Look, i originally cited that identifying (P⊃◻Q, P) ∴ ◻Q as a fallacy in an argument is an example of refuting that argument without any data. I don't care about your struggles with some random article. As i said, i don't really w

First example claims that "(p => q, p) so q" is a fallacy by closely squinting at word "must". Second example claims that p => q where ~q => ~p is assumed is also a fallacy because they claim that one word that

You can't refute an argument without data. What if i point out that it commits a modal scope fallacy? What data do you have to refute the statement: "A statement can be refuted without data"?

But in a philosophical debate, "right" would be quite ambiguous. One party, for example, could posit that the ideas of "right" and "wrong" are completely subjective. That, in the absence of some stated goal or

Well, holding fallacious beliefs prevents you from arriving at the correct answer. Since philosophers have refuted many fallacious arguments concerning that question they have, therefore, made some measurable progress.

That's sort of like reading this bash quote: http://bash.org/?574642 and saying "What's so funny about people being shot?!"

These complaints are ridiculous. Of course philosophy is going to deal primarily with philosophical discussions, and not with scientific ones, that's the job of science! If you're trying to claim that only scientific ideas are wor

Judging by that TL;DR people would think that there's an article with pages upon pages of what Facebook decided to eliminate from PHP, and not to make it easier but to make it possible to mantain their codebase. No such thing can be

Things like this and some interesting developments from Facebook concerning them are mentioned in the presentation, so it would be nice if people would actually discuss that. Just a suggestion.

No one who has commented so far seems to have read the article, let alone the more technical ones the author talks about.

I already answered this below. Anywhere you look in the framework you'll find that it is written in the same manner, so i couldn't possibly find any code that is comparable in style to the python codebase. Yet, it is a full-stack

Well, wherever you look you'll find the same thing as the whole framework is written in the same way: specific classes with small methods. And you can't say that the framework as a whole does nothing. I agree about the python code

That example is framework specific. Change the php framework to laravel and this: $topic = $this->get('model.Topic')->find($topic_id); $this->get('guardian')->ensureVisible($topic); becomes this:

That really depends on what you're writing and how you are doing it. How is this php[1] code uglier than this python[2] code? [1]: https://github.com/laravel/framework/blob/master/src/Illumin...

No amount of correlation seems to imply causation. Suppose there is some event X that always causes two other events, Y and Z. Let's also say that Y and Z are exclusively caused by X. Then Y has a 100% perfect correlation with Z, but

I think this claim is just confusing descriptive and normative ethics. Probably the most common confusion about ethics there is. True, descriptive ethics is almost entirely composed of various facts about human psychology and sociology, but

No, but there is a question concerning moral realism. Since moral relativism is a type of moral anti-realism which is entertained by 27.7% of respondents, it follows that less than 27.7% philosophers are relativists.

Are you sure about that? I'm getting better performance with XCache, and it has everything that APC has plus some other useful features like deleting keys by prefix.

The docs don't say that you would update the framework via composer (though this may change when Laravel 4 is released) but they do say that you should just replace the "laravel" folder with a new version using whatever method suits you bes

Actually, the difference between compiled C++ code, and the newest version of PHP with APC/Xcache is not that drastic, but facebook needs to squeeze out every bit of performance so they can to cut down on the number of servers. For what it'

No. Everyone knows that you do not modify the framework files. Hell, everyone knew that you do not touch the framework system files years ago with older frameworks like CodeIgniter, so it makes me doubt that you have any experience with PHP
