diffhist Falsifiability 21:06 −749 Dominic Mayers talk contribs (This addition to the RI does not summarize any part of the article. The RI cannot discuss all criticisms. The criticism that falsifiability does not reject false theories can only come from someone who understands that falsifiability says nothing about the (empirical) falsity of a theory. Moreover, this person must fail to take into account that it is impossible to rigorously demonstrate that a theory is (empirically) false. Few people satisfy these conditions. This is a rare criticism.)

I removed the nested sfn, because they are shorthand for ref notes and, I believe, ref notes cannot be nested, not in a reflist anyway. If does not remove the error message, I will put them back.)

diffhist Falsifiability 03:56 +43 Dominic Mayers talk contribs (→Creativity versus induction: This is what the source says. The previous version suggested that Feyerabend retracted his general position, which is certainly not true: he always maintained that no such rules exist.) Tag: Visual edit
diffhist Falsifiability 03:51 −114 Dominic Mayers talk contribs (→Creativity versus induction: It is certainly not only Popper who rejects an inductive methodology as defined and rejected by Hume and nevertheless desired by Russell, the Vienna Circle, Lakatos, etc. The problem here is that it is very difficult to make a simple general statement, because there are different views on what induction means. If we say something like « induction is generally considered impossible », we have the problem that Bayesian induction is certainly possible, etc.) Tag: Visual edit

diffhist Falsifiability 02:33 +29 Dominic Mayers talk contribs (→State of affairs as falsifier versus actual falsification: The purpose of a state of affairs used as a falsifier is not to prevent the use of methodological arguments and thus to protect theories. It is almost the opposite. It is itself immune to these methodological considerations, because it is a logical concept. Moreover, it serves to define falsifiability, a condition that makes methodological critiques possible, which is the opposite of preventing them.) Tag: Visual edit
