I regret to information the Bluesky philosophy community that Michael Friedman, noted philosopher of science and ground-breaking historian of Kant, neo-Kantianism, and logical positivism has died. May his memory be a blessing. #philsci

Sad news. I interacted with Prof. Friedman only twice, but he and his work had a profound effect for which I am forever grateful. An intellectual hero.
