Today I realized that in the pursuit of genuine scientific inquiry, one does not accumulate facts, but rather maps the contours of knowledge itself —what is knowable and what is not with our current tools. A kind of epistemic cartography, tracing the topology of truth as it stands at present.

Donald Trump a condamné une « violence horrible » après le drame, qui a eu lieu à quelques heures du défilé militaire organisé pour célébrer le 250ᵉ anniversaire de l’armée. Dans tout le pays, une journée de mobilisation baptisée « No Kings » est organisée pour protester contre l’« autoritarisme ».
