@MartinEscardo@mathstodon.xyz Yes, I see what you mean, now that you say more. And this fits with lived experience. We lose as well as win, though. Sometimes we fool ourselves and come a-cropper. But intuition leads exploration, and foundations follow on.

@pigworker@types.pl @MartinEscardo@mathstodon.xyz I may suggest that 20th century epistemology has been full of debates around the dichotomy between so called context of discovery and context of justification. It appears that recent use of certain automated systems has given them a revival. (Genetic as in generation has also been used for context of discovery I think. Too far from my library at the moment to check though.)
