> I always felt like Wittgenstein deeply hated philosophy and all his work was aimed at showing its meaninglessness Well, Wittgenstein was an Engineer - he started (then) leaning towards Aeronautics, which brought him to Mathematics, which brought him to Foundational Formal Logic, which brought him to Bertrand Russell (after Gottlob Frege), which brought him to Philosophy. It is kind of normal for foundationalists and engineers to be "discriminating" towards "solidity". But is effort was positive towards obtaining "discriminating logical engines". |
