What can science ever really know if it can't even understand the dynamics of the qualia of a sip of coffee. Not the chemical pathways... the experience.

how much energy is needed to boil the water to make the coffee you want to mull over

It is now the future. You can get your brain scanned and share an exact memory with your friend by having his brain stimulated.
By both sitting in two chairs, you have now shared an experience with one of you never having had the experience by simplying modifying your friends brain to have the same pathways and stimulation as yours.
We know this would work because we know that you can remove experience and sensation by destroying those pathways.

Nobody can really know anything. Unless you got legit /x/ powers communicating with God about patch updates, approximating the future based on past patterns via math&science, aka empiricism, is the best mortals got.

Already answered. You are just too lost in your seeth and cope to see it.
But if it need to be said out loud, no, I don't know for sure. It could very well be that as luck would have it all the current conclusions of modern science as of this moment is correct for all of eternity.
I just wouldn't bet on it myself.

No one cares about what you would bet on, since you're a self-professed ignoramus.

Wrong.
I don't know for sure if gravity will still work tomorrow, but I can criticize a plan to step off a 6 story building to find out.
Likewise, I don't know for sure if the current empirical conclusions can't be all correct for all time, but I sure as hell can call a religion that blindly believes it to be so when I see one.

Well, since I can't know for sure if you are a raging retard or not, guess I'd better stop engaging with you just in case you turn out to be a retard.

FALSE, this will only reproduce the signal, not the qualia, or experience

The qualia is an emergent phenomena when you combine all the different signals going into the brain from the coffee. Whatever structure they activate and the output of that structure is an electrical representation of the coffee which is unique to the configuration your brain has. It's unique since our neural pathways are incredibly unlikely to form in the exact same way at a micro scale. You could say you're electrically connected to the coffee particles and the combination of the coffee's molecular configuration with yours changes the current configuration of your brain, this change in configuration is sensed consciously and the difference between the configuration you had before you drank the coffee and after you drank is the qualia.

Science is not about a priori knowledge or capital T truth (as much as theoretical physicists might protest). Science is about inferential modeling and getting as close as we can get to an instrumental truth that helps us understand the material world around us.
We could have a future in which we literally never solve the problem of consciousness and never produce a mechanistic understanding of experience, and yet science will surely progress in many meaningful ways beyond this.

A monk took a sip of coffee.
He placed the cup down and said,
"How deep is the taste of the morning?"
Another monk asked,
"Who can measure the stillness between sips?"

So is that a capital T truth or is it just your opinion and hence worthless and indistinguishable from any other arbitrary opinion?
