ITT we thank Einstein for BTFOing Henri Bergson and nuking the credibility and prestige of philosophy forever.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Einstein%E2%80%93Bergson_debate

/lit/ still seethe about it to this day.

Bergson's essay on laughter is very insighrful

AI is stealing STEM jobs and academic prestige first.

I'll make sure to tip you when I go for my daily caramel macchiato before grabbing my huge university paycheck for researching Feminist Marxism under the lens of Max Horkheimer's dialectics.

Lol, AI will be a tool for us STEMchads. It won't steal our jobs.

Einstein used philosophy very much himself, like when he invoked occams razor. While then forbitting others to use philosophy when it doesnt fit him. He killed modern physics.
>>
>>17049630
>>17049911
Its even more funny when he argued "physics time wins over philosophers time" when lorentz HAD an absolute physical time philosophers agree on, but Einstein used philosophy against him. What a fraud.

>physicist BTFOs a wordy pseud, more pseuds rush in and proclaim victory with more rambling
that is just the average /sci/ interaction, philosophy is a perfectly valid field. Kant was wrong about time and space, and *assertions* about measurable traits of empirical reality are no longer in the domain of philosophy. Interpretations of what our quantitative findings mean surely. Bergson is the embodiment of a regressive, intellectually incestuous and stagnant approach to philosophy that is content with wallowing in the gut feelings based approach of antiquity. The main difference is that the Greeks and Romans didn't know better, and had very little to work with. People like him (and a good chunk of ramblers on this board) would not hesitate to send all of humanity back into the stone age if it meant they could return to true ignorance of centuries of philosophical and scientific progress, rather than just feigning it.
Up next: a rambler will accuse me of schizophrenia or seething because that is about the only thing they can actually bring to a conversation beyond diatribe about the nature of things they do not understand.

No, he wasn't. You just got filtered.

If you told Kant about Lorenz invariance he would have been surprised and would have made it work within his appropriately amended frameworks. You and your subhuman ilk would rather call it fake and gay or LARP about it either not mattering or contrive theories you treat like scripture to mean the same.
>>
>>17049962
>nonwhite loses his mind with rage
What does Lorenz invariance have to do with time as an organizing principle of the mind?
>>
>>17049965
>time as an organizing principle of the mind
That is a perfectly valid but very limited reading, it is not like Kant was only talking metaphysics. Please revisit the basics: https://plato.stanford.edu/entries/kant-spacetime/
>nonwhite
Du kannst Kant nicht einmal in der Originalsprache lesen, du schwafelndes Hurenkind.
I won't bother replying to more of your nonsense unless you have something other than shit to fling to bring to the table. Here is a question for you: can Kant's view of time and space (as physical entities) be reconciled with Mach's principle?
>>
>>17049959
Off topic but I want your thoughts on
Kierkegaard
Heidegger
Nietzsche.

>nonwhite doesn't know what an argument even is
Quote the "argument" in your post.

Protip #1: a wikipedia page is not an argument.
Protip #2: vague claim is not an argument, either.

Feel free to present an argument in your next brown insect post.
>>
>>17049999
>>17049988
Yes, I just didn't want to reply to you in the same post as the debate spic. I missed out on Kierkegaard, Nietzsche I always found a bit.. destructive, or at least disruptive in his approach to ethics. As in, his works leave you in a very "now what?" sort of position if you humor him, in the same way that epistemological musings tend to. Heidegger I remember mostly for his interpretations of Kant, and I believe he did valuable work there that was in parts perhaps too transformative. I remember him to express himself more clearly than Kant ever did though. All rather cold takes I'm afraid, I have stopped reading the past 10 years and it shows.

Ah, Thanks regardless.

>Protip #2: vague claim is not an argument, either.
That is what philosophers specialise in. Using vague language to pretend they have something to say lol.
>>
>>17050011
No problem. It's a beautiful field, and I hope to get back into it eventually.
>>
>>17050000
I simply stated that Kant's view on space and time as a physical thing are necessarily incomplete. You interpreted Kant's definition of time in a myopic way stripped of physicality and challenged me on those terms. I dismissed your very easily falsifiable premise and referred you to a source. You claimed there was no argument, as that was the only recourse a sad naziboo that can't even speak German has to offer. Your commitment to ignorance is apparent and you can fuck off with your spic discourse back to pol or wherever else you came from. Shift+click.

Show me what part of the wiki article you posted talks about Kant's views on time as a physical thing. Also post hand.

Hey you retard, it was Einstein attacking absolute time based on philosophy
>>17049962
>>17049965
>>17049979
Lorentz invariance is just lenght contraction and slowing of processes, not much to do with time and especially not with space.
Ach dann lies doch mal Einsteins originale Paper, und Kant du Zipfelklatscher. Das ist beides voller Philosophie.

Not necessary, only if relativity is correct.

>i'm mentally ill and buckbroken by reddit drama
Don't know. Don't care. Kant was concerned with the necessary structure of experience, not with time as a scientific-mathematical abstraction.
>>
>>17050122
Which is why he never opined on Newton and Lorentz in both physical and metaphysical terms, suuure.
Hidden and ignored.
>>
>>17050117
My point is its not even necessary to say Kant was incomplete.

>>17050125

Why don't you show me specifically what you're referring to and in what context. Protip: because you're a dumb animal regurgitating something it heard on a 90 IQ YT channel. You don't actually know what you mean.

I never said anything about philosophy being bad. I called bergson regressive, which he is, and that isn't even a hot take.

you already were linked to the appropriate page of the Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy, mr picrel. Not gonna read it to you.

Philosophers are worthless morons who've drowned in their own rotting brainslop. Reminder that Kant said that the law of conservation of matter was true a priori.

Yeah. Have you tried actually reading it? No wonder you can't provide any relevant quotes because the whole thing just keeps reinforcing my point.

Notice how your mental illness forces you to keep replying even though you know you can't provide any relevant quotes from your source and your responses only highlight it over and over again.

>absolute time and space
modern day geocentrism, Mach's principle rendered all this shit obsolete

Thats per Definition subjective and you can have that opinion. I dont.

>>Ah yes, eine der am besten experimentell bestätigten fundamentalen Symmetrien ist unwichtig, die Tasache dass Raum und Zeit beobachterabhängig sind und eigentlich die gleiche einheit haben sollten ist unerheblich
Oh missed that. A lorentzian aether theory explains SR with absolute time and space. Just not gravity.
>>
Why doesn't philosophy have something like mathematics' Millenium Prize problems?
>>
>>17050140
Not at all. CMB is exactly the reference frame for newtons bucket and Machs principle. It fits perfectly.
>>
>>17050143
First, you have to define what you mean by 'problem'. But even before that, you first need to define 'define'.

>>17050141
the existence of an absolute reference frame is only in agreement with Mach's principle if you assume the universe's total angular and linear momentum are exactly zero, in other words in such a way that it drops out of all observable quantities.
>>

Well in that reference frame yes. Thats how you can define it.
