🆕 Introduction page for Part I of my meta-rationality book. This Part explains how rationalism—the theory that formal rationality can be fully adequate—fails when it encounters nebulosity. meaningness.com/eggplant/ratio…

🆕 Introduction to Part II of my meta-rationality book, on “mere reasonableness.” I’m posting these now partly to give structure to pages I’m going to post over the next couple of days.

Parts I and II of the book are finished. I’m really torn about whether to web-publish all of their contents, given that I don’t know when I’ll have time to write the rest. In the meantime, I’ve occasionally posted bits out of context when relevant to public discussions.

Reads very smoothly. I like the distinction between practicality and philosophy, and am curious how the “it’s impractical” will fare compared to “it’s true in principle”. Don’t both rely on relevance realization in order to make a judgment call / keep it finite?

I’m not sure what “both” referred to here? But yes, relevance realization is highly relevant here. A couple months ago I posted two chapters of the Part specifically about that, intending to cite them in my dialog with @vervaeke_john, but forgot to. meaningness.com/eggplant/ratio…

Thanks! I stole that bit from Phil Agre, pretty much; see footnote 2.

Then you’d love my theological chapter, “Rationalism of the Enigma.” It makes an epistemic ground of the paradox. Wild times for all involved.
