- (born November 25, 1958)[1] is an American historian of science. She became Professor of the History of Science and Affiliated Professor of Earth and Planetary Sciences at Harvard University in 2013, after 15 years as Professor of History and Science Studies at the University of California, San Diego.[2] She has worked on studies of geophysics, environmental issues such as global warming, and the history of science. In 2010, Oreskes co-authored Merchants of Doubt which identified some parallels between the climate change debate and earlier public controversies.[3]

- I think that this may be important and offers insight into how science (high-dimensional, physei-focused) reaches consensus: Consistently Eventual
- Eventual consistency occurs when the value for something is replicated in more than one place, and there is a protocol for these replicas converging. Changes to one or more of the replicas can be done independently, and they will propagate and converge.

- Made some good progress on the poster
- Good discussion with Aaron about the trajectory from the theory/simulation to the building maps from data in the wild. To a degree, it’s a hail-Mary pass. If it works, great – go back in to fill in the gaps. If it doesn’t progress more steadily from the theory through LSTM to JuryRoom.
