sorry, I've tuned you out. Probably I'm not an AI considering typos and agreement errors.
Robust counterargument.
To conclude the thread, yes, you obviously can reason about politics in the same way one can reason about anything else that doesn't behave rationally, like fish, through to things which can't reason at all, whether they be oceans or planets. Moreover, one can logically characterise that which behaves illogically in the same way we can mathematically characterise and constrain the behaviour of fractals and fluids and other objects which are, fundamentally, impossible to precisely describe.
If engineers remain uneducated in this way, you'll become sycophants led as lemmings by cult figures like Alexander.
Of fractals and fluids? I think you misunderstood what they wrote.
Stating that it's a model is not the same thing as stating that it is useless. Nor that the relationships are wholly wrong. You said it yourself.
> all models are wrong yet some are helpful
Sure, nothing is knowable. Great if you’re trying to get social sciences funding. Not super useful for anything practical.
The math of orbital mechanics has no relation to the behaviour of objects in orbit?
Stick to politics, that's the thread, engineer.
Lol what? You just posted a cog-sci op ed whose first third rambles on being refused publication decades prior. (The second two thirds pretends behavioural neutoanatomy, where we stimulate brain structures to see what happens, doesn’t exist.)
