Still Haunted by Laplace’s ‘Demon’

This article has been published in the spring 2026 issue of The New Atlantis under that publication’s revised title, “The Meaning-Filled Universe”. The article is currently available (behind a paywall) at https://www.thenewatlantis.com/publications/the-meaning-filled-universe. (The journal, if I may say so, is well worth the subscription cost — and not just because it’s printed a good number of my own articles!) The current article will become freely available when the summer issue comes out, perhaps in June, 2026, or July at the latest.
