A credulousness, a distaste for documentation, an uncritical reliance on contemporary accounts, and a proneness to assume a theory as true before adequate proof was provided were all evidences of his failure to comprehend the use of the scientific method or to evaluate the responsibilities of the historian to his reading public.

It was this basic trait that separated Adams from the ranks of professional historians and led him to commit time and time again what was his most serious offense against the historical method -- namely, the tendency to assume the truth of an hypothesis before submitting it to the test of facts.

What was perhaps more important than his concept of the nature of history and the historical method were those forces which shaped the direction of his thought.

The method is useful in specialized organic synthetic operations but is considered too expensive for large scale applications.

However, it is not clear what should be considered to be valence electrons for the d-and f-block elements, which leads to an ambiguity for their electronegativities calculated by the Allen method.

Features in the disks may suggest the presence of planets, though this is not considered a definitive detection method.

To that extent the solid propellant is considered to have reached the end of its tether, although it will remain the principal propulsion method for at least the next decade until newer technologies mature to a level where they can be successfully implemented.

However, TCPI is no longer considered a viable method of propellant ignition because it may damage the fins and does not deliver energy as efficiently as a FLARE igniter.

Falsifiability is considered a positive ( and often essential ) quality of a hypothesis because it means that the hypothesis is testable by empirical experiment and thus conforms to the standards of scientific method.

Initially, countries which were traditionally considered capitalistic received high ratings, but the method improved over time.

The precise level of glucose considered low enough to define hypoglycemia is dependent on ( 1 ) the measurement method, ( 2 ) the age of the person, ( 3 ) presence or absence of effects, and ( 4 ) the purpose of the definition.

Gutenberg's method for making type is traditionally considered to have included a type metal alloy and a hand mould for casting type.

The putative branches of Khoisan are often considered independent families, in the absence of a demonstration that they are related according to the standard comparative method.

In order for a compression algorithm to be considered lossless, there needs to exist a reverse mapping from compressed bit sequences to original bit sequences ; that is to say, the compression method would need to encapsulate a bijection between " plain " and " compressed " bit sequences.

While Chomsky's search for Universal Grammar could be considered an essentially platonic endeavor ( i. e. concerned with idealized forms ), Halliday's orientation to the study of natural language has been compared to Darwin's method.

The Calendar-Rhythm method is also considered a calendar-based method though it is not well defined and has many different meanings to different people.

This is frequently the method used to win games at higher levels, since a double threat is about as dangerous as a tessera ( which could be considered a form of double threat ).

As a result, a number of claims are considered " pseudoscience " if they are found to improperly apply or ignore the fundamental aspects of the scientific method.

Ibn al-Haytham ( Alhazen ), a pioneer of the scientific method who is considered to be the " Father of Modern Optics " and arguably one of the first scientists.

If you got too many people investing by this method, their operations would begin to affect stock prices, and thus throw the charts off.

Even among the fast set in which she was moving, her method for keeping an escort from departing too early was unique.

An attempt to increase majority elements by tweaking the system parameters ( more smaller districts, d ' Hondt method used ) by ČSSD and ODS during their " opposition agreement " 1998 – 2002 was vehemently opposed by smaller parties and blocked by the Constitutional Court as going too much against the constitution-stated proportional principle ; only a moderated form was adopted.

They are very important in computational chemistry for treating large molecules where the full Hartree – Fock method without the approximations is too expensive.

As a brute-force method, ray tracing has been too slow to consider for real-time, and until recently too slow even to consider for short films of any degree of quality, although it has been used for special effects sequences, and in advertising, where a short portion of high quality ( perhaps even photorealistic ) footage is required.

The conversational method becomes necessary when the developer knows he cannot ask the user for all the necessary data at the start, the problem being too complex.

In practice, this method is only feasible for small numbers ; computing prime factorizations in general takes far too long.

Shortly after Ebbinghaus left Berlin in 1893, Dilthey published a paper extolling the virtues of descriptive psychology, and condemning experimental psychology as boring, claiming that the mind was too complex, and that introspection was the desired method of studying the mind.

When they are both large, for instance more than 2000 bits long, randomly chosen, and about the same size ( but not too close, e. g. to avoid efficient factorization by Fermat's factorization method ), even the fastest prime factorization algorithms on the fastest computers can take enough time to make the search impractical ; that is, as the number of digits of the primes being factored increases, the number of operations required to perform the factorization on any computer increases drastically.

This enabled the eskimo roll to become the preferred method of regaining posture after capsizing, especially as few Eskimos could swim ; their waters are too cold for a swimmer to survive for long.

In general, phenetics is today recognized to provide too much unreliable information about the evolutionary relationships among taxa to remain a mainstay method.

To calculate using large numbers ( e. g., billions ), the formulae would become too long, and some short-cut method would have to be used, which would no doubt rely on everyday techniques such as counting ( or else on non-fundamental and hence questionable methods such as induction ).

Peine forte et dure ( Law French for " hard and forceful punishment ") was a method of torture formerly used in the common law legal system, in which a defendant who refused to plead (" stood mute ") would be subjected to having heavier and heavier stones placed upon his or her chest until a plea was entered, or as the weight of the stones on the chest became too great for the condemned to breathe, fatal suffocation would occur.

While this skim-feeding view became widely accepted, it was not subjected to scientific research until 2007 when a study showed that for such large pterosaurs it was not a viable method because the energy costs would be too high due to excessive drag.

The optimal method for keeping average freshness high includes ignoring the pages that change too often, and the optimal for keeping average age low is to use access frequencies that monotonically ( and sub-linearly ) increase with the rate of change of each page.

) on the barbecue far more than seafood, as the cooking method can be too dry and harsh for the delicate flesh and a little too complex to do well for the average home.

Some scholars argue that The World Bank method sets the bar too high, others argue it is low.

The Wubi method is based on the structure of characters rather than their pronunciation, making it possible to input characters even when you do not know the pronunciation, as well as not being too closely linked to any particular Chinese dialect.
