===== para/proto and 'proper' science ===== 'The approach is obviously powerful, and it is hard to see how solid progress of a factual kind could be made in any other way. It produces answers of the kind known as "robust". "Robust" does not of course mean "unequivocally true" [...] Scientists produce robust answers only because they take great care to tailor the questions. As Sir Peter Medawar said, "Science is the art of the soluble" (within the time and with the tools available). Clearly it is a huge mistake to assume that what is soluble is all there is — but some scientists make this mistake routinely.' -- Colin Tudge ==== nodes ==== * [[Bells Theorem]] * [[Computer Science]] * [[Biological Computing]] * [[Genetic Data]] * [[Membrane Theory]] * [[Pataphysics]] * [[Plan Plant Planet]] * [[Research Labs]] and [[Your Research]] * [[The End Of Quantum Theory]] * [[Science of Consciousness]] * [[Quantum Physics]] * [[Process Physics]] * [[Information Physics]] * [[Information Visualisation]] * [[Communication of Science]] * [[Islamic Science]] * [[Vedic Science]] * [[Category Mathematics]] ==== people are nodes too... ==== * [[Brothers Bogdanoff]] * [[Richard Feynmann]] * [[Humberto Maturana]] * [[Jack Sarfatti]] * to write * [[Albert Einstein]] * [[Isaac Newton]] * [[Charles Darwin]] * Watson and Crick * [[Niels Bohr]] * [[Erwin Schroedinger]] * [[Enrico Fermi]] * quite a few more ended up in the [[Computer Science]] node ==== reading // notes ===== * armchair scientist -> http://www.areacom.it/arte_cultura/loris/armchair.html * relativity explained in words of four letter or less -> http://www.muppetlabs.com/~breadbox/txt/al.html * a timeline of the origins of science from 'antiquity' until 1452 http://www.hkupasteur.hku.hk/hkuip/causeries/Antiquity.html * rnd -> sort -> gravity map http://www.csr.utexas.edu/grace/gravity/
