Scientifically speaking, of course.
Seems like EVERYTHING that humans do causes global warming. Do we need to implement and raise carbon taxes in countries that already have them even further to fight global warming?

🧵 Should philosophers be required to demonstrate mathematical proficiency?
Anonymous at Fri, 10 May 2024 13:42:05 UTC No. 16168968
This was the case during platos time as you were not respected as a philosophical thinker unless you understood trigonometry. But now anyone can be a highly respected philosopher without any mathematical understanding. The training to become a philosoher seems wholly inadequate in producing intellectuals. Anyone who is “interested” enough can earn a PhD and become a professor. There is really nothing that will weed people out for being inadequate. But if a prerequisite to becoming a philosopher would be to earn a masters or even a PhD in pure maths, I believe the field of philosophy would improve greatly. We could have been spared so much pseudo intellectualism from philosophers who really shouldn’t have been respected as intellectuals. This can apply to pretty much every non mathematical field. To be honest I believe that most fields have absolutely no real training necessary. For instance in philosophy the you do not need philosophical training to understand philosophical arguments by professors. But when it comes to math you would need years of training to understand modern math. It just shows how much a waste of time graduate school really is for many fields. It would probably be best for all subjects to have their professors be guys with math phds who decided to read about those subjects.

Is wikipedia OK as a general science resource? I read wikipedia science articles a lot and sometimes wonder if things are correct. I assume things that are referenced to academic papers are going to have a good chance of being correct, but it's not uncommon for half the article to be unsourced. Sometimes i'll check the Talk page of an article to see if people are complaining about stuff in the article, and while I've seen it happen a few times it doesn't seem that common, so I assume most articles are decent.
Do you have any examples of science articles on Wikipedia that are blatantly wrong? Not just because you have a hunch they're wrong, but you actually know some statement is verifiably incorrect.
While the Out of Africa theory is often debated on /sci/, the Talk page on wikipedia is basically empty, which I assume means almost nobody disputes the claims made in the article.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:
The Climate Change article though has almost 100 pages of people arguing against the content of the article, with lots of comments like this one for example. So I assume there is likely problems with the article content, or important information isn't being included

They literally don't give a shit about patients. They'd prefer to get rid of anaesthesia all together and go back to giving patients a stick to bite on. Made from recycled wood of course.

This test is so fucking stupid. I know I'm not the brightest but a score of 142?! thats ridiculous. I don't get why /sci/ takes this test seriously when you get some someone like me to score really high. I bet some of you guys can score higher than 160 on this test.

Why is belief against intelligent life the scientific consensus? Why are scientists retarded in just this one area?
