David Deutsch's work has been incredibly influential for me. I'm still reading these same books after two years, trying to absorb them into my worldview and I learn something new from them every day. There are a lot of sacred dogmas and shibilets that you're skeering. Sometimes you do it in passing with a single sentence that takes me weeks to unpack properly. This recording is not for the philosophers, and it's not for the physicists. And we want to introduce them to the principles of optimism, the beginning of infinity, what sustainability really means about anthropomorphic delusions.
