large part.
I started thinking about all the ways that Vedic and Taoist and Hermetic
thought has informed Western Science - almost totally without attribution — and
thought, "hey, why not find a nice graduate progra

Automation will displace humans at the exact rate that we define human as that
which a computer can do. If a computer cannot do it, then it is not a real
human ability.
My claim, as such, is more analogous to the argument that audiophiles advance
with regard digital sound. When you digitize you
Dave,
Thanks for this. And it goes very well most of the way, but there is one spot
where you persistently misunderstand me, and so I will go directly to that:

Nick,
Think of the statement that "there are things about which we cannot speak"
as a metastatement about the limitations of language. In mathematics we
can prove that there are theorems that we cannot prove in a system with
fewer axioms than in the metasystem.
