Weird how much Lil' Hitler looks like Papa Hitler

And the shadow of his nose looks like the winstache.

There was a discussion on this earlier, it turned into a discussion about Penelope Maddy. I'd be interested in reading some Witttgenstein too, but he seems hard. I think for now I'll just stick to his wikis and summaries. Tell all about him after you've finished reading.

little hitler looks so much like adult hitler.

Pay close attention to him. Except ignore everything he says about therapy and trying to stop doing philosophy.

Also, note that despite his rejection of a lot of earlier work he says that in this work he follows Frege's context principle. You'll find the reference in the index under Frege, I think it's S49. I point this out so you don't become a "hurr Wittgenstein destroyed philosophy" nerd.

I have nothing of importance to add to the thread, but I do agree that that pic is enoyable.

i read about his picture theory.. and it very well fits the modern descriptions in the philosophy behind modeling.. Although, i dont see any big fuzz about this.. i figured out the limitations and the implications of modeling when i was like 20 by myself.

I only read about his picture theory because is commonly cited in science. Im completely ignorant about the rest of his work, but if it stays at the same level i wouldn't be impressed at all.

Was Hitler balls to the wall rich?
