DnD Central / Re: Philosophy, Logic, Formal Systems
Last post by OakdaleFTL -Arithmetic never was my strong suit.Nor was logic, despite your pretensions!
There's much to be said in favor of the logistic thesis — but nothing that requires or forbids the grade-school learning of abilities, such as basic arithmetic! If you have difficulties with such, it's a matter of memory and apperception... Since you claim to be a philosopher of sorts, shouldn't you recognize and explicate your weird reasoning for rejecting modern logic?
Choosing a base for arithmetic is trivially inconsequential. Unless one is -shall we say- idiosyncratic? (I mean, of course, idiopathic!)
I'd not have commented here but for your recent post! But dear ersi I stand by my inane verse!
But you've given me yet another chance to post this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W6OaYPVueW4
I'd agree that one needn't be a wiz at arithmetic to deal with dollars and cents. But innumeracy is indeed a debilitation...
