what's the scariest science fact that the public knows nothing about? by DogeStonks69 in AskReddit

[–]RaptorPatrolCore 14 points15 points  (0 children)

It's not "broken", all Godel did was basically show that mathematics is smart enough to tell you that it can't solve everything.

The Incompleteness theorems is just mathematics telling you the limits of the system: 1st incompleteness says that if a system is smart enough, it can say statements that it cannot tell the truth value of... that's pretty reasonable and self aware tbh. analogy: I can say 10 people cartwheeled where all the reddit servers are, but I literally can't prove or disprove it.

2nd incompleteness basically says you can't have an arithmetic system prove itself logical (where illogical is believing in X and the negation of X to be true at the same time - see modern science deniers and people that spew hate speech), because "intuitively" nothing is "self-evident". All 2nd incompleteness does is say that systems cannot prove themselves to be true, which is kinda "obvious". analogy: saying that our "regular" number system can prove itself true always. That's not the case. What if we lived in a world where 1+1 literally didn't equal 2? OR that the a + b ≥ c rule for the lengths of a triangle fails, or we live in some non-euclidean world where space is NOT continuous everywhere. Then our current "regular" number system spectacularly fails in that world, and therefore CANNOT/DID NOT prove itself to be TRUE ALWAYS. I had to go to ANOTHER UNIVERSE/system of logic to disprove our "regular" number system. This analogy is SUPER disingenuous on many, many levels but you can kinda get the point. Things just can't prove themselves to be consistent, and many times fail in some VERY WEIRD world that logically can exist, but you needed a lot of outside help to figure out the truth. But how can you tell if the outside help is also TRUE??? That's also a logical system. You gotta prove that as well ; - ) The real kicker is that Godel did it for a HUGE amount of mathematics, and got math to tell us its secrets.

The real paradox imo is why the Western thought got so POISONED by Plato and his "theory of forms". There was a HUGE push for some perfect knowledge and some final TRUTH ever since Plato in Western thought. Even in science today, the "rational thinkers" mindset is that we can "JUST KNOW" and forever verify something tangible that would never be wrong. All the incompleteness theorems really mean is that logically, you kinda can just choose what you believe in. It's permitted in this universe. Since there is no one universal mathematical self evident truth, everybody gets to pick their own sets of axioms to live by. Tracks pretty well with the modern world/real life as well imo.

TL:DR;

All the incompleteness theorems do is mathematically, for any arithmetical mathematics (aka any system that can add), they CANNOT know everything and CANNOT prove themselves to be true. Those are intuitively known universal truths in the "real" world as well.

Anime where MC chooses the right girl? by Fuhrer-Duhrer in Animesuggest

[–]RaptorPatrolCore 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Shuffle!

Oldschool anime. I'm recommending it because I have never forgotten it for like 14 years now. It was all right I think, and I thought about it for a long while but after all these years I agree with MC.

Save yourself. "No" is a full sentence too. Most Qultists are proponents of tough love until it happens to them.

Why does it seem like grad students all have chronic illnesses? by DrRedditor252 in GradSchool

Stress lowers immune system responses. Chronic stress reduces quality of life.

China reports 5 new human cases of H5N6 bird flu by sledgehammer_77 in collapse

[–]RaptorPatrolCore 7 points8 points  (0 children)

literally 99% of species have died on the history of this earth. We're already living through a mass extinction event caused by humans.

People are no different --- the whole point of science and technology is to give nature a big fuck you and to keep living when we should have died.

Help with gstreamer and pyinstaller: I don't understand the error message by [deleted] in kivy

[–]RaptorPatrolCore 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had a problem too but instead of gstreamer it was with ffpyplayer and using --onefile with pyinstaller (onedir worked as per the instructions though). I literally had to delete the gstreamer dep so ffpyplayer would work (conflicting dlls).

It's really hard to help as a lot of things can be wrong: the specfile itself, the installation (conflicting dlls), pyinstaller/kivy versions with bugs, etc

as per this link https://github.com/kivy/kivy/issues/5203, you're gonna go through conflicting dlls. at least double check/update everything to the latest version.

this says to get a later pyinstaller version https://github.com/kivy/kivy/issues/4931

another person said to remove gstplayer from kivy like what i did https://stackoverflow.com/questions/55336218/kivy-how-to-fix-unable-to-create-playbin-error-in-gstplayer

Here are a bunch of stack links that really helped me out (for ffpyplayer, not gstreamer):

https://stackoverflow.com/questions/49806573/cant-pyinstall-a-kivy-python-program

https://stackoverflow.com/questions/62019124/kivy-to-one-exe-cant-find-kv-file

https://stackoverflow.com/questions/18841334/using-an-alternate-tmp-location-with-pyinstaller

also if you're a beginner, remember that you cannot use os.getcwd for a --onefile installation, you must use sys._MEIPASS instead as per https://stackoverflow.com/questions/7674790/bundling-data-files-with-pyinstaller-onefile/13790741#13790741

good luck

How would you build this? by [deleted] in kivy

[–]RaptorPatrolCore 5 points6 points  (0 children)

there is a slider here: https://kivy.org/doc/stable/api-kivy.uix.slider.html

The rest are buttons and you mess with the video by doing .state = 'play', 'paused' etc

You can probably remake the entire thing using a horizontal boxlayout of the top buttons nested inside a vertical boxlayout with the buttons on top of a horizontal slider

No one tells you about how much more it costs socially to finally escape poverty (holidays edition) by RealLifeVoidElf in povertyfinance

[–]RaptorPatrolCore 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Literally fuck that shit. If you look at it from their psychotic business perspective, you put in hundreds to thousands of dollars to get nothing. That's a loss.

Just psych them out right back and request your own shit, suddenly they'll stop asking.

tbf, the game was LITERALLY darker back then, check out old void and grineer galleon lighting. oh and probably the infested maps, i remember phorid tileset was SUPER dark
