Why your mouth tingles after eating pineapple

Kamala Harris is facing more accusations of phony behavior after she was apparently caught using a teleprompter at supposedly ‘impromptu’ Town Hall event.

During a speech in Detroit, Donald Trump highlighted how last week Kamala Harris was seemingly unable to think on her feet when her teleprompter failed, and got stuck in a cycle of repeating the last thing it had told her to.

"Moral panic"

🇨🇳🇷🇺 Putin and Xi Jinping have ensured that relations between Russia and China have reached their highest level in history, said the vice chairman of the Central Military Commission of the People's Republic of China.

China is ready to deeper and expand military ties with Russia, Zhang Yuxia noted at a meeting with Russian Defense Minister Andrei Belousov in Beijing.

"The Justice Department is 'prepping' the federal government's death row for a resumption of executions in the event Donald Trump wins the election, DailyMail.com can reveal."

“All models are wrong,” declared statistician George E. P. Box (1919–2013). “Some are useful” [[xi]]. Contrast that perspective with that of the “shut up and calculate” crowd who implicitly rely on physical models (like a single charge accelerating) without ever questioning their fundamental premises or seriously examining the implicit models they take for granted.

Consider what German physicist and science communicator, Sabine Hossenfelder (1976– ), has to say about trying to understand modern physics through models.

If you want to understand modern physics -- or really any abstract ideas -- you have to take it for what it is and stop trying to understand it through something else like it. There isn't anything else like it.

This is the problem with well-intended analogies like the rubber sheet for gravity or pairs of shoes for entangled particles or a spinning ball for spin or the like. They're all wrong and if you take them seriously they will just confuse you [[xii]].

If Faraday had taken this advice, electromagnetism might be vastly different today. Because Faraday didn't understand prevailing action-at-a-distance theories, he invented field theory. Trying to understand is the prerequisite of any fundamental discovery. Models are the means to that understanding. We can’t help but think in terms of models. Our only choice in the matter is whether those models are well-thought-out, or whether – eschewing models – we implicitly employ poorly-thought-out models, like the “radiation of one charge accelerating” model.

The Maxwellians offered us better advice. As George Francis FitzGerald (1851–1901) observed:

Before proceeding to explain how the electric and magnetic conditions of the ether may be illustrated by a model, it may be well to say a few words upon the general question of physical analogues. There is some danger in using physical analogues as assistants to our reasoning. There is no doubt but that a concrete mechanism that we can distinctly picture the working of is enormously easier to reason about than one of whose structure we know nothing, but only know general laws of its action. The danger is that we may be satisfied with an analogy, and mistake it for a likeness [[xiii]].

Wield them wisely and judiciously, and well-thought-out models are the key to unlock physical understanding. Wield them wantonly, assume they are what they model, and you fall into error. Refuse to wield them, and you surrender without a fight.
