, 2022 at 19:33
Mainly a definitional one. Things that have intrinsic value are good in-of-itself. Something with instrumental value is regarded as something that has...

I'm concerned about trying to provide a means for educational games for young people that aren't that resource intensive on processing power of a comp...

Seems like I was wrong again. Macaroni and Cheese from Kraft has been around from 1937. https://www.google.com/search?q=how+old+is+macaroni+%26+cheese
January 03, 2022 at 04:32
Imagine what would happen if they disclosed Macaroni & Cheese back then? There's be strikes and lynching all over the neighborhoods.

I have a pretty weak narrative in my head. I don't really have a strong causal narrative in my head for the matter. I think it differs for each person...
January 03, 2022 at 00:09
I believe all people have a narrative in their head shaped and governed by how they internalize issues and thoughts. That 'narrative' is governed by s...

Of all the things, I'd rather hire you. I'm very vigilant about what I should do with my money now that I finally have some. Let me know what you'd li...
January 02, 2022 at 23:05
Ah yes, I believe it is something I can not do. I totally forgot all the formalities with all the buzz around what's happening recently. Sorry. I'm no...

Yes, I am a billionaire. I don't want to come off as stuck up or anything; but, that's what I was able to do. I don't even want 'money' to change me.

Too bad it's a faux pas in the US to show your bank account to another person just to show off how wealthy you are.
January 01, 2022 at 01:37
What would profit you would be cultivating bee's for honey and wax. Are you planning on getting a pig anytime soon?

The argument (the title of the OP) rests on the presupposition that time had no beginning. Hence, If time existed in nothingness, and there was a poss...

That's true. But, I get distracted by anything when reading and contemplating over what I just read.
December 23, 2021 at 20:25
Do any of you contemplate what your reading while your reading it? I can't ever finish a book after reading some of it.
December 23, 2021 at 03:56
The incorporation of the term gratuitous in Christianity is always met with incredulousness.

I think lawyers do it for differing reasons or even financial motivations. The motivation for a philosopher to pretend would be only to engage similar...
December 20, 2021 at 20:46
Well, yes. I believe you understand the issue. It doesn't seem to be a vicious circle, as it seems to me based on how you evaluate examination. The re...

I'll try and provide my own answer and compare it with others. Ultimate concerns are preoccupied with existential problems raised from living life its...
December 19, 2021 at 01:53
It strikes me as odd that a lawyer would even attempt to say that philosophy as a field is all make pretend. I mean, at least the philosopher is since...

Who the fuck deleted my comment? It was meant as a jest on the topic of dining that @"unenlightened" started about making love to his dinner.

Yeah, but your hippocampus is unique for every individual.
December 14, 2021 at 00:30
Well, I'm operating from the assumption that we will have a lot of happy or rather well-off people will arise with age reversal or staving off aging a...
December 14, 2021 at 00:10
It strikes me as strange that you'd want to do that. Just go for the pig.
December 13, 2021 at 23:37
I'm not quite mature for that yet. I also get angry at myself for allowing myself to be happy and then becoming sad again.
December 13, 2021 at 23:32
Has, @"Hanover" adopted a pig yet?

Thank you for the read. I've been formulating a theory of motivation as of recent, and have come to conclusions related to internal consistency inhere...

Surely, Tolkien didn't believe in Frodo the same way we believe the cup is still on the counter after we walk out of the room, no? I mean by this that...

May I ask if you agree with the Church–Turing–Deutsch principle, then? I mean, it states that: If it is true (and that would be a discussion unto itse...
