If 'simplicity' is deemed and correspondingly revered as an explanatory virtue then why are the so called 'Experts' (of different fields) are almost always expected to deliver complex litanies to elucidate explananda? #Philosophy #virtue #explanation
I just LOVE this:
For my quick access
New position paper on illusionism just finished. It will appear in a special issue of the French open-access journal Klesis, edited by @francoisloth.
Will be talking about tips on academic writing, including some lesser known ones, for the philosophy grad student association this Friday. 1. When to write? Definitely not every day. Not even highly successful writers do that (see this paper) 1/ tandfonline.com/doi/abs/10.108…
Except it's a not a real Nobel Prize, it's just a prize established in 1968 by the Swedish Central Bank 'in memory of Alfred Nobel.' We philosophers should just pretend there's a Nobel Prize for philosophy, just like the economists have.

in person, sydney's brain often seemed to run slower than many other philosophers. that sometimes gave you the false impression that you were ahead in an argument, before later realizing you weren't. that taught me a lesson worth learning about speed and philosophical power.

all of the physicalists I know are trying to convincing me that I'm a dualist and the non-physicalists are trying to convince me that I'm an illusionist but I just believe in the reality of consciousness, whatever it is
Exactly

Today's epiphany!! The Closet Paradox: By hypothesis, if a person is closeted, it's logically legit to refer to them as 'Closeted' (same as saying X is X), but the moment one's termed 'Closeted' they cease to be so, as it brings them out of the closet!!! #philosophy #paradox
If anyone got to ask this question about Qualia, probably they never understood the very concern of the 'Qualia-freak'!!! The development in physiology enabled us to point at different internal organs while talking about related phenomena but phenomenal domain is barely explored

Idealism is often seen as entailing that the world exists just in our heads, which is obviously false. Rising philosophical star Jeremy Dunham argues that this view of idealism is a misconception. Idealism is a much more realist worldview than we think. essentiafoundation.org/thoughts-are-m…

Could there be a clearer refutation of illusionism?
Goffy's catching me up! Come on, team illusionism!
@BayouPhilosophy there's nothing wrong with being silly!
@keithfrankish Would you say that physicalism is a metaphysical thesis?
If a question can (in principle) be settled empirically, does that mean it is not a metaphysical question?
Mang🥭 season is BACK! What is your favorite variety of #mango?

@balazskegl @danieldennett @keithfrankish The illusionist position does make more sense when framed like this. keithfrankish.com/blog/like-a-ra…
Intelligence is defined by your willingness to learn, solve problems and try new things, not by your grades.
It's debateable what follows from the fine-tuning of physics for life. But the basic data that, on our current theories, for life to be possible, certain constants had to fall in a certain narrow range, is not controversial at all. Which physicists deny it?
@Philip_Goff I don’t think this is true. There seems to be legitimate disagreement on this. Many physicists and cosmologists seem to dispute this.
Intelligence isn't the ability to remember and repeat, like they teach you in school. It is the ability to learn from experience, solve problems, and use our knowledge to adapt to new situations.

read the paper to see why that's too simplistic
