It's easy -- make up some new rule of logic or science
like photons are not particles (i.e. information carriers),
don't travel in straight lines, and are "promises of an interaction"
and can turn up anywhere anytime with no reason given.

Dunning-Kruger Effect: Ignorance and Overconfidence Affect Intuitive Thinking,
New Study Says
The Debrief, 13 Apr 2021
In a newly published study, researchers say the Dunning-Kruger Effect
can cause low-performers to overestimate their judgments during the
intuitive decision-making process.
According to the study published in the journal Frontiers in
Psychology on April 8, 2021, researchers found that persons with the
highest number of errors demonstrated the highest degree of
miscalibration, or overconfidence, in their actual performance on the
cognitive reflection test.

/D\ would have no way to know how to do that.
If he confuses science with geometry what kind of a hash
would be hake of derriving the 5% confidence interval of some beta
and showing 0 was inside it?
I for one do not want to find out. :)

[Ongoing Delusion?]
You have been stupid enough to write: "If a theory A predicts B and we
observe B then we have evidence the theory is true" and you are telling
me that pointing your error is some sophistry?
-- Paul Aubrin <***@free.fr>, 08 Jul 2012 18:36:01 GMT

You said also that you agreed with the following proposition "If a theory
A predicts B and we observe B then we have evidence the theory is true".
Do you agree it is a remarkable delusion ? Do you agree that denying it
is a logical fallacy is not creeping denialism, but a full deception.
-- Paul /D\ubrin <***@free.fr>, 08 Jul 2012 19:17:54 GMT

There is a consensus that A => B and B is true does not imply
anything on A.
-- Paul /D\ubrin <***@free.fr>, 08 Jul 2012 12:46:34 GMT


Making successful predictions is the gold standard of science. If a
theory successfully predicts phenomena that are later observed, one
can be confident that the theory captures something essential about
the real world system.

It is an interesting question: Who does have the burden of proof here?

If I assert that the world is round, and you claim otherwise, who has the
burden of proof?
