Post-Empirical Science?
The author would do well to read more philosophy of science. Popper&#x27;s over a century old; Quine&#x27;s only just recently closer to Popper than to us! And the author doesn&#x27;t even <i>know</i> about Quine.<p>Edit: In particular, while Popper was very concerned with <i>falsifiability</i> and how to reject pseudoscience, Quine was concerned with <i>compatibility</i> and how well different theories fit together. Quine&#x27;s view is useful for physics because it immediately highlights that relativity and QM work very well within themselves, but not with each other; therefore we know exactly where the interesting scientific discoveries ought to be found.
