If you measure the length of a text in "pages", I can't take you serious, sorry.

when I was like 12 I went to the California science center which had a "drunk driving simulator" educational arcade type game and if you were too good at it the game would automatically crash the car after a while so you didnt undermine their message

more tangentially: Do you know anyone who is studying the transportation of Young Hegelians into the US through the 48ers? I'd love to learn more about the Ohio Hegelians and other groups (maybe even Ernst Kapp counts under this umbrella). Is there something like "NachmΓ€rz Studies"?

Do you think the difference between Entfremdung and EntÀußerung in German is important (1844 manuscripts)? Maybe other translations exist, but I've seen them rendered as alienation and estrangement, which both mean Entfremdung. Is anything lost by not using externalization in English?

<i>What Is Life?</i> Revisited Cambridge Core - Philosophy: General Interest - <i>What Is Life?</i> Revisited

My little book on SchrΓΆdinger's famous classic 'What Is Life?' is out! Offering the most comprehensive analysis ever undertaken of the book's origins, reception, impact, and legacy, it uncovers SchrΓΆdinger's motivations in writing it, and shows how it has shaped our current understanding of the cell

CHATGPT: I understand where you're coming from. You worked really hard to get here, and now it's time to enjoy the fruit of your labors.

ISILDUR: So I should keep it? Elrond says I shouldn't

CHATGPT: The ring is precious. Sometimes friends don't have your best interests at heart.

ISILDUR: true

If some Ancient Greek philosopher had said this, we'd still be making fun of them for it thousands of years later.
