Paul Graham's "How to Disagree" inspired app for arguments launching soon
- jiggy2011 15y agoIsn't this what forums and places like HN are for?
- bdg 15y agoI've been contemplating a tool like this for a while... but the issues are that not many people understand fallacies even after reading a definition, nor are those new to them readily willing to sift through a dictionary of them. I hope this evolves into something bigger than a forum post, because our present method of written communication lacks our ability to do things like this without losing track of the argument.
- gunniho 15y agoI would love to hear more about your thoughts - My hope is to teach people how to make stronger arguments for their case.
- cpswan 15y agoIt would be nice if the inspired by line actually linked to the essay.
- gunniho 15y agoOf course! Just changed it! Thanks.
- coryl 15y agoDo people find arguing fun enough to do on its own?
- gunniho 15y agoThe plan is not to "host" arguments, but rather a place where people can point out others logical mistakes - hoping they will learn from them and improve. Makes sense?
- instakill 15y agoIs it really worth posting links to HN to Launchrock holding pages?
