| Why is science just a starting point and not an end point? Science asks the questions that humans contrive with the tools humans design. Data is selected according to human interests. Worshipping tools rather than contextualizing their use is an instance of misplaced concreteness. A.k.a., "scientism." | |
| I'm here for the sharing, not the snobery @cleeds I'm in philosophy. @artemus_5 "One of the problem on any forum or discussion is "facts". Everyone is interested in the "FACTS" But facts actually say nothing until their interpretation. There is where the disagreement starts."Excellent p... | |
| This is very timely... OP -- thanks for sharing. The piece raised a lot of issues.@jjss49 "media churn, media bias, all driven by structural fragmentation and its own self serving financial incentives, is a real problem, and is a major contributor of many of the big pro... | |
| I'm here for the sharing, not the snobery +1 OPI’m in an argumentative field, and it’s very tricky to have discussions where someone wants to argue for something (prove their point) while also remaining civil. As we've seen in the wider world, without trust no fact can stand and no argume... | |

| Adcom 535L upgrades? @johnss Thanks for the suggestion. I'm probably not capable of DIY on this, but knowing what might make a difference helps a lot. Appreciate it. | |
| Adcom 535L upgrades? @oldhvymec What do you mean by "shelf it"? Do you mean, don't bother? $65 for caps replacement doesn't seem so bad. Please clarify -- I want to know what you think about my question! Thank you! | |
| Adcom 535L upgrades? I am reaching out to local places. What would the most likely thing to do for this amp? New caps...what else? | |
| Adcom 535L upgrades? Thanks for that anecdote. You know, this thing isn't worth much, and I know it's "mid-fi" but it has this nice warmth and thrust that's hard to deny. I am not looking to pretend it's something it's not, but it would be cool if a small upgrade made... | |
