Hi, first time I've been welcomed here. I have to say compared to the rest of the internet, it's not too bad here. Should I post an introduction post...
Okay, but 'round' is what he said. They aren't. But the point is to devise some measure of regularity that matches 'round'. I really think you're...
Not even going to try? A round shape is where all points are equidistant from the center. This definition applies to circles, spheres and n-sphere by...
Your objection doesn't apply to a point. Come to me with a definition of round, and of square that can be generalized to n-spheres and n-cubes, and...
I've been trying, but it's both dense and lacking an abstract. My first thought was that you were proposing a Cartesian theater. My current...
Hold on! I can make a round square. Square is a two dimensional shape. Just make a three dimensional shape that is circular on the x-y axis, and...
I can't think of any reason that particular source shouldn't (given that I don't see binaries on the site, you will need to compile it. The age of...
This gives me an idea for a third approach that might resolve omnipotence paradoxes: Security through obscurity. If a god's omnipotence is only...
When I say predictive utility, I mean that the extent it is believed that a hypothesis is correct in predicting some outcome. In physics, this would...
There's also this list of circuit emulators.
I didn't see his statement as describing god, but rather describing logic (even though this isn't what he meant). If god did exist, any apparent...
Personally, I don't think the scandals should have surprised anyone. We've gotten too used to the natural sciences, where data is very easy to get...
Right now I'm reading The Picture of Dorian Gray. At least for now. The book doesn't seem terribly dated yet, although I am not that far into it.
You are not, despite whatever aspirations, a Bayesian. Nor, as you do not know every provable logical statement, are you a purely logical reasoner....
Is that a yes or a no? I do not understand how your response answers my question.
This does not disagree with anything I have said previously. What do you think would constitute a good faith attempt to clarify what I mean, and how...
Have you written, or are you writing, a thesis?
This does not disagree. If there is a set of data that needs to be modeled and that there are two theories that are put forward as descriptive,...
This definition is problematic. It does not allow someone to distinguish between competing theories of different predictive strength, only between...
I believe I understand what the confusion is. If we frame 'belief' as a statement of probability on a binary question of God's existence:lixluke...
