Date: August 8th, 2025 9:02 AM Author: The Wandering Mercatores (from the Euphrates to the Forum) 100% it is, like all physics a symbolic system constructed out of math. which is itself a language the ape invented to make sense of quantities patterns and its own panic attacks about the void. but the predictive accuracy of QFT itself is actually one of the most accurate and predictive frameworks the ape has ever conjured in terms of experimental results. Now to what extent is it describing "real" physics? On the one hand it corresponds bautifully with experiment which is physics only real test. but on the other hand we only ever test the universe through our own apparatus, meaning we are jsut describing how the universe behaves when poked by apes using ape built instruments. so basically its not describing "the thing in itself" but the echo of our prodding. sort of like trying to understand "the nature of a cat" by pulling its tail and measuring how loud it yowls. Absolutely made up, but like a myth that builds bridges and splits atoms (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5758522&forum_id=2/#49166954) |

Date: August 8th, 2025 9:18 AM Author: The Wandering Mercatores (from the Euphrates to the Forum) psychologists are much worse. physics is ultimately made up but still can be tuned well enough to match sensor data and build things that blow up. psychology the highest IQ researchers are like 145 which isn't even smart enough to become a theoretical physicist these days. although probably will be now with advanced AI (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5758522&forum_id=2/#49166994) |
