But maybe also more meaningful

Good morning Claude.  What are your perspectives and criticisms regarding Rauch's latest book: "Constitution of Knowledge: In Defense of Truth?" Good morning, Sciart. What I find valuable: Rauch articulates something important—that liberal epistemology functions as a kind of operating system requiring shared commitments: No final say (fallibilism), no personal authority (claims must survive public challenge), and no special dispensations. His framing of "reality-based communi

A study reveals our brain development changes at ages 9, 32, 66 and 83

Open-ended learning environments (OELEs) are educational settings that encourage students to explore, experiment, and construct their own understanding of STEM concepts. While OELEs can increase engagement and deepen learning, they can be challenging for novice learners who may lack the self-regulated learning (SRL) skills needed to manage their own learning effectively. Recent research highlights the importance of students’ emotions (affective states) and thinking processes

As technology advanced and the scope for observation expanded,

By tracking brain activity as primates move freely in the wild, neuroethology could reshape what we think we know about our own minds. Excerpt: "If asked to describe what sets a cognitively complex species like humans apart from others, many would list specific behaviors, such as telling stories, creating art, planning for the future, or navigating complex social structures. Given that, you might expect that neuroscientists attempting to understand the advanced brain would s

DM Good day Claude. Today I would seek to (feebly) share my on-going Fitness=Truth™ thinking regarding Pantakinesis™ , The Universal Holophren™ and my conjecture of an apparently continuous Pantakinetic creation in the "Realm of the Present-Now™ (RPN), for your commentary (of, and beyond, our related past conversations; ...and please no sycophancy, nor anemic dichotomies!): 1) Pantakinesis, by definition, would (seem to be) without or beyond any imaginable shape or boundaries

I traveled to Sommarøy to find out whether a town really can live free from the clock. Excerpt: "Time-management styles do seem to influence how people experience the world. In Avnet and Sellier’s studies, at least, clock-timers were more likely to believe that events are steered by fate, not by intention. They are also worse at distinguishing between events that are causally linked and events that are unrelated. Those who follow event time are more likely to say that what h
