Is this supposed to be a scientific research paper? > "The companies selling this product are required by the
Capitalist Science Act of 2012 to identify the hypotheses
in the database (or their negatives) that are necessary for
the product to work as intended. By 2020, the database
contains millions of hypotheses. Of the hypotheses in the
database in 2020, many have a posterior (current belief)
sufficiently close to the prior (set by the initial auction
for that hypothesis) that the money made by the authors who provided evidence for the hypothesis is negligible" What's up with the citation to the above paragraph: > "[11] Both the prior (circa 2012) and posterior on Newton’s
Law of Gravity (with appropriate caveats) will be very
close to unity, for example, and the money made by the
authors of database entries adjusting the belief in Newton’s Law of Gravity can be neglected in this example." I can't parse this, Don't adjust your beliefs based on the fictional database? caveats to Newton's Law of Gravity? I don't understand. This doesn't seem rational or scientific. It seems more like a narrative or personal exposition. Can anyone point out a hypothesis or any science here? |
