  Yeah, I like it too :-) Philosophy has surely delivered unicorns: Mathematics, Physics, Biology, Chemistry, Computer Science! The question is, can Philosophy deliver another one?

        That was profoundly disheartening.

    Economics too! i.e. the "worldly philosophers".

      You mean the field famous for predicting six of the last five recessions?
      • damienkatz 10y ago
        You mean the field that predicted the last 80 of 8 recessions.

          Yes, while mostly also referring to the period immediately prior to the Global Financial Crisis as the "Great Moderation".
