higgs field gives mass iirc

I do not remember my particle physics class at all
despite having just taken it
higgs field doesn't even give most pass pika
most mass is just from energy density
Literally never even took a physics class in highschool
and I never took a particle physics course
yet Pika did
its a fake science
its bad
its magic with deep lore
GR and quantum theory are cooler
Honestly kinda sounds like fun stuff
although that is all particle physics is anyways
I'd rather do particle physics then gr
Particle physics is just the engineering version of quantum field theory
thats not actually how the word theory works in science
Isn't particle physics just quantum physics
except when it comes to biology
yes that is what I am saying
it is just quantum field theory
it means it is generally accepted after slews of experimental evidence is collected to back it up
Isn't that all science
except biology
Idk what the word was
a theory in the normal sense is closer to a hypothesis
Like laws or whatever are never proven until they aren't and we have to change them to make them make sense
And we always change them
laws are things we assume to be true
that are fundemental
same idea as axioms in mathematics
Ok so it was laws then
Ok yup
sometimes the word law is missused though
So other then laws, what would something that is proven be called
theory
you can't prove things in science
you explain things with models
you can only disprove things or find agreement to some arbitrarily high accuracy
So all there is is laws then
you can't prove things in science x2
you go on and use your model to investigate further
Honestly kinda makes sense
Hypothetically speaking you cannot fire
math is the only thing you can make objective claims in
Becuese a later law can disprove another law
what if there is another mechanism that exactly solves the problem you had
But thats becues we created and defined math
We don't create and define science
We observe it
we model it
science usually relies on occums razor, aka the simpliest explanation is usually better. We do not know if that is nescicarrily true
and considering the number of unsolved physics problems, it probably is not true
theory of everything is just trying to make a unified model
So be vague enough to make it true enough
model precision
You make a model, test it, then if the model works for what you know, try to use it to predict new things
if the new thing you predict does not exist, you need a new model
and if your model predicts successfully its validated
otherwise continue forever
lol climate science
On the tierlist of sciences, that one is low down
science
You can do valid scientific work about the climate
science tier list
Theoretical Knot Theory is SSS Tier
bottom to top tier list
Oh dang, that's neat
Knot Theory
Topology
Quantum Computer Science
Differential Equations
Abstract Algebra
String Theory
Other Maths
Cosmology
Quantum Field Theory
Chemistry
Kinematics
everything else
Cellular Biology
Climate "science"
Functional BiologyI vibe with that
I don't
Ope
string theory should be with everyting else
Definitely not 1 to 1
quantum computer science << quantum theory
and no mention of relativity
Personally chaos/fractals should be on the higher part of the tierlist
thats a lot of fun
