[spsp-members] Software is ubiquitous, yet overlooked

[Alexandre Hocquet]

Dear SPSPers,

Four years ago, in pandemic times, colleagues (across many disciplines 
and including philosophers of science)  published a timely and relevant 
piece in Nature : "Five ways to ensure models serve society" and it is a 
post to this list that called my attention to that paper.

Today, as a sort of follow-up, we (philosophers of science and 
colleagues across many disciplines) are making a call for HPS/STS 
scholars (and also computational scientists themselves) to apprehend 
software beyond code to "ensure models serve society". The paper 
"Software is ubiquitous, yet overlooked" has just been released in 
Nature Computational Science as a call to engage with software in 
accounts of scientific practices.
