Nothing useful was ever accomplished without collective representation. Even our most famously "solitary geniuses" need a social network through which to disseminate their work and advocate for its preservation. Plato certainly knew this, considering it was through his advocacy (and...
Back in, say, the 1960's? They absolutely would have, because they still had turf to defend. But social capital speaks louder than foundation money in the present global system. These days, groups like the American Philosophical Association routinely cite philosophical contributions from outside...
Interdependent, I would say. We certainly do not ignore philosophy or philosophers. And in the other direction, philosophers have little choice but to respond to the advances of the sciences.
I disagree that philosophy requires a full weekly schedule of free time. I mean, I'm sure that would be...
This I will concede about the California system: It's usually best to run the other way if someone introduces themselves as a representative of an acronymic agency. Especially if it's got the customary CAL- suffix of a state-led initiative.
Well, there certainly are philosophers who specialize in those things. But I also maintain that professional philosophers do not have a monopoly on reflective thinking. There was thought before Plato.
No, no, and yes. Didn't you ever take a course on the philosophy of science? Or wonder why the highest credential in most fields of study is called the Philosophiae Doctor?
It stands for Community, Assistance, Recovery, and Empowerment, and is meant to essentially redirect traffic when people with severe mental health issues are either picked up by the police, or recommended to the program by worried family members and the like. This was primarily designed to...
Absent a practiced, refined manner of thinking, good luck with that wheatfield. It's not actually thoughtless work, you need to model the weather, your local ecosystem, what's known of the plants themselves. Humans have been considering and refining consistent systems of reasoning and prediction...
So one should only make reasonable demands, you would argue? You would be a terrible labor organizer. Or CEO, for that matter. Read the "Art of the Deal" sometime, you might learn something useful. Or the Ferengi Rules of Acquisition.
I meant in reality. But yes, they were probably doomed to lose this fight. The government has every reason to want the ports to be open, and the workers have every right to demand payment for their work.
The strike has been quietly resolved. It was a mistake for the USMX to try and play hardball without recruiting meaningful political support first. The White House had no reason to listen to a word they said, and they no doubt have decades of dirt on everyone involved. The ports are home to more...
You know, ounce for ounce, Jesus' blood was among the most valuable religious commodities in all of Europe, North Africa, and the Levant, for millennia. It's amazing no one ever thought to look under his cross until now.
You'd feel a lot calmer if you focused on what people say, rather than what you think they are implying. Remember the wise words of Emily's ancestors, only you can choose how to react to things. Don't let the Wokes make you a victim.
If you were sent to a "school" as a punishment for a crime, and there are legal consequences for leaving it, then yes, you're incarcerated. It's the status of the inmates that defines the condition, not the architecture.
