I despise modern philosophy because it's useless. Most "thinkers" nowadays just verbatim quote what more intelligent people said centuries ago.
Like people doing analysis of Deleuze's analysis of Foucault's analysis of Nietzsche's books. There haven't been an original philosopher since at least the XIX century

>Why do scientists despite philosophers?
Because they speak like they have authority over shit they don't understand, or understan superficially. They might, for example, grasp a little of quantum physics, but don't know the details; the maths and the models that come with it, thus making stupid conclusions. It doesn't help that most people in the humanities are sophists who train their formative years to convince others of their own juvenile worldview, foolishly believing that in that way they might some day extend their will over every man on earth.
>Why do philosophers despise scientists?
A lot of scientists haven't been exposed to philosophy. Whether it be because of over specialization or just desinterests, the result is the same: they fall prey to common sense. They use reasoning in order to "solve" moral, philosophical and social dilema, and this solutions seem sound at first. Little do they know that the history of human thinking is long and for instance this kind of ideas they propose have shown themselves to open a new can of worms if brought to their logical conclusion. It doesn't help that a lot of them are autists who are only interested in competing and show no regard to preserve or appreciate the beautiful things in life.

I'd say it's because both underestimate how difficult the other's subject is. It's pure intellectual hubris and Dunning Kruger by both philosophers and scientists.

I think part of the problem is increased specialization. People spend years researching a specific part of a specific sub-field but retain an intellectual curiousity about other things that they don't have the time to study in detail. Either they cope by pretending that their field is the only thing that matters or they make honest but amateurish attempts to connect everything together.

It's unironically the other way around. These days scientists can only repeat dogma with no understanding or ability to progress.

>>17685568
The decent ones engage with philosophy to better their disciplines. The rest are confused dogmatists and questioning what is said at face value with no understanding threatens their status and certain industries.

Because philosophers don't understand/are scared of making measurements that debunk their entire sophistry.
I'm serious. A single well done measurement can end millennia of mental masturbation. Most people still can't cope with this fact nowadays, but I'm quite sure mankind will outpace this nonsense in due time.
For the most part one of the copes I see is the "s-science only exists because of philosophy", when mankind has been doing things we can call science way before any formal philosophy ever existed, so it's just a dumb semantics game. We always rely on measurements to understand reality, there is absolutely no exception to this, and any barrage of insults I receive in response to this post doesn't change this fact.
Even if you were absolutely hellbent on proving your conception of philosophy was fundamental for the birth of science, it still fundamentally got outpaced by our current scientific understanding of natural phenomena. Most philosophers just haven't studied modern science. Most philosophers haven't stepped inside a modern laboratory. Most philosophers don't understand that what seems to them like hand-wavy scientific mumbo-jumbo is based on the literal most precise measurements ever performed by this species.
The moment you chose anything besides science to guide your understanding of what surrounds you, you have to realize you left any possibility of reproducibility. Here in this board we have people arguing their understanding of works written 100, 500 or sometimes 2000 years ago in languages they don't speak, and claiming that they share common views and understandings with those that wrote them. This kind of nonsense is why science was born. Equating science to some bazzinga reddit fedora posting is a sad coping attempt for people that got filtered on pre-calculus.
Don't bother posting that picture of the physicists with a false quotation of Heisenberg and shit because that's not an argument and even if it was one could just look for other Nobel prize winners like Feynman to shit on philosophy. It's also telling that for all the appreciation scientists might have for the arts and for philosophy and literature they still keep going back to science when they make their most categorical affirmations.
Few people in this website are scientists. Most people on /sci/ have never even attempted to write a paper in their lives or stepped in a lab or ran an experiment. You think most people don't grasp what philosophy is really about? They can't even fathom the current state of the art of most areas of science or what those are talking about either.
Never forget that the philosophers of Galileo's time refused to look through his telescope when he offered the opportunity.

>philosophy was fundamental for the birth of science, it still fundamentally got outpaced by our current scientific understanding of natural phenomena
well, that's what happened. at least in the west. the first scientists were also philosophers - newton called what he did "philosophy of nature". it's just that, ultimately, natural science took what it found useful from empirist & rationalist philosophy and discarded the rest, including all metaphysics and the question what can be known in the first place.

Scientists don't care about philosophers as very little they say is practically useful to science (not to say that it shouldn't be useful, but as it stands now philosophers of science are about as useful to scientists as ornithologists are to birds).

Philosophers despise scientists for the same reason you'd be mad if you were 100% certain you were right about something and yelling about it at someone who clearly didn't give a shit about what you thought, and they still managed to be pretty successful anyway

However, Barbara Powers, the wife of Francis Powers, was often drinking and allegedly having affairs. On June 22, 1961 she was pulled over by the police after driving erratically and was caught driving under the influence.[16]:251 To avoid bad publicity for the wife of the well-known CIA operative, doctors tasked by the CIA to keep Barbara out of the limelight arranged to have her committed to a psychiatric ward in Augusta, Georgia under strict supervision.[16]:251–51 She was eventually released to the care of her mother. But the CIA feared that Francis Powers languishing in Soviet prison might learn of Barbara's plight and as a result reach a state of desperation causing him to reveal to the Soviets whatever secrets he had not already revealed. Thus, Barbara unwittingly may have aided the cause of the approval of the prisoner exchange involving her husband and William Fisher.[16]:253 Angleton and others at the CIA still opposed the exchange but President John F. Kennedy approved it.[16]:257

Powers and his wife Barbara separated in 1962 and divorced in January 1963. Powers stated that the reasons for the divorce included her infidelity and alcoholism, adding that she constantly threw tantrums and overdosed on pills shortly after his return.[24] He started a relationship with Claudia Edwards "Sue" Downey, whom he had met while working briefly at CIA Headquarters. Downey had a child, Dee, from her previous marriage. They were married on October 26, 1963.[25] Their son Francis Gary Powers Jr. was born on June 5, 1965.[2]:287, 292–93, 323 The marriage proved to be a very happy one, and Sue worked hard to preserve her husband's legacy after his death.[26]

A hubristic belief in the omniscience and infallibility of the scientific process. Scientists often pride themselves in their belief that the truth is simple, that you just have to establish this eternal method and all of nature's mysteries will fall to your feet broken and in submission.

They are partly right. Science can accomplish things that philosophy, or no other discipline for that matter, can. What they fail to recognize is that science cannot engage in introspection on its own process or findings without disengaging in scientific conduct. It cannot step outside its assumptions to fully interpret its theories without doing something other than science. And it cannot actually apply the method to the method (the old verification problem).

Scientists typical embrace of this self-satisfied anti-intellectualism stems, like most prejudices, from the ignorance of what it scorns and rejects.

>>17690277
Oh and this is usually a one way thing. Any philosopher worth their salt draws from the sciences rather than scorns them unless they are one of those social constructionist post modernists who aren't real philosophers.
