In 2005, John Ioannidis published an earth-shaking article titled “Why Most Published Research Findings Are False”. It outlined the fact that most empirical findings in science failed to be replicated, meaning that they are likely the product of experimental settings or statistical fluctuations and do…

Humans integrate cultural expectations through their social interactions, but can only do so by recreating the meaning of their experience from their own viewpoint.

However, philosophy (and especially the philosophy of science) struggle to capture the…

Unlike simpler physical system, biological and cognitive systems are not simply defined by their boundary conditions and their basic physical structure. They capture ambient energy gradients (sunlight, thermal sources, chemical potential within other biological systems…) and canalize them into continuously (re)constructing their own organization. This…
