It's worthwhile to engage with the philosophical classics, but almost all philosophy majors are retards who sincerely believe any method is prone to fail because they prefer to see reality as a kind of bad dream. Once you practice science and you see that we have many methods that do in fact work, that delusion is put away for good. Philosophers are seldom interested in building anything. They only get off on critiquing things that work fine.

Then that's a completely vacuous definition that boils down to "the things that work are the things that work". A working definition of science that we can actually use in the real world is going to have flaws and fail to accomplish our goals given some circumstances.

Anon. Definitions are tautologies. If you're inquiring about the epistemological method of science then you are going to be disappointed. There is not one set method.

>but the ultimate benchmark of something being good science is that it works.

The problem is that there are certain things that we might want to do now that we fundamentally cannot tell if they 'work', via experiment alone. For instance, we cannot produce an experimental procedure that declares, to an outside observer, that a given subject is conscious, or in what way, instead we rely completely on the presumption that, given that other people (or animals) are similar to us, are created through similar causes, and behave in ways we relate to, that we can rely on their words and actions as evidence that they are experiencing the world in a way we might understand similarly.

We cannot do that for a mechanic or cybernetic entity that doesn't share this origin, and at the same time we have no way of ruling out the possibility of such entities being conscious (i.e. if they somehow couldn't be, then what would it be that makes our brains conscious).

For all practical purposes philosophy is useless, but a lot of non-intuitive results in both physics and foundational maths has prompted philosophical inquiry primarily from scientists themselves. However, even by Einstein's time philosophy was far removed from science, rather being the book-selling, humanities-oriented pseudo-intellectual activity we know today. Serious analytic philosophy is now regarded as either mathematics or linguistics.

Science is only a tool. It does not and cannot answer the big questions. All meaningful questions about the true nature of reality can only be explored through philosophy. Science can only tell us what we perceive of reality; it cannot speak of reality itself.

Philosophy and sociology really changed their orientation towards the sciences between these eras. In the modern time, scientists had people like Heidegger gassing them up and theorizing the them as philosopher kings. After WW2, you get people like Latour and Foucault who offer profoundly cynical characterizations of the sciences as social/political entities. This kind of criticism became a routine we follow today.

I think what we see between these two eras is not a difference in scientific people, but an increasingly adversarial relationship between the sciences and the humanities. It's something these later 'science' representatives feel the need to defend themselves against.

I do wish more scientists got into statistics and the philosophy of science. Working in the cell bio field, a lot of my colleagues have a very basic grasp on what they are actually doing. The only thing they know is take a bunch of samples (3 is minimum which means 3 is fine right?) and do a t-test. Or maybe ANOVA. Or they get confused past paired t-tests/wilcoxin rank/whatever.
And then they get just enough knowledge to be dangerous: oh there's a test for normality! Better start using that before I use a t-test.
It's absolutely insane how in the dark they are about what they are actually assuming with each experiment and statistical decision. P-hacking is entirely rampant and its not even malicious, they just don't know better.
You tell them to try a Bayes approach, they have a goddamn heart attack about "subjectivity" and quickly retreat behind their "objective" t-tests. They seem to glass over when I tell them that they already made assumptions about the probability distribution given the test they chose, its just nicely hidden from them so they can pretend they aren't making assumptions. I see the fear of statistics/lack of understanding the philosophy of science constantly holding back fields who are deathly afraid of moving the Sacred P=0.05 because they literally don't know what that would mean in context. It's kinda nuts.
There are some very specific and difficult experiments, for example, which could be done and illuminate a cool mechanism of exosomes, and could easily be done if you calculated the effect size + power + n right (based on cost) and fixed an alpha based on that (which would be more relaxed that 0.05; closer to 0.1 or 0.15). The cost would no longer be prohibitive, but the PI I talked to absolutely could not get over the idea of P != 0.05, and thought it was some sort of cheating or falsification of results or something.
Statistical epistemology should be understood by all scientists.

My PhD had a comp sci/statistics component, and I took my grad school statistics class pretty seriously (most grad school classes are fluff. This one was noted for being very time consuming and difficult, and it was- helped me learn really quickly).
That said, I do have some recommendations:
If you do experiments, Statistics for Experimenters: Design, Innovation, and Discovery is imo a must-read. I have a PDF permanently on my server for anyone who comes through the lab. It covers well the marriage between experimental design and how statistics are used (obviously).
For learning statistics as statistics, Introduction to Statistical Learning is a good one, and for me the intro two chapters of the book Statistical Rethinking are some of my favorite intro texts to the subject altogether. The book is great too, its just geared towards frequentists moving into bayesian territory (but it functions just fine as a statistics book). I've heard good things about Discovering Statistics using R, but I haven't gone through it myself.
Gelman's Bayesian Statistics is also a great read when you really want to sink your teeth into it.
R + Rstudio and don't look back. R-bloggers is a great resource to just mull around in when bored.
Self teaching will take some time for you to fully grasp everything, but stick with it; statistics is one of my favorite subjects. As a bonus, Jaynes Probability Theory: The Language of Science abso-fucking-lutely blew my mind the first time I read it and saw the connection to information theory.

I think its partially this. Definitely describes some scientists I knew, and its the thing I point to when people ask "why is philosophy important?!". I will say modern science also demands a lot more knowledge than in the past. Classic mol. bio/cell bio papers did basically no stats, just pulled some experiments, eyeballed some obvious huge effect size, and said "look!". All the low-hanging fruit has been picked and so people are diving into these super-narrow niche effects which nobody should ever care about (deleting this gene caused a population of neurons to grow, on average, only 98.7% as long as control [n=2000, significant!], and is therefore an important regulator of cell growth!). It requires a lot of complicated analysis for them to see these effects, and is a skill which wasn't much needed in the past. I blame the absolute garbage dump of bad paper people publish to finish their PhD requirement (mine was sorta similar sadly, but since then I've contributed some good shit to the literature so I don't feel as bad).

Well to be fair it seriously is not easy. I graduated with a 3.6 or 3.7 or something, had all A's and one or 2 B's I forget and the only class I ever dropped my entire time at Uni was stats. It was required for all STEM degrees at my school, I don't think this is the case everywhere. I was taking 18 hours though my senior year because I didnt want to have to do another entire semester just for 2 courses and I just didnt have the time. I feel behind and dropped it so it wouldnt affect my GPA. The irony is instead of having to do an entire semester for 2 classes now I had to an entire semester for 1! kek

But yeah this was discussed even then, how clueless most STEM cells were about stats and how it basically invalidated anything they thought they were doing. I see in this shithole all the time how the psueds don't understand statistical significance. I was shocked a few years ago in some thread some anon made about flipping coins or roulette or some shit that 95% of the people in the thread didnt understand the gambler's fallacy and some autist halfwit here always says something is 50/50 and is dead serious when he posts it.

Science viewed itself as above philosophy, with good reason too, given how it allowed us to peer behind the curtain and state things to a exact certainty unavailable to philosophy.
The subject will start to come back in a big way now tho that we're in the process of building minds and exploring the limits of the inner/mental universe.

A lot of people will need to get a strong handle on epistemology, emergence and all kinds of thinking about purely psychological phenomena and linguistics.
Knowing your Derrida and Chomsky will be required reading for anyone working at the sort of things that will displace a lot of scientist and mathematicians soon.

He tried to understand the action of consciousness from first principles, as far as language itself allows such a cmdog-chasing-its-tail kind of project.

Hegelfags say this about basically everything. They can't point to specific passages that would lead to anything that this stuff could be derived from, but they assert that his framework allowed the birth of absolutely everything intellectually important subsequently, but it's not clear how this would have actually affected history in any specific way outside of Marx not having the academic position he did.

NTA and my understanding of Hegel comes mostly from SEP articles and a few lectures ages ago. I freely admit I have never read more than a few brief excerpts of translations of Hegel, so I may not qualify as a Hegelfag since the absolute heighth of Hegelfaggotry is talking about reading Hegel. Nonetheless:
>can't point to specific passages
Hegel's description of the three logical moments (Abstract/Dialectical/Speculative, beginning at EL 79) is more commonly known today as the DIKW pyramid.
>it's not clear how this would have actually affected history in any specific way
Depends on what you consider historically significant. Pretty much all formal logic today originates in Frege's work, which was a refutation of Hegel's (and/or the beginning of the Dialectical moment to Hegel's Abstract moment). Without modern formal logic we probably wouldn't have an internet to shitposted on.

For another one, "on computable numbers with an application to the Entscheidungsproblem" is a work of philosophy and the Church-Turing thesis is a philosophical thesis about compatability. You can think of it as an empirical hypothesis I guess, but in any case the entire field of compatability theory and computer science is based on a philosophy of considering a machine which can manipulate symbols as a human does

Your belief in a conscious creator when it is not required shows your intelligence.

It is not radical to claim there must be "something" rather than nothing. This is actually the predominant view.
There is zero justification for then jumping to the conclusion that this "something" - whatever it is - requires a "creator".

For example, let's say "Math" is the something that <always> exists. You don;t need a creator. Math just IS. If you want to call that "God" to satisfy your weak, limited mind that fears death and the unknown, go ahead. But the rest of us don't need your crutch. Sorry, dude.
