Factor Analysis sucks donkey balls.
>>17017027So you want a mathematical model that finds causes in psychology without any intertwined theoretical frameworks? You know how difficult that is? Lmfao factor analysis and regression work…
>>17017363Shut up fajit
i hate aischizos so much it's unreal
>>17017733I want a model that prefers to find no causes over finding made up causes, maybe that's crazy but some say that's what separates science from say astrology>>17017738fuck of faget

So help me understand this >Math is foundations of sciences and stem >But foundations of math is bunch of statements we don't prove to be true and basically said yeah they're true >Then we prove stuff by using these statements that haven't been proven themselves This makes no sense
Do you guys need a little time to come to terms with the grieving process? Maybe a little time to fabricate a better Hydra game?

>>17020129Predictive power literally does have something to do with things being true, it's "hey the thing my theory predicted turned out to be true"
>>17020131"What predictions does it make?"Picrel^^
>>17016732>>Then we prove stuff by using these statements that haven't been proven themselvesYes, they are only true if you assume the axioms are true, you can assume all of them are false, no one is preventing you to.

Any arguments against solar energy?
>>17013548
>>17014867In my jurisdiction it's just the power lobby. No matter what, you need the grid operator to move the power from you to the consumer. Solar power at utility scales is a losing proposition because of overproduction (too much energy because of too many solar panels). Private scales are always a good idea because you never get penalized for overproduction and you can cut your power bill in half or more. The big issue is that the way the market is structured, solar gets paid at solar prices regardless of battery storage, so no one builds battery storage even if it's cost effective (VRFBs are, for the record). This is very specific to my local context, which is historically (and persistently) retarded.For your home, it is never a bad idea to get solar and LFP battery storage, unless you live in alaska or something.

I'm too stupid to understand the debate around consciousness, but as far as I understand, physicalists are losing and we may have souls. Is this correct?
>>17020141That's fine. You need consciousness to understand.
>>17019900OP here. I still don't get it, but physicalism sounds more possible now.
>>17019900There is no feedback on ourselves, so we are a stable entity outside of it cause.
>>17019900>we may have souls.The way I think of it is materialism is just one possibility out of infinite. Something being out there is infinite possibilities. So why would I gamble on one out of infinity?

you can imagine the secant as rotating around the objective complex unit circle, at any point, the limit of that point; the tangent, is only falsifiable in that tangent's rotating secant bounds

Now what? I never really had any faith in dark matter/energy. They could never define what it was or how it was causing the expansion of the universe or anything else about it really...https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cqLypHXK-bs
>>17017423Lol no it isn't. And he has the order reversed. Dark matter came first. A Catholic priest invented the big bang theory based on the story of creation in the bible to explain cosmological red shift and then everyone pretended like it was so fucking genius. Problem is it's not true and it doesn't match the findings of the universe. So when you try to cram the universe into a big bang theory you have to explain why the universe isn't working the way that you observe it to be. The first iteration of this caused dark matter to be theorized. But of course if you have enough dark matter to make the universe make sense compared to the observations of it now it no longer works again so now you have to add dark energy, by the end you get an equation that makes no fucking sense and a worldview where 96% of the universe is bullshit. The solution to this, of course, is that the big bang theory is bullshit. But it's sacred in cosmology so nobody's allowed to question it.
>>17017428nigger I am not talking about the big bang "theory", which is hardly a theory at all

How to distinguish between real papers and bullshit papers? I never know if what I'm reading is believable or written by a crackpot>inb4 learn first and then if the paper matches with what you learn then it's veridicbut I need to learn from somewhere no? if I knew everything, I wouldn't need to read papers
>>17016278I had a physics professor who said that before going to a surgery, she'd read several papers about the procedure to learn about her oddsbut how can she do that if she knows physics but doesn't know medicine?
>>17016224You read multiple papers until you have enough understanding on the subject to discern what is plausible and what isn't, if you still can't tell research that topic specifically or attempt to replicate some of their findings.If you can't do that then don't worry it's totally irrelevant if you "believe" in any paper your opinion won't matter anyways.
>>17016224There is no difference, science is science fiction nowadays.
>>17016224>How to distinguish between real papers and bullshit papersThe thinly veiled secret is that almost everything is bullshit based on fake data, no one ever goes back to replicate a study or they will always use info that support their bias, and the moment somebody finds something wrong it's decades too late.The more somebody references others the more likely it is that the data is polluted, so you can only trust studies made first hand or heavily tested, and bad news, you and your peers (sometimes) are the only ones that you can trust with that. If you were to make a meta analysis made of thousands of studies with thousands of data how much would you replicate and verify? you wouldn't test or verify said data, it doesn't help you get closer to the truth, a bigger collection of garbage in doesn't stop it from getting garbage out, but it is helpful for lying with statistics as it helps you be able to cherrypick.take >>17016290, in that case it is easy to tell it is bad paper because you can see the AI, but what can you do when you have to corroborate something based on it? nobody has done it before and nobody will, what if somebody else makes their research using >>17016290 among others ? will you also verify all the papers that made that one new paper? how much influence did it have on that new paper? Nobody can tell.So what is the best you can do? If it is for the truth, test everything with as much skill as you are able, otherwise it is a problem for somebody else some decades ahead to solve, and only when it becomes a problem for them.Contrary to what some could believe, there is always a bigger bias to publish something that can't be tested than something that is truthful

>>17002979Not a creationist but this isn't actually proof against creationism, your just stating that similar creatures have similar DNA which a creationist would have no problem with. What a creationist would have a problem with is dissimilar creatures having similar dna because of common ancestry, like whales being mammals and having small useless feet hidden inside them.
