Books

This weekend I read a small chapter in Aristotle that utterly shocked me. 

I could hardly believe it was Aristotle saying it, I went into the Greek to make sure it was not mistranslated. 

Like a light flicking on, it helped me to give clear form to an intuition that has turned inside me for years. 

Great luck.

Put Tim's set of cryptic tweets with some background info into o1 pro and asked it to guess what Tim was talking about. The results are (top 3 guesses- thought for 2min 29 sec): 

1. The Fragile Nature of Virtue, Pleasure, and Happiness
2. The Subtlety of “Contemplation” (Theôria) and the Highest Goods
3. The Idea of “Self-Love” in Relation to Friendship

Do any of these sound close? I won't expand on any of them since Tim didn't, just in case they're actually right haha. But honestly ChatGPT could probably figure it out from these hints lmao.

Haha. These are all very interesting topics, but not major differences between the Eudemian and Nicomachen Ethics (or the specific experience that prompted these allusions)

I think we’ll discuss it one day.
