Alternative "Scientific Methods"

_I) The classical scientific method, dating back to Bacon.
_II) The "Double Helix" method of gaining scientific fame and fortune:
_III) The "Bioassay" method, (which was very popular from the 1930s until recently).
_IV) The "Genetic Screen" method (which is now as heavily used as the bioassay method once was).

1. Acquire basic competency in whatever field of science your discovery belongs to.
2. Understand, and make a good-faith effort to confront, the fundamental objections to your claims within established science.
3. Present your discovery in a way that is complete, transparent, and unambiguous.

Socrates was the first great educator of the human race (at least in the West) – and, arguably, its greatest. It is important to consider how he viewed and practiced education:
1. He did not have a school: he worked in the main square of the city;
2. He did not have a classroom: he worked in the open air;
3. He did not work with groups: he worked with one person at a time;
4. He did not have students: he had partners in dialogue and in learning;
5. He did not have a curriculum: he discussed anything in which his dialogue partners were interested;
6. He did not really answer the questions of his dialogue partners: he replied to a question always with another question, to stimulate them to find the answer themselves;
7. He saw his task as similar to that of the midwife: to draw out successfully, through plain conversation, what is already inside the mind of his dialogue partner, because it is there, in the mind, that ideas are conceived;
8. He did not use any learning resource except interaction and dialogue;
9. He was suspicious of rhetorical oratory, speech making, lecturing, and teaching, because these methods go all in a single direction, are not two way, and so do not favor interaction and dialogue;
10. For the same reason, he was suspicious of books, because they likewise do not favor interaction and dialogue.
1. Work at Socrates' Athens Square online.
2. Move internet outside.
3. Work with individuals, but let the public read the discussions.
4. Partner with readers.
5. Discuss whatever readers have interest in.
6. Answer questions with questions.
7. Help readers develop their ideas.
8. Use memory [& internet etc] as resources.
9. Discourage one-way communication.
10. Encourage interaction, not censorship.
Scholarly snowball: Deep learning paper generates big online collaboration

*The Flat Earth Psyop: Everything Old is New Again
mileswmathis.com/flat.pdf
The moribund Zetetic Society was rebirthed as the Flat Earth Society in 1956 by Samuel Shenton. Despite having allegedly dropped out of elementary school and being a Flat Earth promoter, he was elected into the Royal Astronomical and Royal Geographic societies. This makes no sense, unless we understand that Shenton was actually enlisted as an ally of the scientific aristocracy. So we see the Flat Earth society coming right out of the Royal Scientific Societies in the 1950s, just as it is now coming right out of NASA and SpaceX. Apparently it had been decided long ago that accusing someone of being a Flat Earther would be a good way for the mainstream to discredit those who criticized accepted dogma. ... Some current stars [celebrities] claim to be Flat Earthers .... If you don't think NASA or SpaceX is 100% legit, you may be lumped in with those known brainacs.

2. Understand, and make a good-faith effort to confront, the fundamental objections to your claims within established science.
3. Present your discovery in a way that is complete, transparent, and unambiguous.

Citizen Science
qdl.scs-inc.us/?top=7893
Socrates was the first great educator of the human race (at least in the West) – and, arguably, its greatest. It is important to consider how he viewed and practiced education:
1. He did not have a school: he worked in the main square of the city;
2. He did not have a classroom: he worked in the open air;
3. He did not work with groups: he worked with one person at a time;
4. He did not have students: he had partners in dialogue and in learning;
5. He did not have a curriculum: he discussed anything in which his dialogue partners were interested;
6. He did not really answer the questions of his dialogue partners: he replied to a question always with another question, to stimulate them to find the answer themselves;
7. He saw his task as similar to that of the midwife: to draw out successfully, through plain conversation, what is already inside the mind of his dialogue partner, because it is there, in the mind, that ideas are conceived;
8. He did not use any learning resource except interaction and dialogue;
9. He was suspicious of rhetorical oratory, speech making, lecturing, and teaching, because these methods go all in a single direction, are not two way, and so do not favor interaction and dialogue;
10. For the same reason, he was suspicious of books, because they likewise do not favor interaction and dialogue.
1. Work at Socrates' Athens Square online.
2. Move internet outside.
3. Work with individuals, but let the public read the discussions.
4. Partner with readers.
5. Discuss whatever readers have interest in.
6. Answer questions with questions.
7. Help readers develop their ideas.
8. Use memory [& internet etc] as resources.
9. Discourage one-way communication.
10. Encourage interaction, not censorship.
Scholarly snowball: Deep learning paper generates big online collaboration

*The Flat Earth Psyop: Everything Old is New Again
mileswmathis.com/flat.pdf
The moribund Zetetic Society was rebirthed as the Flat Earth Society in 1956 by Samuel Shenton. Despite having allegedly dropped out of elementary school and being a Flat Earth promoter, he was elected into the Royal Astronomical and Royal Geographic societies. This makes no sense, unless we understand that Shenton was actually enlisted as an ally of the scientific aristocracy. So we see the Flat Earth society coming right out of the Royal Scientific Societies in the 1950s, just as it is now coming right out of NASA and SpaceX. Apparently it had been decided long ago that accusing someone of being a Flat Earther would be a good way for the mainstream to discredit those who criticized accepted dogma. ... Some current stars [celebrities] claim to be Flat Earthers .... If you don't think NASA or SpaceX is 100% legit, you may be lumped in with those known brainacs.
