It's nice to be on top.
Physical chemistry is pretty much the master race of science.

How many papers have you published?
>x is applied y
t. Brainlet
Read P. W. Anderson's "More is Different" (1972).
>>8302062
>read this book because you have a wrong opinion
lmao
>>8302025
none.
why?
>>8302066
It's an article, I'm not going to explicate it here. Either read it if you care about truth seeking, or mindlessly throw your "beliefs" around like a moron instead.
>>8302087
What makes P. W. Anderson so special?
>>8302087
I've read lots of literature on what science is, what technology is, what a field is, etc.
The key mistake you are making here is thinking that a comic is trying to be serious and formal about it
Another key mistake, done by the people who write about epistemology, is that they take some fields too seriously. Sociology doesn't deserve any thoughts.

It's like you just want people to know you're a retard.
>>8302080
Because you're not really master race if you're not even a scientist.
>biology is just applied chemistry
Said no chemist ever
>>8302183
That goes double for "psychology is applied biology."
A more accurate quote would be "lol psychology is pseudoscience."
>>8302245
Link faggot
>>8302245
Dude, it's sad.
Don't lie.
Physical chemistry is the worst chemistry there is. It's also the most useless. All the useful shit in physical chemistry is what chemical engineering is for. Organometallics and biochemistry is where all the excitement lies.
>>8302016
I will agree that they come up will perhaps the most important and most relevant breakthroughs in knowledge. but master race? Only if the master race is struggling to feed and house himself while discovering wonders literally no one around them understands.
>>8302016
OP this is a stupid fucking post
Don't embarrass yourself, OP.
>>8302016
Except this whole circle is just the shadow cast by the engineer's that circle
>>8302097
Nobel Laureate in Physics accredited with discovering the symmetry breaking mechanism which induces superconductivity at low temperatures. He's a really smart guy, and a funny little man with big puffy white hair. At least he is now.
I ate cookies next to him once.
>>8304525
Are you not aware that rational drug discovery is actually a thing in the first place?
engineering is based squarely in reality. scientists say "imagine if we built this, it would be really cool". engineers say "we could never build it, it would be too expensive".
disclaimer: i'm not saying engineering is the best, or that its better than science

nice try dickhead, you'll just have to trust me
>>8302016
This is the most retarded comic out of all of em
>>8306950
Cuck'd mathematician detected.
>>8302016
Why are Mathematicians worried about experiments in this depiction? We don't care about the real world. Pure Mathematicians are proud about being disjoint from the anything "real".
>>8304649
Yeah reality sucks. That's why I like Mathematics.

Abstraction ftw

open question to anyone: what makes sociology so "impure" a field?
