What is your favorite topic in the Philosophy of Computers? Mine most definitely has to be the ontology of computation. The question is basically what makes a physical process "computation" rather than a mere causal process. It goes deep man.

definitely The Problem Of Technocapital. what is it, why is it, can it be defeated and how, should it be defeated, etc

i am a Human Supremacist and my interest in computer philosophy is primarily one of begrudging respect for one's worthy adversary

I doin't care about technocapital as a problem. Social and political problems are gay.

Regarding your other point, I'm the opposite of this. I'm an extreme anti-anthropocentrist . To me anthropocentrism is a parochial bias. It's a failure to recognize intelligence, value, agency and dignity outside the human species.

I enjoy your poasting though. I actually think you are peaking right now. Or over the last few months or so.

i have the values i have because they're biologically programmed into me. but even if i didn't - it seems pretty objectively clear that all values that a human *can have* are necessarily based in our human-ness (our biology)

referring to "value outside of the human species" - all of this only has "value" because of its reference/derivation from human-ness. you Value intelligence, agency, etc in non-humans because you are a human, and your brain values those things because they are what are valued in humans themselves

i think Land came closer than anyone else re: claiming Value completely outside of the human cinematic universe when he identified Intelligence = Extropy. still, this hearkens back to our human animalistic drive to assert ourselves on our environment/the universe, but it's much better than anything that anyone else has come up with imo
