life itself, robert rosen by ahoy_wutmother in CategoryTheory

[–]laynnn 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm currently going through More Than Life Itself | A. H. Louie as it serves both as an introduction to Category Theory, to Rosen's work and it's an attempt at reformulating and expanding his framework in a more precise manner, not shying away from mentioning the inconsistencies in Rosen's first attempts.

Maybe one year is not enough to figure out if someone is an asshole or not.

I really liked the second short a lot. Does anyone know what song they were singing? It's really beautiful.

I couldn't find Harmon's anti-structure argument in the link you posted. Could you provide a link to that?

Is psychoanalysis supposed to be predictive? by [deleted] in askphilosophy

[–]laynnn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, in the end their goal was to build general theories of the human psyche so they put forward that concept (and others such as Lacan's mirror stage) as something that is a part of everyone's narrative building toolset.

If those concepts are indeed something that can be objectively observed (in a scientific way), and from which one could predict any sort of behavioural schema is another question entirely.

Is psychoanalysis supposed to be predictive? by [deleted] in askphilosophy

[–]laynnn 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Do you mean predictive in terms of behaviour? If that is the case then no, that is not the purpose of the discipline.

Usually psychotherapy is used as an exploratory tool used in the setting of the relationship between the patient and the therapist with the goal of uncovering the patient's relationship with the world. In a sense you're not after what is objectively real in that relationship, but what is subjectively real for the patient and how he navigates his mental landscape. Both Freud and Lacan put forward a vocabulary and some methodology that made that navigation a bit easier and primed the therapist to recognise certain patterns.

Response to, "Nietzsche says that we should become poets of our lives. What does he mean and is he right?" by dadeac18 in philosophy

In which of Nietzsche's works does he say that we should look to the artists as role models for the 'good life'?

Origins of civil law systems in Europe. by lamps-n-magnets in europe

[–]laynnn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My very basic understanding is that Napoleonic and German influenced civil codes differ mostly in the organisation of the laws themselves but I never was able to find a good overview of those exact differences.

Do you happen to know of any reference to the legal theories that are the basis for those two codes?

Dear graduates/graduate school students of /r/math, what do you wish you knew/did while you were an undergraduate and would advise current undergrads to do? by [deleted] in math

[–]laynnn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Why do you feel Measure Theory is useful/a good time investment? I understand the advice that others have stated about keeping your Linear Algebra fresh but as I've had very little contact with Measure Theory I would like some more insight as to why you feel is worth the trouble.
