I teach math and philosophy at a school for the profoundly gifted. Liberal egalitarian, civil libertarian, anti-authoritarian, inveterate contrarian.

This website sucks now, and I am going to delete my account soon. If you'd like to stay in contact, please shoot me a message and/or send me a Facebook friend request. If I don't know you IRL, a message would be both welcome and helpful.

[James Bondarchuk @JamesBondarchuk]

Yes.

Genuine question..
Did Immanuel kant effect any of you guys to become a better person?

@wrdcsc @morallawwithin This looks very interesting. For the record, I was just joking.

I like how Paul Thomas Anderson is a regular dude and not some precious little aesthete. He's a grounded person who is also an exceptionally talented artist. I wish that were the norm. He's married to Maya Rudolph, and you just know that she's not going to put up with bullshit.

My hot take on people being concerned that Walz’s anti-Yale rhetoric will discourage lower middle class and poor students from pursuing admission to the Ivies: No it won’t.

@victorckumar I wonder about other claims of this form. "Anyone who buys a phone made with child slave labor is thereby not a decent person." Etc.

[James Bondarchuk @JamesBondarchuk]

@victorckumar Is your view that anyone that serially commits the same moral error is thereby not a decent person? Or is the proposition that meat eating is a particularly egregious moral error bearing some of the load?

@JVMonte2 Type O Negative. I had tickets but pre-gamed too hard and never made it. I am still mad at myself for that. R.I.P. Peter Steele.

Unsolicited advice for people entering a PhD program in philosophy this fall:

Maintain your nonacademic interests. If you don’t have any, develop some.

The finding that Tyler Cowen describes as "not extremely positive" for #BasicIncome is that people who received $1,000 per month worked 1.3-1.4 hours less per week.
So, the downside of ending poverty is that people might take an extra long lunch break.
