The ponytail is justified.
By scientific and logical proofs.
This argument is mathematically sound via Euclidian proofs.
I love listening to Dr Staloff, he’s super smooth, like an 80’s version of Mr Steal Yo Girl
Guarantee he had a few girls in his classes looking at him with starry eyes just like in those 80s movies. 😂

Great clip btw what a classic
2:34 "Baby, you no longer have to look over your shoulder at the ex's of the past! I have the _cognitive tools_ to go beyond them" 😎
I would like to know how is Dr Staloff right now? he must be old intelligence wisdom man 🧙♂️
You been commenting this for like a year huh?
Wow i am a 20 year old accountancy student with no relation to philosophy whatsoever, vigorously taking notes. THANK YOU INTERNET & Dr.Staloff
This Channel is just PURE GOLD!
What a debt we owe to Descartes. We could do with such thinkers running the world today. This lecture was terrific!
This one is my favorite. I actually laughed a few times. Dr Staloff is a great lecturer
Dr. Staloff is the best, legendary!
He's a close second to the legendary Dr. Sugrue

Lovely, this lecture put me at ease with the study of "Epistemology."
The 2nd time around was evern better!
I look forward to these lectures. TY!
Another amazing lecture. Thanks for sharing this with the “modern” peoples.
Was just hoping for some descartes content, and here it is! Great timing and content as always
Stalloff's mad cientist analogy was almost like a description of Matrix, on point
I am so excited for this! About to go to bed but this will be breakfast
A good hearty breakfast indeed. Enjoy.
Thank you !
I love you Dr. Staloff
At 12:10 he is almost giving the context to the matrix!! Incredible to think about.
The Matrix is heavily inspired by the philosophical tradition.
Some of the characters are even named after philosophers ! Wachowski are geniuses in many aspects
@@graine7929 I agree, BUT the last matrix sucked 😹
@@temirlankasmaliev9322 explain, I thought it was brilliant.
A series of essential questions are asked at 19:14 regarding the idea that God is imprinted on us from the outside: " Could [God] come from your imagination? But how so? How can you imagine something you've never experienced?"
But we do imagine things never experienced before. I've never fallen off a cliff, but I seem to experience that every week. When I was a kid, I had a lucid dream that I was Superman and was flying through the air. In another, I was on the moon, enjoying the buoyancy.
Are such fake experiences imprinted on me by the creator? Not sure what to make of it
I had the same doubt at that point. Imagination, surely, is the process of thinking about things you've not experienced. Remembering is thinking about things that you have. The question above makes more sense as "how can you remember something you've not experienced?" I can imagine anything that is gifted into 'the show between my ears', and maybe that is the point at which determinism ceases to have control of our thoughts. If the thought is original, how can it have been experienced? A stimulating lecture, thanks Darren.
Yahooo! More Dr Staloff!
Dr. Staloff’s intelligence and genuine charisma is of such purity it forces even a snarky cynic like yours truly to NOT laugh my ass off at literally everything else about him. Kudos to you. Shine on you crazy diamond. I hope you you’re still a proud, erudite ponytailman. I love your lectures and have learned much from them.
hahaha
He probably drives all his female students crazy! 😆
He is really full of himself and loves to hear himself lecture! Ha
Sure would be nice if you could eliminate the static background noise…
Definitely channeling the 90s Kianu
My favorite popcorn comedy: “Ernest Goes to Princeton”.
The greek word used by Plato and Socratès translated as "soul " also breath/life. It does not mean disembodied individual human /personality.
Psyche and pneuma are related but different things.
❤
Bro is straight up describing the matrix lol
Nah, man. The Matrix is straight out of Descartes' mind.
"Maybe you dreamed you had breakfast." Chuang Tzu was dealing with this 400 years before Christ when he asked "Did I dream I was a butterfly? Or am I a butterfly dreaming I am a man?" We have neglected the Far Eastern philosophical tradition for too long.
Damn he’s fine
“Hey, Verne… Cogito ergo sum.”
If computers become conscious, it ends religion.
16:12 links a major reason i fear neurology advancing too far. if this were to be taken away, if the confirmation that anything existed, even in a sense that true Cartesianism could argue is false, was no longer possible, what would become of us?
Then you abandon Foundationalism (the philosophical position that you need a certain foundation of non-inferential knowledge to have any justified belief) and adopt a more malleable and modern theory of Truth (like Coherence theory or Rorty's Pragmatism)
Absolutely nothing would happen.
"The proof of the existence of God is that we can have the concept that that God exists." 20:15
Pretty weak argument.
That's a no, so
Aw yeah son, epistemology
God is prior to, and created existence, therefore God, the transcendent, does not exist, though God is real for you, when you cease to exist psychologically also.
"refused to footnote anyone" yet he lifted I think therefore I am from Parmenides 🤔
Should make a Scumbag Steve meme out of that.
If you listen to Staloff he says that we shouldn't take anything at face value. Not that we should reject all statements. We need to prove them. Ultimately we all start with the premise "I am". Everything else flows out of that.
@@daithiocinnsealach3173 yeah it's likely just repeat thought bc it's a good one, I'm being petty because I'm not a fan of decartes 😂
My lizard brain tells me to show Descartes an fMRI brain scan + describe synapses + neurotransmitters as that's where the jokes are generated 😏
Descartes is at least 10 x overrated
