The bunkmeister speaks!

As my high school math teacher used to say, “Empty barrels make the most noise.” Boy, did he ever get that right!

In the realm of popularized “science” there’s no emptier barrel than Neil DeGrasse Tyson. Real scientists who just do their work and never get showcased on PBS are not the subject of this essay. They exist, and we are thankful for them. But Neil DeGrasse Tyson is a clanging ding-dong.

One’s “gender,” he bloviates–and the whole science of biology– “is subordinate to the gender they display in their clothes and makeup” (https://www.breitbart.com/health/2023/08/02/watch-science-explainer-degrasse-tyson-converts-transgenderism/). Oh! So what you wear determines what you are?

Please tell me he doesn’t really believe that. I’ll be charitable, and say he’s only just another empty barrel trying to latch on to current politics: a kind of prostitute who poses as a scientist.

No wonder communists think all it’ll take is one more push and adios, America.

‘Can Fools Create Wise Computers?’ (2014)

I like to re-run this piece now and then, because so many people seem to think computers will lead them to the promised land or something.  They seem to forget that these are inanimate objects–things created by human hands.

Can Fools Create Wise Computers?

Does it stand to reason nincompoops and sinners can create perfection? Paradise? That we don’t need God… because we’ve got Neil DeGrasse Tyson?

Yeahbut, yeahbut! They’ve got chess computers that are way better than chess masters! *Sigh* It’s only a simulation, dude. The super chess computers “know” only what human chess experts have programmed them to know. But in terms of consciousness, they don’t knoiw anything at all.
