Does anybody have a clue if John Searle is still alive?

I was going to berate you/them for implying they knew cognitive I thought it was but was the paper too interesting

Outside of the crazies I dont see this very often. Ie people deservedly scrutinizing psychology then inferring physics is also not worth pursuing or funding. Maybe im wrong though, would love to see examples

I suppose that's fair and i wouldnt attack science as an enterprise. However, I wasn't really referring to "fake" science so much as bad science - which is obviously hard to put an objective number on. And I'm also bias being in psychology/psychiatry which atleast somebody has memeified

Seems kinda strawmany as ive never heard any make that generalization. However, i didnt listen to the podcast so maybe im missing the reference. Clearly alot of variation between fields though either way it seems.

I don't really understand you're arguing for here. You're seemingly acknowledging at least some fields are largely capable of a lot of junk science - but other scientists or people shouldn't call them out for it because it aligns with some right-wing pundits narratives? And thus should instead...?

Definitely seems to be the case

Wish I were able to have more conversations with such overly-confident neuroscience people !

How many times have you been told the cerebellum was probably going to be simple?

Separate Ways though, for sure . That music video is also one of the funniest in history

Clark Roberts @darkhat.bsky.social · 10/01/2024

Fair enough. That choice still wouldn't make it on my top 5 journey songs though.

Clark Roberts @darkhat.bsky.social · 10/01/2024

Fleetwood? :) Would be my choice, even though not very high on my list.

Clark Roberts @darkhat.bsky.social · 10/01/2024

Those are mostly terrible songs, yikes

First 🟦 sky post! Ever struggled with allocating your time across different tasks? In this project, we looked at how cognitive constraints, like time pressure & cognitive load, affect how people prioritise different goals. #AcademicSky #PsychSciSky #PhDSky www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

We have a new paper 🤸‍♀️ out in PNAS from recently graduated Dr Sean Kelley - in 3 large samples, we built personalised emotion networks from 8 weeks of twice daily mood sampling and tested how that related to changes in depression... 1/n www.pnas.org/doi/10.1073/...

Is the vagus nerve primarily regulating 'rest & digest'? In our new TiCS review, we outline that it is time to expand our perspective on vagal signaling to include 'strive to survive' as a second survival mode. Work w/ @glassybrain.bsky.social #neuroscience authors.elsevier.com/a/1iALr4sIRv...

The vagal afferent pathway and its theorized function in allostatic behavior.
Interoception encodes bodily demands that arise once an allostatic set point, such as a sufficient nutrient supply, is unmet. Interoceptive signals can be evoked by changes in bodily states (e.g., lack of nutrients) or emulated by vagus nerve stimulation (VNS)
