My piece on Medium about brains and analog computation (reposted so I can pin it). medium.com/the-spike/brai…
New paper is live! It’s part of a symposium with Danielle Williams and Zoe Drayson. It’s open access, so you can actually read it. doi.org/10.1111/mila.1…

One contribution I've made to the philosophy of computation has been arguing that "analog" ≠ "continuous." Partially this has been conceptual, but partially historical. Now, there's a company making a new discrete analog computer. Vindication!

Just a few days left to submit a short abstract to our @Supercomputing workshop (Nov.22) on the ethical, social, and policy implications of high performance computing! 750 word abstracts due Aug. 9! Please share and consider submitting: sites.google.com/view/esp-hpc/
Today, I’m honored to give the final keynote address at IACAP 2024 on “Radically Rethinking Computation.”

If you’ve not yet heard the good news (or you’re not convinced) about analog computation, here’s a new publication for you! doi.org/10.1002/wcs.16…
📢 The next speaker in the Philosophy Speaker Series is @CoreyJMaley (Purdue University @LifeAtPurdue). His talk is titled "Radically Rethinking Computation" and will take place on Friday, April 12, 3:00-5:00 in 5280 Clifton Court Hall!
Is it bad form to assign an anthology as a textbook for a class in which you have an article? I won't be getting any money for the sales, and I'd assign it even if I didn't have a chapter in the book. Any thoughts?
