The flat earther argument.
“The research is wrong.”
- __turbobrew__ 9mo agoI proposed a logically consistent perspective where both my experience and the study are true at the same time? What is your response to that other than comparing me to a flat earther? Do you have something useful to contribute?
- dangus 9mo agoI wasn't even responding to you.
- __turbobrew__ 9mo agoSorry
- spiderfarmer 9mo agoYes, the research is wrong. And in science, it's not taboo to call that out. It's outdated, doesn't differentiate between people trying to incorporate it in their current workflow and the people who apply themselves to entirely new ones. It doesn't represent me in any way and I am releasing features to my platform daily now, instead of weekly. So I can wholeheartedly disagree with its conclusion. The earth is either flat of it isn't. It's easy to proof it's not flat. It's not easy to conclude that the results of a study in a field that changes daily represents all people working in it, including the ones who did not participate.
- dangus 9mo agoIf it is so self-evident that the research is wrong, that means there should be some research that supports the opposite conclusion then? Maybe you can link it?
- spiderfarmer 9mo agoNo. The reason we don’t see any other research is because it’s neigh impossible to study a moving field. Especially at this pace. If you have any ideas on how to measure objectively while this landscape changes daily, please share them with us. Maybe a researcher will jump on this bandwagon and proof you right.
- dangus 9mo agoGood excuse.
