Another talk that might be of interest to Austin LWers, hosted by Scott Aaronson. Description:
"In the 17th century, Spinoza took up the project first begun in Ancient Greece: to think our way toward ethics, grounding it on an objective description of nature. We've learned a tremendous amount about nature since Spinoza's day. Can it be put to use in furthering Spinoza's project?"
