yeah hes talking about "scientists" not scientists, clearly theres a distinction caused by the quotation marks in this context.

ugh.

Woah, i just looked at one of the past AS papers, in year twelve i would not have been able to do most of that paper.

holy crap Australia has a shitty education system, you guys learn how to read IR/ about aromatic ring activation/deactivation in year 12?

>>1128844
im sorry but i actually have no idea what AS refers to, im quite ignorant of these things.

im curious, where is this test from?

i'd like to see the spectra.

>>1128764
once perhaps...twice?

"hmm, this man also grew wings, LET US TEST AGAIN TO BE SURE"

>>1128713
So lets say we have a translator for the Russians, the Russians could be sincere, but this translator could be a total cockface and say shit like the Russians are going to eat your throat and rape your dog after shitting all over your kitchen sink.
And lets say you found a document saying "translator said X, Russians actually said Y"

what you're saying right now is equivalent to saying that the Russians are the ones who shouldnt be trusted as a result of the translator fucking everything up.

>an ethane molecule with two carboxylic acids on each carbon

no there's not.

depends on proposed magnitude of observed effect.

ie, pill that improves running speed by 1%? need a large sample to test it

pill that makes you grow massive wings and breathe fire? i'd imagine you'd only need to test it once.

>"scientists"

well clearly you're just a "retard"

God and "higher beings" are inherently two different concepts.

God has a number of ridiculous properties assigned to him, while "higher being" could just be a pretty cool guy who could wipe us out if we got on his tits.

I still think pasteur over lyell.
truly going to sleep now

>>1119783
Im not seeing how you can justify drawing the line between the two.

besides, even just looking at the field of science, his actions lead to the freedom (in my opinion) of scientific thought, how can you call this insignificant?

>>1119734
and pasteur over lyell.

that said, im going to sleep.

>>1119734
I would put Galileo as one, hell, both Newton and Einstein have praised him as the best.

the most important step he took for science, he began the critque against blind belief.

>>1119716
>every scientific statement ever made -- is part of science.

stating the obvious in a misleading way.

not all claimed "scientific statements" are actually scientific.

ie, a lie (eg falsified data) could for all intents and purposes appear to be scientific, and people may go "hey, thats a scientific statement"

but in the most fundamental meaning of the word, its not a true scientific statement.

a scientific statement includes that it was reached legitimately.

>pasteur not on list

you're fucking kidding me right?

>>1119607
because you like reading the stupid comments of other people and think to yourself "thank god im not as dumb as them"

of course, you could actually be the one thats dumb.

>>1119461
dont start you bastard, that game made me confused about my sexuality for like a week.

Could someone translate what the OP said in legible terms?

Prove that
P = NP

or that
P != NP

You cannot have property without essence.

ie, "The apple is red, but it doesnt exist"

doesnt make sense.

therefore you cannot have awareness without existence.

of course, i use the term "existence" in its most liberal form

>>1111678
Chimeras can have both XX and XY, so thats not a strict definition.

also, there ARE cases of "women" who have XY, and likewise "men" who have XX.

>>1103720
...did you even look at OPs pic?

fuck it, going to sleep

>>1103655
now that you mention it..

>>1103686

have you read up on any local history of the factory? if theres a reason why the shit was left there to rot, you may want to know it.

after all, i'd really suck to get accumulated lead poisoning or something due to carelessness.

Why is it a logical fallacy?
