A bit of a tangent, but Etsy lost me (and likely some amount of other sellers) when they pushed so hard on free shipping. Not all products are amenable to this, and we wound up losing money on every shipped item under the new plans. Ebay also did this at some point in the past, with the same results.
Those two, and this example has me wondering why these companies continue to side with the buyers?
Ministers can redefine the word superpower, and you can downvote me, but with it being defined as, "A superpower is a state with a dominant position characterized by its extensive ability to exert influence or project power on a global scale."[1] the US still is in that set of countries with extensive influence.
It seems to me that an introduction to philosophy that maintains both interest and graspability is in the philosophy of science.
All of the sciences began in philosophy. When the great big questions that invoke a great deal of discussion over meaning subside, that science has gone on to supersede its parent: This happened with physics in the 17th century, biology, and psychology. If you want to ask great big questions of a discipline that are often frowned upon within that discipline, philosophy is a place to engage in this type of discourse.
Further, the lines of _what a discipline is_ are typically drawn in philosophy, not within the discipline itself. This is a frequent discourse in the philosophy of science. As, the question of, "what is science" doesn't seem well suited to be answered by any science in particular.
Pedantry aside, the parent comment is clearly in the set of humanity alongside yourself, and they made a clear argument for wires. While you might disagree with wires, this dismissive comment was unnecessary.
