Just a note that I finally updated my blogroll on the side. It's still a work in progress and I'm sure there are blogs I don't have listed that I should. (Feel free to tell me of ones I should add) But I did get rid of most of those that haven't been updated for sometime. Yes, I know I promised all sorts of updates to the blog but as you all know, priorities have to be kept straight and this is pretty low of a priority ultimately. I did clump the blogs I read regularly at the top. No value judgment should be taken from that - it's just that I use the sidebar a lot myself.
Can I suggest my own blog The n-Category Cafe? There's plenty of mathematics and physics there, but also time for philosophy, including posts on Alasdair MacIntyre, e.g., here and here.
You've got Kulturblog spelled wrong. :)
I could have sworn I had the n-Category Cafe up there as I actually read that one regularly. I must of accidentally deleted it. Of course a lot of the physics is a tad over my head. (My goal is to be able to take early retirement so I can do more advanced theoretical physics) I added it back to the science section.
Thanks so much for the link! Feel free to tell me what you would like me to post more about; I always feel like I'm running out of topics, and I hate using my studies to drive my blogging (although that ends up happening 9 out of 10 times).
Well, good texts for physicists with say a reasonable background in physics but who didn't specialize in advanced theoretical physics. i.e. what to read after Misner, Thorne and Wheeler to get up to speed on string theory or loop quantum gravity.
Physics is way, way over my head. I just blog about poetry and assorted nonsense.
I'll see what I can do, though.
Oh, whoops. Wrong person. (grin)
John Baez is the master expositor on our blog. Perhaps you know of his page of Fun Stuff, some of whose entries arose from extended conversations on newsgroups. I hope that expository pieces will spin off our conversations at the Cafe. There was plenty of good material spread through the two 'dimensional analysis' posts (here and here. (The summary which makes up the post in the latter is very good.)
Yes, I was (until I got busy this year) a regular reader of Baez' This Week in Mathematical Physics and was excited when he joined that blog.
I've closed comments in order to avoid spam since I don't check this older blog as much anymore.
