  3. Do wasps engage in transitive reasoning? — scientists take a look (via Wes Hansen)
  4. “The goal of the philosophical novella should be to show that ideas are alive and motivating features of people’s lives” — an interview with philosopher and novelist Matthew McKeever (Oslo)
  5. Trans women, penis panics, sociology, metaphysics, and the younger generation — discussed by Barry Lam (Vassar), Holly Lawford-Smith (Melbourne), Robin Dembroff (Yale), and others in the latest episode of Hi-Phi Nation
  6. The human experience of time — Philosophers Keith Ansell-Pearson (Warwick), Emily Thomas (Durham), & Mark Sinclair (Roehampton) discuss ideas of Henri Bergson on the BBC
  7. Use your own school’s login when you’re at or near other schools for free wifi access — there’s a good chance your school is a part of the eduroam network (via Samantha Brennan)

Mini-Heap posts appear when 7 or so new items accumulate in the Heap of Links, the ever-growing collection of items from around the web that may be of interest to philosophers.

The Heap of Links consists partly of suggestions from readers; if you find something online that you think would be of interest to the philosophical community, please send it in for consideration for the Heap. Thanks!
