Wow. Immunity vs.Community

 

Well, I've been working for two weeks on my Audio Handbook. I've spent a lot of time on the website component, which I have built using Drupal.

I purchased a cheap domain for $1.99 -- www.soundstory.info

Here's a screenshot:

 My u-News proposal here

 

"u-News" - a scalable network of open-source, community-based news sites, offering free online tools to help local residents post their own news stories, using mobile devices, cameras, text messages, mp3s & video.

 

This is something I am interested in pursuing as a Master's-level academic project.

What does anything mean? If you question the basis of any assumption, do you end up in a sargasso sea of relativism where you have no common framework for discussion?

 

Expressivism in meta-ethics is a theory about the meaning of moral language. According to expressivism, sentences that employ moral terms–for example, “It is wrong to torture an innocent human being”–are not descriptive or fact-stating; moral terms such as “wrong,” “good,” or “just” do not refer to real, in-the-world properties. The primary function of moral sentences, according to expressivism, is not to assert any matter of fact, but rather to express an evaluative attitude toward an object of evaluation.[1] Because the function of moral language is non-descriptive, moral sentences do not have any truth conditions.[2] Hence, expressivists either do not allow that moral sentences have truth value, or rely on a notion of truth that does not appeal to any descriptive truth conditions being met for moral sentences.

I feel like the freedom to create, and to write in this kind a free environment is intoxicating. But it also feels intimidating, 

after spending so much time in an educational system where conventions of instruction often overcome the activity of learning

 

The Rulebook for Arguments Ch 1.

The point of arguing?  To explore ideas.

ID Premises and Conclusions

Start from Reliable Premises

Be Concrete and Concise

Build on Substance, not Overtone

Use consistent terms

 

These notes are for myself. I think this little book is pretty helpful. It codifies things that I think good writers do instinctively.

 

I'm not sure what to do with the Wiki.

Today's Helpful Hint: Monkeys may be funny and cute, but they can
also chew off your scrotum or tear off your face if you make them angry.
If you are invited to a monkey birthday party, make sure to bring enough

Is technical writing necessarily devoid of creaivity?
