Ehud<p>Terrific talk by <a class="mention" href="https://bsky.app/profile/msuarez.bsky.social" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@msuarez.bsky.social</a> at our institute about propensities and probability. Not sure I see how he makes us <a class="hashtag" href="https://bsky.app/search?q=%23philbio" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#philbio</a> people stop quarreling about fitness though…</p>

Ehud<p>My 80/20 summary of my <a href="https://bsky.app/search?q=%23philbio" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#philbio</a> seminar invented today on the fly: 80% was understanding Lewontin’s triad. 20% was understanding that the processes are not quasi-independent. <a href="https://bsky.app/search?q=%23evodevo" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#evodevo</a> <a href="https://bsky.app/search?q=%23evolution" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#evolution</a></p>

Ehud<p>What I most like so far in Evolution Evolving is that the book is dedicated to the right people. <a href="https://bsky.app/search?q=%23philbio" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#philbio</a></p>
Ehud<p>If you assign good readings, students always find the last view they read as totally convincing. <a href="https://bsky.app/search?q=%23philbio" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#philbio</a> <a href="https://bsky.app/search?q=%23philsci" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#philsci</a></p>
Ehud<p>Not sure if it’s too on the nose, but I’m ending this year’s <a href="https://bsky.app/search?q=%23philbio" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#philbio</a> seminar, which is all about conceptual analysis of natural selection, with having the students watch <a class="mention" href="https://bsky.app/profile/kevinlala.bsky.social" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@kevinlala.bsky.social</a> talk about Evolution Evolving.</p>
Ehud<p>To my great horror some of my students have become convinced that the statisticalist interpretation of natural selection is correct. <a href="https://bsky.app/search?q=%23philbio" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#philbio</a></p>
MathildeTahar<p>Hey ! I have a new paper I'm willing to submit. I am still working on it. But I'd be happy to have some feedback before the final version ! I think it need improvements !
