Exploring the impact of transitioning to a fiat standard and the distortions in sectors like education, nutrition, energy, science, and medicine. The spread and impact of DEI and ESG mandates, and tactics used to silence dissent. The influence of anti-rational memes and the role of hard money standard in promoting rational ideas and suppressing criticism.

Introduction to Constructor Theory, exploring its applications in biology, abstract things, and unpredictability. Advancements in physics challenging Newtonian mechanics and introducing general relativity. Possibility of life within the laws of physics and the role of genes. Constructor Theory of Information and its relation to quantum information and quantum gravity theories.

The podcast discusses the universal applicability of Darwin's theory of evolution and its contrast with the limited scope of Austrian Economics. It also explores the inconsistent adoption of economic principles by politicians and classical liberals, and the dismissal of economic lessons by national conservatives.

I speak with physicist David Deutsch about the universal constructor, a machine that can be programmed to cause any physically possible transformation.   Note-this interview was recorded in early 2022. In the time since this interview was recorded, David has stated that disobedience is by far the primary reason that humans and human societies aren't universal constructors.  David Deutsch's website - https://www.daviddeutsch.org.uk/.

This is my interview with David Deutsch, Visiting Professor of physics at the Centre for Quantum Computation, the Clarendon Laboratory, Oxford University and an Honorary Fellow of Wolfson College, Oxford. We discuss the constructor theory of information, some of its conjectured principles, the unification of classical and quantum information, and more.    Constructor Theory of Information paper - https://arxiv.org/ftp/arxiv/papers/1405/1405.5563.pdf --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/logan-chipkin/support

This is my interview with Sam Kuypers, a DPhil student at Oxford University. We discuss the problems with quantum field theory, how qubit field theory seems to solve some of these problems, and how constructor theory might aid the development of qubit field theory.

This is my interview with Vlatko Vedral, a professor of quantum information science at Oxford University. We discuss the difference between dynamical laws and principles in physics, the role that the principles of constructor theory play in discovering new dynamical laws, the constructor theory of information,  his research (in collaboration with Chiara Marletto) into probing hybrid systems in which quantum mechanical objects interact with gravity, and more.
