  • Who dislikes this??

  • Check out my vids and i'll donate 5p to cancer research every time someone clicks on the ads :)

  • HIDDEN CURE.Cancer is a deficiency disease caused by a lack of nitrilosides in the modern western diet just like scurvy is a deficiency of vitamin C. Big Pharma/FDA profiteers have covered up the cure and have declared it fraud and quackery for over 60 years.Watch WORLD WITHOUT CANCER YouTube documentary and investigate these facts.Thousands have been cured just by adding this essential compond to their diet without the self destructive and devastating drugs, chemo and radiation.Choose life.

  • You know what I think about all this?

    watch?v=0o-Di0cBSMk&feature=re­lmfu

  • Homosexual activists understand the power of words.

    Please visit my channel to watch a one-minute video clip in which popular atheist author Richard Dawkins admits that homosexual activists "hijacked the word 'gay'".

    The word "homosexual" is more appropriate and accurate because it, unlike the word "gay", actually describes the behavior/attraction/relationsh­ip being discussed.

    The word "gay" helps homosexual activists push their agenda.

    

  • Google Run from the cure

  • Chemo therapy is like a transistor radio..........Outdated.

  • Love it!

  • absolutely inspirational

  • Chemist: Sir, I found the cure for cancer.

    Boss: Oh I'm sorry.

    Chemist: Uhh, I said I found the cure for cancer...

    Boss: Yes I know, and we will out of job because of that.

    Chemist: I think I haven't found the cure for cancer.

    Boss: Wheew, that's good.

  • Haha light and beautiful. Social agendas?! OooOOo they might pay taxes, havkids, visit each other in the hospital, get married and divorced, go out for steak, retire and get a yauht

  • cannabis

    

  • My brother is 39 and has a "very agressive cancer!" as all the doctors and "brilliant minds" said. My family and himself went to a doctor who is still labaled as a "quack" and guess what? He's getting better and better without radiation/chemo. There is a cure for cancer but the problem is not a cure. The problem is profit. They will keep searching for a miracle and the miracle is already here. check out: Dr. Simoncini, Sodium Carbonate, B17, (perhaps along with chemotherapy) etc... cancer=fungus

  • Problem, capitalism?

  • @raiki15 the real mankind cancer is capitalism

  • Wait... Laboratories are not sharing information and findings with each other already? No wonder cancer has not been completely cured....

  • @datworkers No, they can't share. Since developing drugs is so expensive (thanks to over regulation), they have to get backing money to do the research. Thus, the research doesn't belong to them - it belongs to the shareholders. this means they are not allowed to publish the partial result of their research, and are not allowed to give others permission to do followup on their work. Legally not allowed, mind you - they could go to prison for it.

    Yes, this inhibits research. Capitalism...

  • @waycoolzing I do not deny the fact that it may be a potent drug in the future, but until it is properly tested, you cannot administrate it to patients. It has to take the same pathway that any other drug takes before being release in the market. You don't make experiments like Hitler did.

  • @siegfried182005 Hitler did experiments on people AGAINST THEIR WILL. The comparison is just wrong. Why not allow people who WANT to participate in drug trial, people who will die soon anyway, take or try whatever they want?

    To remind you, the rabis vaccine, penicillin, and virtually all the old medication were tested this way. Tested on people who were sick, were gonna die, and decided to try a new drug that might kill them, but might save them too. Comparing that to Hitler... really.

  • @guyben13 That is what those companies in the countries mentioned above are using today: they know that anyone with money and very ill will do anything to live, and they offer an untested alternative to them, of course, not after cashing the check. There is no guaranties that the treatment is effective, and also on this pathway you open the road for those with all kinds of homeopathic drugs to make money literally from simple water.

  • @guyben13 Yes, they were tested this way, but now we are in the 21 st century, and we have strict regulations of what drugs come out on the market. We can't risk another thalidomide accident. This things just have to be taken slowly. It is clearly an ethical problem too: put out there an add about a "new cure" and you will surely have a queue on your door. I, as a future doctor, want to give my patients some kind of assurance that the drugs that i give them have positive results.

  • @siegfried182005 As a doctor: lets say you have a sick patient, going do die in a couple of months. There is no cure for him. However, there is a new drug that seems to do well on mice. Should he be allowed to try it, and maybe die, or should he just die?

    I agree that you shouldn't open the door too wide: For one, You shouldn't allow payment for untested drugs. And maybe only for the terminally ill. But the system as it is now is broken. It actively inhibits life saving drug development.

  • @guyben13 It is illegal what you say there; i would go directly to jail for that. It is not possible to administrate a drug tested only on mice to humans without any other data of the possible adverse effects, the pharmacocinetic and the pharmacodynamics of the substance in humans and many others. There are some phases trough which a drug has to pass before it gets the green light:).

  • @siegfried182005 I KNOW it's illegal. I'm saying that it's WRONG for it to be illegal. The fact that it's illegal costs lives, AND inhibits drug development, AND pushes up the price of those drugs that do get developed.

    It should be legal. That way university researchers could help develop life saving drugs, instead of limiting research to HUGE conglomerates. That way you could test natural compounds (such as penicillin and dog saliva (used for rabis)) even tough they aren't patentable.

  • @guyben13 Many drugs used in chemotherapy for example can have serious sides effects, like aplastic anemia, of agranulocytosis or even some types of cancers. You do not play with something like this, that is why you need it to be properly tested in the proper manner and in an controlled environment. Plus, the patient can die from the treatment, if you don't manage his condition respecting the protocols in use for the specific treatments.

  • @guyben13 I know that pharmaceutical companies are selfish, but in a capitalist world, you can't have it other way for now. Anyway, what it is presented in this video is a good start for a change. But remember: you need a lot of hundreds of millions of $ to develope tens of thousands of drug types a year. For now, we need those corporations to create drugs. Let this idea presented here to evolve, and we will see what comes of it. It may work, in may not work, time will tell.

  • @waycoolzing There are no clinical trials yet to verify the potential improvement of the survival rates in cancer patients by using dichloroacetic acid. Even if you have some results in vitro, and even in vivo on mice or human cells, that doesn't mean that it will work the same in the body of a human. You say that is verry effective. Prove that! Where are the studies with the subjects that had their life extended with the help of this chemical compound.

  • Ahhh Harvard, always keeping the best scientists within your range! :)

  • @waycoolzing I think you are wrong...

    In Russia and Cuba and China they use some methods that are not backed up by clinical trial informations. They simply profit from the desperation of ill people with money. And to say that doctors prescribe poisons...you sure are ignorant about this matter. Those substances kill cells with high division rates, like cancer cells. They are indispensable in this field for now.

  • @waycoolzing you have to be carefull though, b17 is a big fucking scam. it has never been proven in a study and i have seen families wasting tons of money on that crap and have there relatives die anyway.

  • the results of proper science and proper cooperation of people leads to amazing advancements

    while making products just to sell them results in waste and stagnation

    why is it so hard for people to be humane towards each other

  • Very interesting!

  • hemp oil ?

  • Read "The China Study" by T. Colin Campbell Ph.D and watch "Cancer is curable now and your immune system" from maxAwareness channel.

  • (Open mouth) Just wow!

  • Beautiful, from start to finish.

  • @TITOR002 without the F... I'd say you're a "Trekkie" - How did it begin? What happened? And Why did it happen? Maybe you could give a TED lecture and open our eyes. I would love to live in the Federation too. Just tell me when!

  • I hate that everything first of all needs to be "for profit". Let's fucking ditch the monetary system and start working together to achieve greatness, instead of working separately for some paper notes with ink on them.

  • @TITOR002

    The problem is that human nature makes it very difficult for people to give up time and resources without trhe expectation of compensation in return. The problem is not money, money is simply a symbol for work...and people do not work unless they get a reward.

  • @kshackleton Of course everyone wants some kind of reward, it's in the nature of us humans. But that the reward always has to be money is stupid. Many people work for better rewards than that. Volunteers etc. The reward can be seeing other people happy, building a school for a poor village, finding a cure to cancer to save people. I often work hard to help my friends with their grades, my reward is a happy friend and a sense of achievement. Money is unnecessary as an incentive for hard work.

  • @kshackleton When the reward is money, and the goal is money, we start to get into the real sickness of greed. You do things for money, not for the goodness that can come out of your product etc.

    We empty the worlds resources and cripple our nature with our extreme consumerism and other things.

    Why are there so many people dying from starvation, when the land on our earth could easily cover up for our needs? Answer is that there is no gain in feeding starving children, or making people smile..

  • @TITOR002

    Money is not the problem. It is simply an effective and convenient medium of exchange. The problem is human nature and the behaviour that flows from that.

  • @kshackleton There is no such thing as human nature. If there was we could not evolve ideas collectively. We would be stuck in the stone age. It's not human nature, but human behavior. Human behavior is a conditioned attribute based on the environment. The environment has almost always remained relatively similar -- that of resource scarcity. Because of that some people learn to horde resources for their own and familial survival. We need to change environment to change behavior.

  • @Youanden

    No such thing as human nature? The evidence refutes your claim rather dramatically.

  • @kshackleton Linux, in all different flavors. Gimp - the free "photoshop", blender - the free 3d renderer, not to talk about all the desktop environments, all the small free opensource programs

    Even big companies like HP add to opensource, because it saves them moeny.

    All this done for free, even without anyone being acknowledged for their work.

    Why would they? Because knowledge costs nothing to copy. If you already did it for yourself, passing it along is free. Your model doesn't work here.

  • @guyben13

    I did not describe a model. I simply described money for what it is...a medium of exchange. Money is not the problem.

  • @kshackleton I meant your model for people. You say that "human nature makes it very difficult for people to give up time and resources without the expectation of compensation", while in reality there are a LOT of contradicting examples. The whole open-source scene, where virtually no one even gets real credit for their work, contradicts this model.

    I'm saying that this present idea about human nature is wrong. Maybe it's an artifact of "capitalism", rather than the cause.

  • @guyben13

    No, the model is sound. Perhaps the open-source people are working under the notion that their long-term benefits will outweight the short term cost. As a rule, even with many apparent exceptions, people in all cultures and economic models look to benefit in some form from their efforts. I suspect that evolution has had some influence in that regard...it's not cultural.

  • @kshackleton Sorry, nope :) "Capitalism" tries to hide that people will just do things "because it's nice". Because they can, and someone else needs it. Just like that. It is cultural making these people feel like "they are suckers".

    It's easy to day "as a rule" and disregard "exceptions", or invent motives. Look at libravox - people making public domain audiobooks, for nothing. The linux forums, helping people with IT issues for nothing. People like helping, and will invest effort in it.

  • @guyben13

    If I may make a suggestion...read a few books on evolutionary psychology. I recommend the Blank Slate by Steven Pinker. Quite a bit of what motivates us can be traced back to how our genes, shaped by our evolutionary history....wires our brains.

  • @guyben13 It's true. Internally created rewards are far more motivating than external rewards.

  • ClC1=CC=C(C2=N[C@@H](CC(OC(C)(­C)C)=O)C3=NN=C(C)N3C4=C2C(C)=C­(C)S4)C=C1  (Open Source Cancer)

  • Good news for humanity. Hope this becomes an increasing trend.

  • If only the entire world worked like this... but the sad truth is that it will never happen..

  • Don't forget to check out Dr.Tullio Simoncini cancer cures!!!

  • Informative, innovative, motivating, eye-opening and deep-felt - this is how TEDtalks are supposed to be!

  • Open Source Forever..Open-source your life and the world. Patenting life should by definition NOT be allowed just like. people are dying every single day because of pure greed and the argument about the drug companies have to support their research with patents or else the will never invent anything again is bullshit. Look at Android and tell me that companies like Samsung or Google is not making money doing open source!

  • If I was a millionaire I'd Fund these guys.

    It's all about globally sharing Info regarding Cancer and all diseases

  • Treatment of cancer is global emergency. Holding information in a particular pharmaceutical company impedes development of new drugs. Eventually, just as many open source softwares have overtaken the software industry and produced even better programs for use, this will happen in pharmaceutical industry.

    Any information related to human medicine should be free. All pharmaceuticals should be compulsed to release all drug information. It's the only way we can achieve cancer treatments earlier.

  • this is awesome 

  • Lets get going boys - end cancer

  • wow this is TEDx... good work... :)

  • so interesting! although i am only in high school, i wanna research soooo BAD!

  • move your mic noob! its rubbing your cheek!

  • super sexy logo they got there :D

  • It's nice to see an actual scientist instead of a profiteer with a fancy degree.

  • ''Not a business a model, it involves all of you, this research is funded by the public''

  • Now correct me if I am wrong, but what happens when a large pharmaceutical company takes his research and develops it further into a different string that could potentially be more successful then the first and then abruptly patents it so no other company can work with that, wouldn't that disable the "open-source" ideas of this video? To be honest I am quite confused about it.

  • @MrPahjay11 A project in development cannot be patented, only result can be patented. Which means that the pharmaceutical company must actually make the drug work before they can patent it.

  • @ilion12345 So say as a community, we find a way to create a end all cure to cancer. Technically we are in a race to find the cure and hopefully the cure doesn't fall into the wrong hands? I'm purely talking theoretical here. I'm just trying to get a broader conception of the field I am planning on entering out of college.

  • @MrPahjay11 Patenting is good if you know how to use it to protect the rights of researchers. A patent does not prevent others from doing further research on the patented drug, it only prevents others, who are not the inventors from making profit. Patents are published by the patent offices 18 months after publication, so the information is out there to be used by anybody interested in further improving drugs.

  • Oooh I'm a tumor I'm a tumor, I'm a tumor. I'm a tumor, oooh I'm a tumor.

    So cancer cells actually have a molecular way of "saying" that? Wowee.

  • To reverse any "cancer" in the body watch RobertMorseND on YouTube. It is simple to regenerate damaged cells, eat raw fruits & vegetables. Eat living bioelectric flood for optimum health. Dont eat cooked/processed foods. Big Pharma perpetuates cancer myth and all ills to sell pills. Go RAW!!!

  • @marjorielard

    To reverse serious delusions, do some actual research.

  • @marjorielard

    Yep that's right. All you have to do is eat raw food. All those scientists and pharmaceutical companies are EVIL and these authors of the books called things like "How I cured my cancer in 10 days" are both factual and in it for GOOD.

    Or... perhaps they are the examples of extreme cases of spontaneous remission, whilst the rest of the population die horribly and only people with DECADES of research knowledge can help rid the world of cancer.

  • NOTHING wrong with capitalism AT ALL. Let's all compete with eachother and withold findings until we can profit from them. Sick of this shit. This video was a breath of fresh air in an otherwise suffocated world.

  • The human spirit is truly unbeatable.

    Congratulations sir, well done.

  • Sound really promising. It seems that cancer research has been making some good progress during the last couple of years. Cure is still a far from reality, but talks like this make me hopeful that the future without cancer is already with us today. Thanks to researchers like Mr. Bradner we can look at open-source as model not just for computer science, but for industries as well.

  • Comment removed

  • the real breakthrough will be when this model is shown to be enormously profitable, as it has been in other fields

  • 0:15

  • @sladkajes They fixed the intro volume, we can stop doing that on every video :P

  • @Nyphur I myself can't stand the sound of it... and thus I neeeeeed doing that on every video! DFTBA!

  • We need to stop investing in useless shit like religion and start investing it into science. If all countries did this and made it opensource, the advantages would be incredible.

  • If are not aware that cancer stems from processed food, we are really behind..

  • I don't know what open-source cancer is, but if it is free I will take one

  • please addd some vids on how biotech research is actually done.

  • Imagine if Pharma companies start sharing such information at least about the incurable diseases, this world can be a lot of happier place to be!

  • This is the future.

  • yes fuck propriety!

  • Open source... we people NEED information.

    We dont pay for Windows or pills... :)

  • @calucalu123

    How come you don't pay for pills?

  • @AmerginMacEccit just saying ... we should not pay for an OS neither for pills to keep our health. Its where the systems have taken us to.

  • First half was good, after which it became a sales pitch. And btw there are millions of compounds that yield the same results his did.

  • @D0KTOR7 what do you mean?

  • @AmethystEyes If you go through the biochemical literature, you will see tons and tons of published material that say the exact things that he does, namely, a promising cancer therapy. But there is no way to reconcile the vast amount of data in the academic sphere with real world pragmatism. Quite simply, institutionalized research is not nearly institutionalized as much as it should be.

  • @D0KTOR7

    There's also the findings of Dr. Burzynski, who has his own clinic that is not funded by FDA or any other pharma companies. Instead, he is under constant attacks from established pharmaceutical and governm. agencies. Curing people will actually put an end to making money - something many companies cannot afford to happen. But it won't go on forever as the systemic collapse is upon all of us.

  • Wow!! Thank you for sharing your knowledge to other academics to further the research. You could be a billionaire overnight for having researched that potential cancer cure. You took the road less traveled by and that would definitely make a difference. You deserve a Nobel prize!

  • see focus on community and peservation should be our focus,with his change he could be saving millions but hes waiting on funding. yet we spend trillions on war to kill each other.

    this is why i occupymelbourne, this is why i want a change.

  • Absolutely brilliant!

  • My only question is why wasn't this standard practice already?

  • @N3rdyDav3 Because research organizations and pharmaceutical companies like money, and giving your idea to others means they will get the money not you. Money both drives and retards the discovery of cures and treatment.

  • I hope this gets to the public soon!

  • I wish we had more labs, companies like this who are willing to take a hit to their bottom line for the betterment of humanity.

  • cannabis oil and daily juiced, fresh cannabis cure cancer. educate yourself , don't listen to the propaganda.

  • doing things for the love of it is much more powerful than doing it for money.

  • This man is a hero!

  • Open source cancer? Oh no!

  • I don't understand... why no standing ovation for this man?

  • It's obvious that Bradner has a personal connection to his job. This is what scientists are supposed to be like. He and his work is a perfect representation of the power of passion.

  • Comment removed

  • You want to know about cancer, watch "forks over knives"

  • Can I get some of this molecule to be injected into me?

  • Why can America do amazing things like this quietly but loudly do the things I see on the Daily Show?

  • Open source is big pharma going after naive researcher's ideas. I'm a researcher and I patent my inventions to raise funds to continue my projects. If I shared my knowledge for free, I wouldn't have the resources to finance my research, I wouln't even have a salary. Open source is a bad idea that only wealthy institutions or companies can afford.

  • @1marcelo Yip, a great world we live in with stupidly expensive drugs and insurance bringing medical care and the end user to their knees due to pure greed. Big pharma will take this molecule, alter it slightly and patent it then sell it at 1000%+ profit and then when patent comes to an end repeat the process.

  • @1marcelo Open source is not a bad idea. It's useful and effective. Just because it might be difficult to base an entire business model around it doesn't mean it's pointless.

    Basically, all research could be made open source and everyone would benefit. We'd have to worry about parasite companies not doing their own research, but they would still have to be competent enough to produce the drugs and therapies cost effectively.

    Benefit: faster, wider development of drugs and therapies.

  • @LithiumLogica It doesn't work like you think. Research is extremely expensive. I discovered a drug for a rare disease years ago and published the results without patenting. The project stopped because it was impossible to raise the millions of dollars needed for clinical trials. With other drugs I patented I was able to raise the money, the development continues and the profit will be shared by the researchers, academic institutions and big pharma (they thake a big share but at least it works)

  • @1marcelo That doesn't mean research cannot be done unless it's kept a total secret. The video above shows that it's perfectly viable to open source the research to allow collaboration. Your personal experience doesn't mean that all situations are like that or will be like that. Also, you have to realize that you were still working within the industry where it is common practice to keep information on lock-down, to guarantee profits. He's talking about breaking that mold.

  • @LithiumLogica No, I was working at an academic institution and I still do. I have also worked in the industry so I know both sides and I assure you Jay Bradner's story is amazing but it is the exception.

  • By the way, I just found out this drug had already been patented for use in cancer by Mitsubishi Pharma (great researchers, I've worked with them) many years ago, so the Dana-Farber team wouldn't have been able to patent this even if they wanted to.

  • @1marcelo And to be clear, it might not work to be open source within a conventional business model, but something can be built to produce a byproduct of open source information. Effectively, that's what he was discussing today. He isn't part of a big company, he's part of an academic institution and they produce the information as open source, which drives them to work harder, and allows many more companies and people to do more research that might turn out a viable product.

  • @1marcelo I am fairly certain that I could never walk a mile in your shoes, but as a consumer of medicine and not a researcher, the idea of a global scientific collaboration of ideas for the good of mankind warms my heart. If this experiment of sharing the source code of a molecule ends up generating profit and good health would you reconsider your stance?

  • @spinynorman1982 Thanks for your comment. Actually, in research, results are always published, even the ones produced by big pharma. Only the timing and the revenues are different. Companies patent their inventions (it is too risky to keep them secret for long) and after 18 months they are automatically published by the patent offices. These data are available for everybody to make further improvements and more research. Open source will only deprive researchers from a fair compensantion.

  • @1marcelo So, if I understand, any company that produces medicine based on independent R&D will give due credit and revenue to the researcher or team that brought about the discovery. Then to be made public after patents are filed. However, this person (speaker at TED) is trying to circumvent that process and encourage all researchers to immediately publish data so that it can be co-developed by rival companies which could potentially cause research grants to be lost on future developments?

  • @spinynorman1982 You understood correctly. I don't know why Bradner favors open-source research. Maybe he does not understand the patenting process, which is common among researchers, unfortunately. Many people are biased against patenting without having any knowledge about it. I also have to say that Bradner did not patent this drug and its use in cancer because this was discovered some years ago by a Japanese company. What Bradner discovered was only the mechanism, which is not patentable.

  • @1marcelo That's to the point, though. We need the mechanisms, but those aren't patentable so the work isn't public. It's throwing out a substantial amount of knowledge.

  • @LokiClock Knowledge about mechanisms doesn't cure people, drugs do. That's why the drugs are patentable and the mechanisms are not. I agree that researchers can use this knowledge for further developments and that is very useful. But publishing mechanisms and sharing the information is very common in science and nothing new. If you want to make career as a scientist you need to publish or to patent and then publish and that happens all the time. That's why the point of the talk is not clear.

  • @1marcelo If I could digress for a minute. You mentioned a phrase that I hear often. "Big pharma". Without knowing exactly what that is I can deduce that it means companies that perhaps own several patents on the most popular drugs. Why do Homeopath BS artists use this phrase to criticize science based medicine? Is there a lot of corruption within these companies? IF there is corruption I don't see how it would effect a chemical structure of a useful drug.

  • @spinynorman1982 In general it means companies that withhold cures and treatment to make them more profitable. It's bollocks.

  • "lab animals"

  • How many cancer cures are going to come out before they start curing cancer? There is a man in Canada who can cure cancer in LAN animals with a simple supplement.

  • Bloody brilliant.

    It's amazing to see the leaps and bounds people are making in the effort to get on the top-side of cancer. It's equally amazing to see the researchers treating a cure as a human endeavor, rather than a business venture.

  • open source is anti-capitalism. there is no drive for profits, only for results. there is a common belief that capitalism rewards and encourages innovation, yet this is a prime example of how capitalism impedes innovation. it isn't until you remove the ability to profit that you can really allow inspired people to innovate. cancer will encourage people to find ways to stop it. as long as there is a problem, someone will try to fix it, no profits needed. 

  • DMT its a drug that activate your pineal glande and people say that transport you to another dimension, and people say that find salvation from their own mistakes and cure themselves so my point is if you are going to die better try everything.

    DMT ENJOY LIFE open sourse rocks

  • Wow. If this could be done it would be profound!

  • Open source is the future

  • @mistergreenhat open source is the future we all wish for but will only become a reality once we as the people of this world, take charge of our destiny and free ourselves from the strangle hold placed on us by the multinational corporations, and especially banks, that control all aspects of our governments, the economy and ultimately our lives.

    i look forward to the day when we realise sharing is much more satisfying than hording great wealth that we will never use.

  • Dr. Bursinsky

  • AMAZING!

  • Open source biochemistry.

  • i like this guy *thumbs up* brother

  • We need more people like this guy.

  • i think if we really want to reach Technological singularity we have to do it open source. capitalism is to inefficient XD

    support open source ecology!

    support the zeitgeist movenment!

  • open source cancer research doesn't pay the share holders of the drug companies but I applaud him doing so

  • We don't have a legal team that will hide the drug until it becomes profitable to release it. I left the world of cancer research because of pharmaceutical companies, now I wonder if I should return.

    Also, mic ras is vastly different from P53. >.>

  • This is much better then the political videos they have been posting

  • He raises an interesting point about patients, medical industries and competition. LET SCIENCE BUILD ON SCIENCE.

  • This talk is by far a favorite of mine out of all the ones I've watch, I can't wait to see more like this,

  • Great example on collaboration provides tremendously better results than competition. This paradigm shift will hopefully change the world for the better in the future, when we will be able to see through our outdated society.

  • @Uribaani Well the scientific method requires competition.... but not the corp kind ;)

  • @Alpinex105 why do you type "the scientific method requires competition" ? ...science is based on accurate observation of fact/evidence ...simply curious

  • @gaiagale Exactly... the competition comes with explaining these facts... Academic debates happen all the time....they are reviewed extensively... competition is what allowed us to dismiss old irrelevant theories. Theories are modified as well... there is a huge amount of debate there.. both A and B could work... now which one works better?
