Really big distinction between presidential sites where they Absolutely Love their president (Nixon, Reagan, Coolidge, Washington) and sites where they're, frankly, pretty waffly on the guy (Jefferson, mainly.)
Schrödinger’s search for unity did not end with physics. His philosophical writings returned repeatedly to a deeper question: if consciousness is always experienced as a singular “I,” why do we believe that reality contains a multitude of separate minds?
In the epilogue to What Is Life?, he invoked the Upanishadic identity of Ātman and Brahman, the individual self and the universal ground of existence.
In Mind and Matter, he described the tension between many conscious observers and one shared world as the “arithmetical paradox.” His answer was that consciousness is fundamentally one, while its apparent division among individuals is an illusion of multiplicity.
This was not a conclusion derived from the Schrödinger equation. It was a metaphysical position shaped strongly by Advaita Vedānta and the Upanishads, alongside his engagement with Schopenhauer, Spinoza, and Western mystical traditions.
Its significance is not that ancient philosophy somehow predicted quantum mechanics. It is that one of quantum theory’s founders allowed Indian and Western thought to meet around one of philosophy’s oldest questions: whether separateness belongs to reality itself, or only to the way reality appears to us.
El "Fibring" es una técnica muy reciente que permite a varias lógicas tejerse entre sí, preservando el mayor número posible de propiedades deseables. Por ejemplo unir dos lógicas L' y L'' para obtener una lógica combinada. Hay 3 tipos:
1. Semántico
2. Funciones
3. Algebraico
A strain of retardation so bad that I can't help but hail the Anglo Analyticians that diminished the funding of continental philosophy in university departments
At long last, Cronyism: Rise of the Corporatist State, 1849-1929 is finally OUT!
Cronyism (part deux) threads together the myriad big businesses that sought to capture government for their own benefit and created the corporatist state in the US. From railroad magnates to Wall Street titans, from the origins of the FDA to the founding of the Fed, the book covers special-interest policies from the advent of the Civil War to the eve of the Great Depression.
I am deeply honored that Nobel Laureate Thomas J. Sargent wrote the foreword, wherein he lauds the discipline of economic history, Rothbard’s contributions to the field, and Cronyism-the-series’ place in that important tradition.
