I feel like economics and political science’s assumption of rational actors is like if physics never moved past “okay all this assumes you’re in a frictionless vacuum”

A piece in the New York Review of books takes apart Ross Douthat's newish book "Believe: Why Everyone Should be Religious." Main grounds: science's failure to explain some phenomena doesn't prove God. Also, his argument for Christianity being the "right" faith is lame.

You may as well "theory is not a thing." Of course it's a thing- it's an idea.
It is not science. The two are very different concepts. Truth, however, is a concept that applies to both - Not fact- that is science's domain alone, save for provable history. Mythology's value is different, not less.

AKAT 1 analog computer, 1959
![extremly cool Jetsons looking computer console on legs with ball feet and a small deep monitor, the controls look like a recording studio mixing board.
AKAT-1
Developer Jacek Karpiński and Janusz Tomaszewski
Constructed in 1959 by Jacek Karpiński and Janusz Tomaszewski it was the world's first transistorised differential equations analyzer.
Background
Karpiński built the device at the Polish Academy of Science's Institute of Automatics. AKAT-1 aimed to simulate various complex dynamic processes like thermodynamics, heat transfer or a shock absorber's mechanics.
The device's innovativeness was acknowledged by computer science historians, e.g. Maciej Sysło claims it has to be conceded that Karpiński's effort preceded any other similar device.[3] The construction was also lauded for its aesthetical merits. The panel designed by leading Polish artists Emil Cieślar, Olgierd Rutkowski, Stanisław Siemek and Andrzej Wróblewski at the Warsaw Academy of Fine Arts had been considered to 'innovatively merge all functions in a congruent and attractive form that anticipated the future trends'. The machine has been domestically welcomed warmly, having been covered by a host of country-wide media, including national television TVP1 and Polish Film Chronicle.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:64mdicpo7sq4k5bx2z3m2jo6/bafkreicbhvhofgx3yhj7lixyg7lrxlkijaxjpixwtt3cjk3k5aiddksruy@jpeg)
