Hi all! I'm a philosopher at VU Amsterdam. Over the past 6 years I've been leading the ERC-funded project 'The Social Epistemology of Argumentation'. With some amazing young scholars, we've been developing more realistic accounts of argumentative processes. I'll post some links to articles below.

How can science free itself from colonial legacies embedded in its practices? This is the central question driving a new project by Professor Catarina Dutilh Novaes, who joins NIAS in the first semester of 26–27 as the Distinguished NIAS-Lorentz Fellow. @cdutilhnovaes.bsky.social

I look forward to the blog post!

Absolutely! Do you know the book 'Data Grab'? It draws a very clear connection between colonialism and AI hype.

Looks like they were an interesting couple ☺️ I just listened to your dad’s song, I like it! Makes me think of Depeche Mode (which in my universe is a good thing, just to clarify!).

That happened to me once, for months! Turned out it was this song 👇(not by my father, you’re way cooler than me 😆) open.spotify.com/track/4oVnQx...

I loved it! There are even some faint connections with my own family history (a cousin of my grandmother's lived in Greece and was hanged by the Germans in 1945, and my mother has been researching this history in recent years), which made me appreciate the historical contextualization even more.

Sinds de val van het kabinet houden Liset van Dijk en ik alle tv-optredens van politici bij. We zijn gestart op 4-6 en volgen sindsdien systematisch welke politici in welke programma’s verschijnen.
Vandaag delen we de grafieken van 30-8 t/m 6-9.

And to clarify the implicature: I would not have suggested that my student publish in this journal if it weren't legit!

Real journal indeed, great paper by a former PhD student of mine published there last year.
