People are not black-boxes. We are not simple (or even complex) instances of a 
class of some kind. OOP's is a very powerful means for creating meaning and 
action in machines and artificial systems but as a metaphor for human beingness 
it seems too neat to account for the complexity and multi-valent connectivity 
that exists between us. We are messy creatures without clear boundaries to 
individuate us. Our definition is probably less about things (or objects) than

 I can’t claim that I know too much about object oriented philosophy. It’s 
 often more about my friends or colleagues talking about it, enthusiastically 
 for or against. Indeed, I have been one of those who has at best followed 
 some of the arguments but not really dipped too deeply into the debates – 
 which from early on, formed around specific persons, specific arguments, and 
 a specific way of interacting.
 
 Hence, let me just be naïve for a second, and think aloud a couple of 
 questions:
 
 -  I wonder if there is a problem with the notion of object in the sense 
 that it still implies paradoxically quite a correlationist, or lets say, 
 human-centred view to the world; is not the talk of “object” something that 
 summons an image of perceptible, clearly lined, even stable entity – 
 something that to human eyes could be thought of as the normal mode of 
 perception. We see objects in the world. Humans, benches, buses, cats, 
 trashcans, gloves, computers, images, and so forth. But what would a cat, 
 bench, bus, trashcan, or a computer “see”, or sense?

Are you sure we should be thinking in terms of object orientated

I was too distracted by the confusion as to whether we should

hello,

yep, not sure OOP¨has something to do with OOP


cite Graham Harman

“Object-Oriented Philosophy”

This term is my own coinage, dating to 1999. (If anyone used the phrase 
earlier than that, I was unaware of it but would be happy to credit it 
if it is brought to my attention.)

(...)

In short, object-oriented philosophy involves a fairly general set of 
minimal standards that leaves a good bit of room for personal variation. 
You can agree with Whitehead rather than me and still be an 
object-oriented philosopher. My own version has not just one, but two 
basic principles:

1. Individual entities of various different scales (not just tiny quarks 
and electrons) are the ultimate stuff of the cosmos.

2. These entities are never exhausted by any of their relations or even 
by their sum of all possible relations. Objects withdraw from relation.

There is no question in my mind that object oriented philosophy is
borne from and related to notions of object oriented programming. If
we accept that, then it's interesting to see yet another way in which
computer programming and code-concepts are permeating our contemporary
culture. However, I'm not quite sure I see the point. It looks like
they're essentially taking age-old philosophical concepts and
considerations and putting them in a new wrapper. If nothing else then
perhaps it will make it easier for programmers to understand some
philosophical concepts.

Re: [NetBehaviour] OOQ – Object-Oriented-Questions.

2011-12-30 Thread IR3ABF
What should object oriented philosophy be about in an age where the 
paradigmatic divide between object and subject is a long past station?

To me it appears to be a rather 'subjective' way to connect a 'popular' issue 
i.e. programming practices with a vague notion of 'philosophy' and should not 
be taken too seriously

Same goes for OOP as the 'only just' way to formalize current programming 
techniques as it is just a way among others to 'look' at a certain field of 
theoretical approaches to practical problems i.e. optimizing code, for we have 
had before 'lineair coding', heuristic coding(spaghetti) and other 'schools' of 
best practise

During my training as software engineer early 90ties different -commercialized 
and evangelized -methods were accentuated (RUP, Agile a.o.) wheras during my 
mathematics and informatics studies - late 70ties, beginning 80ties - more 
accent was given to 'result driven' approaches such as assembler/compiler 
techniques

Comparing these two, give rise to suspect that whatever is 'a la mode' gets the 
most attention and followers, complete with a course/certification industry to 
serve the corporate trendy attitude

I never figured out althought on what premisses these paradigma shift were 
grounded apart for the gain in 'time to market' and not in anyway based on 
scientifically based decisions

BTW have a look at my 'new' FB bashing program (written in js and php):

http://apps.facebook.com/whathef-/

(FB login required)

and have a look at the simple straightforward code, with a nice example of 
using recursion in js -

function vote(obj){
...
setTimeout(vote(obj), 200), raises/lowers the percentages automatically
...
}

whereas with the following simple php code snippet the program is able to track 
the ip nr's and eventually corresponding domains from every visitor/user:

fwrite($file,$REMOTE_ADDR)

Currently I am working to gather all the public available information about 
users/visitors to be logged using the 'Open Graph API' from FB, which by the 
way is heavily structured around a object oriented coding 'view'

In the making: a same kind of simple program to mess with the Dow 
Jones/Euronext indices, just for the fun of subverting extremely influential 
figures

[NetBehaviour] Psychogeodata 2/3

2011-12-30 Thread Rob Myers
Image: http://robmyers.org/2011/12/30/derive_sem_example.png

Blog post including links:

http://robmyers.org/2011/12/30/psychogeodata-23/

Geodata represents maps as graphs of nodes joined by edges (...as points
joined by lines). This is a convenient representation for processing by
computer software. Other data can be represented in this way, including
words and their relationships.

We can map the names of streets into the semantic graph of WordNet using
NLTK. We can then establish how similar words are by searching the
semantic graph to find how far apart they are. This semantic distance
can be used instead of geographic distance when deciding which nodes to
choose when pathfinding.

Mapping between these two spaces (or two graphs) is a conceptual
mapping, and searching lexicographic space using hypernyms allows
abstraction and conceptual slippage to be introduced into what would
otherwise be simple pathfinding. This defamiliarizes and conceptually
enriches the constructed landscape, two key elements of Psychogeography.

The example above was created by the script derive_sem, which creates
random walks between semantically related nodes. It's easy to see the
relationship between the streets it has chosen. You can see the html
version of the generated file here, and the script is included with the
Psychogeodata project at https://gitorious.org/robmyers/psychogeodata .

(Part one of this series can be found here, part three will cover
potential future directions for Psychogeodata.)

Re: [NetBehaviour] fb bashing app [was: Object-Oriented-Questions]

Hi James

You should accept the 'security exception', it is merely that the  
domain nictoglobe.com does not issues 'trusted certificates' as is  
necessary for a proper https connection

You also can try to connect 'insecure' to:

http://nictoglobe.com/canvas/index.php

to avoid the hassle, bypassing both FB and https!

Actually the program does nothing special, it displays several silly  
alert windows, stating your stupidity versus FB's whether you go up or  
down

Just give it a try, it does not harm and you can always check the code  
beforehand( view page source in FF)

Best

Re: [NetBehaviour] OOQ – Object-Oriented-Questions.

2011-12-30 Thread Pall Thayer
I agree with some of your points, andreas. I do think that latching on to
terminology that is en vogue may be a factor but then again, isn't that
often what sparks new ways of looking at things? Taking ideas from one
field and exploring how they might apply to another? I'm not going to
criticize the use of an oop approach to philosophy. I think its a very
valid consideration within the context of the contemporary. Its intriguing
but in all honesty, I'm not convinced that it will amount to much. As I
said, isn't it just a repackaging of old arguments? Aren't we still faced
with the question of how we define a shoe if I decide to use it to open a
bottle of wine? In ooprogramming, objects are very clearly defined. They
will absolutely not allow methods that haven't been assigned to them. When
applied to philosophy, it sounds a bit like a return to constructivism, no?
And if they try to say that their use of object oriented is entirely
different, then we have to ask, well, then why did you use that term if
you didn't want the two to be compared? But who knows where it may lead if
we don't explore it?

 What should object oriented philosophy be about in an age where the
 paradigmatic divide between object and subject is a long past station?

 To me it appears to be a rather 'subjective' way to connect a 'popular'
 issue i.e. programming practices with a vague notion of 'philosophy' and
 should not be taken too seriously

 Same goes for OOP as the 'only just' way to formalize current programming
 techniques as it is just a way among others to 'look' at a certain field of
 theoretical approaches to practical problems i.e. optimizing code, for we
 have had before 'lineair coding', heuristic coding(spaghetti) and other
 'schools' of best practise

 During my training as software engineer early 90ties different
 -commercialized and evangelized -methods were accentuated (RUP, Agile a.o.)
 wheras during my mathematics and informatics studies - late 70ties,
 beginning 80ties - more accent was given to 'result driven' approaches such
 as assembler/compiler techniques

 Comparing these two, give rise to suspect that whatever is 'a la mode'
 gets the most attention and followers, complete with a course/certification
 industry to serve the corporate trendy attitude

 I never figured out althought on what premisses these paradigma shift were
 grounded apart for the gain in 'time to market' and not in anyway based on
 scientifically based decisions

 BTW have a look at my 'new' FB bashing program (written in js and php):

 http://apps.facebook.com/whathef-/

 (FB login required)

 and have a look at the simple straightforward code, with a nice example of
 using recursion in js -

 function vote(obj){
 ...
 setTimeout(vote(obj), 200), raises/lowers the percentages automatically
 ...
 }

 whereas with the following simple php code snippet the program is able to
 track the ip nr's and eventually corresponding domains from every
 visitor/user:

 fwrite($file,$REMOTE_ADDR)

 Currently I am working to gather all the public available information
 about users/visitors to be logged using the 'Open Graph API' from FB, which
 by the way is heavily structured around a object oriented coding 'view'

 In the making: a same kind of simple program to mess with the Dow
 Jones/Euronext indices, just for the fun of subverting extremely
 influential figures

 There is no question in my mind that object oriented philosophy is

 borne from and related to notions of object oriented programming. If

 we accept that, then it's interesting to see yet another way in which

 computer programming and code-concepts are permeating our contemporary

 culture. However, I'm not quite sure I see the point. It looks like

 they're essentially taking age-old philosophical concepts and

 considerations and putting them in a new wrapper. If nothing else then

 perhaps it will make it easier for programmers to understand some

 philosophical concepts.

 There are various different versions of OOP:

 In particular, multimethod-based OOP doesn't require that objects own or

 contain the actions that can be performed upon them:

Hi Pall, James, Yann ( et al)

I just read some definitions of de-obfuscating code, and suddenly recognised 
that I am a very naive coder! -;)

But nevertheless still enjoying doing it, maybe because all that cryptic secret 
stuff is something not directly connected to coding 'an sich' but has more to 
do with protecting source/code in an environment where maliciousness is an 
apparently dominant practice

The 'evil doers' - spam, cialis, viagra etc - you pointed to in your link are 
more or less negative creatives, whereas I and - I think - a lot of others are 
just 'creatives'.

Then I wonder if a felt - or lived - 'naivity' will not - in the long term - 
survive as a 'positive' force contrary to the 'negative' forces of the 'spam' 
politics of 'the war on terror', built on a 'negative' and de/fensive 
philosophy, resulting in ... well obfuscating even our 'lived' environment, 
examplified by borders, fences, certificates, examination and more 'artificial' 
coded social and relational 'programs'

To critisize these phenomena one needs to able to both code and de/code these 
constructs and therefore step outside that same positive 'naivity'.

So to recap the comparision between OOPh and OOP can give insights in terrains 
not being connected at first sight, but when put in a broader context have more 
in common than we maybe want them to have, the 'contemporary' is yet so 
obfuscated that is a necessity to de/obfuscate it in a way directly connected 
to our societal 'existence' , which makes it a 'philosophical' issue par 
excellence!
