but is this writing just an endless flow of words or sounds or whatnot? both? and if it's just endless how do sciences happen then?
-
If it is possible to explain it briefly (I don't have much timehere right now), I understand that grammatology is about writing and difference. I know Derrida tries to get rid of the distinction between speech and writing (because Western philosophy privileges speech over writing), so I think that's the basis of grammatology? I'm not as familiar with Derrida as I should be, as I find him somewhat irritating.

It's okay i guess but there are some colour issues that need to get sorted, like the grey text and even the grey widget to the left of this reply window - the one between the window and my avatar. And i believe chacheng is right: sometimes it's a bit of blue overload...but maybe I'll get used to it. I did have to get used to the first theme too.

securing the site
stimmung79 commented on Gord Barentsen's Blog entry in Fractal Points: News & Information
Personally, I wouldn't bother with either IE or Microsoft Edge. Microsoft seems to think that their browsers are the best because they're packaged with Windows but everyone else has just left them behind. -
yeah, it took me a while to get the hang of that. Just remember one thing: try clicking on everything on a screen to see what happens

The Piscine Redundancy Theorem
stimmung79 commented on Gord Barentsen's Media Gallery item in Misc. Funny
I think it says that most of life is nothing more than a competition as to who can say it better. A piscine contest, if you will. -
that sounds like it should be an honest to goodness philosophical concept.

It says onthe Wikipedia site (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aufheben#Hegel), among other things, that So in the end, no one knows what the hell Aufheben means

i was reading an interesting article from Paul McGeogh in TheAge: http://www.theage.com.au/world/what-the-internet-did-for-journalism-donald-trump-is-doing-for-political-reality-20161206-gt4vbk.html and there were some interesting comments about the new(?) relativity of truth: so apparently truth is a dog's breakfast...we can't even be expected to listen to what political leaders say anymore

Ok so I came across this quote whilst reading Nietzsche, and am not sure I can make sense of it: "I am afraid that we have not got rid of God because we still have faith in grammar" (in Twilight of the Idols) Discuss?
-
All of this makes perfect sense but i can't help thinking it's a sad, sad time for humanity when we have to strategize like this..

Part of me thought the same...until I saw 2012. He should have stayed outside that bedroom window with the boom-box..

Hey Gord...for some reason I can't give forums topics a star rating.
-
Ok but can you use it in a sentence? Actually it sounds like a new car..."The Honda Accismus...It wasn't what I wanted, but it's better than that piece of shit anyway...hmph."

Hello, I've known Gord for quite some time now - old York University alum veterans . I am currently absorbed in my personal philosophical readings (Schopenhauer and Nietzsche), working a thankless job and trying to make sense out of a world that seems to be going madder by the year.
