Could you give an example of how it helps you look at things a little differently?
I found that when I talked to my old roommate (he has a philosophy bachelor + master degree) that my programming experience helped a lot in talking about philosphy.

- nmaley 1y agoI've spent a lot of my career doing various types of solution design. One of the insights I gained from thinking a lot about representation, intentionality and the philosophy of language is that the way you represent a problem has a big influence on how easy you will find it to solve the problem. I've found that helps with solution design. Don't just think about the problem. Think about what is the best way to represent the problem.
