Episode notes

Ntrop plays a big role in information theory, but i don't quite understand why that is. I'm not worried about that loophole actually being exploited in nature. There's a whole bunch of good questions in the philosophy of math. It answers this question of principle that many people weren't worried about, but i think they shoud av been worried about. So yet, goglet, it's out there.

Welcome to the October 2021 Ask Me Anything episode of Mindscape! These monthly excursions are funded by Patreon supporters (who are also the ones asking the questions). I take the large number of questions asked by Patreons, whittle them down to a more manageable size — 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!
