(00:00:00) The Atheist Experience 29.21 with Secular Rarity and Scott Dickie 2025-05-25 (00:10:43) Hannah - MS | Materialism And Physicalism (00:43:43) Watcher 215 - PA | Love Is The Fruit Of The Holy Spirit (01:03:18) Paul - AZ | Foundherentism And Munchhausen's Trilemma (01:25:50) James - (CA) | Proof Of Evolution? (01:45:04) Ulrich - (MX) | Church Is Evidence For God Hannah calls in from Mississippi to talk about materialism and physicalism. The hosts say that they mostly subscribe to methodological and practical materialism. Hannah argues that the hard problem of consciousness undermines materialism. She says that materialism denies the existence of consciousness as a nonmaterial thing. The hosts point out that it's only a problem if you presuppose that consciousness is immaterial. Hannah believes that consciousness is immaterial because you can't observe consciousness. She shifts the burden of proof by saying that she would need to see a falsifiable experiment that shows the material nature of consciousness. It isn't our responsibility to prove a counterexample to a claim without evidence.Watcher 215 from Pennsylvania calls in to talk about his relationship with the holy spirit as evidence for god. The hosts explain that believers in other religions use the same evidence as proof of their gods, so it isn't convincing. Watcher says that if other people got the same benefits as him from other religions, he would have to seriously investigate those religions. What if people also get the same experience from leaving religion? If you want people to believe in a specific god, you need to narrow down the evidence to show that religion/god is the correct one. Watcher uses circular reasoning and says that he knows that love is the fruit of the holy spirit, and he knows that by believing the word of the bible. Paul from Arizona calls to talk about the hosts' ground for knowledge. What is the ontology behind the hosts epistemology for the grounding of knowledge about their atheist worldview? Paul and the hosts discuss Foundherentism (a blending of coherentism and foundationalism), Munchhausen's trilemma, and theories about infinite regress. The hosts say that there can't be an infinite future without the possibility of an infinite past as well. Paul thinks that there needs to be a start to something, so there can't be an infinite past because it would eventually run into a starting point. But why does there need to be a start?James in Canada starts with the premise that all we know is that we are here and we don't know how we got here. The hosts can agree that they are here and it's not 100% known how we got here. James says that there is no proof, but the hosts can't totally agree to that. There is solid proof about evolution and the genetic code, etc. James points out that evolution is a theory and describes a theory as an idea that may be true but isn't proven. However, in scientific communities, it has a different meaning. A scientific theory is pretty much a fact. When asked, James says that you can't have evidence of god, but he also believes that we shouldn't believe evolution if there was no evidence for it. If we're held to that standard, why isn't religion as well?Ulrich from Mexico claims that the existence of churches proves that God is real. The bible says that there will be churches for God, so the fact that there are churches means the bible is true. He says that no other holy books have fulfilled prophecies. When asked for an example of a fulfilled biblical prophecy, he brings up a prophecy of Jews returning to Jerusalem before the end of days. Does he think the end times are happening right now? He says maybe. When arguing his case, Ulrich couldn't engage in an honest conversation, so he got hung up on.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-atheist-experience--3254896/support.

Adam and Curtis analyze a recent Foreign Affairs article, " Europe's Nuclear Trilemma," by Fabian Hoffmann and Mark Bell. Alongside reviewing the author's intriguing three options, Adam and Curtis discuss the unfounded fear of a US/NATO split, the economic and political contexts of U.S. defense spending, the significance of NATO contributions from European nations, and the challenges of nuclear deterrence in Europe. The conversation explores various strategies for European defense and the cultural attitudes towards military engagement, ultimately concluding with reflections on the future of NATO and the necessity for credible deterrence.Get Involved with more NIDS Services: https://thinkdeterrence.com/Deterrence Education at NIDS https://thinkdeterrence.com/deterrence-education/ Like and follow us –LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/thinkdeterrence X.com: https://x.com/thinkdeterrence YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCyGa4dcPqONWzjmbuZMOBHQ Rumble: https://rumble.com/user/NIDSthinkdeterrence Global Security Review: https://globalsecurityreview.com/ X.com: https://x.com/security_wonk Our Free Events: https://thinkdeterrence.com/events/

The European Union's energy landscape is transforming rapidly, as the bloc works to reduce emissions, lower energy prices, and decrease dependence on Russian fuel—three goals proving to be a challenge.  Though renewables now generate nearly half of Europe's electricity, significant challenges remain. Lengthy permitting processes are stalling the deployment of new clean generation and infrastructure and the continent requires improvements in energy system interconnections between countries. And questions remain about the role of certain forms of energy, like nuclear power and hydrogen, in Europe's future energy mix. So how is Europe addressing these competing priorities? And what do certain trade-offs mean for energy affordability, security, and economic competitiveness?  This week host Jason Bordoff talks with Dan Jørgensen, the new European commissioner for energy and housing.  Commissioner Jørgensen previously served as Danish minister for development cooperation and minister for global climate policy. He is a member of the Social Democratic Party of Denmark and was a member of the Danish parliament from 2015 to 2024.  Credits: Hosted by Jason Bordoff and Bill Loveless.

Every “trustworthy” AI system quietly betrays at least one sacred principle. Ethical AI forces brutal trade-offs: Prioritizing any one aspect among fairness, accuracy, and transparency compromises the others. It's a messy game of Jenga: pull one block (like fairness), and accuracy wobbles; stabilize transparency, and performance tumbles. But why can't you be fair, accurate, AND transparent? And is there a solution? The Trilemma in Action Imagine you try to create ethical hiring algorithms. Prioritize diversity and you might ghost the best candidates. Obsess over qualifications and historical biases sneak in like uninvited guests. Same with chatbots. Force explanations and they'll robot-splain every comma. Let them “think” freely? You'll get confident lies about Elvis running a B&B on a Mars colony. Why Regulators Won't Save Us Should we set up laws that dictate universal error thresholds or fairness metrics? Regulators wisely steer clear of rigid one-size-fits-all rules. Smart move. They acknowledge AI's messy reality where a 3% mistake margin might be catastrophic for autonomous surgery bots but trivial for movie recommendation engines. The Path Forward? Some companies now use “ethical debt” trackers, logging trade-offs as rigorously as technical debt. They document their compromises openly, like a chef publishing rejected recipe variations alongside their final dish. Truth is: the real AI dilemma is that no AI system maximizes fairness, accuracy, and transparency simultaneously. So, what could we imagine? Letting users pick their poison with trade-off menus: “Click here for maximum fairness (slower, dumber AI)” or “Turbo mode (minor discrimination included)”? Or how about launching bias bounties: pay hackers to hunt unfairness and turn ethics into an extreme sport? Obviously, it's complicated. The Bullet-Proof System Sorry, there's no bullet-proof system since value conflicts will always demand context-specific sacrifices. After all, ethics isn't about avoiding hard choices, it's about admitting we're all balancing on a tightrope—and inviting everyone to see the safety net we've woven below. Should We Hold Machines to Higher Standards Than Humans? Trustworthy AI isn't achieved through perfect systems, but through processes that make our compromises legible, contestable, and revisable. After all, humans aren't fair, accurate, and transparent either.

Data centers are pursuing a mixture of renewable energy, gas, and nuclear power to ensure they have a supply of sustainable, reliable and affordable power, in a microcosm of the energy trilemmaA 2,600-kilometer submarine HVDC line has been proposed to link New Zealand and Australia - with huge arbitrage potential across demand peaks over a 2-hour timezone distance.Europe's leadership has proposed a $100 billion clean manufacturing fund - is this enough to finally shore up domestic manufacturing in the face of China and the US' Inflation Reduction Act?

A difficult financial outlook has got even tougher for Rachel Reeves in recent days, so what is happening to the UK economy, and just how difficult will things get for the Chancellor with the next OBR forecast and the spending review looming? To take a deeper look at what is fuelling the current market turmoil, and ask whether things really are as bad as during the Liz Truss era, host Alain Tolhurst is joined by Dr Isabel Stockton, senior research economist at the Institute for Fiscal Studies, as well as the Labour MP and member of the Treasury select committee, Jeevun Sandher, and Cameron Brown, a former Treasury special adviser under the last Conservative government.

Traditional economics thinking has two strong principles, each based on abundant historical data: Principle (A): No “lump of labor”: If human population goes up, there might be some wage drop in the very short term, because the demand curve for labor slopes down. But in the longer term, people will find new productive things to do, such that human labor will retain high value. Indeed, if anything, the value of labor will go up, not down—for example, dense cities are engines of economic growth!Principle (B): “Experience curves”: If the demand for some product goes up, there might be some price increase in the very short term, because the supply curve slopes up. But in the longer term, people will ramp up manufacturing of that product to catch up with the demand. Indeed, if anything, the cost per unit will go down, not up, because of economies of [...] The original text contained 1 footnote which was omitted from this narration.

While sovereignty and sustainability are vital, competitiveness is essential to achieving both. Without competitiveness, taxpayer money could be wasted on lofty goals that fail to deliver results.

Special Guest Host Cale Clarke explores C.S. Lewis's powerful trilemma argument, considering whether Jesus could be a liar, lunatic, or Lord. He even expands this to account for the notion of Jesus as a legend. He also reflects on the prophetic themes in Aldous Huxley's "Brave New World" and its relevance today. The intersection of faith, history, and modern moral dilemmas makes for a fascinating discussion.   Mary - Kids can decide to have Trans surgeries but they can't walk to the store by themselves?

The Blockchain Trilemma is a key challenge in blockchain technology, aiming to achieve optimal decentralization, security, and scalability simultaneously. Each of these components is crucial for a robust blockchain network, yet balancing them remains complex. This series explores the intricacies of the trilemma and real-world applications addressing it. #### 1. Exploring the Blockchain Trilemma Components **Decentralization**: - **Definition**: Distributing control, decision-making, and validation across a network of nodes. - **Importance**: Ensures trust, transparency, censorship resistance, and fault tolerance. - **Challenges**: Achieving consensus can be slow and resource-intensive; network latency and complex governance can arise. **Security**: - **Definition**: The network's ability to resist attacks and unauthorized alterations. - **Importance**: Maintains data integrity, resilience to attacks, and user confidence. - **Challenges**: Requires significant computational resources, involves complex cryptographic techniques, and can impact scalability. **Scalability**: - **Definition**: The network's ability to handle an increasing number of transactions and nodes efficiently. - **Importance**: Supports transaction throughput, network growth, and cost efficiency. - **Challenges**: Balancing block size and speed, implementing Layer 2 solutions, and ensuring interoperability. #### 2. AI's Role in Solving the Blockchain Trilemma **Scalability**: - **AI-Driven Network Optimization**: AI algorithms predict congestion and reroute transactions to less congested nodes. - **Adaptive Sharding**: AI determines the optimal number of shards and adjusts sizes dynamically. - **Consensus Mechanism Enhancement**: AI predicts and mitigates bottlenecks in consensus mechanisms. **Security**: - **Anomaly Detection**: AI models detect real-time anomalies to prevent security threats. - **Smart Contract Verification**: AI uses formal verification and machine learning to detect vulnerabilities. - **Predictive Security Analytics**: AI analyzes historical data to predict future threats. **Decentralization**: - **Decentralized AI Governance**: Ensures fair voting and decision-making processes. - **Resource Allocation**: AI manages resource distribution to maintain decentralization. - **Incentive Mechanisms**: AI designs dynamic incentives to encourage diverse network participation. **Integrated Solutions and Case Studies**: - **Fetch.ai**: Combines AI and blockchain for autonomous economic agents. - **Harmony**: Uses AI to enhance sharding for efficient transaction processing. - **SingularityNET**: Leverages AI for a decentralized AI marketplace. #### 3. Real-World Applications and Case Studies Addressing the Blockchain Trilemma **Financial Services**: - **Decentralized Finance (DeFi)**: Platforms like Aave use Layer 2 solutions, smart contract audits, and DAO governance to enhance scalability, security, and decentralization. - **Cross-Border Payments**: Ripple (XRP) improves scalability with RippleNet, uses a secure consensus algorithm, and increases validator diversity for decentralization. **Supply Chain Management**: - **Transparent and Efficient Supply Chains**: VeChain uses Proof of Authority (PoA) for scalability, ensures data integrity for security, and involves reputable entities for decentralization. **Healthcare**: - **Secure and Interoperable Health Records**: Medicalchain uses off-chain storage for scalability, encryption and access control for security, and patient control for decentralization. **Energy Sector**: - **Peer-to-Peer Energy Trading**: Power Ledger supports high-volume microtransactions for scalability, secures transactions with smart contracts, and enables decentralized energy marketplaces. **Government and Public Sector**: - **Transparent Voting Systems**: Voatz uses blockchain-based voting for scalability, an immutable ledger for security, and a distributed voting infrastructure for decentralization.

"All the facts of science aren't enough to understand the world's meaning. For this, you must step outside the world." Welcome back to another episode of Made You Think! In this episode, we're adventuring into the world of Logicomix, a graphic novel that takes us on a journey through the intricate life of mathematician Bertrand Russell. From the quest for precision that borders on madness to the historical events Russell was embroiled in, we'll explore the complexities of logic, philosophy, and mathematics. We cover a wide range of topics including: Why seeking precision in understanding the world can drive one mad Bertrand Russell's historical involvements and achievements The rapid progress of aviation and technology How mathematics, logic, and philosophy remain connected Discovering the lives and contributions of various mathematicians And much more. Please enjoy, and make sure to follow Nat, Neil, and Adil on Twitter and share your thoughts on the episode.

(8:16) We give an overview of the book and how it shares different intricacies and stories from Bertrand Russell's life. From his parents being in a throuple to schizophrenia running in his family, we try to decipher which parts were real vs. fabricated. (10:36) Why you shouldn't necessarily look for precision and formal rules about how the world works. We tie this idea into Taoism which we've seen commonly in a few of our other recent reads. In short, no system can fully explain itself. You need to step outside of it. (13:42) Is it possible to build a perfect map of everything that mathematics entails? We talk about the connection between logic, philosophy, and mathematics.  (20:25) There were several mathematicians in the book. How many of them are you familiar with? (23:36) Russell's involvement in a variety of historical events from the Cuban Missile Crisis to JFK's assassination, as he was not convinced that Oswald was guilty of the crime.  (28:34) If you've been up-to-date with the news lately, you may be just as interested in the Kate Middleton conspiracies as we are. Tangent time! (31:38) Russell was sat in the House of Lords, a chamber of UK Parliament which is generally not up for election. Plus, we brainstorm some ideas of who would be considered Bertrand Russell's equivalent in the US. (36:48) We dive in to some different historical events and wars. The Ottoman Empire, World War 1 and 2, the Persian Gulf War, and how warfare and aircraft carriers changed during these ages.  (41:26) Aviation and its rapid improvements in technology in such a short span of time. (45:07) "Shouldn't we get back to the book?" Nat, Neil, and Adil discuss some of the main concepts from the book, including the pursuit of truth in the world of mathematics. You're never going to fully understand reality, but for some, that's a hard truth that they don't want to accept. (49:44) What does it mean to know, and how can you be justified in knowing something? Remember, a belief can be true while at the same time not satisfying the conditions of logic.  (56:05) Unlike the other mathematicians discussed in the book, Gödel constructed a proof to his theorem that hasn't yet been disproven. Regardless of whether their desires for absolute truth was achieved or not, a lot of the findings are fundamentally useful in many other ways.

Un chiaro indicatore del pessimo stato di salute dell'economia russa è l'inflazione al 7% (con un dato reale probabilmente superiore), che costringe la Banca centrale a tenere i tassi di interesse al 16%. Il rublo ha oscillato fra 50 e 100 rubli per dollaro in soli due anni, un tasso di cambio a tre cifre che non soltanto alimenta l'inflazione, ma suscita preoccupazione nell'opinione pubblica

The Trilemma of the Criterion is a philosophical problem that challenges how we can establish knowledge or truth. It suggests that when trying to determine what is true or justified, we face three main options, but each option comes with its own set of issues.

Bob Burnett is the Chairman and CEO of Barefoot Mining. In this interview, we discuss his transition from the PC industry to Bitcoin and his passion for Bitcoin mining. Bob explains the complexities of mining, its potential future and the role of fees in sustaining the industry. We also talk about the scarcity of block space in the Bitcoin network, the importance of the Lightning Network, the early years of Bitcoin and the public's current perception of Bitcoin. - - - - Bob Burnett shared his fascinating journey, from his work on developing one of the world's first laptop computers to his current involvement in the Bitcoin industry. Bob drew parallels between the personal computer and Bitcoin, emphasizing the role of technologists like Satoshi Nakamoto in pushing society forward and ushering in new eras, and the different motivations of technologists and capitalists. Bob initially designed Ethereum mining servers but eventually pivoted towards Bitcoin due to his dissatisfaction with Ethereum. He expressed his admiration for the technological brilliance of Bitcoin and the ongoing process of uncovering its layers. Bob shared his passion for Bitcoin mining, and his mission as a technologist and systems “guy” who wants to contribute to building a monetary system that will last for a thousand years. We discussed the intricacies of the Bitcoin mining industry. Bob explained the mining trilemma, i.e. the challenge of combining the three fundamental factors that need to come together to build a mining site: a consistent and competitive source of energy, mining equipment, and money. We also discussed the impact of changes to Bitcoin's price on the mining industry, the importance of collaboration, the need for diversity and the dangers of monopolies. The podcast delved into the scarcity of block space in the Bitcoin network and its implications. Current block space is limited and cannot accommodate everyone who wants to transact on the base layer. This poses a challenge for individuals who want to store their Bitcoin securely and be self-sovereign. We covered the importance of Lightning Network as a solution to allow more people to access and use Bitcoin. Finally, we reflected on the early years of Bitcoin and the upcoming changes in fees. We also talked about the perception of Bitcoin among those who are unfamiliar with it, and the challenge of bridging the gap between what people think about Bitcoin and the reality. However, in terms of the famous saying “show, don't tell”, it's the efforts of people like Bob, working to serve people around the world, that will go a long way to enlightening people on the value of Bitcoin. - Show notes: https://www.whatbitcoindid.com/podcast/the-bitcoin-mining-trilemma This episode's sponsors: Iris Energy - Bitcoin Mining.

Robert Lauko is the Founder and Head of Research at Liquity. Michael Svoboda is CEO at Liquity. In this episode, we dive into what we anticipate to be one of the most radical decentralized stablecoin upgrades–Liquity V2. Two years after launching what most of us regard as the most decentralized stablecoin in DeFi, LUSD, and having issued over $4.5b worth of interest free loans, it was recently announced at EthCC that Liquity is developing “an alternative product that aims to crack the stablecoin trilemma.” Although Liquity V2 is not scheduled to release until Q2-2024, Robert and Michael gave us a rare first look at some of the mechanics and features behind the upcoming Liquity V2 protocol. ------

  In this episode of the ESG Insider podcast, we explore challenges and potential solutions to the energy trilemma, which is the idea that the world needs to balance energy security, energy sustainability and energy affordability.   We bring you interviews from the sidelines of the Reuters Global Energy Transition conference in New York City, including with Greg Jackson, Founder and CEO of UK-based renewable electricity supplier Octopus Energy Group.   We speak with Joseph Vellone, Head of North America at ev.energy, which operates a cloud-based electric vehicle charging management platform. Joseph tells us how shifting the charging schedules of electric vehicles can help address the energy security component of the trilemma, specifically when it comes to maintaining grid reliability and enabling the use of more renewable generation.    We explore the challenges and solutions for adopting low-carbon hydrogen and carbon capture technologies with David Burns, Vice President of Clean Energy at Linde, a large industrial gas and engineering company. And we talk with Patrick Schultz, Executive Vice President of Development, Strategy and Innovation and Chief Growth Officer at Veolia North America. Veolia helps industrial and municipal customers around the world manage water, waste and energy.  Listen to our episode on low-carbon hydrogen here: https://www.spglobal.com/esg/podcasts/pulling-back-the-curtain-on-the-promise-of-low-carbon-hydrogen Photo source: Getty Images    Copyright ©2023 by S&P Global        DISCLAIMER         This piece was published by S&P Global Sustainable1, a part of S&P Global.        By accessing this Podcast, I acknowledge that S&P GLOBAL makes no warranty, guarantee, or representation as to the accuracy or sufficiency of the information featured in this Podcast.

As ESG's scope and penetration increased in 2022, so too did the decibels of debate. Surging inflation, the reverberations of the war in Ukraine, the energy crunch and global recessionary angst have called into question the value of ESG considerations, forcing policymakers to reconsider the rank of importance in the energy trilemma pillars – affordability, security and sustainability. Yet, we view louder deliberations and pockets of pushback as indicative of ESG's burgeoning relevance and a natural and necessary step in its maturation. Ehsan Khoman, Head of Commodities, ESG and Emerging Markets Research (EMEA), discusses MUFG's ESG 2023 outlook that was published earlier this week (see here for the full report).

Record inflation, another wake-up call out of Beijing, a new prime minister in the UK, overhang of supply chain shocks and massive fiscal and monetary stimulus from the pandemic, all against the backdrop of the Russia-Ukraine war, which shows no signs of abating. What are the economic implications of all this? What should Central Banks be doing? Dr. Mohamed El-Erian returns to the podcast. He is President of Queens' College at Cambridge University. Mohamed serves as part-time Chief Economic Advisor at Allianz and Chair of Gramercy Fund Management. He's a Professor at The Wharton School, he is a Financial Times contributing editor, Bloomberg Opinion columnist, and the author of two New York Times best sellers. He serves on several non-profit boards, including the NBER, and those of Barclays and Under Armour. From 2007-2014, Mohamed served as CEO/co-CIO of PIMCO. He worked at PIMCO for a total of fourteen years, and was chair of President Obama's Global Development Council. Mohamed also served two years as president and CEO of Harvard Management Company, the entity that manages Harvard's endowment. He has been chair of the Microsoft Investment Advisory Board since 2007.

Today, we read CCC, 561 - 594 and discuss some of the reasons why the Pharisees took issue with Jesus and his teachings. Jesus makes bold statements and does some outlandish things... What do you think? Was Jesus who he said he was - the Lord? Or was he a lunatic (someone who believed he was the Lord) or an incredible liar (someone who has deceived billions of people for centuries)? According to C.S. Lewis, these are your only three options!

Although it didn't originate with him, one of the arguments which C.S. Lewis is best known for is his "Trilemma". Who is Jesus? A good teacher or something else? Apologist Jimmy Akin walks us through the various options.
