November 03, 2025 Rationality: From AI to Zombies
Focusing on the nature and practice of effective thinking. The author discusses various cognitive biases and logical fallacies, such as the planning fallacy and the fallacy of the excluded middle, emphasizing the contrast between "Traditional Rationality" and the more rigorous, probabilistic approach of Bayesian reasoning. Core themes include the importance of epistemic and instrumental rationality, the difficulty of overcoming self-deception and motivated reasoning, and the need for reductionism to avoid "mysterious answers to mysterious questions" like "emergence." Ultimately, the text advocates for binding one's emotions and beliefs to reality and cultivating a genuine curiosity about the world to improve decision-making and truth-seeking.

Explores the intersection of ancient myths, magical beliefs, and modern science.

October 31, 2025 Paradise Regained
Details the temptation of Jesus by Satan in the wilderness. The narrative begins after Jesus's baptism, with Satan convening his demonic council to plot how to undermine the Son of God. The text then presents Jesus's internal reflections on his divine purpose and past, followed by the first two temptations offered by Satan: transforming stones into bread to satisfy hunger, and seeking worldly wealth and power instead of a spiritual kingdom. Jesus refutes both with scripture and wisdom, asserting that true kingship lies in self-mastery and guidance by divine truth, not earthly possessions or influence. The excerpt concludes with Satan, increasingly frustrated, escalating his attempts by offering Jesus the kingdoms of the world and their glory, followed by an offer of Greek philosophy and knowledge, all of which Jesus rejects, culminating in Satan placing Jesus on a pinnacle of the Temple, daring him to leap, which Jesus again refuses, causing Satan to fall in defeat.
