Jiro Lammo Costaldo: There's something to be said for the drunk guy looking for his keys under the lamp post. He says ADSCFT is not the real world but it is a model that we understand much better than any model that does approximate the real world. "It's kind of sad that you can get as far as you can and make a whole career without making much contact with the real world"

Welcome to the August 2023 Ask Me Anything episode of Mindscape! These monthly excursions are funded by Patreon supporters (who are also the ones asking the questions). We take questions asked by Patreons, whittle them down to a more manageable number -- based primarily on whether I have anything interesting to say about them, not whether the questions themselves are good -- and sometimes group them together if they are about a similar topic. Enjoy!
