KILTS ARE PROPER MALE ATTIRE
I got married in proper highland dress thank you very much and have until recently kept my own kilt. The kilt is the ultimate form of male dress for a host of reasons both biological and practical. And a warm sporran serves as a reasonable cup.

INTERESTING.
This fellow cited me in a paper. The cite is my argument that there are no influential living philosophers, because science theorizing) has a higher standard of thought than philosophy (philosophizing).
It looks like he is working on a book. He has put out a handful of papers.
He has a very similar program in mind on science versus philosophy.
He is from Paris and writes in the french model (Cartesian Rationalist) not the german or english, but it’s all scientific.
What’s interesting is that he is in the Art business (as I used to be). Hopefully I get to chat with him at some point and expore his thinking a bit. Particularly the science – art axis.
Some of his paintings are attached. (I was trained in representationalism and art history so I’m kinda old fashioned compared to him.)
His artwork is successful. You have to break the 15k barrier, then the 30K barrier to make a good living at it. So he apparently is doing it.

(worth repeating)
—As Iâve said repeatedly, and will continue to, the primary economic advantage any culture can seek is demographic. This will exacerbate over the next century such that smaller states with superior demographics will constantly outperform larger states with worse demographics. The people you live with have greater influence on your potential than do your abilities.—

Let me help you. Males learn via dominance play. I teach the ‘male way’ through providing vehicles for dominance play by means of articulate argument. I stomp on other means of dominance play. But if you taught boys through dominance play they would be interested in education.

It’s a book length treatment.
But you know, hayek, popper, turing all came out at about the same time. Mises, brouwer, and bridgman about the same time. With chomsky then mandelbrot and minsky following. I am not sure who understood the work of whom. But in retrospect I can see the convergence.
Operationalism was sitting there and they had all the pieces, but no one put it together. In retrospect the isolation of the disciplines and their different languages was clearly a cause. The war was clearly a cause because of the academic shift in focus from truth (rule of law) to pragmatism (aggregates and keynesianism, marxism and postmodernism).
My current position is that pragmatism/utilitarianism and the end of truth and reciprocity (law) as a means of decidability in favor of disciplinary utilitarianism (pseudoscience) prevented the synthesis. I know that when I listened to hoppe is saw the underlying issue, and when I read the calculation debate I understood mises versus hayek. I remember it very clearly. I remember where I was standing at the Mises Institute. It just took me a long time to unravel the puzzle.
I think the only other person that came close to it was Rafe Champion. I remember reading a half finished paper of Rafe’s back in maybe the 90’s or early 00’s and thinking “you know this is about right”.
But combining the work of all these thinkers (standing on their shoulders) should have (in my opinion) occurred in the 60’s if not for the civil unrest caused by the left’s takeover of the academy and discourse.
The things that have helped me are the genetics/hbd movement, as well as the cog-sci movement, and the change post 2000 due to the conversion of psychology from a pseudoscience to physical science due to imaging.
That said once you learn the two primary programming language paradigms, and the two or thee primary software paradigms, and the three primary database paradigms, and practice reducing reality to combination, and then apply these ideas to cognition and cooperation and law you see hayek was very close.
