    1. Claude: Deep-research update (June 2026) — new sources added on omnivore fraction of PBM consumers.

      Three high-confidence new findings integrated:

      1. GFI US Consumer Snapshot (Jan 2025, Morning Consult Dec 2024, n=3,079): 72% of past-year US PBM eaters are active meat-eaters (57% omnivore + 15% carnivore); only 11% veg*n/pescatarian. Retail panel corroboration: 87% of US retail PBM dollars come from meat-buying households ($970M of $1,118M, NielsenIQ Homescan 2023). Now shown as primary chart in §04.5, replacing the less-precise Hartman Group range.

      2. Neuhofer & Lusk (2022, Scientific Reports — already at src-29) details added: 85.97% of PBMA-buying households also purchased conventional ground meat; only 2.79% were exclusive PBMA buyers. Peer-reviewed, IRI scanner panel, n=38,966 households — the strongest methodological data point in the set.

      3. Bryant Research UK (July 2023, n=1,000, new src-48): Occasional UK PBM consumers ~67% omnivore (consistent with prior claims). Key nuance: frequent UK PBM buyers split ~1/3 each (omnivores, flexitarians, non-meat-eaters). The ≥50% arithmetic lower bound for weekly consumers still holds regardless of frequency segmentation, but the 70–80%+ claim is better supported for occasional buyers or all-buyers combined than for the most committed frequent buyers specifically. This caveat is now added to the §04.5 evidence table and §08.

      Stat card updated: '≥50%' replaced by '72%' (US direct survey) as the headline figure, with UK lower bound in the tooltip. TLDR and §08 paragraphs updated accordingly.

    1. for - Dr. Donna Thomas - book - Children's unexplained experiences in a post materialistic world - analytic idealism - children perspective of reality - adjacency - children as natural philosophers - Deep Humanity as reminder of our philosophical nature

      adjacency - between - Children as natural philosophers - Deep Humanity - adjacency relationship - At time 59 minute of that interview, Dr Thomas makes a very insightful observation that - children are naturally philosophers - and ask deeply philosophical questions - Another way to look at Deep Humanity is that it is reminding us of these deeply philosophical questions the see all had when we were children - but we stopped asking then as we grew out of childhood because nobody could answer them for us

    1. Unrelated to the song itself. It is interesting that different people interpret the song's meaning differently. Likely due to individual differences in perspective, history, culture, etc.

      Makes me reflect. Is knowledge/wisdom contained solely in content and words? Or is knowledge/wisdom rather contained in the RELATIONSHIP, the INTERACTION, between past experience, previous knowledge (identity) and substance?

      Currently I am inclined to go for the latter.

    1. Matthew van der Hoorn So, you are instantly in the meta-world of having to grapple with making a choice while you are still defining the meaning and the criteria of choosing. My world is far simpler. A thought is worth including if it is delightful to think about. If I put my academic hat on, I would still use the same criteria, even while recognizing that not all delightful thoughts are publishable. I would hold onto the hope that delightful thoughts lead to original contributions, which, after some delay, might well be publishable.... in case that helps.

      About the originality of thought.

      Reply to me:

      Kathleen Spracklen An example would be useful there. Future video?

      I am grappling the difficult concept of what constitutes an "original thought". I think it is easy to grasp conceptually, but once you start thinking about it formally and try to put it to words, it becomes very confusing.

      Although this might be my own experience and not that of others.

      The reason I am trying to think about it is for my current research project on intellectualism.

    1. So we're good with three-dimensional space, but imagine if we had a primary sense of our own blood chemistry.

      for - adjacency between - primary sense of cellular metabolism - experiences of deep contemplative practice of Rainbow Body - adjacency statement - As per Father Francis Tiso's research into the Tibetan deep contemplative Dzogchen phenomena of Rainbow Body at the time of death as well as rigpa, Trekcho and Togal, he speculates that - such deep contemplations can potentially result in a primary sense of cellular and even subatomic processes taking place within the human body. - https://hyp.is/go?url=http%3A%2F%2Fdocdrop.org%2Fvideo%2FsDyu39FCAMk%2F&group=world - It seems that the multi-scale competency architecture would be a good scientific framework to explore these questions.

      So we're good with three-dimensional space, - but imagine if we had a primary sense of our own blood chemistry. - If you could feel your blood chemistry - the way that you currently see and smell and taste things that are around you, - I think we would have absolutely no problem having an intuitive understanding - of physiological-state space - the way we do for three-dimensional space.

      claim - Lifetime practitioners of Tibetan meditation claim they have a primary sensation of their own impending death suggestion - Suggest to Michael Levin to investigate such phenomena from a multi-scale competency architecture perspective - What else can the expert meditators directly experience? And how do they achieve this? How can deep contemplative practice result in such profound experiences? Would expert meditators resonate with Levin's framework?

      • for: epoche, epoche - interfaith applications, bracketing, applied epoche, Deep Humanity, DH, polycrisis, political polarization, religious polarization, epoche - research application

      • comment

        • I performed Google search for "Epoche and application to interfaith religion"
        • The reason is that I am exploring a hunch of the salience of applying epoche for deep interfaith understanding
        • political polarization constitutes an existential threat and is one important crisis in our current polycrisis
        • Unless we find ways to effectively and rapidly reduce polarization, the other crisis's such as climate crisis, biodiversity crisis and inequality crisis will likely not be resolved
        • religious polarization form ingroups / outgroups and is a major contributing factor to political polarization and violent conflict
        • hence it becomes important to understand how interfaith understanding can be enhanced
        • epoche appears to be one possible way to accelerate interfaith understanding

    1. (1:20.00-1:40.00) What he describes is the following: Most of his notes originate from the digital using hypothes.is, where he reads material online and can annotate, highlight, and tag to help future him find the material by tag or bulk digital search. He calls his hypothes.is a commonplace book that is somewhat pre-organized.

      Aldrich continues by explaining that in his commonplace hypothes.is his notes are not interlinked in a Luhmannian Zettelkasten sense, but he "sucks the data" right into Obsidian where he plays around with the content and does some of that interlinking and massage it.

      Then, the best of the best material, or that which he is most interested in working with, writing about, etc., converted into a more Luhmannesque type Zettelkasten where it is much more densely interlinked. He emphasizes that his Luhmann zettelkasten is mostly consisting of his own thoughts and is very well-developed, to the point where he can "take a string of 20 cards and ostensibly it's its own essay and then publish it as a blog post or article."

    1. The terms “a priori” and “a posteriori” are used primarily to denote the foundations upon which a proposition is known. A given proposition is knowable a priori if it can be known independent of any experience other than the experience of learning the language in which the proposition is expressed, whereas a proposition that is knowable a posteriori is known on the basis of experience.
