I found the 'worm' of time and space view in the article that is not preserved by recreation to be irritating and naive. Go to sleep on a plane and you are effectively transported to a new place 'disconnected' from where you were. It doesn't cause confusion or entirely new beings to come into existence that would be confusing to the "old you". Whether these kind of people like this pretty distinguished author likes it or not, there will be scanning, uploads, and eventually entire worlds where people live. The world of Reamde and "Fall, or Dodge in Hell" look like the extremely obvious and likely future world. These heavy philosophical pieces are also extremely unpersuasive. They come across like something from a bizarre academic world that is disconnected from what is likely in reality. And I'm an academic (but in cs, not this stuff).
