Is a picture worth a thousand words? Elaborate.
If the picture is a mathematical proof, or provokes some sort of realisation or epiphany. If a short film(1000s of images) stimulates the same thoughts as -1984- did, i'd say they were equally worthwhile. In the same sense, by extension a single moment last night was worth 1000 words in what it expressed to me.
Where’s Waldo?
not sure, when was he last active on the forums?.

RE: Personal Questions Interview
Should clarify, not so much the peak of your career, but the peak of your ingenuity and mental faculty.
I know biology alone wasn't the cause, but didn't Newton make most his progress in optics, calculus and gravity that age? Probably coincidence, but thats my reasoning anyway... Tongue

RE: Personal Questions Interview
Yeah he was /pretty/ incredible.

Apart from some Buddhist and Marcus Aurelius texts, i'm mostly interested in epistemology and metaphysics. What about you, TGE? Big Grin

RE: Personal Questions Interview
Everything. Tongue

Actually, I'm mostly interested in analytical philosophy.

My favorite thing to study is the philosophical side of the abortion debate, but that's not usually very fun to talk about. Dodgy I guess my second favorite thing is stuff dealing with the mind and personal identity (e.g. necessary and sufficient conditions for persistence of the self, what happens in a mind swap hypothetical, physicalism vs. mind-body dualism, etc.). After that, I like meta-ethics a lot. Epistemology is good, though it's sometimes a bit dry to read (or the little I've read of it; basically just the first few chapters of Huemer's Skepticism and the Veil of Perception). I will say, though, that I'm planning on beginning a trek through the jungles of virtue epistemology.

RE: Personal Questions Interview
Yeah I know what you mean, I was first introduced to Philosophy through hypothetical AI consciousness, so Decartes dualism is familar.
I agree with you on epistemology too, but having some sort of backgroujd thought makes science assignments easier Tongue
