>It eventually chased me away from philosophy, specifically analytic philosophy of the Anglo-American variety Lucky for all of us, there is a lot more philosophy than this lying around. That said, I can imagine how frustrating it could be training under a utilitarian. There are lots of strawman arguments against utilitarianism but my impression of them is that they are better at trying to get you to think about something or argue with them that they aren't technically wrong but are wrong in some other way than they are at designing systems that work when applied at civilization scales.
