Philosophy

Philosophy is the study of general and fundamental problems, such as those connected with reality, existence, knowledge, values, reason, mind, and language.[1][2] Philosophy is distinguished from other ways of addressing such problems by its critical, generally systematic approach and its reliance on rational argument.[3] In more casual speech, by extension, "philosophy" can refer to "the most basic beliefs, concepts, and attitudes of an individual or group".[4] The word "philosophy" comes from the Ancient Greek φιλοσοφία (philosophia), which literally means "love of wisdom".[5][6][7] The introduction of the terms "philosopher" and "philosophy" has been ascribed to the Greek thinker Pythagoras.[8] http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Philosophy

Paul Graham thinks it went in the wrong direction. Instead of trying to answer the question: "What are the most general truths?" Let's try to answer the question: "Of all the useful things we can say, which are the most general?"... These seem to me what philosophy should look like: quite general observations that would cause someone who understood them to do (Actionable) something differently.
