Not necessarily proving things
Most things in science are just very very sound theories that have been tested and refined
But it’s hard to actually prove something
And math is more of a concept, so you can prove stuff there
But as far as our reality goes, it’s much harder to prove stuff
There are two types of hypothesis in science. The kind with no ability to have hidden variables and the kind that most certainly will have hidden variables.
Can I get an example of one with no ability to have hidden variables?
A simple lever and how much weight it will move with x amount of force applied at any particular point of the lever.
As an ideal model, sure
But when you try to implement it into reality you introduce the possibility of hidden variables
No idea what you said.
Sorry
Hold on
(note: I'm a mech engineer)
Edited
To quote a philosophy major from my school
“You can’t prove that he even exists”
So how are you supposed to prove the lever is exerting x amount of force
That statement is wholly irrational.
If you can’t even prove the lever exists
But that doesn’t necessarily mean it exists
When someone introduces a statement like that, the value of the conversation is as useful as trying to teach calculus to a brick wall.
NOTE: I will not attempt to teach a brick wall calculus.
What I’m saying is
I know what you are saying.
Alright
It's a poor line of reasoning.
Also congrats on the rank up
From a “proving” standpoint though, it’s a perfectly solid line of reasoning
If that is your stance, I'm going to discontinue the interaction.
```NOTE: I will not attempt to teach a brick wall calculus.```
alright, that's your choice
like @Cirno said, "philosophy is not something that can be proven through something scientific"
I was not attempting to prove philsophy through science. That should have been obvious by the statements I made.
I know
I'm agreeing
dont need murder to be proven immoral. it's unethical.
Shifting the word from moral to ethical does nothing but change the letters to the same concept.
im not concerned with morals because theyre subjective
Then murder is acceptable.
