The rock is shown in realistic perspective, indicating depth. However, the authors presume that we are looking at the exact front of a flat object, such as an axe blade. The realistic perspective disqualifies that presumption. If the roc

Read the last sentence of their abstract: "Identifying a fifteenth-century painting of a handaxe does not change what we know about Acheulean individuals, but it does push back the evidence for when handaxes became a prominent part of

You are wrong. Maybe you did not read the paper which the article is reporting. From the paper abstract: "Identifying a fifteenth-century painting of a handaxe does not change what we know about Acheulean individuals, but it does push

The contrast tells us "the right side is obviously stylized, and this illustrates that the left side is rendered with realistic perspective". Which means the rock is round and proves the authors incorrect because they overlook thi

I know what words mean, what is your point? The authors claim that modern 15th century people already knew the "pre-historic" narrative about rocks being axes. They are shoe-horning this theory into the painting by claiming the p

What an odd thing to claim and publish, and the wikipedia article is already updated with these spurious "findings". That qualifies as suspicious. The actual position taken by these "archeologists" from their paper abo

Worse than that, a real Platform Muppet. The stooge name signals "researching how to control post-sapien organ-machines". The article signals conclusive evidence for applications of the research.

People understand this dogma perfectly well, no reasoning or critical thinking required. Literal, to be under the standing of another mind. No logical basis exists for black holes, they are a rationalization for the faulty foundation upon

For the philosophers, this is why the pushers of rationalism thrust Kant to the fore, he wrote that reason is insufficient. That may be true for some types of inward thinking like creativity and invention. The truth can never be invented

Rule by ideology leads to every kind of terrorism, but it doesn't make the trigger man special, only a pawn. It is important to know ideology is not about ideas but deos, the "God Complex". The terrorist actor is always a z

You are sticking to rationalization, so I must argue that. Rationality is the mirror of mystification. With rationalism you can endlessly circle the argument in defense of thy mystical beliefs. Your mystified understanding of terrorism is

If you want the answer for yourself, you need to demystify "terrorism", since that is the headline narrative from day one and to this day. When you grok what terrorism really is, the logical conclusion to who did the deed is to an

What "you consider good" can be bad, especially if you are going by conscience and your source is faulty. Otherwise we would never learn from our mistakes or feel sorry for wrongdoings. A faulty conscience leads one to feel good

This is ILLITERATE narrative. This is weak science and trash journalism. Painters of the time were literal, which make this hit piece an illiterate writing of history. This is news from the academic synod, and not without purpose to decei

That's a funny way to rationalize begging the charity of another mind with questioning.

"Rational discourse" is the demand of people who cannot grok and need it explained within their epistemology. It is pointless, for they bring no conviction but disbelief and biases; and it is endless because it gives them not foo

Spacetime is a colloquial term for a derivative calculation or projection which only applies within the model. It has also not proven very germane as a unit, or it would be used more like a unit, rather than as description of a picture. Th

The article is about measurement, which the author doesn't define one bit. Measurement reform is too late in the process to mitigate conclusion chasing. This is a problem of academics and politics, not scientific methods.

The root cause is their need to reach for conclusions, probably from the outset of the study in order to justify their so-designed "experiment". Statistical studies should come without any pretense of a conclusion from the re
