Patrick Suppes was born OTD in 1922. One of the great 20th century philosophers of science, Pat was an early critic of the semantic conception of theories, believing that theories are best conceived as sets of models. He was also accomplished in both empirical science and business. 🦋🦫 #PhilSci

We strongly recommend listening to this insightful discussion on history and science between two highly distinguished scholars, including esteemed Australian historian of science Peter Harrison. #hps #histsci #histstm

#philsci #histsci A substantial revision to “Scientific Progress” was published today by Ilkka Niiniluoto. Very interesting review.

William James was born OTD in 1842. As important as “pragmatism” to understanding James is “meliorism,” the idea that improving the world is possible, but not assured. We have to fight for it. “We receive in short the block of marble, but we carve the statue ourselves.” #philsky #booksky

Yes!! I passed the qualifying exam for PhD in Philosophy. Nothing special really. Except that I’m 62 years old. I’m a scientist with a PhD in Biology. #philsky #philsci

#histsci #philsky Yesterday was the anniversary of the mathematician, philosopher, and engineer Charles Babbage (b. 1791). He was involved in the creation of the first computer. Time to recommend the superb book of Odon Swade on the quest for the first computer.

OTD in 1836, HMS Beagle docked at Falmouth, after a 5 year voyage. Charles Darwin wrote in his diary, “To my surprise and shame, I confess the first sight of the shores of England inspired me with no warmer feelings, than if it had been a miserable Portuguese settlement.” 🧪#HistSci #STS

Happy to create a Center for Philosophy of Science at my Faculty. Quite unusual for a Faculty of Science. #philsci #metascience

#philsci Are you aware of some article on Whewell’s consilience of inductions for science undergraduate studs?

I have a good feeling on this social network. Twitter is no longer useful, but still plenty of philosophy there.
