This is why the formula is important

Both sides were arguing blatantly without evidence, just opinions

Authority evidence?

No

The picture was taken by a person in the argument

The formula can be derived by anyone

No authority involved

I wasn't talking about that

> Both sides were arguing blatantly without evidence, just opinions
@curious guy

If I say something that a physician said. Than I have the authority advantage/argument

Well that depends on the credibility of the physician, and whether the statement is backed up by evidence

Then the earth is a globe. A lot of physicians (probably all) agree

Also, what I meant by evidence in my first statement was that both sides of the arguement were making claims about whether or not the horizon should curve without using a formula

Ok, lets derive the formula

Btw a physician is a doctor, you probably mean physicist. And them agreeing alone is not sufficient, what have they done to gain credibility? And what is the evidence to their claim?

Lol yes I mean them

> Btw a physician is a doctor, you probably mean physicist. And them agreeing alone is not sufficient, what have they done to gain credibility? And what is the evidence to their claim?
@curious guy you know what he meant

English isn't my mother language

> Well that depends on the credibility of the physician, and whether the statement is backed up by evidence
@curious guy lol

What? @rAven

I mean that it’s clear by context what @CatataFish meant

@pablochanches I already have derived it, and at 10 meters height above sea level and 80° horizontal AOV, the angular drop in the appearance of the horizon due to it's curvature should be 0.0237°, or 1/20th the angular size of the moon, basically 1-5 pixels if generous, so no, the curvature of the horizon should not be visible in compressed images of the horizon at low altitude

He is correcting him in a small mistake, that he made too @rAven

@curious guy Nice

> He is correcting him in a small mistake, that he made too @rAven
@pablochanches oh did I make that mistake? Could you point me to it?

> Well that depends on the credibility of the physician, and whether the statement is backed up by evidence
@curious guy

Wait

That one wasn't clear in context

> Well that depends on the credibility of the physician, and whether the statement is backed up by evidence
@curious guy here

In a medical topic that statement is still valid, I assumed you were talking about evolution

Why would I mention physicists if he's talking about physicians?

MOVE THIS TO CIVIL DEBATE CHANNEL

thanks

final warning

Ok

What's the civil debate channel for? Miscellaneous topics?

It's about the earth??

Sorry

nw

Cata. found the curve yet?

???
