Even more so than logicians, who worry about foundations. As for the sciences, the luckiest is physics. If a molecule is too big, or some other system too complex, they handed over to the chemists — who do the same with the biologists — who proceed to the psychological sciences — and then on to history and literature. And of course depth of explanation is necessarily sacrificed along the way as complexity mounts. There are a few exceptions. Parts of linguistics, for example. It would be good to widen that bridgehead, but not easy. Valeria hasn't been able to leave yet. Maybe in a couple of days. From: jeffrey E.

One problem is a fundamental difference between math and science. When a math problem is posed and solved, it's solved. There's a proof. There are no proofs in the empirical world. Just better theories, that could be (and usually are) at least partially wrong. From: Jeffrey E.
