A fair amount to chew on in this entry from Michael Harris, focusing on the quirky (Harris says, "
eclectic")
online journal Inference (current issue includes an
interesting Gregory Chaitin piece, as well as the
set/category theoretical piece Harris concentrates on):

...though, if you're philosophy-phobic, perhaps best to avoid :-[
(Harris also mentions the loose theory some have that controversial writer David Berlinski is behind, or at least associated with, the journal, whose editors/progenitors go unnamed.)
