Don't think too admiringly about science though. Or do so, if you want to. That's not upto me. I don't take it too seriously (although it's consequenc...

The problem with reproducibility though is that it excludes many forms of science. It's a constraining methodological feature imposed on scientific kn...

I'm not that accurate. It brings misery only.
October 24, 2021 at 14:57
An effort for what?
October 24, 2021 at 14:54
Not even? What do you meaning? I am able, but made a mistake. As simple as that.
October 24, 2021 at 14:51
Yes. Luckily there are bright minds like yours to correct mine! Thanks!
October 24, 2021 at 14:47
So where am I distorting your position? Maybe I'm distorting your discussion here. Sic. Dunno. But I know that pro-vaxers lack this comprehension too.
October 24, 2021 at 14:23
Distorting your "position"? I haven't got the faintest idea where you stand. I merely said that both pro- and anti- science rethorics are helpfull. As...

Why not? A tesseract can be viewed from all angles. Look at Dali's 3d view on it. The 3d part can be viewed from all angles and hence the full 4d one.
October 24, 2021 at 13:34
Can the Life-Form be visualized? You have a 4d cube in mind? Is the Life-Form a tesseract, or just a means for tesseract-life to live? Why do you writ...

Let's look at this. You think the universe is a lifeform. We are obviously part of it. How are we represented?
October 24, 2021 at 13:20
I wished it was. We could have a laugh at least. Your seriousness is depressing though. If you only had read what I wrote... I wrote that I would cont...
October 24, 2021 at 13:14
I'M SAYING THAT TOO! Just read. It's as unhelpfull as pro-science rhetoric.
October 24, 2021 at 13:09
Djezus man, relax! I didn't know you are that serious! Why you think I suffer? From your weird view maybe, yes! It reminds me somehow of David Bohm's ...
October 24, 2021 at 13:06
You think pro-science rethoric is usefull? Both the pro- ant anti- are as unhelpfull as can be. The scientific approach to Covid19, how the disease ca...
October 24, 2021 at 12:46
Are you serious, or on mushrooms? Though the same can be asked to defenders of a physics theory of everything...
October 24, 2021 at 12:19
Why should science be repeatable? Reproducible, to use a more experimental approach? God help us if this is really the case!
October 24, 2021 at 08:58
Was this John Hunter the first American serial killer? Or wasn't he American? Or is it still Starkweather, walking happily around in his badlands with...
October 24, 2021 at 08:33
I don't address that claim is true or not, that's another part of the propaganda. The search for so-called Truth... Aaaah, yes. The Truth. How much su...

Where is it written that the philosophy here should be western? It's called the philosophy forum. Not the western philosophy forum.
October 24, 2021 at 01:39
Where the funky (my spelling aid corrected...) did that thread on philosophical poems walk to? Wanted to comment on the poetic universe.

Didn't good old Lao do the same? Reality is simple though: 1962 Ferrari 330 TRI / LM Testa Rossa
October 24, 2021 at 01:09
You mean insofar money-making is involved?
October 24, 2021 at 00:55
You seem to overlook here that the constant is no rational number.
October 24, 2021 at 00:50
Now that sounds even more dramatic. In the litteral sense. The usual propaganda babble in favor of the scientists claiming a way of thinking and actin...
October 24, 2021 at 00:22
The little we know? Mankind has never gathered that much knowledge in it's entire history! The urge for endless knowledge searching reigns Supreme on ...
October 23, 2021 at 23:40
I think you mean beyond capability. Though capapability sounds nice too! Gay papa, bility? :smile:
October 23, 2021 at 23:32
Thanks! Another example is the formation of cosmological structures by gravity. The interacting field here is mediated by gravitons (instead of the ph...

If I had read this poem last night it would have been even better! After I came back from a solitary nightwalk with my dog. There was absolutely no wh...
October 23, 2021 at 13:50
If you mean by "logic" "problem solving" then I don't see why it's evil or bad. Though people can use it in a bad way. I have had discussions with phy...
October 23, 2021 at 13:29
Hi Pop. So you are interested in the relation between mass-energy itself or in the relation between the both and information? I guess the last althoug...
October 23, 2021 at 11:20
You mean sitting behind the computer all day or taking the dog for a walk? What on Earth is a "thinking entity"? You mean people or animals?
October 23, 2021 at 09:02
Ha, good one! My second loud laugh this morning. And behold! I woke my wife. Because of you! Damned... :smile:
October 23, 2021 at 08:51
Which was? Sorry, I just woke up! Nice last comment. Gave me an early laugh! :smile: Ah there is more! Sorry, just woke up! What's the big deal with s...
October 23, 2021 at 08:40
Your poems lack humans. They are highly romantic and written nicely in metric, rhyme and use of romantic imagery, like in the poem about the loveaffai...
October 23, 2021 at 08:34
If you ask so, then we can settle on them. Fasten your seatbelts though for some heavy destructive interference can be expected. Which basically answe...
October 23, 2021 at 01:33
That's undeniably true! The interaction (by massless potential energy gauge fields like the photon field) takes care of the formation of the massive m...
October 22, 2021 at 23:43
I can remember that Mandelbrot said in an interview that his realization of the set named after him (stemming from the iterations in the complex field...
October 22, 2021 at 23:28
Interaction (gauge spin 1 or 2 fields) is necessary to let information form, embedded in matter (spin 1/2) fields. The difference between these two is...

They can't be represented by a formal math system, whatever the system. Just like the line that can't be represented by a math expression has no corre...

I'm not sure about Brad, and coming to think about neither about Einstein. Of course they belong to mankind. Though coming to think about it... No, se...
October 22, 2021 at 14:56
Of course. No doubt about that. It is their mathematical formulation and their abstraction in the mathematical realm (a mathematical sphere is a diffe...
October 22, 2021 at 12:54
I don't say there is a fault in logic. If people wanna think logically, why not? If they wanna arrange their lives accordingly, why not? But if this w...
October 22, 2021 at 11:09
They are. But part of reality. Of course, logic perse does no harm. But logic and "search for truth" relentlessly pursuited by scientists (who indeed ...
October 22, 2021 at 10:47
Don't take derivation litterally, as if physical structures posses mathematical structures. A circular structure doesn't possess a math formula for a ...
October 22, 2021 at 10:32
Obviously invented and projected upon physical reality. It's reasonable that math is effective. Math is derived from structures in the physical world.

Such a wavefunction does not exist. Dirac deltas are not eigenfunctions. They are distributions.
October 22, 2021 at 09:38
"Human societies", like "a country", are abstract concepts and can as such not be good or bad. A country or society has no mind of its own. Nor has a ...
