Is Physics just an obnoxious version of Philosophy?

physics is dumbed-down math

This. Instead of elegant and logical proofs, they do experiments and observation, just like applied mathematicians creating their algorithms.

Physics is empirical, you can have empirical philosophy but in practice philosophers reject empiricism because disproves all their idiot ideas and makes them sad.

>wow im so logical about the behavior of elements I just made up , who could had guessed they will do exactly what I defined them to do :^)

The only way to know about reality is with experimentation, the theorical part of physics is just a nice way to organize past experiments and the knowledge inside them.

>>9005924
We do both actually. That's why we are the master race.

>>9005908
Physics is empirical metaphysics. case closed.

What the fuck are you all even saying?

Jesus fucking christ. The current state of sci is abysmal.

>philosophers reject empiricism

What about the empirical schools of philosophy? Positivism, pragmatism, phenomenalism?

What do you know about philosophy?

Holly shit anon you were born this way or you got the stupid afterwards?

>>9006165
I think he meant that you can describe physics as a form of empirical metaphysics. Philosophers have this tendencies to mark their territory in a really shitty way.

yes, natural philosophy

>>9006179
Well no. Empirical metaphysics deals with the subject of... wait for it... metaphysics (literally meaning beyond physics), not physics.

Physics has always been a part of philosophy tho and it may be sometimes interwined (in sloppy authors) with metaphysics.

>>9006190
Lol, I was trying to defend you, but you are just ignorant about the subject. Read a bit more moron.

ITT: retards that think you can understand the basic Physical Laws without using complex abstract mathematics.

Americans, amirite? Y'all need to stop watching that Michio Kaku shit.
