What is an 'entrepreneur', exactly?

And, what does 'an entrepreneur' do, exactly?

This particular entrepreneur writes about philosophy on the beach, apparently. 🤔

Philosophy can be done anywhere, even on the beach!

Lord Rutherford apparently used to say that he could do experimental physics anywhere, even at the North Pole. By comparison, doing philosophy on the beach is really quite straightforward.

That’s actually true. Philosophy can be done anywhere. I personally do philosophy from the inside of my brain. Even though the inside of my brain appears to be outside of me as well. :D

Your brain reminds me of one of those odd gooey things washed up on a beach.

(don't take offence, the same applies to how I think about all brains :wink: )

It's true that philosophy can be done anywhere, meaning by those who have some ability to think beyond the usual norms of thought and conceptions which prevail in a society. Unfortunately, most people on the planet are nothing more than walking functions whose capacity to travel beyond their prescribed and circumscribed mental borders and prejudices are nearly nil. A true philosopher examines the root to see how the tree will grow, or examine the tree itself and reflect what caused it to be that way. History shows it's almost always been the case that conformity or complete fealty to some expressed view must, by its very nature, exclude analysis to keep itself alive while remaining at the same time, the path of least resistance.
