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

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. 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. 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.

Proress in this case really means "knowledge".
