Into The Impossible

A conversation from the vault, back in Spring 2022. As relevant as ever, hear Eric's thoughts on sundry topics such as: The twin nuclei and the unleashing of great power Harry Truman vs Kamala Harris. The problems with our leadership. Distinguishing between "complicated" and "complex". Keating's pedagogy. What happened on September 12th, 2001? Are we in a death spiral? The acceleration of science and the role of engineering. What new fundamental theories should we focus on? Do a few people wield too much power? Games countries and the ultrawealthy play, and how to prevent the collapse of civilization. The argument for academic freedom. Questions from The Metaphoric Mind: Can the sacred, intuitive, and rationale co-exist? How can a new scientific paradigm be encouraged to emerge? What is the key datum you would need to pick the best-unified theory? Eric's current views on bitcoin and crypto. Connect with me:
