This is probably linked to "Me vs Atheism"
Being , being and Dasein
Dasein is "being there" or "being here" or more accurately "being the there" or "being the here"
Being (which should not be capitalised) is approximately "INTELIGIBILITY"; being allows stuff to occur AS what it is
What does Heidegger mean by being?
Dasein is the kind of being that human beings have
To speak of this in common parlance (which is self-evidently problematic) we can talk about what being human feels like as the experience of living "from the inside", and what being human looks like "from the outside".
Dasein is what being human feels like "from the inside".
Heidegger thinks that the whole "inside" and "outside" thing is mistake, a consequence of a Cartesian way of thinking about ourselves and the world which we have become steeped in.
In "Being and Time" Heidegger is interested in 3 types of being: (1) Present at hand (2) Ready to hand and (3) Dasein
"a being" we can think of as an #instance of a particular type or category of being.
Why do I care?
What do I care what Heidegger thinks?
Heidegger's philosophy is practically useful because it gives us an insight into what makes a difference in the actual practice of a skill
What is my interest in Heidegger?
Dreyfus "Skilful coping"
The process of learning a skill involves it becoming gradually more #transparent .
#Experts act by virtue of #intuitive response based on recognising thousands of subtly different #variations... the attempt to formalise expertise into #rules is always going to fail to reproduce real expertise.
"Skillful coping"
The kind of being called "Ready-to-hand" is the kind of being that #tools have.
Recent neuroscience and psychology has confirmed that primary experience of the world is an experience of #tools not an experience of #objects
We derive our concept of objects from our experience of tools, not the other way round !
"Our" world is #NOT fundamentally composed of #objects with #properties ... it is composed of #tools having #affordances that in agregate go to make up an equipmental whole.
A phenomenology of effective problem-solving
All the tools go together to make up an #Equipmental #whole
An #affordance is an "opening for action" ... some operation that the tool allows for you to do with it.
Probably not even "tools with affordances" ... because what determines the toolness of the tool is the set of affordances ... so primarily what is given is a set of affordances.
One of Heidegger's insights is that our world is not primarily composed of Cartesian objects with properties.
Rather it is composed of tools with affordances - operations that you can undertake with the tool, ie. "openings for action".
Objects with properties can be derived as a secondary analysis - but objects are not what is primarily given to us.
Consequently our first understanding of a/the world arises from acting within it, ie. #playing .

Dasein is in each case an un-asked-for gift; possibly a surprise, even.
Dasein is in each case mine.
