I'm becoming an unapologetic, southern hyper-provincialist... I literally don't care what is going on in the world outside of my little coastal NC county. #downeast
Our hyperfixation with "Progress" has limited science to the production of models sufficient for engineers to invent, design, and build. What most modern people call science (i.e. observational analysis and modeling) is not actually SCIENCE nor THE SCIENTIFIC METHOD. It is but a single step in the scientific method. To completely apply the method, a true scientist must take such observations (and subsequent modeled analysis) and THEN derive falsifiable claims based on those observations. That last step of testing falsifiable claims derived from observational analysis is what makes science science. It is the chipping away of untruth. The true scientist doesn't limit themselves to "observe, model, and describe"; He takes such descriptions, formulates falsifiable theories and TESTS them rigorously. He tries to break them. A true scientist must be the wildest skeptic on earth. A true scientist doesn't limit themselves to the question of "does my model fit" (that is the realm of the mathematician and the launchpad of the engineer), but rather a scientist follows up with "WHY does my model fit when it fits and WHY does it not fit when it doesn't". He doesn't dismiss outliers. For the true scientist, the outliers are the most important thing to explore. Engineers, not scientists, say "this model is good enough". They are not primarily concerned with developing fundamental theories about the nature of the world, but instead with applying these theories in a practical manner. Models are important and valuable, and they may be all the engineer needs. The engineer is perfectly ok w/ outliers and "a good enough fit".
Just trying something. lnbc1m1pjvxge4pp56kku8u22zjwc4ppp3392g4sfztmy65vvc03lh3am3dsug8xuxnxqhp589nk7ae302t4lmzrkqg22d4wzaw3uncgc708tt466pszvu84zxxscqzzsxqyz5vqsp5spjl3vl58m56emyge35gkz0d6qd888hq5zga9hcjkfut7zxrq27q9qyyssq7ya6zyc2d5uva7jw07yh367jxmz2492wexx097r3074thj5wg0j9rpjwng83sl5lexrapykc5zqn6hedel9l647jjct08euvzy79r4qqjdt3pc
Can anyone tell me how to get Primal to display and entire long form note? They are all truncated with ellipses for me.
Scary question: How many of us have lost the ability to read a book cover to cover?
Now that I have a family of my own, I kind of want to watch the episodes of Tim Allen's Home improvement. I feel like there are probably a lot of life lessons in there that I didn't catch as a kid. Sure could use a Wilson in my life some days.
Is there a server/relay package that upon running it, enables me to host my own media (i.e. upload and host my own images/video/files etc)? Yeah, obviously I'd be subject to the limitations of my own hardware and ISP in the event a nostr note with media got a lot of engagement, but I'm ok with that.
24. The dude was 24 years old when he did this. Build something. We have no valid excuses. #dadstr image
How many of you parents out there knew that WANDERING OAKEN is an anagram for NAKED NORWEGIAN? #disney #dadstr image

Any Alexei Butirskiy fans? I own a small giclee of this one. Reminds me of my childhood in upstate NY. Me father was my scoutmaster and helped me love the natural world. image
