Physics was a mistake my man

I blame string theory

Stop skipping class Timmy

OrchOR is over 20 years old. It has solid science behind it.

>>8960644
I think I heard something like this, something like plank geometry determining how our brains are arranged on the smallest scale, and that being equivalent to morality somehow or some shit.

It was used as an example of what pseudoscience is and how people fall for it.

read ANY of the first and second generation psychoanalysts

Their findings are valid, but their interpretation of the results are lunatic.

just because you dont understand it doesnt mean its crazy

You can thank Roger Penrose for that.

Science is notation of data.
Philosophy is interpreting that data.
Engineering is making something out of the interpretation.

They got plastic surgery when it was still in its dial-up phase

Bogdanoffs are a pair of French twins who managed to publish a series of nonsensical Scientific papers in Reputable journals.
A Scandal known as Bogdanoff Affair
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bogdanov_affair


One has a Math PhD & other a Theoretical Physics PhD.

Today they write about science fiction, popular science.

They also look hideous after plastic surgeries.

Stupid things I've see /pol/tards post here:

>you and I are both human and we have the same genes, but we share no alleles

>cold weather selects for intelligence

>if you take some ice and put it into a cup of water and the ice melts, the volume of water in the cup will be lower than before you added the ice

>>8963285
>>if you take some ice and put it into a cup of water and the ice melts, the volume of water in the cup will be lower than before you added the ice
Technically it can be. If the ice is cold enough and the water hot enough then adding the ice can significantly lower the temperature of the water reducing the thermal expansion effect and lowering the volume.

>>8963304
Sure, but it was in reference to the global warming/ice melting problem. He claimed that water levels would go down if the ice melted because ice is less dense.

He didn't realize the melting ice is on the ground, no in the ocean, and to address your problem, global ocean temperatures are rising as well.

>>8963322
In the future you should address that sea level rise is mostly because of thermal expansion. Melting ice has very little to do with it comparitively.

>>8963335
Ice is by far the larger problem, almost 70% of the world's water is ice. Thermal expansion pays some role, but adding lots of water from land glaciers into the ocean is a far bigger problem.

>philosophy: identify a position and argue for it

The only thing that you just proved is that you dont know what philosophy is.

>>8963337
Everything I'm finding points to thermal expansion being the major contributing factor, especially in the long term. Where are you hearing otherwise?

>>8963348
Thermal expansion has played the larger role for the past few decades, but we are losing more and more glacial ice on greenland, alaska, and northern canada so loss of land ice will be the predominant factor moving forward
