Fundamentally, the thing I offer you is respect, the more effective pursuit of truth, and a chance to help our species not go extinct, all of which I imagine you want (or think you want) because out of all the places on the Internet you are here. If I'm wrong and you do NOT want respect, truth, and a slightly increased chance of long term survival, please let me know! One of my real puzzles here is that I find it hard to impute a coherent, effective, transparent, and egosyntonic set of goals to you here and now. Personally, I'd be selfishly just as happy if, instead of writing all new material, you just stopped posting and commenting here, and stopped sending "public letters" to MIRI (an organization I've donated to because I think they have limited resources and are doing good work). I don't dislike books in general. I don't dislike commercialism in general. I dislike your drama, and your shallow citation filled posts showing up in this particular venue. Basically I think you are sort of polluting this space with low quality communication acts, and that is probably my central beef with you here and now. There's lots of ways to fix this... you writing better stuff... you writing less stuff that is full of abstractions that ground themselves only in links to your own vanity website or specific (probably low value) books... you just leaving... etc... If you want to then you can rewrite all new material that is actually relevant and good, to accomplish your own goals more effectively, but I probably won't read it if it is not in one of the few streams of push media I allow into my reading queue (like this website). At this point it seems your primary claim (about having a useful research angle involving problems of induction) is off the table. I think in a conversation about that I would be teaching and you'd be learning, and I don't have much more time to teach you things about induction over and beyond the keywords and links to reputable third parties that I'v
