Dohech has this great view of the world where he believes that everything important is understandable

by a single human.

By important, he means underlying based theories that drive most of reality.

And he fixates on four theories.

I could argue maybe there's a few more, especially if you start getting into Adam Smith and the

wealth of nations and a few other sociological ones.

But he's obviously a physicist.

He's concerned more with reality and truth-seeking, not human systems.

The four that he picks are the theory of epistemology, the theory of evolution by natural selection,

quantum theory.

He subsumes relativity and other physics into that, and then the theory of computation,

which includes his theory of quantum computation.

These four are fascinating.

It's probably worth touching on each one for various listeners.

What is interesting about each of these theories?

What is the breakthrough here that might be non-obvious?

Let's start with epistemology.

The reason I love the big infinity is because Deutsche does a very rigorous review of what

is correct in epistemology.

What do we know to be the best answers in epistemology?

And once you have that, once you have a good theory of knowledge, then you can decide what

else is true.
