there's nothing in the least bit thought provoking about it because it have any substance only claims (vague allusion to "memes" and undefined "Predictive Processing"). i wonder why that is? might it be because GP admits they aren't actually expert enough to substantiate any of the claims?
and that's my point. i see claims all the time from people not entitled to make claims. i see substance very rarely. why? because claims are easy.
- s1artibartfast 6y agoEvery human being is entitled to make claims. Some claims have more merit and some have less. You can choose to engage or not based on the merit of their argument.

- jotm 6y agoThat leads nowhere. Everyone's sharing their opinions, the only solutions are to limit their freedoms or stop reading what they write.
- s1artibartfast 6y agoI guess I’m not clear what you are looking to achieve. Were you hoping the op would stop providing amateur opinions online?
- afarrell 6y ago> humility This is an important value. Please re-read my phrasing: - "I'd naively think" - "I don't see" - "I am skeptical" I am using words of uncertainty and lack-of-knowledge. The only claim I make with a certainty is "I have found <link> useful for addressing <personal experience>".
