I need new categories for the blogroll. Or at least, I need a category for blogs by philosophers that are not, or at least do not aim to be, philosophical blogs. Until I add that category, you might like to read Diachronic Agency by Ted Hinchman and Dan Jacobson. At least one of the authors insists it is not meant to be a philosophical blog, though just how many general-interest blogs have posts on Non-Constitutive Existence Internalism is presumably not that open a question.

From the other direction, The Infinite Loop is announced to be by an “irate and sardonic student of neuroscience at an east coast university”, but seems to be largely about philosophy of mind. I think posts on Kim, Fodor, functionalism and multiple realizability are all great things, but I’m not sure how far it gets one in a neuroscience program.

UPDATE: In the comments section, Ted Hinchman politely requests that if you do visit his and Dan’s site, it not be to “gawk”. I think that’s only fair, though I don’t think they’ve got much to worry about, especially compared to some of the disaster posts that have cropped up here from time to time to time. If you want to look at Ted’s more polished thoughts, his Nous paper from March, Trust and Diachronic Agency, is available via that link. The paper looks pretty good, as you’d expect from a paper published in the finest journal in philosophy, but I can’t make a definitive judgment since it’s about a million miles from my areas of ‘expertise’.
