In The Matrix, or a Physical World? @EverettsVLOG

[cnewq5]

we have at least sensual evidence of a physical world, but no evidnece at all of a matrix. if either could be the basis of our exixtence, why bother with a concept (like prerelativity ether) that serves no purpose?

if you are The One, can you fly?

Just keep on writing, keep on thinking, it'll sort itself out eventually.

Um dude just for the record, I don't think that was a ridiculous argument at all, I thought it was creativity of a very high order....

Ha, alright. Just keepin' ya honest...

If you have some sort of evidence, then it's possible to argue for something, sure (though this isn't induction unless you're projecting into the future based upon past experience). But in the case of Cartesian skepticism, as I argued in this video, we seem to have no such evidence.

the problem of induction is not just a past-to-future problem.

problem #1: not concerning the future, we already have some observations, let's say 1, 2, 3, 4. from these observations, we can't conclude a general truth about past or present. f(n)=n is only one among many equally likely explanations.

problem #2: let's say that problem #1 is not a problem, and we know that f(n)=n is true for the past and the present. we still don't know if this will continue to be true in the future.
