do you look like a scientist?

OK, I give up. Me, a lowly white male, will never make it because I don't look like a scientist

i think this might be the same anon who for years religiously posted the twin study image with the caption “why is racial IQ taboo?” literally there was this anon who for like 5 years posted the same racist thread every week or so for 5 years until somebody called him out and posted archive links of how insanely autistic his routine was.

thanks for making an archive screencap. but honestly if he stays on this one it’s harmless. the twin study thing is legitimately more controversial; this is just a silly troll modulo a wokester statue

I'll never get this idea that being a 'scientist' is some kind of honorable caste. Like if something isn't easy you should feel some pride over good performance, but this kind of idealization is poison in a working environment.

i had high hopes for wolfram. his ToE held much promise, until he spoiled it all by letting copenhagen quantum mechanical bullshit spoil it. very sad state of affairs. it's not too late if he wants to revise it, but he's seeming all too committed.

Holy larperoni. Nigga you stupid. I can tell all your knowledge of the formalism stems from listening to podcasts and his stupid live streams.
The proposed thing is quite clearly defined and not at all that.

tragic stuff. i sincerely hope he can redeem himself going forwards.

All you know is the things he says not what the formalism says. It has absolutely nothing to do with brains.

>> No.15225126

>>15225113
he literally mentions brains every time he gives a talk about his theory. he has given literal talks about consciousness in the context of his theory:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Lg-xvgPtysY

the fact is, he spoiled his promising theory with bullshit, because he was afraid of some "fine-tuning" pseudoproblem, and possibly because despite KNOWING his theory is completely deterministic (he has verbally acknowledged this), he dislikes the idea of a deterministic universe, so he crawled back to the tired old copenhagian type of narrative to try and 'indeterminize' his deterministic theory, ruining it. why you deny this, and here you are, defending his awful blunder, for some reason.
