    Everything goes through our brains and therefore filters and interpretations. Science doesn’t happen if grants are approved and that usually means someone has something to gain. Even then, results are skewed by method and biases.

    Science very much does care about our feelings, both individual and collective, every step of the way. That’s why there needs to be special care to take them out as much as possible.





  • The distinction is usually completely omitted. Java as a language is fine if a little verbose, but the JVM is a pain. And you really only realize the difference once you use either with alternatives, like Scala in the JVM or Java as a cross compilation language. A tutorial would have to be “this is how you write a main class/function in this language, for/while/in keywords etc., but in a JVM environment you need a File, a BufferedReader, and a BufferedWriter to open a file and read/write to it. StringBuffer is standard library and part of the language, using Scala will allow functional aspects, but the file handling remains.”
