Another good quote from Anderson's response: "If the accessible world only consists of properties of an adaptive interface, then it is the lawful dynamics of the interface that are the objects of…

In his comment on this article, Anderson makes a good point regarding the assumptions underlying Hoffman et al's simulation. This is that it supposes fixed payoff values, and doesn't take into…
Take-home message: Bell's theorem, on which Hoffman is basing his claims, involves assumptions that (according to the author of the Nature article quoted above) are "by definition, empirically…
This is the status of Bell's theorem in the physics community:Physics: Bell’s theorem still reverberates Howard Wiseman19 June 2014"...
Correction to first sentence above: It should read: "It is possible to "confirm" any hypothesis." Obviously, the titles of most of these articles don't directly convey the idea that "objects don't…
The new look in perception science:Question: Why does figure x, drawn on a piece of paper, look like it is composed of right angles, when actually it contains no right angles? Answer 1: What figure?
You must be joking. It is possible to confirm any hypothesis? Such "confirmations" do not necessarily constitute empirical tests...
Here are published papers testing the falsifiable hypothesis that no physical object has a definite value of any dynamical property when it is not observed...
Very brief summary: The "falsifiable prediction" that “No object has a position, or any other physical property, when it is not perceived” cannot be falsified except by perceiving some objective (phys…
Hoffman et al claim that the “interface theory” is falsifiable. This is false. THE PROPOSAL IS NOT FALSIFIABLE, for a number of reasons. In addressing the falsifiability question explicitly, Hoffman…
