Looking forward to my first trip to CUNY. I'll be going for a nice little logic workshop. logic.commons.gc.cuny.edu/2025/09/15/s...

Reminder that we are seeking submissions to a rad special issue! Send us your coolest papers that apply a feminist lens to the mind and to cognitive science! Deadline is January 15. #philsky hypatiaphilosophy.org/uncategorize...

"Queer feminist logic and contradictions: Or how logic and feminism can be relevant to each other" by @sara-ayhan.bsky.social in Synthese link.springer.com/article/10.1...

Anybody here with access to the Times Literary Supplement? There is an article from last year I would like to read.

Is #bikesky a thing? Can anyone recommend me front and rear racks for my 42cm surly disc trucker? I will buy you a pizza for your time

One of my favorite poems since childhood, and a poem I share every #autumnequinox. By the 12thc warrior poet Xin Qiji 辛棄疾, sidelined during peacetime, demoted, drifting through a decade of minor posts in remote lands. Poetry, then, is that which is left unsaid. “My, what a cool and lovely autumn.”

Why and how to delete your academia-dot-edu account right away. Read carefully so you can do so without first agreeing to their awful new policies:

I miss when you only had to pay for a computer program one time instead of every 12 months

Hoping someone can help me here: what would be a library or online resource (or other options) where I could find some of the publications of the (long defunct) Center for Editions of American Authors? Particularly their Newsletter, their reply to E. Wilson, their Statement of editorial principles.

The AJL just published a special issue in honor of Ross Brady. It is a great collection of papers, adding up to nearly 300 pages on Ross's work. ojs.victoria.ac.nz/ajl/issue/vi...

Yes, I think there have been more and more good subdiscipline open access journals. They are all worth taking seriously!! A partial list: liao.shen-yi.org/openaccess/ I've also tried to, individually, submit more to these journals.

Side question: what percentage of submissions at Phil Imprint pay the fee?

you can also, as a listener, train yourself to see past superficial stuff like this, and you owe it both to speakers and to yourself to do so

if we showed medieval theologians Kripke frames they would either beatify us or burn us at the stake (or first one then the other). these dudes were *very* into logic

One overlooked benefit of declaring preferred pronouns as a social norm is that it's not just for LGBTQ but also for people w non-Anglo names. I'm a cishet woman with a very feminine name but nobody's gonna know that if they don't know Chinese. But the anti-LGBTQ crowd are also anti-immigrant so..

One fun thing about showing students how to do reduction steps in natural deduction is that they fairly quickly decide they don't like having detours in proofs.

The new issue of Synthese emails bizarrely always load the first image from each article. Today, finally, this paid off.

Just use points or really anything else you like. Nothing wrong with that. You can do all the logic you like, if that’s what you want to do.

Looking for a web developer to update my website, but I'd rather hire, like, a nice student freelancer rather than a big company. Does anyone have advice about how to go about this? The internet seems to be mostly a morass of scammers.

does anyone here have a nice workflow about synching zotero w/ remarkable tablet? i was previously using an ipad pro w the zotero app signed in that synched my annotations, but i didn't like reading on the ipad screen which is why i'm trying the rm

from the perspective of writing specialist papers, do you guys perceive much of a difference between the papers that get published in specialist journals vs generalist journals? was asked about this and sorta don't, but maybe i'm not paying attention

Not sure philosophy's credibility will survive the revelation that disjunctive syllogism is fake.

Is there any interesting literature on the difference between audience and addressee in pragmatics?

if u could open your own museum what would it be about what are u going to devote your life to curate

The Dr Who episode 'Blink', but every time you close your eyes another hour of the day has gone by without you having made any progress on work, life, or relaxing from the demands of work and life

Lmao this rules so hard

The next Asian Workshop on Philosophical Logic will be held at Southwest University, Chongqing, China, April 10-12. The CFA is linked below. The paper submission deadline is Dec. 1, 2025. logic.swu.edu.cn/awpl2026/Cal...

Also unfortunate not to have any mention of computability-theoretic issues, although the axiom of choice is discussed. The existence of ultrafilters for Lindenbaum–Tarski algebras of countable languages doesn't require choice, and in fact is provable in a system conservative over PA.

Now this is one cleaver little prairie dog.. Wait for it…. 😂🤣

Imagining a world in which the discourse takes other corporate advertising as seriously as it currently takes AI advertising and we get thinkpieces about the future of sports now that wheaties has synthesized the breakfast of champions

Philosophy journals should host websites for 'Supplementary Materials' where you get to put all the replies to objections, interesting footnotes, and funny asides that you had to cut from the original paper.

[sobbing in hilary putnam, every day]

it's wild that R, the ubiquitous statistical computing language, was co-created by a Māori prof (Ross Ihaka) — and yet the vast majority of scientists who use R don't know this is like inventing the toaster. possibly the largest impact of a single member of an indigenous community on modern science

I did the thing you are never supposed to do. I wrote a (rough draft of a) textbook: Theories of Rational Decision It's technical, but from a philosophical perspective. It focuses on the normative theory but touches on some behavioral issues as well. raw.githubusercontent.com/kzollman/Rat...

Our history department is building on its strengths in history of science & technology. Pass it on to anyone who might be interested. (Just downstairs you also have a philosophy department that likes science and technology, too.)
