But, in reality, scientific theories are not ‘derived’ from anything. We do not read them in nature, nor does nature write them into us. They are guesses – bold conjectures. Human minds create them by rearranging, combining, altering and adding to existing ideas with the intention of improving upon them. We do not begin with ‘white paper’ at birth, but with inborn expectations and intentions and an innate ability to improve upon them using thought and experience.

They’ve made the mistake of omitting something at the beginning of the sentence without indication before, twice. It’s the kind of mistake Deutsch himself would make (eg here and here). So I’m starting to wonder whether Deutsch runs that Twitter account and misquotes himself. The account has his photo and links to his homepage so maybe? But the activity doesn’t match the British timezone...
