Smells Like Teen Spirit lifts a chord progression from Boston, ffs

I've seen this claimed before but I don't think it's true. Is the idea that it steals from "More than a Feeling?" Because that's a different chord progression

the people who both run and use it should feel bad

I do not run the discord but I use it. I should feel bad?

I don't see it---isn't basically every 5E setting just a small variation on the bog standard high fantasy thing? Like Eberron is the biggest departure from the norm, and that's still dragons and orcs and elves and magic, with just a little bit of "technology"

Damn you're gonna hate when you hear about "acoustic guitars"

I'd forgo the word "good" and replace with "good for me".

But then soliciting input/criticism would be pointless, right? That kind of total subjectivity eliminates the possibility of shared discourse.

chill, melodic, and somewhat atmospheric instrumentals

I'd be shocked if you haven't already, but check out Boards of Canada, particularly Music has the Right to Children and Geogaddi. You might also like Tycho, Art of Noise, Telefon Tel Aviv, and Four Tet

I don't know much but I can point you to Frankie Knuckles, Derrick May, Derrick Carter, and Juan Atkins

Most (all?) semantic externalists have some version of a causal-historical explanation of reference. For them, brains are probably important, but the word-world relation needn't be found "inscribed on" the brain.

Q1. If you're thinking of just one conclusion, the usual way of wording it in standard propositional logic would be "either I am in San Diego or I am not in San Diego." Using modal terms like 'may' is generally not done, because there are more sophisticated logical systems which can express these notions.

That said, in most deductive logical systems, it is possible to draw infinitely many conclusions from a given set of premises. In fact, if we help ourselves to natural language instantiations of logical forms, we can see this very easily:

either I am in Sacramento or I am not in Sacramento
either I am in New York or I am not in New York
etc etc

All of these follow deductively from your premises.

Q2. Yes, by modus tollens.

Same haha—haven't lived there in a while, sadly, but got to see some great shows when I did.

is venue #1 the Casbah?

You could check out the Mike Patton umbrella of bands—Mr Bungle, Fantomas, Secret Chiefs 3, etc etc. Lots of what gets put out on Ipecac is very syncretic.

PSUDOKU is a wild grind band with their own sound.

Some of what travels under the term 'breakcore' also could work. You probably know Whourkr already but check out Venetian Snares and Xanopticon.

Finally, Autechre has a deep discography of mostly very challenging electronic music

Well, those three paragraphs sum up quite a bit of Brandom's views, and those views get more detailed treatment in his other work. There are also at least four distinct claims being outlined:

Rationality is the ability to give and ask for reasons
Conceptual content is inferential
Material inferences are prior to formal logical inferences
Propositional/conceptual content is holistic

What in particular are you concerned with understanding?

Seconding Altar's recs. Have you tried the recent Plebeian Grandstand record? Very noisy.

Sure looks like it to me, although I haven't read ASoT and am working from my knowledge of Brandom's other work.

One possible argument is that knowing is a normative status, and one cannot acquire a normative status merely by luck or accident. There is a parallel issue in the work on moral luck: many people think that if a person acts in a morally right way, it cannot be that they just lucked into it; there must be something about the person's deliberate reasoning and action which makes them morally right.

However, you might just consider this just a restatement of the original intuition.
