چکیده
Scientists rely on knowledge of error both in designing experiments and in interpreting results. I profile here the epistemic role of informal catalogs of past mistakes, or error repertoires (Mayo 1996). How do scientists develop and use such repertoires and install them in the infrastructure of science? Memory of error, I claim, is critical to progress in science. The road to wisdom?—Well, it's plain and simple to express: Err and err and err again but less and less and less. —Piet Hein You can tell a good mechanic by what he knows— not about how a car runs, but about how it doesn't run.
