The project includes cases such as exoplanet #K218b, phosphine on #Venus, Tabby's Star, #Oumuamua, and #3IATLAS. Each video is currently being coded in terms of risk and benefit narratives, sources, science actors and evaluations, and frames of (un)certainty.
The group is using computational methods to analyze thousands of user comments on public videos to investigate reactions to discovery in terms of sentiment and other aspects.

"All knowledge is local" by Geoffrey C. Bowker
https://ics.uci.edu/~gbowker/Pages%20from%20LC_Journal_Issue2_2010-bowker.pdf
"to the extent that knowledge can be shown to have a very wide range, this can only be done in a highly localized environment, one about which you can say ‘all other things being equal’"

"What is the relationship of science and technology to human history, and how have Marxists conceptualized this problematic within historical materialism? The work of Boris Hessen represents one of the most sophisticated attempts to apply a materialist analysis to the history of science—specifically, how the economic needs of early capitalism influenced what we now think of as modern science and the Scientific Revolution. In this blog, I explore how Hessen pursues his analysis in his seminal essay “The Social and Economic Roots of Newton’s Principia” (henceforth referred to as “Newton’s Roots”).
While Hessen did not develop the first Marxist analysis of science, Hessen’s approach was one of the first truly systematic attempts. Moreover, his work helps us see past the often oversimplified division between “Western Marxism” and Soviet thought, revealing a productive tension in international Marxism through attempts to apply historical materialism in understanding science, technology, and nature under capitalist society.
In the same vein, Henryk Grossman makes the connection between science and capitalist society explicit in his work with the Institute of Social Research (Institut für Sozialforschung, or IfS)—several of Grossmann’s articles were published in the IfS’s journal Zeitschrift für Sozialforschung (ZfS). Grossmann was in fact one of the first defenders of Hessen’s work against critics such as George. N. Clark, Richard S. Westfall, etc. as these critics fundamentally misunderstood Hessen’s theses, and, by extension, Grossmann’s own formulation of the relation between science and capitalist society. While both reached similar conclusions independently, and Grossmann’s work is introduced at points, I focus on Hessen’s formulation here."

I've asked a version of this question before, maybe, but here goes: favorite work that either discusses interpretive orientation as method/orientation, or is e.g. of interpretive scholarship that also reflects on interpretive aspect? Article or chapter length preferred. Thanks!
@rpmik yeah, I'm actually looking at taking Alaska out of Santa Rosa to Seattle. That would be easier for me anyway (since I'm in Petaluma). Looks like there's 2 nonstops a day...
Now I don't suppose there's a SMART train station near enough to that airport... 👀

Similar widespread ignorance of #history of #technology among technologists, even of one's own field, infuriated me when I was doing engineer things in product development in the late 00's.
I saw it lead to 1) avoidable mistakes and 2) pernicious beliefs of superiority. 1/
