Finally had a chance to listen to @tespiteri.bsky.social's interview with my friend Jahnavi Phalkey (@jahnavi.bsky.social). Great job, both of you! I have many follow-up questions, but that's not a bad thing #HPS

Christa Pike was tortured yesterday by the state of TN in every single USians name and the fact is that this is a country that is mostly OK with this. This says everything about all of us. We are all implicated in this barbaric practice. It's sickening.

what an utterly boring song. How did it get this big? This actually made me go and look for "Memories of East Texas" by Michelle Shocked. But it turns out she has pulled all her content from streaming services

Congratulations to John Norton for winning the 2026 Lakatos Award! I will admit that I have not read the two volumes, but his 2003 paper on the Material Theory of Induction is already a classic that I really like and cite regularly. #philsci #philosophy #hps

In spite of the criticisms it faced (including scientific and philosophical), this was important project! I learned a lot from engaging with it, and I am confident that we will be returning to this literature and to the questions it raised. Thank you for putting it out there!

In the 1930s, a group of European philosophers fled fascism and reshaped American philosophy. Why did logical positivism have such an impact on US thought? And why did it play a central role in the culture wars of the 1950s and 1960s? Released today! Logical Positivism: An American History (1/3)

I enjoyed speaking to Dr Jahnavi Phalkey about India’s place in the history of modern science, the ways in which that history has been constructed, & how the pursuit of nuclear physics became intertwined with a newly independent nation’s efforts to define its own identity. linktr.ee/thehpspodcast

as far as I remember, he was not hired by the philosophy department as such but by one person who had grant money. Nonetheless, there was quite a bit of protest among faculty and students
