/phi/ - Philosophy A board for pretentious debates on epistemology, ethics, aesthetics, metaphysics, and logic.

Apply them to anything: Science, sex, your mom's cooking. No topic is too sacred or profane.
Consider this your haven where being a self-righteous, over-analytical asshole is encouraged.

What isn't allowed:

1. /b/, /x/, or /rnb/. Go spew your unhinged rants elsewhere.
2. Brainless drivel. If you can’t string two coherent thoughts together, take it to Twitter X.
3. Claims without arguments. "Because I say so" or "because you're gay" doesn’t count as reasoning. Repeatedly trolling and bait replies without substance will be banned.

Global rules apply. No, you can’t argue your way out of a ban for being an idiot. Add to the conversation, don't detract from it.

I wrote an essay https://byrd.im/on-language/

It’s in everyone’s best interest to take system design of computer networks out of greedy and possessive hands of software engineers, attempting a little revolution-like sleight of hand trick, that would allow anyone concerned with things like language, logic, and problem-solving—to easily learn about, or maybe even directly affect how things around them are run.

Actually, I don't really understand what your work is about. I was just writing an essay about web development recently and had to choose a topic. I looked at a site with free essays online https://sccis.org/ for work that students write and I wrote about web development methods. I wonder what you mean in your paper.

Good day everyone! In fact, I rarely have trouble writing essays and other academic papers. But there are times when I just don't have the opportunity to write an essay. In such cases, I prefer to use https://domypapers.com/ to write my essay. This approach helps me avoid problems with my studies and not have academic debts. I advise you to try this too.

I don't think logic can meta itself. While it's integral part of reality, it cannot encopass itself and beyond while still operating within itself.

In other words, I don't think it makes sense to ask a question like that.

The answer is blowing in the wind though so it's fine to ask, but just listen and instead of a question - you have an answer.

I've been getting my toes wet in philosophy for a couple days now, and I've figured out that I strongly associte with the idea of materialistic determinism. Who are some essential writers to familiarise myself to develop this new interest? I'm not opposed to having my views challenged.

Also, I'm kind of retarded, so I'd prefer some easier reads if possible.

I made a post with the same title, but decided to delete it and make a dumbed-down version of it:

> me interested in philosophy since young kid
> me wanting to write philosophy book
> me not wanting to read philosophy book
> me think is unnecessary to read all book, when one can grasp fundamental ideas and apply to other fields
> me unsure if must read philosophy book to seem legit in dialogues with others (+writing)
> me believes 10 tools more important/useful than 1000 books of information
> hence, me invest in tools over the years instead of reading
> me refer to philosophical branches, anyways (subconsciously) > resulting in on flowing discussions
> me not wanting a title in philosophy
> me wanting to speak in front of an audience in future
> me having million dollar dilemma - me arrogant for thinking = reading philosophy unnecessary? For me thinks most books are recycled ideas, like hero vs villain, meaning of life, God etc.
> me thinks - why reinvent the wheel, when me can roll.

Yep. That's why more practical sciences are disdained by working class adults.

Philosophy is idealism, which is the heart of malehood.

Philosophy is just adults complicating things to create an articial product called maturity.

"the world is filled with suffering" is just as much of an anthropocentric and obviously empirical viewpoint as believing that "life has a greater meaning", for me anti natalism immeadiatly falls apart at its first step

Well yeah, of course the view is based on the human experience. No one is saying it's "objectively right" in some metaphysical sense about the universe as a whole, people don't really try to say that about anything.
