The clip fails just over hafway through. I've tried it on different computers with different OSs, and I downloaded it and played it from my hard drive -- nothing helps I'm afraid.
Hm, maybe my understanding is lacking, but isn’t Spinoza still in trouble if distinctness (not separability) are under threat? After all, although there is only one substance, the extension mode of one billiard ball isn’t the same as another. Extension itself, really, can’t be considered as not having distinctions (though, I’d like to hear a monist argue the contrary). Even if, for example, the kind of plenum Spinoza believed in is one whole.
Neither Hume nor Spinoza "actuated" anything, unless you're talking about getting the wife to take out the garbage, so, as to facilitate uninterrupted cogitation. Yes, it really does need some sort of qualifier before the awkward trope. Action and thought are distinct and almost op positional at times. This ambiguity is near to a present day mental disorder on the Left.

Della Rocca is the best guide on Spinoza.
His Spinoza book (Routledge, 2008) is amazing.
What a great talk on an absolutely essential topic!

The way to go is Priority Monism and PSR and Necessitarianism..they all go hand in hand...either idealism or physicalism..it does not matter much.
Brilliant!
OK, today it's working.... Hume's account of induction is vindicated!
monism=pluralism

Hume is not an empiricist. Common misunderstanding.
No

Use your words
Many philosophies are famous for their beautiful ignorance and misleading, among whom both Hume and Spinoza.
Ignorance and misleading of what?
