I prefer these over the 1000th blog post about how SQLite is awesome (it is)
There are so many good (non-mainstream) tech articles to share. A lot of them are not repetitive. A lot are shared here every day. Yet, for some reason, people decide to share these self-help low effort articles on HN. Just make some "news.selfhelp.how2behappy.com" website.
(No offense to you, I just don't get it)
Thank modern philosophy, which unfortunately discarded all previous philosophical knowledge
I think knowledge isn’t something that accumulates—each generation discards some old things and discovers some new.
The old stuff is still there of course, but it’s not a part of the societal discourse or understanding and so is more inert information than knowledge.
Nothing new since Plato
They discovered stuff but anything which gets solved is then called science.
It absolutely did not come on lol. Where do you get this stuff.
Nietzsche, in his book Beyond Good and Evil, says that Plato is the beginning of a great decline, responding with his tragic view: 'And who said that man is capable of knowing the truth? [...a long waste of time follows...]'. I recommend looking into the discussion of universals, as I understand that much of the disagreement stems from this point.
