I am following your blog for a while, and find it extremely entertaining and also informative.

However, some criticism:

1. You obviously suffer from what Nassim Taleb calls “ludic fallacy”. That is, applying “perfect” mathematical and logical reasoning to a highly “imperfect” world. A more direct definition would be “linear wishful thinking” in an extremely complex, non-linear environment.

2. It is admirable that one can afford to indulge in such conversations, as you do. However, bear in mind that the very notion of self you imply in your post is very, very questionable (Talking about the presentation of self in everyday life, Erving Goffman once said: “when the individual is in the immediate presence of others, his activity will have a promissory character.” Do you, somehow, recognize yourself? ;) ).

3. Being humble is so difficult when one is young and extremely intelligent. However, bear in mind that in the long run, what matters is not who will rule the world, or even whether one will get the Nobel Prize. What matters is the human condition. Bearing this in mind will not hamper your scientific efforts, but will provide you with much more ambiguity – the right fertilizer for wisdom.
