A "field" refers to a collection of points versus looking at the singular dimension. Ignore the term for now.
What you are proposing is appropriate because otherwise you would be discussing whether action at a distance occurs [like how can the ends of a wire just connected to some battery...
Example inquiry to question the Big Bang:
How can you differentiate between the appearance of a singularity as being literally real versus a perspective illusion? [Like how do we make sense of witnessing the perspective of parallel lines in reality appear to converge to a point in the distance...
I would avoid concern about inferring anything from black holes. As Drakkith just mentioned and can be extended upon, this is beyond 'basic' physics.
The Big Bang is one class of theories based on assuming a 'singularity' inferred AND that argues for a 'hot' origin. I'm not satisfied with this...
This would be a more specific goal that all mathematicians, as a class, cannot be asserted without imposing it on all others. I agree to this sub-goal of particular mathematicians. I personally think that the subject math, as a subset of logic, is best differentiated from other forms of logical...
I get the concern. I think a lot of this comes down to the practical political expediency of formal pronouncements. But the statistical comparisons using lots of metadata helps to narrow down the major contributing factors assigned (but can be incorrect in fact).
For Covid, the nature of how...
Exactly what is considered to be a mathematician?
A specialty logician or practicioner of their efforts whose domain is quantity.
Given these two general kinds of people can combine their study as it applies to other subject domains, this might be a simlified GENERAL description of the class...
The second law is actually a 'definition' in light of the first law of inertia. All the laws are more appropriately "postulates" of Mechanics and normally a definition is separated from postulates in logic.
If "kinematics" is the stage of labeling without concern to time, then this might also...
No, actually I've experimented with this very assumption. Even supposedly intellectual people are flawed to default to emotional/political biases. A bad title for a thread or a paper, is enough for a 'referee' or moderator to eliminate without reading it themselves.
What I think is severely NOT...
Who says I personally haven't? The 'burden' though when people GO to forums should be on par with each other in respect. That is, unless a site is intended to dictate and not have open dialogue, authority is itself moot. The point of open discussion is to both share one's views and participate...
Thank you. I wasn't sure if you were interpreting it this way. I disagree. Non-response occurs as much when more people simply agree too. Depending on the topic some will agree but not bother positing accolades. This is often a personality trait of the optimist who might feel it necessary to...
You asserted this: "I want to look at the more general question of why there is apparently so little interest in such personal theories,independently of whatever rules a particular forum might have." You were assuming something intrinsic in the thought processes of those proposing theories with...
I agree to much of the OP but think that there are other factors involved too that get overlooked and create real problems both inside and out of what people consider is 'science'. "Science" is generally the practice, skill, and logic derived through the act of observing the world. The blur of...
