In her recent 📄, Sylvia Wenmackers links branching time structures with non-Archimedean probability theory, and in doing so lends modal notions such as 'remote possibilities' and 'appreciable possibilities' a firm theoretical grounding 👇 link.springer.com/article/10.1... #philsci #mathsky #philsky

I've nearly finished this book.
(It has been a very busy 8 months in which i've also read very many other things.)
But I would recommend it!
Or most of it. Maybe skip the middle third, & hold your nose when he talks about sex...

ABSTRACT. Much of the literature on values in science is framed around the idea of a shift in the status of the so-called value-free ideal (VFI) for science: having been widely accepted in the past, it has now come to be thoroughly rejected. Instead, the commonly asserted view now is that there is a new problem for philosophy of science to address, namely, distinguishing appropriate from inappropriate value-influence on science. While understanding the many intricate ways that values can influence science is an important task for philosophy, we argue that this framing—that there is a single phenomenon to be understood or a single problem to be solved—is misleading and liable to distort inquiry. This framing creates a chimera.
Just accepted:
The New Chimera for Values in Science

Cool! One of the topics of our #philsci 2 course, which I am progressively spending less tie on. Maybe mistakenly, but I think this topic is a bit boring. I prefer to spend time on causal inference. Tell me I'm wrong!

I recently discovered that I’m the only one in the #birder community both taking a flâneur approach to the whole thing, and, importantly, using pataphysics as both a method of inquiry and as a taxonomy.

Arguments were good. People hadn’t yet thought of instrumentation that way in philosophy of science. Computational methods weren’t really understood as particularly interesting until recently in #philsci except for a few exceptions. AI has made them inescapable.
