I honestly believe that most, if not all, of those who keep spewing shit about philosophy are first/ second years who are yet to complete a history of science/ philosophy of science component.

Or completely missed it. My uni made it a compulsory second year subject for most science streams the year I went into 2nd year. Pretty glad too. Philosophy section covered history of science but was only a 3 week crash course. Still very informative and interesting

oh yeah, and just to add, if any of you actually think philosophy and science are mutually exclusive, you should probably swap majors.

Also, I love how anti popsci you angsty fedora wearing kids are. "hurr you dont know science, you cant be in our club". It gives scientifically ignorant people an easy front with which they can interact with science. Not everyone has an undergraduate in science man.

I'd rather that than "hurr science sux I believe the science presented by fox news"

Philosophy solved the problem of science being based around anecdotal evidence and the commonplace confirmation bias that would often occur in early days before falsification become popularised
