For those who didn’t catch it, Saul Kripke is in the front row in the gray sweater and purple shirt seen often from the back. David Chalmers is also in the front row in a leather jacket. That was a very smart and talented audience and speaker!

Great lecture! But if we used base 13 what we call 29 with base 10 would be 23 with base 13, not 21, right? Not that it makes any difference whatsoever in what the professor was saying!
