Saluons la très ancienne tradition de vigilance du Figaro (ici en mai 1933) sur les bons et les mauvais scientifiques.
Le statut garanti à vie et l'entre-soi dans la distribution des postes et des financements encouragent le pantouflage et favorisent le militantisme. → l.lefigaro.fr/wEz

In the 1940s, Subrahmanyan Chandrasekhar was committed to his teaching role at the University of Chicago, despite being based at the Yerkes Observatory. Each week, he traveled 80 miles to teach a special course attended by only two students. The students were Tsung-Dao Lee and Chen-Ning Yang. They proved their mentor's faith was well-placed when they both won the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1957, years before Chandrasekhar received the same honor in 1983. Remarkably, this course went down in history as the only one where every attendee received a Nobel Prize, underscoring the extraordinary impact of Chandrasekhar's dedication and teaching. 📷 AIP Emilio Segrè Visual Archives, Physics Today Collection

"Today I wouldn't get an academic job. It's as simple as that. I don't think I would be regarded as productive enough." Nobel Laureate Peter Higgs explains how the focus on quantified indicators (number of publications, citations) harms scientific progress.

This summer, @NilChristopher and I traveled to Sunguvarchatram, India, to find out how Foxconn prepared for the upcoming launch of iPhone 15. This supply chain shift brought Chinese and Indian workers together in an unlikely way 🧵 restofworld.org/2023/foxconn… via @restofworld

Certains livres ont une puissance destinale : la lecture à dix-sept ans de « Patience dans l’Azur » a changé le cours de mon existence. Plus tard, Hubert Reeves, maître pédagogue, est devenu un ami. Sa vie se prolonge désormais hors d’elle-même. Qu’il repose en paix.
