Bart Vanderhaegen Elon Musk Yes, I am an Everettian. The Many-Worlds Interpretation elegantly adheres to quantum mechanics' mathematics without ad-hoc collapses, resolving paradoxes like measurement while embracing wave function universality. It's the most coherent view, despite its ontological boldness.

About goal setting: No rule can exist that says - goals "close to you" (in the moment, today, ...) are the most important ones to set - OR goals "far away from you" (your life's destination, ultimate dream or ambition, ...) are the most important ones to set Goals emerge in

"Ideas ought to be challenged, if only to see how beautifully they can answer criticisms." ~Conjecture Institute Fellow Sam

New episode with Bart Vanderhaegen! Bart explains his Problem based management method, built on Critical Rationalism. We cover how organizations can support knowledge creation and avoid the common traps of defending ideas instead of improving them: youtu.be/ZlCxULjnCyE?si…

Thank you Edwin for having me on !

The woven web of epistemology widens. Bart Vanderhaegen applies the ideas of Popper and Deutsch to some interesting cases:

Het is ongelooflijk dat we in de economische wetenschappen zoiets hebben als de "Oostenrijkse school", de enige die niet alleen (!) op modellen is gebaseerd maar vooral op de realiteit, en dat die "school" vervolgens quasi compleet genegeerd wordt aan Europese universiteiten.

Reading Kotkin about the soviet is realizing how they really did try being socialist. They did centrally plan the economy and it failed. We understand why it should have failed due to the impossibility of economic calculation. I don't get why I wasn't simply told this when

If only advocates of shut-up-&-calculate interpretations of quantum theory would do so! What they really do is talk nonsense and calculate.
