How exactly does one go about signing this pledge?
Nope. His work on the questions of the nature of thought, language, and mind is both extremely influential & deeply philosophical. Some of his work on linguistics you can argue is not philosophy. Some I think clearly is.
I would say his work in linguistics is philosophy.
Simple explanation, I'm afraid: I was dumb. There are no exceptions (...at least, none that I'm currently aware of). Dang's "missing comment" actually is on his page, just not where I was looking. The comment was new,…

I don't think that works. It will show the dead, but not their children.
It's not apparent to me. HN users tend to think similarly to each other and are often wrong.
Have you read the papers? Might be they're good, but rejected for dumb/annoying reasons. Exagerating about these things is a personality trait, not a mental illness. Maybe the papers are totally crank, but as I said,…
It's not apparant to me. Cancer claim seemed like a conditional one.
I acknowledge that the word 'race' is used in many ways. But in the context of HBD we can probably limit ourselves to those definitions rooted in biology. I did not invent the definition I gave, though it is written by…
If you asked them to list races, they might give those out of some habit, though I doubt anybody seriously considers those to be races. I mean, do people really think that the Han Chinese, the Persians, the Hindu…

I doubt that any serious racists consider that there is some single "black race". Nonetheless, as far as I can tell, you're presenting the case that there are significant genetic differences between black races and…
I'm not suggesting that the term "HBD" has other more benign uses. I'm suggesting that it refers to a body of thought in which various claims are made, and that you are focused on one of those claims, whereas our…
> Black people as a whole have more genetic diversity within themselves than every other race. Would you mind explaining this in more detail?
It seems to me that you just have a more specific issue with HBD than jasonhansel has. jasonhansel takes issue with the idea that there are racial differences in intelligence You take issue with another, related, one of…
The reason akomtu and I adressed the "mott" is that it was the claim ascribed to HBD: > HBD (or "human biodiversity") is a euphemism for the view that there are genetic racial differences in intelligence. and the…
Are you saying that the simple fact that many people have come to the same conclusion disconfirms that conclusion?
I just do it the old-fashioned way: memorisation.
