APTiger ‒ Chat FELINT27 🙀 🐱<p>Ce que je vais dire là relève du témoignage personnel dont une partie est subjective et une partie relève de l'opinion :</p><p>J'utilise souvent l'anecdote comme illustration. Soit comme illustration de connaissances académiques, soit pour exposer des situations et des faits qui sont documentés académiquement, ou parfois qui ne le sont pas (quoi qu'en on dise, il existe encore des sujets, des situations et des faits auxquels les chercheurs académiques ne se sont pas ou peu intéressés, faut-il donc considérer que tout ce qui n'est pas ou pas encore documenté, ou ce qui est avancé sans preuves serait nécessairement un mensonge ou une preuve de mythomanie) comme un schéma illustre un propos en sciences physiques (même si, plus ou moins souvent, j'évite délibérément de donner trop de détails et que j'occulte volontairement des informations).</p><p>Quand le docteur en sciences physiques Richard Feynman (sans prétendre être au même niveau que lui) qui n'ignorait pas la méthode scientifique ni le principe scientifique selon lequel les anecdotes et l'expérience personnelle n'ont pas de valeur scientifique propre et qui pourtant pratiquait lui aussi la méthode hypothético-déductive ; et qui était friand d'anecdotes, de plaisanteries espiègles, de tours de prestidigitation, de pratique du pentesting physique et autres farces et attrapes, notamment dans ses exposés scientifiques et ses cours mais aussi pour stimuler l'esprit critique de certains de ses interlocuteurs trop sûrs d'eux-mêmes, illustrait un cours d'informatique quantique par un schéma, ce schéma n'avait en réalité par de valeur complètement exhaustive car il aurait pu présenter un autre schéma par exemple sous un autre angle ou légèrement différent, donc bien sûr ni l'anecdote ou l'expérience personnelle ni le schéma n'ont de portée scientifique universelle, mais ils peuvent venir en renfort.</p><p>Au devant de la multiplication des contenus conspirationnistes, anti-science, et pseudoscientifiques sur les réseaux sociaux, l'anecdote a subi un bashing par contre-coup, et cela m'a moi-même semblé un temps justifié. Cependant, j'ai aussi pu constater que la mise au banc ou la mise en marge peut aller très vite, pas par malveillance ni volonté de nuire mais comme effet secondaire involontaire et contre-productif de la multiplication exponentielle de la désinformation et des contenus problématiques sur les réseaux sociaux.</p><p>Pendant longtemps, j'ai cité des sources, ou avancé des éléments de preuves quand je ne pouvais pas prouver la totalité de mes témoignages sur des situations ou des faits peu ou pas documentés, jusqu'à ce que je finisse par me décourager et laisser tomber car le plus souvent, mes interlocuteurs ne lisaient même pas mes sources et/ou me fournissaient des sources qu'ils n'avaient semble-t-il même pas lues car elles disaient parfois le contraire ou pas exactement ce qu'ils affirmaient pour contester mes affirmations.</p><p><a href="https://soc.intxiv.io/tags/Science" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Science</span></a> <a href="https://soc.intxiv.io/tags/Sciences" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Sciences</span></a> <a href="https://soc.intxiv.io/tags/scientifique" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>scientifique</span></a> <a href="https://soc.intxiv.io/tags/pseudosciences" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>pseudosciences</span></a> <a href="https://soc.intxiv.io/tags/pseudoscience" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>pseudoscience</span></a> <a href="https://soc.intxiv.io/tags/antiscience" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>antiscience</span></a> <a href="https://soc.intxiv.io/tags/d%C3%A9sinformation" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>désinformation</span></a> <a href="https://soc.intxiv.io/tags/fakenews" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>fakenews</span></a></p>
Cowboy Cat Ranch<p>Ever read a scientific study with only 50 meaningful words in the Results section? </p><p>I just did. </p><p>"Cats spent significantly less time exploring and in proximity to the treatment garbage can than to the control garbage can.

Different Than<p>Apparently "The Secret" is just the "law of attraction," a thing wealthy people have told less-wealthy people for the past 125 years: personal wealth is 100% due to personal choices, and if you're not wealthy--even if you're a refugee in Darfur--your life circumstances are your fault for not thinking positively enough? And tens of millions of non-wealthy people pay the wealthy people to tell them this, blaming themselves for not being wealthy, failing to see that the wealth of their life gurus came from convincing people like them to pay them for this?</p><p>I get why Oprah and other ultra-rich people like this "philosophy": it is Chicken Soup[1] for the Billionaire Soul, reassuring the rich that their wealth is evidence they are better people than everyone else, not a badge of unthinkable overconsumption. I don't totally understand why all the middle class people fall for it.</p><p>Sometimes my faith in the basic thinking processes of my fellow humans (maybe just Americans) takes a vicious body blow.</p><p>[1] The Secret is by the same dudes who wrote the literally hundreds of Chicken Soup for the Soul books.</p><p><a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/chickensoupforthesoul" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>chickensoupforthesoul</span></a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/woo" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>woo</span></a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/bullshit" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>bullshit</span></a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/billionaires" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>billionaires</span></a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/pseudoscience" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>pseudoscience</span></a></p>
