260626 What I learned in my studies this morning 6**

Today's Meditation(s):

From Reddit:

Absence of evidence is not evidence of absence" is a great rule of thumb for preventing hasty conclusions, but it is incomplete. In epistemology and Bayesian logic, if you look for something where it absolutely should be and find nothing, that failure to find it is positive evidence that it doesn't exist.

The Elephant in the Room: If someone claims there is a full-grown African elephant in your living room, you would expect to see it, hear it, and see structural damage to your floorboards. If you look around and see none of these things, the absence of evidence is overwhelming evidence of absence.

What you find instead, is liars and con men who insist the elephant is invisible when you can't see it, weightless when you put down a scale, heatless when you measure temperature, out side of time when you look for actions, and outside of reality when it effects nothing... but if you have 'faith' in their claims, you get a reward that's also invisible, weightless, timeless...

An important reminder.
