Science is a few things:
1. Knowledge (this is where the word comes from) to be acquired and information that can be applied (technology, chemistry, cooking, etc, are all applied sciences)
2. The method of “fuck around and find out” (causality/repeatability as it is - with the additional nuances of the reproducibility crisis - each stroke of a paint brush won’t be exactly the same - things like the big bang already happened - etc) which is the bare minimum of science - “remember kids, the only real difference between proper science and fucking around is writing is down”
3. The scientific community and overall consensus, peer review, scientific dogma (consider that half of the scientific community can’t even tell you what a woman is - it is perhaps a borderline cult at present), etc, that ostracizes dissent and divergent thinking
4. Physics, nature, reality, as it is - Einstein himself did not see science as merely something to apply in the one sided sense; he saw it as a background symphony, playing its cosmic tune independently of our ability to listen in; it lies in wait for all time; “the music of the spheres”; he directly compared it to Mozart “locating” already existent beauty, or harmony, while people like Beethoven merely constructed their music
Any questions?

Why isn't the fundamental theorem of calculus an ontological principle, with the dialectic of cumulative and instantaneous change present in every aspect of reality?Given that modern physics began with calculus, and it is still essential for modern physics, would it be that surprising to find out that the heart of calculus describes the nature of reality itself?

Scoence is a natural philosophy under which unobserved phenomena are extrapolated from observed phenomena.
It is not the knowledge itself.
It is not the way you aquire knowledge.
It is absolutely not a collection of institutions.
It is a world view through which one can attempt to understand the natural world "as it is."At its core is the concept of uniformitarianism. That is "the fundamental nature of reality does not vary with space and time." If you do the same thing in two places at two different times, the same outcome will occur. Otherwise, there is something different about what you did.Any questions?

I love how simple science is at its basest and yet people are pretentious enough to pretend that it’s not

>Einstein music analogy
what the fuck is that supposed to mean?
musical pleasure is based on a mixture of learned cultural schemata and evolutionary response to cycles of consonance and dissonance in auditory stimulus as an analogy for tension and release in other expressions of consciousness, such as storytelling or sex. There is nothing more objectively true about this for Mozart's music than Beethoven's. It's just a matter of personal preferencethe rest of the shit you typed out was even dumber than that. go sit in a corner and think about your life

I used the scientific method and AI to produce original novel results for quantum information theory. at least 1 original paper.Don't believe me? All u have to do is show this image to ur smartest AI and ask what it means.

Science is incredibly simple. Pretending it isn't is disrespectful. Not that science can't become overbearingly complex, it's just overbearingly simple at its most basest.
