The point is not “could someone get benefit from this” it’s that there are better heuristics to use and using old ones means you’re operating on old software B

The point is not “could someone get benefit from this” it’s that there are better heuristics to use and using old ones means you’re operating on old software By that standard literally anything is valuable even as just an example of what not to do so it’s a meaningless measurement

  It’s a rare condition called having an educated and informed opinion

    I don’t want to punch down, but that comes across a lot like trump saying he has the biggest words. You may not have the time or inclination, but there is a lot to learn from studying Hegel and the history of philosophy. No ‘measurement’ is required.

      That was never a question. There are structural limits to the Hegelian Dialectic being used as a universal epistemology Marxism and other non-numerically based epistemology traditions refuse to accept this The majority of people aren’t even as deep as hegel and yet even the hegelians still think they have a universal epistemology when they have a keplerian version at best that hasn’t even heard of subatomic particles

        > That was never a question You originally made the statement that "Hegel is irrelevant in the age of measurement", to which I objected. Unless you're going to back pedal further, you did find studying Hegel questionable. I'm not going to go on the attack, but your pronouncements and self-certainty do not sound well considered.

        They can both be true For an ignorant uneducated person with absolutely no education thinking dialectically is an improvement If you are a doctor or prime minister in 2026 you’re neglegent if your epistemological roots are based on a hegelian dialectic But go off queen

        Top-notch philosophical argumentation. All of your rare, educated and informed opinions really shine.
