Ah, I see. Have pigs been mentioned in the Bible or Torahs?

Jonah was eaten by a whale.

I still think you need a castrated pig to feed scraps and leftovers. They're very sociable creatures, albeit with a dark side.

Pigs eating farmers. They'll also eat some bacon without hesitation... https://c.tenor.com/-2GupLsr6u8AAAAM/k07c.gif

It seems strange to imagine that a pig can do that. But it ain't a fantasy. Never forget to feed your pig or pigs, they become voracious and angry.

Never been to IHop or Denny's? They pour syrup on anything edible there, especially sausages.

Yes, and @"Baden" is making syrup for the sausages. He seems busy with schoolwork or chocolate making.

Shakespeare also incorporated a lot from Stoicism...

Somewhere at 12:30 he suddenly says SHIT-BRICKED, and this was beautiful in front of an academic audience.

I don't think a pig would feel very welcome there. Yes, I always speak in future 3'rd person. Which is why I'm so anxious about sausages.

Are you still planning on opening a penal colony of child rapists and molesters called Badenia?

Are you still drinking in the belly of the day? What's going on in the Chocolate Factory?

It's a derivative of Wittgenstein's beetle in a box.

Timidity? Edit: You don't seem very timid.

As you get older, what starts standing out as the biggest regrets in life? The things you wanted to do but were afraid of doing?

Hmm. https://c.tenor.com/m2LeHH5WzQAAAAAM/catholic-meryl-streep.gif

A wallowing of sorts. Wallow wallow.

I think I shall read something on Stoic logic. https://www.historyoflogic.com/logic-stoics.htm

What would you refer me to read, @"Amity"?

Of course I regard Chrysippus laughing at the donkey eating figs and then suggesting that it should have some wine with it as someone worth reading.

*Wallow wallow* https://c.tenor.com/n1vG-GxtpLEAAAAM/hoginslop-pig-in-mud.gif It's a pigs life.

I never viewed the Stoic as a Carpe Diem entity. I always thought Jordan Petersons lobster eating SSRI taking bloke was closer to what can be conceive...

:blush: :party: Stoic party!

:flower:

Wallow wallow...

It be a sulken sort of satisfaction. My memory commands me not to desire or fear too much as things are happening as they do with or without my influe...

Must have been a conspiracy then.

I have my concerns over this, with respect to finding little motivation or desire to become this way with respect to my fate or destiny or whatever na...

According to Kripke it's this: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Causal_theory_of_reference Not sure if it's a theory of truth altogether... With that s...

Regarding Stoic apathy, there's a very well known dictum of the Stoics to not demand that life happen as you wish it would; but, just the way that it ...

See, http://classics.mit.edu/Epictetus/epicench.html And, Marcus Aurelius Meditations.

In regards to Stoicism, and this will come off as trite; but, modern day living is taxing on the Stoics mind. By which I mean that it takes quite a lo...

Not at all. If people struggle with understanding that 0.999... is 1 then, 0.999... exists inside the sequence of /(10^n) when starting from 1 to n ap...

You can see the infinitesimal hiding there.

How about: /(10^n) As n approaches infinity from 1?

People tend to think that 0.999 is a never ending sequence when in fact it's a converging series to 1.

I seem to think that the point being is to demonstrate the issue pictorially with a converging series. So, something is "reached", no?

In addition I see it of more use to talk about how fast or slow a convergence occurs.

Well think about whether 1/x converges for the set of all irrationals, as x goes to infinity. It doesn't. So, you have to consider whether some value ...

What I mean is the typical notation for a Riemann sum of as n goes to infinity. So the implicit assumption is that you do reach a number, but as per c...

While I'm at it, you also don't have to "reach" 1 for 0.9...(9) for non-standard analysis and can instantiate a infinitesimal.

With that you were disregarding with instantiating infinity in a series sum that apparently converges to 1 for 0.9...(9)

It's just a Riemann sum, Tones, lol!

But, that's how it's usually phrased by others when thinking that you have to add an infinite amount of terms in a series, yes?

Actually, this is implied after an infinite amount of operations on a series. Like a Riemann sum.

Im somewhat unhappy with how the stoic inner calm and peace towards the world arises in my opinion. It seems to me that it's a difficult issue to talk...
