MODERATORS
Descartes was also a century before Hume. I can't blame Descartes for being stuck in the 17th century, or for that matter, Thomas Aquinas for being stuck in the 13th century. But Descartes pondering of the evil demon informs more modern versions of idealism (like the simulated universe hypothesis or Azathoth's dream) and his first step remains the initial anchor in deciding if our world is material or ideal.
He also did no small amount of interesting math.
When it comes to my own understanding of life, the universe and everything, I take my own cues from Camus, one of Popper's contemporaries.
