:up: Thank you for these posts. Cornford's epochal work still had shadows of Kant, especially in being mindful of the unknowable noumenal universe and...
The problem is not with the mathematical physics of quarks but with the licentious use of exist and know which should not be allowed to seep into phys...
Yes, according to my personal decree of morality, subject to revision but absolute for each judgment of course. Like the baseball umpire's call of bal...
Although I don't think you can demonstrate either a universal natural law of animal behavior nor that the laws in your country are the same as in mine...
Fitting regular hexagons together in a circle makes 6 hexagons plus 1 more emergent in the middle making 7 hexagons. But on the surface of a soccer ba...
Mathematical probabilities are calculated. Empirical probabilities can at times be theoretically estimated based on looking at the actual world. Proba...
With AI the issue of creativity pokes a hole in the narrative of an extreme material-mind dichotomy. The intelligence of the machines improve graduall...
Statistically speaking, All sheep are black (based on a sample of 1 of course) All people have straight black hair Shakespeare is alive and well in Ch...
Creativity is just a word for a platonic abstraction of a mind process we share with all living animals of bringing to action or to words hidden meani...
Creation is a struggle to bring to light ideas that might emerge from the formless depths of one's mind. Some ideas are merely new rearrangement of cu...
According to the maps, the Zaporizhzhia high dam which has a hydroelectric plant and supplies water to Crimea is now in the Ukrainian controlled area....
In other news, A surprisingly near black hole about 10 times more massive than our Sun has been found just 1,560 light-years from Earth, which is abou...
Scientists are sometimes quick to leap to hyperbole when singing the praises of their megabucks projects even if results can only be seen in comparati...
The multiple universe models are driven by mathematical logic as extensions of cosmological theories. The parameters of those theories turn out to be ...
There is a reality for each and every model, as implied and expressed by the models. Not the other way around. Choosing to call one of these realities...
In February, Putin met with Xi in Beijing. Now, Xi will meet Putin somewhere in Central Asia just a month before Xi is poised to cement his place as t...
May not be as hot as airport infrared body images :gasp: but this link gets into how they might be spotting the earliest high-redshift galaxies with n...
With circular reasoning. Perhaps a label for endless but not quite infinite in a physical sense ? For physics, isn't that the driving force behind qua...
Yes. Realism demands that objects have fixed properties just so lack of contradiction can distinguish truth from falsity. This is etched in stone. App...
Analytic-synthetic judgment comes with logical difference. Snow is black shocks because it is contradictory to white and thus supposedly logically imp...
How is this an analytic proposition? Because if it is taken to be analytic then it is circular at best and shows nothing. However, if it is synthetic ...
I gather most of us confuse the higher moral expectations of Scandinavians with our own looser standards? If Sanna Marin is ousted as PM would you thi...
Narratives are spawned from current culture, that of the many, for simple widely acceptable public Wittgensteinian consumption, else from private refl...
Absurd, isn't it? Perhaps now she will get the paparazzi following she deserves for having put Finland on the map again. Fame and notoriety are the sa...
Webb telescope reveals unpredicted bounty of bright galaxies in early universe "if the profusion of early galaxies is real, astronomers may have to fu...
It was a weird choice of name to begin with, like renaming a scenic bridge after a local politician's father including the first and last name. Cyclop...
JWST’s “Shrodinger’s Galaxy Candidate” Has Astronomers Very Puzzled CEERS-1749 is either the earliest and most distant galaxy ever seen by a long way,...
Maybe we should expect little green intelligent robots built for the longevity of space voyages but who would come without superfluous morality chips....
Or would it be more likely that they come to exploit whatever they can find here? Somehow they will have achieved technology that we can only dream up...
is a slippery slope. Many physicists and philosophers deny that psychology is a science by either physicists' or philosophers' standard, or for that m...
.. Whether particulars are momentary or fixed can be seen as the key difference between Plato's and Aristotle's philosophy. For Plato, particulars par...
I am, but I'm not so sure about you. This universe is in motion but there could be others. All is physically connected but in a limited way. Although ...
