Good points but I think the entire post is just link or karma porn anyway.
While I agree that forks like this post sometimes make interesting discussions (and here I am discussing it) I'm not sure what the exact authority is of the OP (per the about page) "I’m a wannabe philosophy professor turned wannabe tech entrepreneur" is anyway, so that if I don't know much about philosophy to begin with why should I even pollute my brain by reading it. Not to mention that I don't know to what degree I can even trust the comments here about this subject at all.
Ironically, that said, separately, and since a theme of the post is "words" [1] interesting how it has been concluded that "seem to be relatively new to HN" when as evidence all you have is the fact that the account was created 22 days ago and a review of the previous comments.
[1] I just changed what I said from "you have concluded" to "how it has been concluded" so as not to appear to be attacking you. Once again, ironically.
- WestCoastJustin 12y agoUpdated my comment, based off your feedback, to state I am using the account creation date as a data point ;) This post and comments about philosophy are so subjective that I doubt anything useful is going to come of it. Likely the only reason it was posted here, is that it's about PG. I just thought I'd give some advice about commenting style.
