Este semestre estoy enseñando "Epistemología social", y esta semana discutiremos el artículo de @angeleserana.bsky.social y @drxl.bsky.social "El conocimiento como una actividad colectiva" (revistas.up.edu.mx/topicos/en/a...). ¡Está buenísimo! Muy recomendado.
"…even when [people] do behave in a sober-minded fashion, they might find that this is not enough to insulate them from public controversy [specially] when the [public] itself is divided and inflamed…” (Keith E. Whittington 2019)
“…the vital interest of the university in fostering high-quality teaching and scholarship is enhanced when professors get into heated political arguments with members of the general public on social media…” (Keith E. Whittington 2019)
¿Puedo inferir genuinamente sin tener algún tipo de actitud epistémica ante las premisas de mi inferencia?

I was very surprised by a close friend of mine telling me they do not browse at bookstores: they only go when they want to buy a specific book. They just ask for it, pay, and go.

“...our current relationship to history is seriously out of whack. [Most people] are caught between the belief that nothing can change ... and the notion that we need to return to a mythical past…” (Jacob Mikanowski 2019)

I went from historicism may ultimately be wrong, yet it is an intellectual tradition with valuable insights, to historicism is obviously wrong and full of BS back to historicism may be ultimately wrong, yet it is an intellectual tradition worth knowing with valuable insights

Mauricio Suárez: las teorías [en filosofía de la ciencia] tienen que emerger de manera orgánica de las prácticas (científicas)
Una de las cuestiones centrales dentro de las teorías contemporáneas de la representación es si lo que explica que algo –una palabra, un modelo, una imágen, etc– represente algo es el que quien la usa adquiere compromisos sobre lo que las demás personas racionalmente inferirían de su uso o viceversa
Mauricio Suárez parece querer separar las siguientes dos preguntas:
¿Qué hace que algo represente a Y?
¿Qué distingue una buena representación de Y de una mala?
Me parece de sentido común el que ambas preguntas deben estar ligadas.
‘My ties to Habermas were multi-layered. He was a mentor and an antagonist; a figure who showed me early on how to practise “critique with an emancipatory intent” but from whom I eventually had to distance myself.’

One of Kripkestein’s main points is that the potential cannot be grounded on the actual, because the infinite cannot be grounded on the finite.
The problem, of course, is whether there is an entity that is the subject, separate but related to the person as it presents itself to third persons.
Is what is possible independent from what is actual?

Sense data theory was not such a bad idea, actually.
To hypothesize that there is an object, say, planet 9 is not to postulate a hypothetical object Planet 9, just as to imagine a pink elephant is not to create an imaginary pink elephant.
