SHould I buy /HYPERSPHERE/?

Or should I just find a printer for the pdf myself? Seems like a slim chance. How is the quality on lulu books? It would cost me about $20 with shipping.

Buy a gun and shoot yourself in the head. Seriously, don't shoot yourself but shoot some cans instead, brother. Learn how to defend yourself and your mother. Be able to sleep well in bed. Save money for practical reasons, like store some honey.

Generally speaking, it's when you are trying to think about things instead of acting like a dumbass you usually are. Which is commendable. But, sadly, the "rationalistic" movement attracts the most autistic and fedoric individuals, so a person with any aesthetic sense won't find the place there.

>GOSH, I'm such an idealist! It's great to have ideas about the future!
>>
>>8247428
It's the idea that a priori knowledge can be used to reach valid conclusions through induction and demonstrated through proofs, the foundational principle being that human beings are logical beings that can reach sound conclusions.

Fedoralords like to use the term to mean "buh I'm smarter than the rest because I'm a logical dude who uses pop science and debate club terminology to argue online". In this context it's virtually meaningless and it just means "I'm more smarter than you."

>>8247437
>>8247440
Once again proof that /lit/ doesn't read. Rationalists, while pitted against empiricists, did not dismiss the validity of material evidence; that came later when idealism was coming into vogue.

Daily reminder that positivism was philosophically destroyed in the 1950s, and that science isn't based on empiricism.

Kind regards, Karl Popper.

Why do you post bullshit and then get upset when called out on it? It can't be that fun surely?

Many peeps in the sciences either don't realise this or outright reject it. Not everyone but an awful lot.
