Main dialog of the plugin
I built a Zotero plugin to fix inconsistent author names in your library. (J. Smith, John Smith, Smith John… we're all familiar.)
Mendeley had this for years. @zotero.org didn't. 500+ cases in my library alone.
Now you can batch-review and normalize all at once: github.com/milekpl/zote.... Free.

This is the King of Belgium, presenting me with the 2025 Ernest-John Solvay Prize, somewhat loftily also referred to by the press here as the Flemish Nobel Prize.
Awarded every 5 years, the first winner in 1965 was Ilya Prigogine. The latest in 2020 was Johan Wagemans. Quite a company to be in...

#WorkshopOnMinimalCognition
Lovely review of Playing Possum by Travis Timmerman, published in Ethics. Above all I'm thrilled that the extremely silly word "jepperfication" (made up by @richardmoore.bsky.social to help me translate the also made up "jontrinfuncación") has made it into such a posh journal.
"White Queen Psychology" is a diatribe against meaning rationalism, as was the Epilogue of LTOBC. My desire is to kill meaning rationalism dead, and then beat on it. Perhaps I will succeed in raising one or two more doubts about it. Reasoning, I insist, is done in the world, not in one's head. Logical pos- sibility (known a priori) is impossible. And the only hope for inten- tional psychology is to embrace its biological roots.
This Millikan line goes (as they say) hard.
