As someone noticed, you are trying to say something similar the private language argument of Wittgenstein. But notice that this isn’t really private to a person. How are we sure about external events like a ball falling down? Are they not p

Any idea of how to implement tagged unions in Postgres. For example, Tree a = Leaf a | Branch (Tree a, Tree a) This is one data type feature which would be great to have. I know you can create separate tables for each option in the type and

Wish Postgres had an optional data type (tagged union), Does someone know an extension which implements that?

Given that lot of politicking is socially damaging (but promotes interests of a person or a small group), it can be valid to feel good about not engaging in it(maybe not proud) - just like say one might feel good about being honest. Of cour

Not downvoting,in particular there are useful links in your post. But note that by foundations one has atleast two different meanings. One meaning being examining the consistency of axioms or finding weakest set of axioms for a theorem. The

Election money is important but the role it plays is somewhat different. Politicians do often woo companies to come to their sate. A job (particulary a well paying one) creates a lot of economic activity and can make that region prosperous.

One issue in India is that local governance at level of cities and towns is very weak(very few know who the equivalent of the mayor of their city is). The state(as in say US states, not federal level) government basically runs the show. So,

There is a role for summaries with different levels of detail. The short capsule summaries are useful(for one thing, it is easier to remember) and your link itself is a great example. But, there is also a role for longer summaries, which ar

This is indeed a standard response. But one issue is that courts do make exceptions for provably insane persons from being convicted of crimes. Nor do they punish accidental deaths as severely as intentional crimes. When all actions are an

Thanks for linking to such a great resource. I am somewhat awed by how much he has learned in his undergrad years. Also, thanks to other posters too. The two other notes sites are also great.

Great post. Equation 20 defining curvature has a typo in the first term on the right - It should be ∇_X∇_Y Z instead of ∇_X∇_Y X. Might be useful for anyone reading it the first time to avoid confusion.
