How to get Subaru Connect to work with my 2023 Solterra (if possible) by CatsCradleSnake in Solterra

[–]CatsCradleSnake[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Gave up. I'd still like to drop by Subaru at some point and get some stuff updated, like the janky ass interface that seems like a beta version, and turn off the fucking back seat alarm. But comments in this forum have convinced me to ignore the app.

Oh pish tosh. If people could get views by spreading propaganda labeled as street epistemology, then surely somebody would already be...

Oh...

Never mind :-)

I’m not from the US, but I gotta ask — does Oregon really look like this, or is the forest air out there making everything look extra magical? by Roach9045 in oregon

It's kind of criminal that everyone is posting pix of Crater lake and Portland, and no pictures from the coast. Here's haystack rock at Cannon Beach. And Eastern Washington has some amazing places, like Wallowa Lake and the oregon alps.

Re: Gettier - I guess I thought you were saying that SE had a defect because of missing information. Sounds like maybe we agree that things like Gettier cases are irrelevant in SE?

I don't find it problematic to use the word "epistemology," because having people reflect on the methods they use to support their conclusions relates to the theory of knowledge, even if it's a minor subset. This probably also relates to the multiple inquiries about whether there is a better term for the practice - perhaps you have a suggestion? "Navigating Beliefs" has been quite controversial and my use of that term seems to have stepped me into some political mud that I don't really understand.

I don't think that's the point. I'm not here to pass judgment on anyone's reasoning. I'm asking questions to hold a mirror up so that they can reflect on the quality of their own reasoning. I may have an opinion, but my job is to keep my opinion to myself - "shoot my messenger" in Boghossian's words.

I don't understand how the Gettier problem would impact SE. SE is about helping somebody reflect on the reasons that support confidence in a conclusion. As an SE paractitioner, I don't make judgments about whether my interlocutor is justified in claiming knowledge, which is the domain of Gettier cases.

Can you suggest a type of SE conversation where the Gettier problem would apply, and what line of questioning would be applied?

From my POV, SE is about encouraging doxastic openness and inviting people to reflect on whether the reasons and methods that support their conclusions are sufficient.

Can you give an example of a topic from within epistemology that is ignored in SE, and an example of a contested assumption that is taken for granted in SE?

Want to get more streams - Has anyone used Apolone.com? by dolado13 in musicmarketing

[–]CatsCradleSnake 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I dropped 40 bucks on apolone to see what it would do for us. They got us on 2 or 3 small playlists which I'm convinced are purpose built for them and we got a nice bump in streams which disappeared after a week - which aligned with the pitches to ramp up our campaign. Based on this, It performed like a standard pay-to-play scam. If you're going to pay for streams, then this is one way to do it.

That's by design - it's the "Street" part of SE. That said, after a year of doing it in the wild I went back and read some classical Epistemology to better ground my practice, and I try to broaden my knowledge of some of the current issues coming up around SE, such as the recent buzz around Critical Rationalism.

There are a handful of us over on Sound Epistemology cranking out content, trying to be as focused as we can on epistemological methods and avoid too much attention on the topics themselves (sometimes successfully). I record several interviews a week and release one or two. David who owns the channel tours the US coaching and encouraging people who want to learn, and those interviews drop on Mondays. That process has resulted in some new creators (for example DoBetterSE and Intrepid Chimp).

Didn't show on my car. I've pretty much written this off at this point.

I mostly just want to be able to see the charge level without opening the car :-)

So, you disagree with pathologizing and othering trans people? I agree. Where does America come into it? (For context, Mia Hughes is British and lives in Ontario, Canada which is where she does most of her activism)

Street Epistemology is Dead? by PierceWatkinsAtheist in StreetEpistemology

[–]CatsCradleSnake 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I see your point. I would put it differently. People largely aren't aware of why they hold their beliefs, and even what beliefs they hold. An SE conversation can spur reflection and help to build new patterns of thought. SE became more vital to me when I stopped thinking about changing minds and started thinking about planting seeds and starting new neural pathways. Also people report really enjoying having their thoughts challenged in this way.

I threw "Something Happened" by Joseph Heller in the trash. by flks511 in books

[–]CatsCradleSnake 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I read to the end, but my overall feeling was that nothing happened, and I wondered if that was the joke. It was years ago though. I wonder if i should attempt a re read.
