    "Every laboratory needs a philosopher. The philosopher’s role, however, is not only to philosophise on behalf of scientists, but to re-educate scientists in how to philosophise for themselves." Read this essay by Mel Andrews (@bayesianboy) bit.ly/463TgWV

    '“We” is an epistemology. “We” is an assumption of shared subjectivity, perspective, or experience. “We” is a promise and a threat. “We” is a tantalizing hallucination we cannot help but desire. “We” is what we write toward. Equally, “we” is what we must never reach.' @raginits
