Is there an open source version of the M8 around?

> If I can find counter examples to that argument that simply then there is something wrong with the argument Except that you didn't. All you did was to state your opinions against the argument without any reasonable…
"appealing to Hume's razor"... I don't want to sound disrespectful, but that's laughable. It seems that you believe that positive law (meaning: law that you "think" is right and want to impose on others) is perfectly…
That's only if you didn't bother reading it carefully. You missed the point about the ability of performing arguments. Babies and children might not be able to argument at the moment, but they are capable of…
Would you mind referring to some articles as examples of the fallacies you're describing? Or is it the case that you simply don't like the content and therefore you dismiss it using whatever excuses you find convenient?
Argumentative ethics is not about determining "truth". It's about deriving the minimal ethical that we can agree upon using a logic derivation. If the aim is to determine possible agreement it requires arguments. Coming…
"I think this is nonsensical" ... "Actually I have a hard time charitably following his reasoning". Let me help you a bit by over-simplyfing the logic: - If I state an argument to you, it can either be true, false or…
That again disregards the fact that those regimes have to be sustained economically. See, no matter what people believe, which gods they pray for, what ideologies they follow and how they manage their lives, they…
The idea that "if a government fails, another government will take its place" only makes sense in an environment where centralization is viable economically. There's this idea that "because things have been playing out…
I'd encourage you to read about the logic derivation of natural law based on private property through argumentative ethics, as described in the article I mentioned.
They certainly don't work for me. I have to pay something between 20-80% of all my income and financial gains to governments despite the fact I don't agree with anything they do, or with their existence. I never signed…
One can claim anything about the goal of a democracy. Politicians are particularly good at "selling" it to the public with all sorts of marketing strategies. In practice I think it's hard to fight that the ultimate goal…
Do you have "ownership" of your own consciousness? Do you "own" your own body? Is that dogma? Have some reading about argumentative ethics, it derives natural law based on private property through the means of logic:…
Democracies can't work, as they're managed by politicians with low time preferences, which means that in order to get elected they'll promise and pass laws and regulations that make the government always spend more than…
That's just one way to look at it. Another point of view is that elections are way to make people believe they are represented and therefore won't fight a state that maintains the monopoly of force, which can impose…
My observation is not ideological, it's a reference to the work of an economist...
"democracy is the worst form of Government except for all the rest" That's until you realize that representative democracy (rule of majority) is effectively an authoritarian system, which is based on the monopoly of…
Trying to impose "one way" to write commit messages is silly at best. At work I follow whatever convention the team I'm on agrees with. For my projects I use commit messages as a way to "tag" changes, more than to…
Is there a command line tool to generate QR codes out there?
