    Great talk. A bit easier to take it all in at 0.75 speed though

    Long rolling waves of time bring all things to light and plunge then down again in utter darkness. There is nothing that cannot happen.

    OK. I really like this guy. He's bringing together, ideas I've been struggling with since college in a way I never could. In my senior I wrote a thesis on something I called a "Realistic Idealism." We are separated and not separated from the world at the same time. Lately, I've been working on something, I called computational philosophy (just bring concepts and concrete examples from programming and computer science to illuminate ideas and problems in philosophy. So an object-oriented ontology, is very much in line with this thing.

    7:26 Finitude is inevitable. Because objects are computationally irreducible.
    Or rather any reduction of the object (in either direction) is not the object.
    Only the object is the object and anything else is a translation.
    We can reduce up (less information, more order) or reduce down (more information, less order).

    After hearing this , I need a prominent dose of SDP (Subject Disoriented Programming), the style of 'in which package am I right now? 'do you know the message bus to to the south', and so,. (I mean since Simon and Garfunkel were great precursors of OOCobol). Good night

    How many angels on the head of a pin? And why would that be important to a gold miner slaving away 3,000m underground to make a billionaire richer? I thought this was going to be about symbols instead of speculation about whether or why we have symbols and if they relate to our reality instead of non-reality.

    Beg to differ object oriented ontology is indeed a factually distortionate existence of statist ephemera in dynamic cycling such as to have objective and unfortunate illusory gestalt of real existence in by at its ai through for which the statistics have to be made massively usables of in order to existentially give it a real reification the logic circuits affect humans by inhumane logics.

      The illusion of a teleologically structured ontology is supposedly shattered by the enlightenment and yet is replaced with a new, more teleologically structured ontology characterized by straight lines and sharp angles rather than the emergent course of things exemplified by natural forms. Now, who defines the telos? The nightmare is that it is the cynical, nihilistic Last Man who now steers the vehicle.
