Modern Science Has Brought Us.....eh......nothing

Some people here like to say tings without any investigation at all!

Really, the transistor was invented before the quantum hoax theory!

Here ya go...

Lilienfield Acknowledged As Pioneer

In an address to the American Institute of Physics in 1988, Bardeen acknowledged the great credit due Lilienfeld for his pioneering efforts to make the semiconductor amplifier. In the 1920s, Lilienfeld could not have understood the physics of the field-effect semiconductor amplifier, as the quantum theory of solids was still several years away. Nevertheless, he had a good intuitive feel for a new approach to electronics. In Bardeen’s own words, “Lilienfeld had the basic concept of controlling the flow of current in a semiconductor to make an amplifying device. It took many years of theory development and material technology to make his dream a reality.”

Hence, the Nobel price was NOT deserved. like the rest of them.

Um, what part of " It took many years of theory development and material technology to make his dream a reality" don't you understand? An amplifier is a long way from a transistor which can not just amplify but turn on and off the flow of electricity is fundamentally different application. Just because they used the same materials doesn't mean it's "the same thing."

Your argument about not deserving a Nobel prize is akin to saying that because of Michelson and Morely, Einstein does not deserve his Nobel either.

Against logic there is no armor like ignorance, :phones:

And then there is the non-neccesity of relativity for the gps:

(really relativty is one big joke!!)

To offset these two effects, the GPS engineers reset the clock rates, slowing them down before launch by 39,000 nanoseconds a day. They then proceed to tick in orbit at the same rate as ground clocks, and the system "works." Ground observers can indeed pin-point their position to a high degree of precision. In (Einstein) theory, however, it was expected that because the orbiting clocks all move rapidly and with varying speeds relative to any ground observer (who may be anywhere on the Earth's surface), and since in Einstein's theory the relevant speed is always speed relative to the observer, it was expected that continuously varying relativistic corrections would have to be made to clock rates. This in turn would have introduced an unworkable complexity into the GPS. But these corrections were not made. Yet "the system manages to work, even though they use no relativistic corrections after launch," Van Flandern said. "They have basically blown off Einstein."

And so it is with the rest of the more then ridiculous `Modern Science´, an oxymoron if you dig deep enough.

( I am wandering what Buffy is doing, it looks like she is defending her very wrong religious beliefs, but who cares?)

Oh so you're a Tom Van Flandern disciple, eh? That explains a thing or two. He's the guy who was absolutely sure the Face of Mars was made by aliens. How "scientific"....

Tom Bethell is an enabler of charlatans too, so just about anything that comes out of his pen is probably of questionable substance.

Now the "fact" you're quoting here is based on the supposed "unworkable complexity" of performing the calculations in real time. What's so stupid about this--and what is actually referenced in the quote you've used--is that because the satellite has a known orbit, the computation is done, yes, not "after launch," but BEFORE launch. You can read up on this computation here. (Actually some computations are done after the fact to adjust for eccentric orbits, but computational complexity is not really the issue that Van Flandern breathlessly claimed).

Redefining a problem so that it's insoluble is the most common modus operandi of conspiracy nuts.

For those of you who'd like an entertaining expose of what a charlatan Van Flandern (sadly) became, here's a great article.

I should get one of those signs that says "One of these days I'm gonna get organezized" :phones:

"Modern Physics" is obsolete

“It is a strange thought, but I believe a correct one, that twenty or thirty pages of ideas and information would be capable of turning the present-day world upside down, or even destroying it. I have often tried to conceive of what those pages might contain, but of course I am a prisoner of the present-day world, just as all of you are. We cannot think outside the particular patterns that our brains are conditioned to, or, to be more accurate, we can only think a very little way outside, and then only if we are very original.”
—Fred Hoyle, Of Men and Galaxies

And, again, optics is NOT because of "Modern physics" far far far from it:

Abū ʿAlī al-Ḥasan ibn al-Ḥasan ibn al-Haytham (Arabic: أبو علي الحسن بن الحسن بن الهيثم, Latinized: Alhacen or (deprecated) Alhazen) (965 – 1039), was an Arab^[1] or Persian^[2] Muslim polymath who made significant contributions to the principles of optics, as well as to anatomy, astronomy, engineering, mathematics, medicine, ophthalmology, philosophy, physics, psychology, visual perception, and to science in general with his introduction of the scientific method.

As you can see, "Modern science" has Hijacked a lot of things and called it her own, so in reality she is a THIEF

and the list goes on and on and Buffy or whatever her name talked about cars, well they also have nothing to do with

; modern physics' Nothing at all!

let's just see:

Turbocharging:

The idea of turbo-compressing seems to come from the 1890s and became widely known in less than a decade, starting around 1900. By about 1905, centrifugal compression was in use in marine engines and other heavy-duty applications. That same year, Swiss engineer Dr. Alfred Büchi patented an exhaust-driven turbocharger in what we’d consider a modern configuration. - See more at: http://blog.hemmings.com/index.php/2011/01/18/nothing-new-7-modern-car-technologies-actually-100-years-old/#sthash.tOeejhAT.dpuf
