I'm very suspicious of this article. I've watched a decent bit of the interview, and I'm concerned about the lack of verification that she is in fact a UN employee as she claims, and the absence of any incriminating emails sh

If you have a problem with twitter hiding trump's tweets and new zealand banning the christchurch shooter's manifesto, there's no inconsistency. There's also room for applying your own standard of free speech vs hate spe

IIRC: Dimly lit room + brightly lit cube means that whenever your vision tracks outside of the cube it will have to adjust the opening of the iris. Doing this a lot will tire your eyes out. My interpretation of this is that we should try to

I can control laptop brightness with `/sys/class/backlight/foo`, and my asus external monitor advertises capabilities over hdmi with `modprobe i2c-dev` and then `ddcutil capabilities`. Apparently this is governed by some

Why are monopolies a problem? Because they stifle competition? Why is this? Because they control a market or ecosystem to the point where they can very very effectively prevent new players from entering it. If we have an ecosystem that a la

The whole point of my post was to point out an alleged flaw in your discursive approach, but I was genuinely trying to temper my language. It's clear I didn't do a good enough job of that. For the record, I don't think a prio

It's true that many moral intuitions we have end up seeming immoral when we reflect on them further, but this says as much about our difficulty with reasoning morally as it does about the supposed immorality of our moral intuitions. I

Are you sure it doesn't protect police from criminal prosecution? I don't see any mention of a distinction between civil or criminal violations in anything I have read about it. Furthermore this case[0] it seems to me could have b

Yes, but there is almost no way to fully follow through on clear and universal principles. Instead of worrying about that, consider the possibility that our moral feelings are generated by a natural receptivity most of us have to the suffer

I've used forall x (calgary remix), both the winter 2018 and the spring 2020 editions, and I found it quite good. It teaches truth functional and first order logic, and it's probably accessible to most high school graduates. I
