#Rationalism is a philosophical position or view that #reason is the source of knowledge.
Vernon J. #Bourke wrote that rationalism is defined as a methodology or a theory "in which the criterion of #truth is not sensory but intellectual and deductive."

A quotation from Franklin, Benjamin:
«««««
If all the People of different Opinions in this Province would engage to give me as much for not printing things they don’t like, as I can get by printing them, I should probably live a very easy Life; and if all Printers were every where so dealt by, there would be very little printed.

@DavidElfstrom Oh my: "He said he worries about people of all ages, from his students to older people re-evaluating plans to retire in Kamloops because of the yearly wildfires."
It's adverse selection. The people coming/staying are those who don't care, and the others don't come or move away.

@mariafarrell: "Why would anyone do the right thing from the beginning when they can take the money, have their fun, and then, when the wind changes, convert their status and relative wealth into special pleading and a whole new career?"
"Google didn’t change. It just started treating some of its insiders like it already treated outsiders."
"Allowing people who share responsibility for our tech dystopia to keep control of the narrative means we never get to the bottom of how and why we got here, and we artificially narrow the possibilities for where we go next. And centering people who were insiders before and claim to be leading the outsiders now doesn’t help the overall case for tech accountability."

#WhiteSupremacy "is profitable. #Racism divides workforces, keeping wages low. It drives up property values in “nice” (white) neighborhoods. It keeps more money flowing to majority-white schools. It squeezes people of color into precarious lives, making them easier to exploit. That keeps food, restaurants, and service work cheap. White supremacy isn’t just a bad habit, a holdover from the past, or a personality or cultural trait. It’s a business model right now."

Major new @pewresearch study on changes since 2000 in how #publicopinion polls are conducted in the US. Worth a look for both researchers and anyone who feels like polling got worse recently. https://www.pewresearch.org/methods/2023/04/19/how-public-polling-has-changed-in-the-21st-century/
"To say something factually correct is already to have an #opinion on what to do with it."
Lauréline #Fontaine: "In a society of law built since the end of the Middle Ages around the protection of trade and exchange, truth has progressively acquired the status of a social necessity: it excludes uncertainty and produces the trust necessary for the maintenance and development of exchanges."
"The category of truth in the social space is not - in fact - the object of a monopoly (including in a scientific community tightly bound around certain protocols intended to produce it): the category of #truth is a very liberal practice, or even neo-liberal to use a paradigm of analysis that has become commonplace today. It is the object of a form of permanent competition, depending on the means available to some and others to appropriate it or reveal it."
