Taking Risks, With and Without Probabilities
Noûs, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Some hold that expected utility is too restrictive in the way it handles risk. Risk‐weighted expected utility is an alternative that allows decision‐makers to have a range of attitudes toward probabilistic risk. It holds that any attitude within this range is instrumentally rational, since these attitudes represent different, equally good ...

The standard view defines it as the probability that a vote changes the outcome assuming that each possible combination of votes is equiprobable.

Track Record Arguments in Normative Ethics
Pacific Philosophical Quarterly, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Track record arguments (TRAs) contend that it speaks in favor of an ethical theory (such as utilitarianism) if many of its past proponents had moral views that were controversial at their time but which we now consider to be clearly true (e.g., women's equal rights in 18th century Europe). This paper explores how to construct potentially sound

Challenges in Bringing Pangenome Research Into Breeding: A Case Study in Rice
Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Crop breeding has entered the pangenomics era, unlocking a far more comprehensive view of genetic diversity than a single reference genome can capture. In rice (Oryza sativa), a staple crop critical to global food security, the construction of pangenome resources has uncovered extensive structural variations (SVs), presence/absence variations (
