What does the "positive" in Positivism really imply? by Ocsis2in philosophy

[–]neolduser 0 points1 point ago

I've had it explained to me that it's useful to think of Positivism coming from the word posit. Within positivism the world posits itself to us revealing what it really is. As such it is often criticized for denying the metaphysical philosophical and subjective judgments we make about the world that inform our methodology, constitute our biases and other value assumptions. You might get a more complete answer if you asked this in r/philosophyofscience.

Casino workers of reddit, what are some things that we patrons may not know about casinos? by legion26in AskReddit

[–]neolduser 2 points3 points ago

Excuse my ignorance but according to these interpretations(or others I guess) of the law how can it even be argued that the TSA is not a violation of the Fourth Amendment?

Question about the running abilities of a playboat by bdogg54in whitewater

[–]neolduser 5 points6 points ago

I playboat up to Class IV+. It's just not as easy as in a giant creeker or something. Good way to learn better eddy turns and edge control and you get to catch the one-hit wonder surf waves and do down river play moves. The Transformer is a decent river runner but is so wide and retentive it's also hole-bait so try to stay away from anything super sticky.

Wait are you saying a firebender killed Toph?

Can we change the name of the SFW porn network? Having the word "porn" in my history kind of defeats the purpose by cragelrain AskReddit

[–]neolduser 0 points1 point ago

Technically couldn't the admins do it at the request of the mods of the subreddits and it's subscribers?

I am not a religious person but don't you think that you shouldn't be subscribed to r/atheism automatically like you are not subscribed to r/christianity or r/islam or r/judaism? by dbalciin AskReddit

[–]neolduser 0 points1 point ago

r/atheism is a default because the majority of redditors are atheist

Or are the majority of reddit atheists because r/atheism is a default?

What causes teeth to go yellow, and how can the discoloration be safely reversed? by pmac135in askscience

How does bleaching teeth work?

TIL Toph was meant to be a "muscular, jock type, bad-mouthing teenager" but was later changed to be a little girl. The initial design was then re-used as Roku's Earthbending instructor, Sud. by FireLordOzaiin TheLastAirbender

[–]neolduser 37 points38 points ago

Not having Toph be Toph would have been a travesty. She and Iroh are my two favorite characters. Every time I go through the series I am super anxious until she's introduced in season 2. As soon as she shows up the series(already awesome) kicks it up a notch.

My local steep creek is running the highest it's been in a decade. Things got a little hairy yesterday. by neolduserin whitewater

[–]neolduser[S] 1 point2 points ago

The cameras are on top of a near vertical cliff. Repel access only. There are very few eddies and well setting safety on this run is super-crazy hard.

Just curious what level of rescue knowledge would you expect from someone on the river? What rescue training do you have if any at all? by SaltyPancakesin whitewater

[–]neolduser 1 point2 points ago

I only hesitantly boat Class IV with people who aren't swiftwater rescue trained and never Class V. Class V kayaking is a team sport and if you're doing it right you're constantly scouting and setting up safety. You gotta rely on the people around you.

If 100 anthropologists were stranded on an island and built a new society, would that society and its hierarchy emerge, just like any other, or would they constantly observe and discuss the process on a meta-level? by cocoon56in Anthropology

[–]neolduser 12 points13 points ago

I would watch the crap out of "100 Anthropologists on an Island" as well as it's inevitable sequels "100 Politicians on an Island, and "100 Economists on an Island with 100 Coconut Trees".
