@Tim_TimeLord Womp womp commie scum

If people are wondering why America is in the hands of fascists like Trump it is literally because of Dem Libs like this. These gross Wreakers are siphoning money to pay the Spinless democrats that are puppets to the ISREAL LOBBY. UR MONEY IS GOING TO PEOPLE WHO SUPPORT GENOCIDE.

@SIUChasmite @Benthamsbulldog Is bringing up any example "cherry picking"?

@Benthamsbulldog He still never addressed my arguments. And he should have known better. You’re still young and naive here. You’re not convincing anyone. Ppl who already hold this bias are just responding to your virtue signaling. Cherry picking your evidence does not make a convincing argument.

@WKCosmo What's this related to exactly?

Pretty sure they don't care about what indigenous North Americans think.

@Leophilius @onceagainmoore @LiesAreWeapons @MattisRedacted I dont think he understands what token-causation is

@onceagainmoore @IvxnPhil @LiesAreWeapons @MattisRedacted You just keep saying “the cause is known” but you're not saying what it is.

Who caused the sun? Get cooked nerd

@onceagainmoore @Leophilius @LiesAreWeapons @MattisRedacted U just haven't, please take a class in quantum mechanics

@IvxnPhil @Leophilius @LiesAreWeapons @MattisRedacted No. I have described what causes an atom to decay

@onceagainmoore @Leophilius @LiesAreWeapons @MattisRedacted You are just describing what the decay process is, you are not telling me what causes it to decay at that specific moment rather than another

@IvxnPhil @Leophilius @LiesAreWeapons @MattisRedacted The emission is driven by the nucleus, at the particular moment that it needs to rid itself of extra energy between protons and neutrons, caused by electrical repulsion in or an unfavorable neutron:proton ratio.

@onceagainmoore @Leophilius @LiesAreWeapons @MattisRedacted What makes the emission happen at that particular moment?

@Leophilius @IvxnPhil @LiesAreWeapons @MattisRedacted The peer reviewed literature uses both terms when referring to random or stochastic nature of the decay. It's a random and/or stochastic event. The decay is caused by an unstable atomic nucleus that has an imbalance in the ratio of neutrons to protons or excess internal energy

@onceagainmoore @LiesAreWeapons @Leophilius @MattisRedacted Oh okay, the universe doesn't require a cause either

@IvxnPhil @LiesAreWeapons @Leophilius @MattisRedacted A transcendent diety with no beginning has no creator or cause

@Leophilius I never understood the issue of accepting that identity over time is a useful fiction? It seems so obvious to me

The Sun is consistently losing mass and converting one type of atom into another yet somehow it magically sustains fusion! It's almost as if physical processes can sustain over long periods of time despite small scale changes.

@onceagainmoore @LiesAreWeapons @Leophilius @MattisRedacted What caused god

@LiesAreWeapons @Leophilius @MattisRedacted I agree. God is a transcendent being outside our physical universe. The first cause of our physical world.

@Leophilius Oh, so you checked it yourself?

It was neither of those.

@Ljiljana1972 Textbooks are superior. I think that papers and essay collections can replace books that typically argue for a specific position in the field (:

I really need to repeat my story again. I ended up studying philosophy because I discovered that the other dept I was interested in (psychology) relied mostly on textbooks not real books and I wanted to study real books 😁(these are the exact words I used as a high schooler).

@DiracGhost Do you have any good material on category theory in GR?

Found this very interesting monograph (600 pages) available on ArXiv (and Oxford Academic) titled 'The Philosophy and Physics of Duality' by De Haro and Butterfield. To quote the abstract ''This monograph discusses dualities in physics: what dualities are, their main examples--from quantum mechanics and electrodynamics to statistical mechanics, quantum field theory ...--and the philosophical questions they raise'' 🔗👇👇👇

@Taccm7 @DelmontCly @sleepy_devo How would they know what the cut off is between intervention and not? Also the UN does not intervene militarily in any way.

@DelmontCly @sleepy_devo “…that can be done without the UN intervening.”

gaza isn't a genocide doesn't mean what's happening there is good, but not every bad thing is the ABSOLUTE WORST POSSIBLE THING EVER

@EllaTravelsLove Rightoids not knowing the difference between "liberal" and "communist" will never not amaze me.

One of the most fascinating phenomena future researchers will study is liberal, atheist individuals like the woman in this video, who clearly lives in the West and who have genuinely convinced themselves that radical Islam is the victim rather than the aggressor. These are people who never bothered to listen to Iranian leaders over the years openly calling for the destruction of the U.S, European countries and others and its values because they see them as incompatible with Islam. They have no idea what’s written in the Hamas charter or what Hezbollah’s goals actually are. She really believes we all adhere to the same universal values. What would you call this human phenomenon?

@analyticatheism @ultras_antifaa They are actually calling people of certain ethnicity/nationality cockroaches, I don't understand how people dont see this as alarming behavior

@ultras_antifaa This is the same type of language that Nazis and Hutu's used against the people they tried to genocide.

Watch the cockroaches dancing and waving US and Israeli flags while their so-called beloved country is being bombed.

@Leophilius Made a lot of people mad with this one

@Ljiljana1972 @Sverre_Holm And an undergrad interested in physics simpliciter (:

@Sverre_Holm Oh that is wonderful! I guess it was at the Faculty of Physics? Next time we'll have you over at Faculty of philosophy. We have quite a few grad students interested in history of science, and some in history of physics. :)

Enjoyed speaking to students last night in Belgrade, Serbia about how "Galileo was right and so were his adversaries - A scientist evaluates the Galileo affair." Some very good discussions afterwards

@gendernull @discerningPablo @adornos_soul No, and thats good. Illiberal people should not be a part of western society.

@discerningPablo @adornos_soul So if they voted the capitalist mode of production and all of its social relations would have magically done away with? Profound

I lost my shit tonight in my anti-ICE protest speech. “You cannot keep ceding power to politicians who do not give a fuck about you!” Fucking moron a few speeches before me was like “register to vote!”
