@Jrc_1982 @BigBadP@amal_shura They were equal with FIA applying their own rules completely and properly. Then Max was only allowed to cross the line first by the FIA breaching its own regulations. Therefore, it's 8.
@engineers_feed The simplest way to think of this is which one moves the 10kg weight vertically upwards (against gravity) the least. In A, when you pull the rope 10cm, the 10kg weight moves 10cm upwards. In B, when you pull the rope 10cm, it moves less upwards. Therefore you need less force.
@RyanBrinks @amal_shura You can't compare like that. Hamilton had a more capable team mate who could take points off him when the Mclaren was stronger.
@elias_baa@MaduTgn@GeromanAT Yeah, I quoted.... who? Or, did I link to a research paper? I know this is a difficult one, but maybe in the process of answering it you'll have an awakening.
@elias_baa@MaduTgn@GeromanAT Scientific method does NOT mean, and has NEVER meant, 'find guys who made a comment which may disagree with this article, but probably not, and if you don't include all of those (negative only) then we'll ignore your well researched findings'.
@elias_baa@MaduTgn@GeromanAT So what Twitter should really be is a group of people regurgitating third party, out of context, translated, partial quotes from people - but only those that disprove all those nonsense research papers that people spend months or years on. Lets not quote those who agree, right?
@elias_baa@MaduTgn@GeromanAT And your best argument? Not to challenge the paper, it's methodology, it's neutrality, it's findings - but to challenge that I didn't quote a third hand quote of what some other people have said out of context which doesn't even necessarily contradict the paper.
@elias_baa@MaduTgn@GeromanAT You have absolutely no idea how much I based my opinion on, or what assumptions it was based on, and you have yet to present me with even a single counter argument. Don't confuse me showing evidence which correlates with my opinion as anything other than what it is.
@elias_baa@MaduTgn@GeromanAT And such an opinion either documents its methodology, limitations, and references, or it doesn't. Hence science & research is also done by means of research papers and not 'a guy had an opinion'. You know nothing about science...
@elias_baa@MaduTgn@GeromanAT And such an opinion either offers an alternative numerical viewpoint on the reduction in GDP, or it doesn't. So it's useful, or it's not, when we're trying to establish what loss in GDP experts believe Germany would face...
@elias_baa@MaduTgn@GeromanAT Nowhere did I describe the findings as necessarily factually correct. I described the existence of the studies and their conclusions as factually what they are. Any 'official experts' would need to have their views taken in context and in the absence of that it's ridiculous.
@elias_baa@MaduTgn@GeromanAT See, this is why bringing up a loose interpretation of comments made by a person (ie the article I didn't use as a source) has a dilutionary effect. Proving my approach nicely. I deal with science & research. Link me to his actual op-ed and we'll look at the context, if you must.
