A pragmatic solution to Ostertag’s puzzle
Gary Ostertag (Philos Stud 146:249–267, 2009) has presented a new puzzle for Russellianism about belief reports. He argues that Russellians do not have the resources to solve this puzzle in terms of pragmatic phenomena. I argue to the contrary that the puzzle can be solved according to Nathan Salmon’s (Frege’s puzzle, 1986) pragmatic account of belief reports, provided that the account is prope...

The concept of distributed leadership incorporates inclusivity, collectiveness and collaboration, with the result that...
متن کاملA New Solution to the Puzzle of Simplicity
Explaining the connection, if any, between simplicity and truth is among the deepest problems facing the philosophy of science, statistics, and machine learning. Say that an efficient truth-finding method minimizes worst-case costs en route to converging to the true answer to a theory choice problem. Let the costs considered include the number of times a false answer is selected, the number of ...
متن کاملHippocalcin: A New Solution to an Old Puzzle
In hippocampal pyramidal neurons, calcium entry following an action potential burst results in a slow afterhyperpolarization (sAHP) that critically regulates subsequent excitability. Although this potassium current was described two decades ago, the mechanism whereby the rise in intracellular calcium generates the sAHP was, until now, not known. In this issue of Neuron, Tzingounis et al. now sh...
متن کاملGravity with Gravitas: A Solution to the Border Puzzle
Gravity equations have been widely used to infer trade ow effects of various institutional arrangements. We show that estimated gravity equations do not have a theoretical foundation. This implies both that estimation suffers from omitted variables bias and that comparative statics analysis is unfounded. We develop a method that (i) consistently and ef ciently estimates a theoretical gravity...
