“I think that there is only one way to science or to philosophy, for that matter to meet a problem, to see its beauty and fall in love with it to get married to it and to live with it happily, till death do ye part” ~ Karl Popper

Realism and the aim of science

incremental scope of falsification is the breath of science.

Hears: Progress is INFINITE
Thinks: Heat Death of Universe in 10^100 years.
NOPE. PROGRESS IS NOT INFINITE.

Science builds upon itself and that's what makes it beautiful. It's a great way of accepting our limits yet also getting as close to the truth as possible.

Not sure I love the framing here. I don’t think it’s quite the full story to say Newton’s theory of gravitation was proven “false”. These equations are still used in most aerospace applications, and any terrestrial applications one could care to consider. They clearly “work”. Of course, general relativity more accurately describes a wider ranger of conditions. But the term “false” here is doing some particular, pedantic work, and assuming a certain ultimate and disembodied context. I’ll grant its falsehood in that single context, however this context is not the one in which humans live or make decisions. If we’re going to use the same word “false” for truth seeking in other contexts, we are not going to be able to have a very good conversation. David Bohm wrote a book on special relativity (he worked under Einstein), and has a wonderful essay in the back of that book on the philosophical implications of the discovery of relativity theory on Newtonian physics. He gets it, and does not succumb to the problem (read: cognitive inflexibility) that the person speaking does. Namely, that of confusing a relative insight for an absolute insight — hilariously, the very thing he appears to be speaking against.

So he is saying unless we have better theory we can't falsified any theory, I think it's bullshit, there are so many theories we found just false not because we got better theory in place of it but simply we found wrong experimentally.

Science
The middle word is "E"
So that would probably mean Eternal
