Thanks for this brief recap. It is also worth mentioning Heidegger's development of his concept of "idle talk" in his What is Called Thinking? seminar. He later called it "one track thinking", a kind of misfire thinking as opposed to Ontological thinking that ponders Being along with it. One track thinking is non-thinking.
Thank you-an interesting question. Post Heideggerian philosophers such as Foucault speak of raptures in the fabric of knowledge, convention, whereby the truth (its function) appears. Heidegger, of course has a different (presocratic) conception of truth-alethia-disclosure. It is then a disclosure of being, by beings (us) who are defined by their openness to the meaning of being.

Yes, I agree. I think your use of the word misfire is astute.
Appreciated this.
Is that distinction between the ontic and the ontological an ontic, or an ontological one?
