Bee at Backreaction has been busy over the last few months, here is my backlog reading list:
- A Thousand Words
- Do we live in a computer simulation?
- Consciousness and Physics from Scratch
- 10 things I wish I had known 20 years ago

- Frequently Asked Questions

- Does the scientific method need revision?
It is a good starting point, if you're not reading Backreaction already.
