just as unpredictability does not entail inexplicability, so predictability does not entail explicability

taking stock so far, i basically think this is a 10/10 book so far. we're heading into chapter 10 which seems like a turning point and im anxious (/pos) to see what comes next

also i just wanna say, i really enjoy his writing style. it's nice and comfortable and clever. i adored the kautsky reference with "road to power", there are so many subtle things like that

i like the sophrosuni virtue, it comes up in nietzsche every now and again

"there are indeed crucial conflicts in which different virtues appear as making rival and incompatible claims upon us. but our situation is tragic in that we have to recognize the authority of both claims. there is an objective moral order, but

our perceptions of it are such that we cannot bring rival moral truths into complete harmony with each other and yet the acknowledgment of the moral order and of the moral truth makes the kind of choice which a weber or a berlin urges upon us out of the question.
