It’s hard to take one’s mind off the world events today, but here is something to distract you maybe. My paper Science Without Trust is now officially published. #philsci
I have a new paper out in Biology & Philosophy where I explore the overlap between the philosophy of measurement and ancestry in human population genetics. Very grateful to the philosophers & scientists who encouraged me to write this up!

Another war crime by Israel and the USA. An important place for free, independent philosophy of science in Iran destroyed by criminal bombing. #philsci
I'm looking forward to it. Great comments from diverse perspectives by Villegas, Elliott-Graves, and Skillings. Conference info: apaonline.org/2026pacific#APAPacific26. There's a pinned thread on the book at my profile. #philsci #hpbio #philsky #evolution #ecology #symbiosis #causation #probability
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.

The Palgrave Schelling Handbook
Offering a comprehensive and authoritative reassessment of Schelling’s evolving thought, 'The Palgrave Schelling Handbook' provides scholars with an indispensable guide to his periods, themes, and enduring influence across philosophy. bit.ly/4v4J1zr #PhilSci #BookSky
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.

Some of us in philosophy of science have been concerned abt this wrt computational methods for almost three decades (before AI) without anyone really listening. The Epistemic opacity in scientific computer simulations literature started bc of this concern. Glad people are catching up.

LLMs are often referred to as "stochastic parrots 🦜," a label that assumes they cannot bear meaning. But how could this be evaluated? @tjc1999.bsky.social distinguishes three problems around #AI and meaning in a short Substack reflection 👇 moralweights.substack.com/p/should-we-... #philsky #philsci
Flyer image for our symposium’s second workshop, titled, "Madness as a Way of Seeing - An Experimental Study of Charlotte Perkins Gilman’s The Yellow Wallpaper” and happening on April 18th from 10-11:30a PT 1-2:30p ET 6-7:30 GMT. The description reads, "fACILITATED BY CARA-JULIE KATHER, PHD (Leuphana University Lüneburg), Independent Scholar, THIS WORKSHOP ASKS “What is seen, heard, AND experienced in modes routinely understood as mad? What do we find out when we engage with madness as a way of perceiving?” In this workshop we experiment on this matter together by engaging with reading and writing collectively. The short story - The Yellow Wallpaper by Charlotte Perkins Gilman – will guide and inspire us as it is a story of a “woman gone mad” dating back to the patriarchal diagnosis of ‘hysteria’ common in the Victorian era. We will read parts of this story and let it wash us into our own writing on mad seeing."
