reply guys

/replyguys channel seems to be a philosophical paradox:

If: replies can only come into existence when there is some cast to reply to

And if: channels only exist with casts

And if: replyguys only reply

And if: /replyguys contains only replyguys

Then: /replyguys cannot exist

Yet: /replyguys does exist

Help, Xeno!

I’d like everyone to welcome Question-the-Definitional-Premise to the party!

all casts we have read before us influence our decision making so in a way every cast is a reply to a cast

As long as tervo continues to post we’ll all be okay

reply guys are indeed presocratic thinkerers.

In my opinion, this is most definitely a reply

I haven't quite figured this app out yet, does this count as a reply?

The most common side effect of a paradox!

You know, you would make made an excellent Sophist!

Ugh I’m being such a reply guy here but I think every top-level channel cast is actually a reply to the channel URL. So technically with your cast you’re being a reply guy as well.

Something are better left unsaid. Recommend no more news like these, for the sake of the people, our industry (and every replyguy business).”
