There's absolutely no shortage of opportunities to produce 'new knowledge' in the humanities; vast swathes of medieval, early modern and modern texts remain untranscribed, unedited, untranslated. The failure to take these opportunities is partly a skills issue; (cont.)
The problem is that (almost) no one, at least in the humanities, is able to produce ‘new knowledge’ at anything like the rate expected. So scholars grasp at faddish trends and voguish theories to publish books that seem exciting in the moment but have no enduring value.
Wanted to follow up on this one. Texas A&M Police were unable to comment on whether this individual is okay nor not. I certainly hope this person is recovering well! But they were able to confirm that the sandwich in question was a "pimento cheese" sandwich.

Short explanation of the physics Nobel Prize 2025 In classical mechanics you can know where a particle is and its momentum at the same time. In Quantum mechanics you can't. All information is in the wavefunction. Even if a particle is trapped, part of the wavefunction.. 🧵1/7
