In this episode Danny discusses the concept of “what is science?” with input from:
- Andy Galpin, PhD
- Brad Dieter, PhD
- John Kiely
- Trent Stellingwerf, PhD
- Mike T Nelson, PhD
- Ciaran O’ Regan
- What is science meant to be? What is science pragmatically?
- “Science doesn’t prove anything it just reduces uncertainty”
- If you want to know something better, it takes concentrated cognitive effort and thinking. Wrestle with difficult ideas. Don’t just consume
- What information do you have that you can collect, how does that inform your mental model? And how do you test that model
- Crucially, how do you disprove that model?
- Application: explicit vs. tacit knowledge. (Tacit = coach intuition)
- Adding that knowledge to a larger body of evidence
- You don’t identified as your views, but as the being that has certain views that are subject to change
- Far important how you think than what you think
