“Tools may be animate as well as inanimate; for instance, a ship's captain uses a lifeless rudder, but a living man for watch; for a servant is, from the point of view of his craft, categorized as one of its tools.

“One of the most important analytic tools when assessing an investment is an intellectually advantaged disparate view. This includes knowing more and perceiving the situation better than others do. It is also critical to have a keen understanding of what the market expectations for any investment truly are. Thus, the process by which a disparate perception, when correct, becomes consensus should lead to meaningful profit. Understanding market expectation is at least as important as, and often different from fundamental knowledge.” ShouldImportantDifferentProcessUnderstandingViewsSituationKnowingPerceptionExpectationsToolsFundamentalsInvestmentProfitCriticalMeaningfulConsensusAnalyticsAssessingKnowing More Author:Michael Steinhardt
“In my view, there was a long period in which analytical philosophy had little to say about ethics. I think their intellectual tools did not do well with it, and analytical philosophy was above all about revolutionizing the philosophical tool box. It was more or less assumed that the Truth about ethics was some form of utilitarianism (perhaps because some consequentialist calculus looked to them like a respectable tool). Kantian ethics was then interpreted as a particularly odious version of the False - "deontology" - and treated with contempt.” ThinkingWellsLittlesLongPhilosophyFormViewsPeriodsIntellectualEthicsToolsPhilosophicalBoxesTreatedVersionsContemptRespectableCalculusUtilitarianismTool Boxes Author:Allen W.
