Description

Join the Hyperthesis team as we wrap up our sixth season for a summer break filled with research and travel. To start, we discuss a publication put out by Pheely based on work done during his Master's degree. He goes into the intricacies of clustering and the idea of no free lunch as he examines trade-offs of clustering and avoiding clustering. As we segue into our main topic, we discuss the details around the scientific method and how it differs from what people are taught. We also delve into the philosophy surrounding creating hypothesis and theories, and how we know where to start doing research. Finally, Liam ends with a story on Unruh and his discovery of analogue gravity.
