Aravind Adiga |
Nothing gives us greater pride than the importance of India's scientific and engineering colleges, or the army of Indian scientists at organizations such as Microsoft and NASA. Our temples are not the god-encrusted shrines of Varanasi, but Western scientific institutions like Caltech and MIT, and magazines like 'Nature' and 'Scientific American.' |
James Mark Baldwin |
Psychology more than any other science has had its pseudo-scientific no less than its scientific period. |
Cleveland Abbe |
True science is never speculative; it employs hypotheses as suggesting points for inquiry, but it never adopts the hypotheses as though they were demonstrated propositions. |
Alex Campbell |
My friends all regarded me as a man of unsound mind because I held the view that my wife was with me in spirit always. I have lived with her spirit guiding me every day and she is with me now as I write this letter, and helps me to do as I am now doing. |
Jesus Christ |
I tell you the truth, it is hard for a rich man to enter the kingdom of heaven. Again I tell you, it is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter the kingdom of heaven. |
Peter Agre |
Lack of scientific fundamentals causes people to make foolish decisions about issues such as the toxicity of chemicals, the efficacy of medicines, the changes in the global climate. Our single greatest defense against scientific ignorance is education, and early in the life of every scientist, the child's first interest was sparked by a teacher. |
Ryan Adams |
Writing and creating, those things come to me on their own. I feel like... you sort of summon them and it's like allowing the universe to enter your heart in an entirely different way to what it normally does. It's like inviting that energy of the universe to enter into your craft in a way where it has a meaning. |
Roshon Fegan |
I love dressing up. I like going out and buying some crazy stuff. I like stuff that's new, innovative and weird. I just pick out stuff that is unique and anything that I'm really diggin'. I don't really care if it's kind of out there. That's what I'm about. I like picking stuff that is really different. |
Dean Inge |
In praising science, it does not follow that we must adopt the very poor philosophies which scientific men have constructed. In philosophy they have much more to learn than to teach. |
Naveen Jain |
Great entrepreneurs focus intensely on an opportunity where others see nothing. This focus and intensity helps to eliminate wasted effort and distractions. Most companies die from indigestion rather than starvation, i.e., companies suffer from doing too many things at the same time rather than doing too few things very well. |

So this is what happens guys. It's a romance comedy. It's a movie about a guy. Hes a plant. Not like a cactus. Hes a planted actor on a reality TV show like love is blind where they are supposed to fall in love and get married. Hes just goofin around but he actually falls in love with one of them. Then the one of them at some point figures out that hes a plant and shes like "did you ever even love me!? you were only in it for the money!" and he says "it started out that way but then I wanted to know the real you. I liked being at that tiki bar and I liked stirrin up stupid stuff. even though it was fake it was real." and then they smooch in the rain.

i've been watching berkeley lectures on cognitive science and they showed that all sleep learning studies have shown that you don't learn but there is evidence to show that it helps your memory.

been thinking about what healthy skepticism of science looks like. Scientists are skeptical of science themselves. It's part of the nature of the profession. In fact, is having a skeptic perspective of scientific notions a scientific perspective in and of itself? Maybe not, maybe it depends on where the skepticism comes from or where it leads.
At the mention of skepticism of science, we might think of a group that gets a lot of attention and ridicule--flat earthers. In my opinion, it'd do some good to shift the discourse about flat earthers a bit. Will/might come back to what I was going to say about flat earthers because I'm about to play stardew valley...

Video game idea: Watercolor World: you live in this world where everything is watercolor and you have to do something and you have to fight stuff and when you interact with the world the water moves and stuff and if you punch something it runs down the page sometimes.

Most likely these kinds of experiments are more useful in their assertion that experiential life and even most of science and physics takes place in a collective illusion about the characteristics and function of the universe. Ultimately the only provable observation we can make is that reality displays many layers of information to our awareness and hides others.

Over 30,000 Published Studies Could Be Wrong Due To Contaminated Cells
Researchers warn that large parts of biomedical science could be invalid due to a cascading history of flawed data in a systemic failure going back decades. A new investigation reveals more than 30,000 published scientific studies could be compromised by their use of misidentified cell lines, owing to so-called immortal cells contaminating other research cultures in the lab. The problem is as serious as it is simple: researchers studying lung cancer publish a new paper, only it turns out the tissue they were actually using in the lab were liver cells. Or what they thought were human cells were mice cells, or vice versa, or something else entirely. If you think that sounds bad, you're right, as it means the findings o...

Elon Musk's 'Scientific Method'
An unfortunate fact of human nature is that when people make up their mind about something, they tend not to change it -- even when confronted with facts to the contrary. "It's very unscientific," Musk says. "There's this thing called physics, which is this scientific method that's really quite effective for figuring out the truth." The scientific method is a phrase Musk uses often when asked how he came up with an idea, solved a problem or chose to start a business. Here's how he defines it for his purposes, in mostly his own words: 1. Ask a question. 2. G...
