carpe the diem, people
I hate the framing “what will AI do” to XYZ. Conveniently hides *who* is benefitting and who is bearing the consequences

Genuinely idiotic thing to believe. It is a sacrifice of one’s dignity as a moral agent to obey *anyone* without justification. At that point, you’re in the egalitarian realm of reasons, validity, and legitimate expertise

citation inflation must be stopped. You shouldn’t feel the need to cite the newest and “best” at every turn. Dive into the primary sources and make stuff up. Creative misreadings are often the most generative

AO Hirschman showed this “perversity“ has not changed in 200 years, especially among some Catholics. Unfortunately there’s a market for this recycled slop

vague, un-falsifiable, and asymmetric motion. But the real issue is the lack of Hegelian representation to argue that the state is the march of God in history.

finished a good book on US secularism. Near the end tho he brought up the (correct) point that postliberals left and right liked Taylor’s Secular Age for different reasons. But he made Taylor sound more reactionary than I remember. I thought it was more Taylor reception than the actual text
