Controversies of Science

The documentary I'm putting together is VERY long, + is really more like a freshman-level university course on scientific controversies. First of its kind. Will include curated reading materials, short videos, thought-provoking conversations + some relevant comedy.

@ibab Once you learn what Constructivism is, then the answer to producing scientific discoveries can eventually become clear: We must create LLM's that have their own scientific worldviews which actually differ from the mainstream scientific worldview.

@ibab If people would just spend a little time thinking about it, they should realize that it takes an against-the-mainstream worldview to create a new groundbreaking scientific discovery. It's actually obvious. But, our Positivist worldview blocks us from seeing it.

It seems inevitable that LLMs will soon surpass human physicists at creating new theories. The next big breakthrough in theoretical physics will likely come from someone prompting a model.

@Stephen55857391 @Saul_Sadka Iran appears to have harbored ambitions to threaten more than just Israel, regardless of what their Supreme Leader promised.

@Saul_Sadka @controscience A wee bit hypocritical coming from a country that attacked Iran

The IRGC can definitely hit the UK with a missile that can hit Diego Garcia, the distance is the same, and if it hadn’t been for the efforts of the United States and Israel, all of Europe would have been under a permanent jihadi nuclear cloud, since just as they were lying about the missile range, they were lying about building the nukes to put on the end of those missiles: nukes to destroy London, Paris, and Madrid, and bring about the Armageddon they are religiously bound to crave. No need to thank Israel and the United States for literally saving the world, but history will know what they did, and how the childish leaders of Europe stood on the sidelines and whined as the adults saved them from their own stupidity.

What we are learning is that such practices are extremely harmful for human health.

Elections are not REAL for over 2 decades. Selection, not election. Have you looked at your EXPERTS on this? Pilots, Green Berets, Infantry ... trashy CON INC pundits, fake patriots ... all with no ACTUAL hands on knowledge of RIGGING elections... Having you to look here and there rather than JEH JOHNSON SELF DECLARED CISA, and they FEDERALIZED THEM - Cares ACT gave all STATE IPS to CISA. CIS SECURITY (NGOish) all ELECTIONS. Come on - are we still chasing ballots? They did that on PURPOSE... The certifications are the ONLY direct hit, but they ignored that because it didn't make them money-now they decided to start looking that way -- I did say they would in 2020....when they can rack cash for it. IN OTHER WORDS - it was on purpose-- WHY? There are two answers: ONE: to run the clock on the statute of limitations while they parade around the US, taking your money and "canvassing" and hearing them speak while you buy a TWC product. LOL TWO: The PREVIEW is tonight.

Toroidal flask plasma transitions, so dope

$8,400 on a gastroenterologist, an allergist, and 14 months of elimination diets before someone tested his zonulin levels Had a client come to me after being told he had IBS, possible Crohn's, maybe a "sensitive stomach." He'd cut out gluten, dairy, eggs, soy, corn, nightshades, histamine foods. Was eating 7 foods. Lost 22 pounds he didn't need to lose. Still bloating after every meal. Still waking up looking 6 months pregnant by dinner The allergist ran a skin prick test. Came back negative for everything. The GI ran an endoscopy and colonoscopy. Both clean. "Must be stress-related." Gave him a prescription for dicyclomine and told him to try yoga Nobody measured intestinal permeability. Nobody checked what was happening between the cells of his gut lining. Nobody even considered that the barrier itself was the problem, not the food passing through it We ran zonulin. Through the roof. His tight junctions were blown open. Every food he ate was triggering an immune response not because the food was the problem but because his gut wall was letting partially digested proteins into his bloodstream where they don't belong. His immune system was attacking food particles like foreign invaders because to his body they WERE foreign invaders The issue wasn't removing more foods. It was fixing the barrier. What we did: Stopped all further food restriction immediately. Reintroduced foods one by one while supporting the gut lining. Bone broth daily for collagen and glycine to support mucosal repair. L-glutamine at therapeutic doses for enterocyte fuel. Removed the actual triggers: chronic undereating, excessive cardio, and 4 cups of coffee on an empty stomach every morning (this mf was basically torturing his gut). Added zinc carnosine for mucosal protection. Restored caloric intake to actual maintenance. He'd been eating 1,600 calories at 185 lbs Within 6 weeks he was eating 30+ foods again. Bloating completely gone. The 7-food prison diet that three doctors endorsed was making him sicker by starving the microbial diversity his gut needed to heal $8,400. 14 months. And the answer was to eat MORE, not less btw if you're carrying a list of "safe foods" on your phone and it keeps getting shorter, your problem probably isn't food sensitivity. Your problem is barrier integrity. I go deep on gut permeability, zonulin, and exactly how to repair barrier function on my substack. link in bio

The big question here is why they didn't do this at the start of the war, before they liquidated the country's supply of men? Forgive me if I just assume this was intentionally done.

This is Khamenei himself (with English subtitles) claiming that the regime’s ballistic missile range is limited to 2,000 kilometers & that he has imposed a ban on anything beyond that. You can never trust the regime in any agreement. Lying and cheating are in their DNA.

@AI_evangelist42 @EMostaque Academics are already obsolete. The current system already ensures that no large changes can occur. All of the coming scientific revolutions will come from maverick outsiders working w AI - not the academic scientists.

@controscience @EMostaque scientists will have to adopt AI of become obsolete

For pure theoretical physics can’t see how this wouldn’t be 2027 Window of final human-only cognitive contributions is coming to a close Forever

@AI_evangelist42 @EMostaque In theory, it could. But, their worst enemy will be their own aversion to against-the-mainstream science. That's where all of the new discoveries will come from. They've been fighting to destroy those competing ideas their whole lives, now they're just going to accept them?

@controscience @EMostaque AI could help solve it though

@AI_evangelist42 @EMostaque This would mean (a) acknowledging that they are no longer the expert; (b) abandoning their current career path; (c) pissing off all of their peers; (d) losing their grant funds; (d) getting blocked from publication. It would be professional suicide.

@AI_evangelist42 @EMostaque Consider the hypothetical scenario where AI notices there are enough problems w our physics frameworks that it decides to abandon them in favor of a different framework that academics currently ignore or label as pseudoscience. Will the researchers blow up their own discipline?
