Having lost a mother young i want to say to the surviving children, if you guys ever hit a rough patch in life, never ever think you’re a disappointment to your mother. She will always be proud of you. A part of her probably blames herself, so reassure her by just doing the best you can everyday.

One way or another science will persevere. Whether it’s us doing it or some other creature. We take it for granted at our peril. Failing to comply to the big 4 and allowing non-epistemic values to encroach them risks our survival as an organism and furthermore a species.

I think im generally heading that direction with paleo neurobiology Really enjoyed your recent paper on overdetermination. Especially where empiricism aligns with pragmatism

Holotype is a board game about discovering and publishing ancient species! We had a great time playing and discussing with Brian and Jason from Gaming with Science. You can listen to our discussion here: www.gamingwithscience.net/e/s2e01-holo...

Cards and game pieces for the board game Holotype. There are discovery cards featuring ancient animals and a player board with researcher figures and tokens to track progress.

Panpsychism doesn’t make new predictions, lacks parsimony, and is unfalsifiable

Science's trumpet sounds and all the extinct animals line up to be classified. From Camille Flammarion's Le monde avant la création de l'homme (1886). Image: Pradaldi CC BY-SA 2.0. Flammarion only gets a few pages into his book before calling nearly everyone in a world an unthinking moron.

Engraving of an angelic figure blowing a trumpet, while a selection of prehistoric animals queue up before a thoughtful naturalist.

Glad to see the first out-of-Vilnius-paleo recurrence plot study of paleontological patterns. This powerful dynamical systems approach started its spread. Here the authors studies temporal structure of Jurassic ichnofacies. www.researchgate.net/publication/... 🧪 #EvoBio #Paleobio #Geology⚒️

Aron is a naturalist in the epistemological sense, like Peirce, Quine, Haack, Dennett, and Churchlands. Meaning we only talk about things that exist if they first are presented to us empirically. There is no teapot in space

Opie @palaeophilo.bsky.social · 13/01/2025

Aron’s “not” possible to me means not justified to be believed as possible His impossible means to me it’s justified to believe its not possible In doxastic logic the difference is ~Rbp=not-possible Rb~p= impossible
