that wouldn't mean I hated you 😄

2018-01-28 22:26:53 UTC  

Yeah. lol

2018-01-28 22:27:03 UTC  

because you know, I'm able to separate hate from disagreement

2018-01-28 22:27:14 UTC  

Ur all stupid and ignorant for not agreeing with me
JUST LOOK AT THE SCIENCE YOU IDIOTS

2018-01-28 22:27:17 UTC  

taylor swift gets bullied for not openly stating her political values, and thats WEIRD as shit to me

2018-01-28 22:27:28 UTC  

I know. lol

2018-01-28 22:27:38 UTC  

are you saying she gets hated on for NOT HAVING AN OPINION

2018-01-28 22:27:43 UTC  

lol

2018-01-28 22:27:44 UTC  

When people pull the science card it pisses me off

2018-01-28 22:27:56 UTC  

science changes every 5 years as we get new data..

2018-01-28 22:27:57 UTC  

Everyone on every side of the spectrum does it

2018-01-28 22:28:08 UTC  

Science isn't an entity

2018-01-28 22:28:12 UTC  

so while, yeah, science can be used, my god, it's not set in stone

2018-01-28 22:28:18 UTC  

@LotheronPrime Science changes every second as we get new data

2018-01-28 22:28:23 UTC  

exactly

2018-01-28 22:28:33 UTC  

We form theorems which contain a set of statements that back each other up inside of such theorem

2018-01-28 22:28:45 UTC  

@Christopher Yactayo So you're saying science is like wikipedia?

2018-01-28 22:28:54 UTC  

science =/= statistics though

2018-01-28 22:29:25 UTC  

too many people are quick to find a cause for ANY statistic, good or bad

2018-01-28 22:29:30 UTC  

They aren't always true in the sense of reality we just choose the theories that best match observations

2018-01-28 22:29:37 UTC  

its like the pseudoscientific health articles "eggs are bad for you mmkay"

2018-01-28 22:29:45 UTC  

because some people reacted bad to eggs

2018-01-28 22:29:46 UTC  

For example, special relativity vs traditional Newtonian physics

2018-01-28 22:30:36 UTC  

Techinically science is like wikipedia. Anyone can make a scientific study or display new data. Then that data is tested and retested to assure whether it is true or not. So yes, like wikipedia

2018-01-28 22:30:37 UTC  

Special relativity superseded Newtonian physics completely, giving a completely new set of supporting assertions and observations

2018-01-28 22:31:27 UTC  

Newtonian physics is great for the simple interactions we have on Earth with negligible difference in results to special relativity so they are both usefu

2018-01-28 22:32:08 UTC  

What I'm getting at is that you need to explicitly state which theory you are pulling from instead of just calling whatever shit you say "scientific fact"

2018-01-28 22:32:15 UTC  

Because you can't mix and match

2018-01-28 22:32:22 UTC  

or if you do

2018-01-28 22:32:27 UTC  

that's a new theorem entirely

2018-01-28 22:33:14 UTC  

a theorem is a hypothesis with a huge amount of supporting hypotheses surrounding it

2018-01-28 22:33:17 UTC  

which must stand up to scientific scrutiny before beingcited as example

2018-01-28 22:33:20 UTC  

and tend to stick

2018-01-28 22:33:35 UTC  

I mean we have thousands of University professors to figure this shit out, anything you come up with is most likely not new and has already been classified or thrown out

2018-01-28 22:34:12 UTC  

Peer review culture is the best we are going to get to a system that produces theories that match reality

2018-01-28 22:34:26 UTC  

(for humans at least)

2018-01-28 22:34:28 UTC  

I'm not so sure

2018-01-28 22:34:33 UTC  

on the surface, yes

2018-01-28 22:35:10 UTC  

but the entry to those peer reviewed articles can be low, and its jsut the same bubble that peer reviews each other, so very little scruteny

2018-01-28 22:35:48 UTC  

Well you might have objections to a lot of acedemia and I do too but they come from areas with very low peer reviews and citations

2018-01-28 22:36:05 UTC  

one study can be unanimously decided to have been executed to the best methods available, but its still only one study
