New paper forthcoming in Nous by Dan Harris (@danielwharris.bsky.social) and myself! Check it out!
I think there is something useful here for people working on all sorts of topics in philosophy and elsewhere, and we plan to expand further on this ourselves in future work.
... pretty trivial stuff, really...
Are you an academic looking to relocate? Consider the Global Talent Ireland Scheme (expression of interest needed soon) - bonus: you get to find out whether you are a "Rising Star" or a "Research Leader" www.researchireland.ie/funding/glob... #philjobs
Right, I work in both of these countries and have organised many events in both for a number of years. I'm starting to think I should create some kind of organisation... no... more work? that's just crazy :D
That's a really interesting suggestion. Ireland might also be a useful outpost for this kind of thing?
Books, songs, mountains (been to the top vs wanting to go), paintings. Can this apply to almost anything or am I just not getting it?
"How can we help you do what you need to to, according to some grant application, without having to spend a month of your life writing the application?"
Universities need Anti-Application Offices, with people who try to convince us not to apply for things, so we can focus on teaching and research, which is what they are paying us to do anyway.
I was joking of course, but what I had in mind was that the conclusion is something like: the principle does not apply to him.
Easy to fix this argument, probably just a typo. It should say "But Mr. Trump isn't a man," and the implied conclusion follows.
Mind and Language published an exchange between Rachel Goodman and me. I learned a lot from doing this and Rachel's comments are great. Not so sure about my attempted responses, but maybe the distinction between identity and 'fregentity' will catch on? onlinelibrary.wiley.com/toc/14680017...
If you don't click 'like' or 'recommend' on your own paper on PhilPapers I assume that you don't think it's good and that no one should read it. You've had many opportunities to like the paper, but you choose not to...
Pushing the stone of reviewing for journals up the mountain always makes me wonder when and how I will die.
'Pamela' by TOTO (1988) is not as good as 'Pamela' by the Icelandic band Dúkkulísurnar (1984). Check it out. But you can now also read my responses to comments on my book, forthcoming in an Inquiry special issue. I'm really grateful to Mark, Jessica, and Eliot for their amazing contributions!
I'm hiring a two-year postdoc in philosophy of language and mind, based at the University of Iceland. The postdoc will also be a Visiting Scholar at University College Dublin. Based on a grant Dan Harris and I received: philjobs.org/job/show/25898
The Pensions Office just responded to an email I sent exactly two years ago. Even sillier, some payment I owe gathered compound interest in the meantime.
