Episode 77 - Karl Popper’s “restrictions” to thinking/ reasoning and why they are so powerful

from Rapid Idea Improvement · host Bart Vanderhaegen

I am discussing the list of "constraints" that Popper applies to critical and rational thinking: No confirmation or verification of a theory is possible No induction without error correction allowed No credences for theories, that's useless No absolute sources of knowledge exist No foundations of knowledge exist No certainty possible No recognition of truth is possible No forecasts possible No safe/ general claims allowed No explanation less content allowed No direct observation possible
