New: "The Primordial Mark" — one operation (drawing a distinction) generates the ultrametric tree underlying spin glasses, p-adic numbers, QCD jets, and the Classification of Finite Simple Groups.
The CFSG is exhaust. The engine is the Mark.

The same ultrametric tree—where every triangle is isosceles—appears in spin glasses, QCD jets, phylogenetics, p-adic numbers, and cognition. New synthesis traces one pattern from physics to perception: "More become one; one becomes more; repeat." https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.20329583

"One concept that creates misunderstanding is “scientific consensus.” It’s time to stop using this shorthand and make clear what it really means."
It's confusing because encountered in as different applications we see, "consensus" is a hazardously ambigous term. A poor choice for conveying what we intend to say in this context.
English is rich. There's an exact term for communicating this type of agreement: "consilience."

issue 19 of the #Consilience is out and it's about #insects !
Consilience is an online journal exploring art and Science, focusing on illustration and poetry

Unpopular opinion...her 2008 performance of "Photograph", joined by Def Leppard, was peak Taylor Swift.
Yes: sixteen years ago. It was on CMT CROSSROADS (not super easy to find online).
Ms. Swift not being a natural fit for the material is what made it great, honestly.
Every genre, every cohort, every tribe, every category, every faction, everywhere, ought to have some sort of "crossroads" program.

Our latest weekly #ClimateResearch roundup includes a sweet example of #consilience:
"Transition from positive to negative indirect CO2 effects on the vegetation carbon uptake," Chen et al.
If we observed primary productivity behaving this way out of the blue, we'd want to know why, we'd look for why and we'd end up with an explanation for why-- via #AtmosphericGeochemistry.
Increasing CO2 concentration manifests by multiple independent paths-- in mutual agreement.

This paper a perfect example of #consilience !

"In a very literal sense, heavy users of social media are being behaviorally entrained to engage disproportionately in bad faith communication."
"Avoiding social catastrophe will require the deployment of highly skilled, non-naive good faith communication."
Excellent reading opportunity for this rainy weekend. #ConsilienceProject #BadFaith #Consilience

Oh, nice! Hab mal eine Artikelserie im HedgeDoc verlinkt, das die "Welche Forschung gibt es?"-Frage mitbeantwortet 🙂 #ConsilienceProject #Consilience

Are there any examples of #consilience in #ml or #probability? Would love to read some papers if you had some
-
Normally wouldn't link any tweet but Annals of Botany really did a nice thread on our last #oaks paper (https://doi.org/10.1093/aob/mcad032). Pure applied #consilience in science: NGS SNP #phylogeny, FBD dating using a score of #fossils, and chipping in some (cleaned) #GBIF distribution data for #biome and #climate zone mapping.

@shannonmattern Is *thick-time* a thing, an object of measure, a utilizable frame? Could it be applied to these structures of time embrasure, of future description, mutations, events and transmutations? I see you as an innovator in the juggling of temporalities, of time-presence consilience. Spitballing. Thanks!

@Mizmar I'm sure I can find something, if we can narrow down what I'm looking for. Something specific?
To be clear, there is no new model being postulated here, these are just a few empirical facts about the many problems for which we have only complicated toy models for, applicable only in highly simplified, controlled contexts. A pre-Copernican redux of layered #epicycles.
The division of #physics into incommensurable branches is arguably necessary in the early stages of #theory building competition, but after many decades, it's time to take off the training wheels, and expect some #consilience & refinement.

William #Whewell's notion of #Consilience is often mentioned in this connection. It was later picked up by #EOWilson.
#Peirce's #Pragmatism takes some pains to side-step the superficial dichotomy between #Objectivism or #Foundationalism and #Coherentism or #Consensualism.
Susan #Haack, for instance, tries to integrate them in her concept of #Foundherentism.
Well, that's enough isms for one day ...

I’m not sure if Sam is on Mastodon or the Fediverse more widely, but he is a wonderful poet who runs the journal “Consilience” which is about bringing together science and the arts (first link below). He also has a great podcast in the same vein called “The Poetry of Science” (available on all good podcast services) and the associated blog (second link below).

Ok, that’s enough fangirling from me. Just wanted to share the love.

@jquillin
It's also important that we make efforts toward beneficial #consilience when we analyze our #systems.At one extreme, we see how severe controls like #monopoly & #patents lead to #externalities like #inequality & #RegulatoryCapture (where they manipulate laws intended to counter these).
At the other end, in more #decentralized industries like Fashion, where clothes are too common to issue patents on, we see unchecked #competition often produces a lack of #coordination and #MarketFailure in the form of senseless overproduction going straight to landfills.
Neither are #sustainable. Both forms can be changed when #workers remember they have the majority, and can unite as #consumers to leverage their spending, as well as #collective #SocialMedia presence to affect change.

#introduction
Hi, I'm Peter - by day I'm a #Sciartist, developing different types of #Science and #Art #Visualizations using #GameEngines #Fulldome #XR. I have a PhD in #ComputationalGeophysics, specialising in #DataVisualization, and another in #Semiotics and #ArtHistory. I'm fascinated by #Antarctica #Wilderness #DigitalHeritage and worried about #ClimateChange, so I try and make work that explores these to aid understanding. I've made #Fulldome movies about #DarkMatter and #AboriginalSonglines, and experiment with novel types of #ImmersiveMedia and #HCI for #Museum and #GLAM applications. By night my magpie interests range across #Astrodon to #ml and #CognitiveNeuroscience, #Mathstodon #Consilience #Literature #Philosophy - I read a lot. When I have a free moment, I'm trying to builld an #OffGrid home. Well OK, #shack :)
I'll approve follows if I can get an idea of who you are from your #introduction. I'd like friendly polite quality in my feed, not random quantity. That seems to be one of the best things about #mastodon! #lists! -
