Graham is one of them. They never seem to factor in the human element (greed, ego, fear/coercion, politics and religion), which frequently compromises the scientific method. |

Those who say it's not religious haven't gone to enough meetings. Even that, a person can deal with it, just ignore it as best they can. Understand.

There are lots of people and lots of scientists who believe in God. There are Christian scientists who believe in the Judeo-Christian God. There are Islamic scientists who believe in Allah. There are Indian scientists who believe in God(s). That doesn't mean that any of their different gods exist. It is a matter of belief. |

Well, you won't listen to sensible advice, John. You need to give up on this nursing business - it's over for you. There seems to be plenty of other jobs out there much better suited to you. But it seems the truth is, you're just lazy and don't want real work. |

That is a home wrecker. I was lucky > That's a very poor design. I was once stuck under a car holding a leaking gas line closed with a thumb while trying to reach a drop light as gas was inching towards the light bulb. It was quite a scary thing to turn a light off while you're lying in a puddle of gasoline. Obviously, things went my way - except for the chemical burns on my back. Now, with these new electric cars you'd not have that problem...!!! https://marginalrevolution.com/marginalrevolution/2022/01/how-does-an-electric-car-work.html Sean requests: Say you were trying to teach yourself, to a 99th percentile *layperson's* level, how, say, an electric car actually worked. How would you go about doing that, precisely? I am not sure exactly how high (or low) a standard that is, but here is what I would do. 1. Watch a few YouTube videos. 2. Read a book or two on how electric cars work, along the way finding an expert or mentor who could answer my questions. 3. If needed, read a more general book about electricity. 4. Try to explain to someone else how electric cars work. Try again. I would recommend this same general method for many particular questions. COMMENT: "In a normal car, when you remove your foot from the gas you mostly coast because the engine disconnects from the wheels via the torque converter. In a Tesla, when you remove your foot from the gas a little bit, you are instructing the motor to deliver less torque than the current speed needs, and so the motor turns into a generator and it absorbs the excess torque until you slow to the new torque you've indicated. Thus, braking is performed by requesting a negative torque (relative to current torque) and acceleration is performed by requesting a positive torque (relative to current torque). Tesla drivers often don't use the brake at all for a lot of driving. Just the gas pedal..." COMMENT: "Start with understanding how a combustion engine car works, by then the answer for electric will be obvious..." COMMENT: "Tyler: I'd like you to get Elon Musk on your podcast and ask him this question (that is, how do you learn, although I'm sure he'd also be able to answer the "how an electric car works?" question). I was listening to the Hardcore History Addendum with Musk on engineering and warfare. It's shocking how deep his knowledge of, for example, the pros and cons of WWII fighter planes is. And his knowledge of the Napoleonic Wars. And Roman technology. He's obviously extremely smart and an unusual personality. But he must have some sort of approach to learning that we could all learn from..." </> |
