  • For distance and mass, zero means no distance and no mass.

    For temperature though having none means no kinetic energy of atoms/molecules. It’s absolute zero, the zero Kelvin. So the other units are the weird ones.

    But since zero Kelvin isn’t a phenomenon you’ll ever encounter in nature, it makes Kelvin a pretty unappealing scale for everyday life.

    And thus we started making shit up…








  • Yeah to be fair if you do all the homework with LaTeX there’s no reason not to set up your machine.

    I’ve even heard of someone who even used it to take notes in class… Honestly I wouldn’t dare to try and learn that!

    But yes, that’s when the macros and possibilities you don’t have on overleaf becomes really good to have.


  • Well yes but overleaf makes it possible to work on it with a mate, on any device without having to install anything, and it also saves your progress online so you don’t lose it or forget you document at home.

    If your not seeing were i’m going it’s perfect for school project. Through high school and college i’ve done all my projects with it… I think that’s where it shines.


  • In what cafes and sandwich shop do you go to? I’ve never seen one that was closed during launch hours.

    It’s getting rarer but their is some that only open in launch hours instead of the whole afternoon, restaurant can have some specific services hours. (And some cafes stop serving drinks while serving food.)

    French culture is to eat at specific hours, so it would be almost impossible to serve food only outside those.

    Labour theory of value puts value on goods for the sole purpose of trading and explaining trades. Both LTV and STV does.

    Marx’s use of LVT is to criticize how Capitalism leads to exploitation. But although the specifics differ SVT could still be used to raise the same critiques.


  • Its usefulness never made me disappointed despite this drawback.

    I’m a physicist at heart, which might explains it… To me the use in philosophy is just as important, especially in philosophy of science and metaphysics.

    Simply put I couldn’t imagine studying how reality works without ever wandering what it is and how to best study it.

    Dialectic can never be a science, you can’t apply the same methodology. Even when it’s material.

    However it is philosophy, and if your searching for some material reality then it’s ontology.

    Science too is a product of ontology, it’s a methodology created for this exact purpose and wich can be studied in this field.

    Saying physical properties are social abstractions sounds to me like social constructivism, which is epistemology, again philosophy.

    Social sciences can be soft science precisely when they are not dialectic and rely on the methodology of science.

    And to be clear, soft science is just a science that is based on a hard science, in which we don’t have enough work done to explain every emergent properties using fundamental properties of matter.

    Psychoanalysis is an outdated philosophical theory, so indeed just a scam now.
