# Against Method: study against logical positivism

Word: I should note that this is written while reading through Feyeraband's essay. Henceforth expect knee-jerk-reaction type of writing as opposed to well thought out logical anything.
|
||||
|
||||
Anything properly _fleshed out_ is labeled as such.

## Observations & Connections Based on Recent Things Around Me
|

|

A video from _Periodic Videos_ comes to mind wherein they tells a story about someone that tried to make a _mini-nuclear reactor_ in their kitchen.
|
||||
The tone of the speaker in the video is in some ways mocking the guy for trying to do this in their own home and not in a lab.

Further: To develop a theory of error is to create an (likely unchanging) _theory of error_ is to riddle that same theory with historically sourced error.
|
||||
In other words the theory itself is not free from the very thing that it describes as a problem to scientific development. [see observational bias, infinitesimal regression or observation]

> We find, then, that there is not a single rule, however plausible, and however firmly grounded in epistemology, that is not violated at some time or other.

hmmmmmm

|

Proress in this case really means "knowledge".
|
||||
I'm choosing to interpret this using Bloom's method of describing understanding. New discoveries don't always give us comprehensions as we've really only uncovered an apparant fact.
|

Comprehension, understanding, and intuition come later after some time.

This page is dedicated to my own notes about stuff that I read.
