When reading about Brouwer's concept of Two-ity and how that's related to the problem of real numbers I had the vague idea that I had seen something similar before ... Peircean Thirdness.
That's not fully correct but it touches a few deep common points. And things that I failed to understand the significance of when reading Susan Haack Deviant Logic. Brower, Peirce, there is a lot to explore.
Other people had similar thoughts.

@yoginho this said, did you, by any chance, read any of what #SusanHaack wrote on the topic of Realism (or truth)? She was one of my first "teachers"... and I still give her much respect, even if I've learned to accept more perspectives.

@adewebb @pyrrho19 @e_sphaera @blooming_rose @jdewveall @philosophy @mishi @theologidons I "met" #SusanHaack at the beginning of my journey. Her journey has led her to many places, and her views on problems highlighted things I hadn't even heard of.
