I wrote up my personal philosophy on translating ancient texts, as informed by being raised in a religious environment that had a very unhealthy relationship to its texts. https://xn--hmr.net/classicalchinese/translationphilosophy/ #classicalchinese #translation #localization #philosophy

穷则独善其身, 达则兼济天下 When you are poor, take care of your soul; when you are rich, take care of the world. — Mengzi (Mencius) #classicalchinese #translation #philosophy

WHEN HUMANS BECAME POOR It Wasn’t When We Lost Money — It Was When We Lost Something Deeper We didn’t become poor because we had less— we became poor when we forgot what enough feels like. A short reflection on money, mindset, and meaning. 🔗 Link in first reply https://medium.com/@dianabasieseme_60028/when-humans-became-poor-cb32056d3674?sk=2fc1c95af54c3fad9b795967b7f33418 🖼️ Visual created with AI #WritingCommunity #Philosophy #Psychology #SelfAwareness #Minimalism #ConsciousLiving #Fediverse

https://www.anthropic.com/news/claude-new-constitution Anthropic’s Claude sounds far too anthropomorphic to me. What glimmer of honesty is there in presupposing ‘Training models’ can extrapolate from the information processed to create the imagination of a self-conscious being? A machine no matter how good at decision making is not a human mind. It is not an oxymoron to suppose that humans are transcendental, so can be evolutionarily superseded by creating machines in their own image? Certainly they cannot alter the foundation of the categories that constitutes the manifold of the dialectic principle. Any set of Autonomous drivers even if distributed in parallel within a self repairing and adaptive network, cannot transcend the science of its logic. It is therefore an error to equate Ai with the credence of the mind that can be otherwise. It has a conscious identity not dependent on controls, looping, rewriting and the mimicry of human ideas like the machine’s code. Being self-conscious, the mind is free to comprehend that which is partially intelligible or imagine it is otherwise, the later is not. #Ai #Philosophy #Foundation #cybernetics #DialecticPrinciple

Great article about one of my philosophical heroes, Michel Foucault — still incredibly relevant in a world saturated with social media. Something I’ve only just realised: one of the core ideas I’ve carried for years is really a paraphrasing of his work on power and knowledge (via Hilary Lawson): “Science is not powerful because it is true — it is true because it is powerful.” https://theconversation.com/40-years-after-his-death-michel-foucaults-philosophy-still-speaks-to-a-world-saturated-with-social-media-232589?utm_medium=article_clipboard_share&utm_source=theconversation.com #philosophy #Foucault #criticaltheory #socialmedia #powerandknowledge #digitalculture #criticalthinking

Here’s a thought: with capitalism the corporation can take your property, with fascism the corporation can take your body and with transhumanism it can take your mind. What’s left? #philosophy #KnowledgeOfTheDialectic

Depression fundamentally rewires linguistic interpretation, transforming neutral communication into a complex field of emotional landmines.
