Peter Saint-Andre: Philosophies and Ways of Life In his book What Is Ancient Philosophy?, Pierre Hadot almost singlehandedly resurrected the ancient conception of philosophy as a way of life. Consider this observation about the philosophical schools of Greece and Rome: "For us moderns, the notion of a philosophical school evokes only the idea of a doctrinal tendency or theoretical position. Things were very different in antiquity. No university obligations oriented the future philosopher toward a specific school; instead, the futur ... ⌘ Read more

Ignite Realtime Blog: Openfire 4.6.7 released (Log4j 2.17.1 only change) Openfire 4.6.7 has been released with only a single change to bump the bundled log4j library to version 2.17.1. Whilst we do not believe Openfire to be vulnerable to the CVEs associated with the log4j 2.17.0 and 2.17.1 releases, we realize that many folks are running naive security scanners that are simply checking for bundled jar versions.

Peter Saint-Andre: Meditations on Bach #9: Musical Monadology In meditation #7 of this series, I took note of some similarities between the aesthetics of Aristotle and the music of Bach. Another intriguing influence might be the monadology of Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz (1646-1716), who directly influenced philosophers and musical theorists in the Bach's orbit: for instance, Bach's student Lorenz Mizler (1711-1778) was a follower of the Leibniz scholar Christian Wolff (1679-1754). In chapter 5 of his book Music in the Culture of th ... ⌘ Read more
