The beginning of infinity is not an easy book to read to some level Deutsch could not but right for other physicists, he has a certain peer group that he respects and who respect him and he has to meet them at their level. So he has to write for other physicists and philosophers part of what I wanted to do was I wanted to understand these principles in the book verify confirm them from myself or not. I love the old model from the Royal Society which says nullius in verba, which says take no one's word for it. In other words figure it out yourself. That's the
the only way you know anything so I wanted to confirm the principles in the beginning of infinity or to refute them for myself. So to do that I was reading and rereading the book. I started reading some blog posts on it. And then eventually I found a guy online named Brett Hall and I started listening to his podcast which was called Tock cast but t Okay cast for the theory of knowledge cast and Brett. I'm going to let you introduce yourself, but I would say that listening to your podcast has helped me clarify a lot of these principles and
I would love to have you talk with me so that we can both understand the depth the clarity the reach the importance of these ideas and then hopefully someone else out there can become smarter by it
how long the vowel and it's great to be here. You've right so many interesting aspects of the beginning Infinity which has become a real passion of mine like many people who enter into science when I was at school. I thought well, I want to be an astronomer when I enter University. I want to go and do a Physics degree to an astronomy.
Agree, and then become a professional astronomer, it wasn't until one day. I was in a bookstore and I found this book called the fabric of Reality by David Deutsch and I started reading it and the first chapter described what I was trying to achieve in my life. It was putting into words what I felt my university studies what my general outlook on life was about because David Deutsch says, they're the ancient philosophers thought that they could get an understanding.
Have the entire world and then later on As Time passed modern science made it seem as though this was an Impossible Project. There's no way you could understand everything about reality. There's too much to know. How could you possibly know everything?
