Freedom of Science

My new discovery that physics is a physical system of puns is getting truer and truer every day. In this article on Hubble’s Law Doctor Carroll of Cosmic Variance plays on the old pun between the universe and cosmos.
Since the secret brotherhood in charge of corrupting languages has corrupted cosmos long time ago we need […]

Doctor Lisi’s successful campaign earned him that great honor the news media reserves for physicists: the new Einstein.
His peers who also covet the New Einstein title now hate him and will unleash a series of commentary thrashing the content of the paper. Big mistake. What the media giveth science cannot take back. Once canonized forever […]

Google now lists several pages about Newtonic Oath! They all suspiciously appear to be created by the same author
      
But there have been some very nice comments at Physics Forums and people were curious enough to check the Wiki but no one so far edited existing clauses or suggested a new one.
To make things easier […]

Some science types get lazy and say that
h = c = G =1.

They are not equal, or they could be used interchangeably.

I agree. But in physics there is the useful concept of locally legal. Doctors can equate any symbol to 1 locally. In physics 1 can have any value, locally. Thus, the famous […]

If Newton were alive today he would not be doing physics, he would be busy contributing to the new science of networks.1 
                             
In Newton’s time finding a tangent to a curve was the state of the art. Today computer science and finding properties of networks is the state of the art. Calculus is the 18th century technology. Academic physics […]

Renormalizability is a swamp. Yes — you can get the right answer by subtracting infinity from infinity. But you can also get the wrong answer. You can get any answer you want. So why is anything that involves renormalization a scientific theory?
Division by infinity is unscientific.1 To market division by infinity as renormalization is scientific […]

Medical doctors have their Hippocratic Oath. Let’s draft one for Doctors of Philosophy:
Newtonic Oath

I swear by Newton the first Newtonian and his Einsteinian limit and Maxwell equations and Lorentz transformations and Planck units and all the gods and goddesses and constants of physics, making them my witnesses, that I will fulfill according to my ability […]

John Conway writes:
Surely one could unify electromagnetism with the other obvious force of nature, gravity, the universal nature of which was established in the late 1600s by Isaac Newton.
Newtonian force is not an obvious force of nature. What is obvious is that nature is not occult therefore there is no occult force in nature.
But Doctor […]

Louise Riofrio said:
Talking to a brick wall with a PhD hanging from it is still talking to a brick wall…
All doctors behave the same way
The idea is true for all doctors not only for Doctors of Philosophy.

For a lawyer there is only one kind of relationship with non-lawyers: Attorney-client relationship.
A medical doctor will not discuss medicine […]

The currency1 of the web is links.2 And authority is proportional to links:
Technorati Authority is the number of blogs linking to a website in the last six months. The higher the number, the more Technorati Authority the blog has.

Authority is proportional to links, so, 
A :: L

Therefore,
A = G L.

where G = 1 Google is the […]
