Your Definition
The idea that even raw facts are not simply [discovered], but are shaped by the theories, tools, and questions that produce them. A fact is a carefully carved slice of reality, and the carving tools are our interests, [technologies], and [linguistic] categories. The fact "the patient has a fever of 102°F" is constructed by the concept of "fever," the Fahrenheit scale, and the reliability of the thermometer. Change any of those, and you get a different fact. Facts are theory-laden.
