The three that I referenced are all in my own area of academic interest.

But about that word "actual"...

The claim is that I am the *actual* author of texts under these noms des plumes, i.e. "I did the typing".
Your "it could bee" sophistries could "take a walk", but don't. The "joys of filching"...

Because your words have no equivocation:

1990s to the 2020s:

I will take your double-talk as an admission that you fibbed.

I am very interested in all of the philosophical details required to
create a fully functional human mind using software.

The key starting point of this process is to overturn the Tarski
Undefinability theorem so that a working truth predicate can be defined.

When this is done then Davidson's truth conditional semantics can be
anchored. Until then all AI research is "anchored" in shifting sands.

Yeah no equivocation: your "mind-fu" is, uh, flagging. The "truth-conditions" for evaluating the claims are stated
clearly enough thereby, sure.

I.e.: "To say that he used a name as a writing pseudonym is to say some writing of a substantial bulk by him appeared
under the name, even if the name was used by other people. Is this Rubard responsible for all the writing under many
of these noms des plumes?"

talking to yourself about them on this forum so I chimed in with your
own fake names.

I've seen that one before, "dipshit". Next up: "And yet..." But life, and US law concerning the topic, doesn't work that way.

Dipshit, it's a famous "ruse". One of the problems, though, is that *you* are more "taken in" by it than others. (Seriously.)

What idiot you doesn't understand is, under 'normal contexts', your supposed hip flip is precisely *irrelevant*.
According to US law people simply "wrote what they wrote", under their own name or a pseudonym.
Your '11th-grade-curmudgeon' dimwit shit is beside the point.
