UPON REFLECTION WITH NICK BYRD Welcome to Upon Reflection, a podcast about what we think as well as how and why we think it. I'm Nick Byrd. I study the philosophy of cognitive science and the cognitive science of philosophy. In this podcast I share my own and others' research about the mind. For instance, I'll talk about the differences between intuition and reflection as well as how intuitive reasoning predicts different SUPPORT | NICK BYRD, PHILOSOPHER-SCIENTIST Why do I blog, Tweet, post on Facebook and Reddit, etc.? Because I want the research I do and consume to be more easily and freely available. Alas, this activity can take some time and—in the case of this website—money. So, one way to support my attempts to make research more easily and freely available is to donate a tiny amount toward the cost of maintaining this website. E.g., if THE ANTI-NATALISM COMPARISON: CONTRADICTION, EQUIVOCATION Table 2. Existence vs. Actual Non-existence. This seems to be a more accurate account of non-existence.

WHY CRITICAL REASONING MIGHT NOT REQUIRE SELF-KNOWLEDGE I recently reread Tyler Burge’s “Our Entitlement to Self-knowledge” (1996). Burge argues that our capacity for critical reasoning entails a capacity for self-knowledge. Like a lot of philosophy, this paper is barely connected to the relevant science.

I am currently a fellow at Florida State University. Starting Fall 2020, I will be an Assistant Professor of Philosophy at Stevens Institute of Technology. My research combines philosophy of cognitive science and cognitive science of philosophy. Existing projects examine what we can (and cannot) infer from social scientific research, how psychological factors predict philosophical dispositions, and how network effects predict human welfare. These projects aim to better understand human psychology in order to improve human flourishing. Funding for this work has come from the Society of Christian Philosophers, the John Templeton Foundation, Duke University, and Florida State University. From 2017 to 2020, over 200,000 people from 195 countries found my research on this website. My work has also been featured in press releases, radio segments, podcasts interviews, invited blog posts, conference presentations, social media posts, and other mediums in the United States, the United Kingdom, Canada, Australia, the Netherlands, and Switzerland. For more information, including free preprints of my latest accepted papers, see byrdnick.com/cv . For more info about me, see below, follow me online, or contact me.
BIO
My mother was an accountant, a jeweler, and a social worker. My father was a restaurant owner and restaurant product salesman. I grew up in Massachusetts and South Florida. Since I was a kid, I liked building stuff — with Lego, wood, metal, motors/engines, …whatever I could get my hands on, really. As a teenager, my favorite classes were the ones in which I got to make stuff, use computers, argue, or some combination thereof. One of my first (and favorite) jobs was building and remodeling homes. When I wasn’t at school or at work, I was doing track, soccer, football, band, church, theatre, video games, or volunteer stuff.EDUCATION
As a teenager, I enjoyed — among other things — reading and writing about how things work. Eventually, I decided that I wanted to do this full-time. So when I started college, I majored in Engineering and Religion. I guess I thought that those were the paths to figuring out how things work. A few years into college, I changed my mind. I realized that philosophy is more foundational than either engineering or religion: it is meta-engineering and meta-religion. So I became a philosophy major. A few more
years passed and, in graduate school, I changed my mind again. I realized that cognitive science is more foundational than philosophy: it reveals how philosophical thinking works. So now cognitive scienceis the
keystone in my answers to most philosophical questions.DAILY ACTIVITIES
I post about what I’m thinking, reading, writing, etc. on social media. And I post my academic stuff on academic social networks. You can follow along at the links below:SOCIAL
