I don't think I really disagree with you with respect to becoming an expert, but what you think of as becoming an expert may be different from what others are thinking. Personally, what I see is a lot of AI becoming commoditized. There

I really think this is how Stallman thinks. As far as I know, he's never mentioned the words "deontic logic" in writing, but I get the impression he believes he's attempting to give a formal logical argument for morally

Yeah, I think that's really the heart of it. I get why that's the default for the large majority of people, but it's almost never what I personally want. I'm willing to accept that my preferences are different from those

Sorry this is so late, but you can measure the probability that the particle exists. Null hypothesis tests basically try to calculate the probability of a data set given the null hypothesis. What you really want is the probability of a hypo

Null findings are often not as useful as you might think. A point null hypothesis for a continuous variable is literally always false. Especially for the softer science, I've even seen studies mocked for having too many data points, si
