It would be completely random, with all events being equally likely at every point in time. It would have no history, since the past has no effect on the present or future
The question is whether causality exists in the territory at all.
Causality is a useful tool in the map, to describe the territory. The Territory just is. It doesn't have causality, laws of physics or anything else. Those are just the best tools we have to form accurate maps of it.
Is there some reason this article hasn't been promoted to the frontpage?
If people agree on what the term means, and they can read a book and detect (or not) colonial alienation, and thus have a test for post-utopianism, and different people will reach the same conclusions about any given book
By hypothesis, none of those things are true. If those things happen to be true for "post-utopianism" in the real world, substitute a different word that people use inconsistently and doesn't refer to anything useful.
But, from the article:
you can nonetheless take many literary professors and separately show them new pieces of writing by unknown authors and they'll all independently arrive at the same answer, in which case they're clearly detecting some sensory-visible feature of the writing.
Seems like what I was saying...
I don't understand the part about post-utopianism being meaningless. If people agree on what the term means, and they can read a book and detect (or not) colonial alienation, and thus have a test for post-utopianism, and different people will reach the same conclusions about any given book, then how exactly is the term meaningless?
Normal people define "true" as "good enough; not worth looking at too closely". Nerds define "true" as "irrefutable even by the highest-level nerd you are likely to encounter in this context." Hence more or less all of Western philosophy, theology, science, etc.; and hence normal people's acceptance that contradictory things can be "true" at the same time.
(Yes, I'm problematizing your contrast between various groups you dislike and "normal people".)
and hence normal people's acceptance that nerd-contradictory things can be normal-"true" at the same time.
Namespaced that for you.
Does the function perform as imagined, or does it lead to new issues?
Romeo brought up a great point, that it may have been a psychological barrier.
It leads to annoyance for me. Whenever you switch into a tab, it starts loading (from the point of view of someone who wasn't aware the page hadn't loaded, it seemed to be reloading). As soon as I saw BrassLion's post, I went into the options and disabled it.
I'm moving to Seattle in September. If you're looking to move in that area, send me a PM or comment.

Does anyone know of a way to convert .anki files to .apkg files?
I recently started using anki, but most of the decks I downloaded are .anki, and can't be opened by ankidroid...
