Introduction page for Part I of my meta-rationality book. This Part explains how rationalism—the theory that formal rationality can be fully adequate—fails when it encounters nebulosity.https://meaningness.com/eggplant/rationalism …

Replying to @Meaningness
Reads very smoothly. I like the distinction between practicality and philosophy, and am curious how the “it’s impractical” will fare compared to “it’s true in principle”. Don’t both rely on relevance realization in order to make a judgment call / keep it finite?

Replying to @buster
I’m not sure what “both” referred to here? But yes, relevance realization is highly relevant here. A couple months ago I posted two chapters of the Part specifically about that, intending to cite them in my dialog with @vervaeke_john, but forgot to.https://meaningness.com/eggplant/rationalism#philosophy …
