Philosophy Now Forum

Please define the "dumb" evaluation function. That sounds like a value judgment to me...

You wanted subjectivism - you got subjectivism. Now you don't like it?

Because it's identical to itself

identical(it, itself) ?

That's binary, not unary. So weird.

Do you even understand the difference between 1 and 2?

Identity isn't binary, it's your job to come up with a binary example from the natural world.

I know it's not binary.

So what does =(A,A) represent?

It's binary. So it can't be identity.

It's binary. So it can't be identity.

For the 100th time:

It's not binary in the abstract. But since you lack abstract thinking, you cannot comprehend this.

So what does not binary mean then?

0?
1?
3 or more parameters?

If you are going to pretend to be disagreeable don’t be a total fucking amateur at it

It means they are one and the same (abstract thing).

“They” plural?

You said it’s not binary.

Contradiction.

I said it that way because I'm trying to explain it to you as I was talking to a little child. Here:

It means it's one and the same (abstract thing).

What do you mean by “the same”?

What if it’s one and the different (abstract thing).

It means there is only one thing, referenced twice

Obviously it’s one thing.

What are you communicating about it when you tell me that it’s “the same as itself”?

What would be different about that one thing if it wasn’t the same as itself?

Well you tell me. I've never seen the law of identity breached, nor do I know how that could even look like.

You don't even have a clue what anything means, you world-class sophist. All you have is anger management issues, so you are just trying to sweep all the counter-evidence under the carpet to protect your religion from imploding into the vacuum of its own ignorance.

Look, Ma! No variable assignments.
