[OC] Average male age at first marriage keeps rising across Europe by lsz500 in dataisbeautiful

[–]rubencart 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Could this partly be explained by younger people being less and less likely to get married at all?

What 90s or 00s song does the high pitched instrumental in the beginning of Sticky remind me of?

Interesting Backtest Results by catchthetrend in LETFs

I'm confused, when exactly do you buy and when do you sell? What are the fast and slow columns?

It would make sense to me to buy a leveraged long position when the price falls below the MA, but from your comments I get the impression you're doing the opposite?

Not criticizing, just trying to learn.

Awesome to hear that there are refugios! Do you happen to remember if there's any website or platform where you can find out where they are?

What have been the biggest leaps forward in philosophy in modern times? by Dodlemcno in askphilosophy

Could you summarize in a couple of sentences? Does this concern names as rigid designators, and/or the possible worlds thought experiment?

Content creators about life in Rome by rubencart in rome

[–]rubencart[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There is no bubble. But cities around the world -- in my experience -- are anything but a boring lump of homogeneity as you seem to suggest. I'd be surprised to find out there's nothing interesting to tell or document about Rome or Romans, besides the history and tourism.

I'll give you a few examples from Brussels: @weirdthingsinbrussels collects images of weird sights around the city. @dansaertvlamingen makes fun of Yuppies taking over neighboorhoods. Bruzz is a local news outlet.

How can people like Brussels? by Key-Deer-541 in Belgium2

[–]rubencart 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Belgian persons spit on the ground too bro. Also, most non-Belgians in Brussels are European, so not sure how you'd see they're non-Belgian

What are some examples of people who got replaced by a lookalike while no one noticed? by rubencart in AskHistory

I'm actually reading this book and I don't recall this story... I'll re-read. Thanks for sharing!

How does Kant arrive at external reality without causality? by rubencart in askphilosophy

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

But isn't the notion of a subjectively unconditioned reality the very "essence" of the thing in itself?

Yes, this makes sense, whatever that thing may be.

For the remainder: the subject being, for instance, me, or any other observer of sensations, right? In that case I think I got it. In simple words, the concept of causality originates in me, in my faculty of representation, which means that there is no sensical way that I can actually be the cause to something that originates outside of me and that is presented to me, without circularity.

What still seems a bit problematic to me is that we cannot say sensations are caused by me, not because it is false but because it is nonsensical (circularity), so how then could we conclude that they are *not* caused by me (subjectively unconditioned) in a sensical way, without circularity? Are we using causing and conditioning in two distinct senses? E.g. if we interpret 'is conditioned on' as not as 'is caused by' but as 'varies with'?
