Reality Apologetics: July 2009
http://re-ap.blogspot.com/2009_07_01_archive.html
Wednesday, July 29, 2009. Having Your Qualia and Eating Your Physics Too. Can we coherently acknowledge the existence of qualia. Without being forced into a non-physicalist stance about the contents of the world? I'm back at CTY. Imply that we ought to reject the physicalist picture of the world. Let me try and show how I think these two statements can be reconciled. On the standard interpretation, we're now presented with two horns of a dilemma: we're either forced to say that no, Mary has learned nothi...

Reality Apologetics: March 2011
http://re-ap.blogspot.com/2011_03_01_archive.html
Friday, March 4, 2011. I had the honor of speaking at the United Nations/United Nations International School global issues conference today. They held it in the UN General Assembly chamber (wow! And I got to share the stage with such wizardly people as Clay Shirky. It was a tremendous amount of fun. If you're interested in seeing me- my talk was called "Building a Great Community from Terrible People (Or: How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love 4Chan)"- then the direct link is here.

Reality Apologetics: Bertrand Russell: Leaping Tall Proofs in a Single Bound Variable
http://re-ap.blogspot.com/2009/09/bertrand-russell-comic-book-hero.html
Thursday, September 3, 2009. Bertrand Russell: Leaping Tall Proofs in a Single Bound Variable. I read the titular essay right then and there and, after buying the book, soon devoured the rest of them. Russell's clear, lucid, humorous prose expressed all the doubts I'd been unable to put into words (and then some! And exposed me to serious philosophy for the first time. I was hooked, and before long I was plowing through Wittgenstein's Philosophical Investigations. Are publishing a graphic novel. And if i...

Sunday, August 9, 2009. Quicklink: Ben Bradley and Roy Sorensen on Death. 2) at all- they seem so obviously false to me that I have a hard time fathoming how anyone could hold them. Still, apparently this issue is non-controversial; I've got a paper floating around in my head attacking (1) and (2), but until it manifests (maybe later this semester? Links to this post.

Reality Apologetics: On the Future of Philosophy and Science
http://re-ap.blogspot.com/2010/06/on-future-of-philosophy-and-science.html
Monday, June 7, 2010. On the Future of Philosophy and Science. The same thing as saying that philosophy is dead or dying, though- it just needs to undergo the same kind of shift that other sciences have had to go through as they've entered the modern era. Philosophy needs to be incorporated into the unified structure of science generally. What does the work these people are doing have in common in virtue of which it is philosophical? Line rather than a topical. Have an important place in science. The...

Reality Apologetics: April 2011

Tuesday, April 19, 2011. Born to the Metaverse: Scream 4 and the Future of Pop Culture. This is gonna contain some spoilers. Sorry, but it will. I'll try to flag the major ones, but if you really want to be surprised, you should probably stop reading right now. There's really no reason for that, though, because. Is one of the first definitive digital-native generation pieces. Here's why. At least, beat it by a few years), but it certainly. The first major movie to do it so explicitly: the characters in.

Reality Apologetics: Quicklink: How a Computer Works
http://re-ap.blogspot.com/2008/12/quicklink-how-computer-works.html
Thursday, December 25, 2008. Quicklink: How a Computer Works. BoingBoing recently featured scans. Of a wonderful 1978 book called How a Computer Works. 160;It's so full of awesome, it's a wonder it doesn't explode; there's even some implicit philosophy! 160;It seems almost too amazing to be real, but it's entertaining either way. Snip:. In fact, computers do not have brains like we do. They cannot really think for themselves, except when they are doing complicated arithmetic. View my complete profile.

Reality Apologetics: Quicklink: Dennett and Clark Smack Substance Dualists Down
http://re-ap.blogspot.com/2008/12/quicklink-dennet-and-clark-smack.html
Saturday, December 13, 2008. Quicklink: Dennett and Clark Smack Substance Dualists Down. New Scientist recently ran a very short piece. In which Dennett and Clark respond to accusations that any talk about mind influencing body (e.g. as when a deliberate shift in attention causes a change in brain states) implies an acceptance of some kind of immaterial soul / Cartesian ego. The rejoinder they offer is short, to the point, and (it seems to be) decisive. Snip:. If you havent, you should read Tyler Burge...
