peirce

Of course, both Peirce and Popper are terribly unfashionable in philosophy of science these days.

You could go full circle by mapping a tessellated tile-able projection like Peirce quincuncial back onto the spherical lampshade via the inverse stereographic projection.

I like how there no real sense of up or down in the Peirce Quincuncial map.

I'm not sure what that Peirce quote is trying to say.

I like your Peirce Quincuncial projection.

I remember this being mentioned by Charles Peirce as an argument for pragmatism (the philosophical kind): It's a nonsensical question unless you can phrase it in terms where the answer has some practical consequence.

The guys behind bitcoin (who I think are related to Michael Peirce and Donal O'Mahony somehow [1]) have done their homework very well and the fact that bitcoin has survived relatively unscathed over the first couple of years has definitely made me shift from 'fad' to 'possible'.

It strikes me that perhaps situations analogous to the one in which a hypothetical Peirce and Denkenburger are required to figure out how to feed the entire world after an apocalyptic event are not in fact rare, but actually occur all the time, and that it is a routine problem in design and engineering that one needs to find solutions in a problem domain that one understands poorly or not at all.

Peirce (who trained as a chemist) remarked that much of what was called "plain common sense" was simply Aristotle.

Peirce" is uncontested, because any second would be so far behind as not to be worth nominating.

And as Sir Harry Peirce says Mi5 (Spooks) " I like the niceties, they protect us from tyranny"

Peirce coined the term "pragmatism" to contrast _specifically_ with the Kant's transcendental idealism.

In other words, Peirce's view of human knowledge and of science is based around fallibility.

Peirce, William James, or John Dewey, it's clear that rejection of this maneuver is one of the central themes in everything they write.

Also, none of these ideas are mine -- I am regurgitating the original thoughts of Heidegger, Peirce, and Bourdieu.
