In contrast to Positivism, which held that statements are meaningless if they cannot be verified or falsified, Popper claimed that falsifiability is merely a special case of the more general notion of criticizability, even though he admitted that empirical refutation is one of the most effective methods by which theories can be criticized.

So by reducing the number of tracks used and thus capacity, it was possible to further reduce cost-in contrast to Double Density drives used e. g. in IBM PC computers of the day which saved 180 kB on one side ( by using a 40 tracks format ).

Since they are hydrocarbons, and therefore contain no oxygen, carotenes are fat-soluble and insoluble in water ( in contrast with other carotenoids, the xanthophylls, which contain oxygen and thus are less chemically hydrophobic ).

By reducing the number of tracks used ( and thus the capacity ), Commodore could further reduce cost-in contrast to the double-density drives used e. g. in IBM PCs of the day which saved 180 KB on one side ( by using a 40-track format ).

Karl Popper defined democracy in contrast to dictatorship or tyranny, thus focusing on opportunities for the people to control their leaders and to oust them without the need for a revolution.

In contrast with most other OO languages, other methods applicable to the class are often defined outside of the class, and thus class definitions in Dylan typically include the definition of the storage only.

This is in contrast to dipole parts of the EM field close to the source ( the near-field ), which varies in power according to an inverse cube power law, and thus does not transport a conserved amount of energy over distances, but instead dies away rapidly with distance, with its energy ( as noted ) either rapidly returning to the transmitter, or else absorbed by a nearby receiver ( such as a transformer secondary coil ).

The work thus contains an understandable degree of bias, Einhard taking care to exculpate Charlemagne in some matters, not mention others, and to gloss over certain issues which would be of embarrassment to Charlemagne, such as the morality of his daughters ; by contrast, other issues are curiously not glossed over, like his concubines.

* Staining – uses heavy metals such as lead, uranium or tungsten to scatter imaging electrons and thus give contrast between different structures, since many ( especially biological ) materials are nearly " transparent " to electrons ( weak phase objects ).

There is thus an ironic contrast between Paul's own temporal imprisonment and Philemon's temporal freedom ( and mastery over Onesimus ), balanced by the inversion of that relationship in what Paul sees as his own spiritual authority over Philemon and Philemon's spiritual subservience to Paul, who is claiming that Onesimus – temporally, a slave – is, spiritually speaking, not simply equal to his master but a brother of his.

In contrast with the Reichsgut, which was mostly scattered and difficult to administer, these territories were relatively compact and thus easier to control.

In contrast, amour-propre is artificial and encourages man to compare himself to others, thus creating unwarranted fear and allowing men to take pleasure in the pain or weakness of others.

In contrast to the more strict definition proposed by IUPAC, which requires a d-block metal and a sandwich structure, the term metallocene and thus the denotation-ocene, is applied in the chemical literature also to non-transition metal compounds, such as Cp < sub > 2 </ sub > Ba, or structures where the aromatic rings are not co-planar, such as found in manganocene or titanocene dichloride ( Cp < sub > 2 </ sub > TiCl < sub > 2 </ sub >).

In contrast, those who justified US interventions in the Cold War period always cast these as being motivated by the need to contain totalitarianism and thus fulfilled a higher moral imperative.

In contrast to Orion, it is in the period November – January ( summer in the Southern Hemisphere, winter in the Northern Hemisphere ) when Ophiuchus is in the daytime sky and thus not visible at most latitudes.

Broken pottery, abundant and virtually free, served as a kind of scrap paper ( in contrast to papyrus, which was imported from Egypt as a high-quality writing surface, and was thus too costly to be disposable ).

In contrast to the figures discussed in this section thus far, David Hume lived a relatively quiet life that had settled down to a relatively stable social and political structure.

Potentially, each Whiteheadean occasion of experience is causally consequential on every other occasion of experience that precedes it in time, and has as its causal consequences every other occasion of experience that follows it in time ; thus it has been said that Whitehead's occasions of experience are'all window ', in contrast to Leibniz's ' windowless ' monads.

An " S ", by contrast, is assumed to be guided more by the judgment / perception axis, and thus divided into the " SJ " ( guardian, traditionalist ) or " SP " ( performer, artisan ) temperament.

This was possible because of a greatly increased vocal range in music – in the Middle Ages, the narrow range made necessary frequent crossing of parts, thus requiring a greater contrast between them.

In contrast visible light and longer-wavelength electromagnetic radiation, such as infrared, microwaves, and radio waves, consists of photons with too little energy to cause damaging molecular excitation, and thus this radiation is far less hazardous per unit of energy.

Interpretivist social scientists, by contrast, may use social critique or symbolic interpretation rather than constructing empirically falsifiable theories, and thus treat science in its broader sense.

This leads to a height variation and thus the image comes from the tip topography across the sample and gives a constant charge density surface ; this means contrast on the image is due to variations in charge density.

Since heavy elements ( high atomic number ) backscatter electrons more strongly than light elements ( low atomic number ), and thus appear brighter in the image, BSE are used to detect contrast between areas with different chemical compositions.

Biko can thus be seen as a follower of Fanon and Aimé Césaire, in contrast to more multi-racialist ANC leaders such as Nelson Mandela after his imprisonment at Robben Island, and Albert Luthuli who were first disciples of Gandhi.

In more modern works, One hundred years later, sociology sees tradition as a social construct used to contrast past with the present and as a form of rationality used to justify certain course of action.

For Jung, logos represented the masculine principle of rationality, in contrast to its female counterpart, eros:

By contrast, MacIntyre is concerned with reclaiming various forms of moral rationality and argumentation that claim neither ultimate finality nor incorrigible certainty ( the mistaken project of the Enlightenment ), but nevertheless do not simply bottom out into relativistic or emotivist denials of any moral rationality whatsoever ( according to him, the mistaken conclusion of Nietzsche, Sartre and Stevenson ).

It is in contrast to what later socialists referred to as " utopian socialism "; a method based on establishing seemingly rational propositions for organizing society and convincing others of their rationality and / or desirability.

In contrast to liberal individualism in theology, postliberal theology roots rationality not in the certainty of the individual thinking subject ( cogito ergo sum, " I think, therefore I am ") but in the language and culture of a living tradition of communal life.

Thus, Habermas can compare and contrast the rationality of various forms of society with an eye to the deeper and more universal processes at work, which enables him to justify the critique of certain forms ( i. e., that Nazism is irrational and bad ) and lend support to the championing of others ( i. e., democracy is rational and good ).

The relativists on the other hand can compare and contrast the rationality of various forms of society but are unable to take up a critical stance, because they can posit no standard of rationality outside the relative and variable content of the societies in question, which leads to absurd conclusions ( i. e., that Nazism is morally equivalent to democracy because the standards for both are relative ).

The sequence may involve a sharp contrast: for example, a quiet meditative sway of the body succeeded by a violent leap ; ;

When Heidegger and Sartre speak of a contrast between being and existence, they may be right, I don't know, but their language is too philosophical for me.

Belief in an afterlife, which may be naturalistic or supernatural, is in contrast to the belief in eternal oblivion after death.

By contrast, the Rijndael specification per se is specified with block and key sizes that may be any multiple of 32 bits, both with a minimum of 128 and a maximum of 256 bits.

However, they may become aware of the differences if, for example, they contrast the pronunciations of the following words:

* In contrast to Expressive aphasia, damage to the temporal lobe may result in a fluent aphasia that is called receptive aphasia ( also known as Sensory aphasia and Wernicke's aphasia ).

In contrast, one may need to perform less work to make part A be twice as fast.

As measurement of total and background absorption, and correction for the latter, are strictly simultaneous ( in contrast to LS AAS ), even the fastest changes of background absorption, as they may be observed in ET AAS, do not cause any problem.

The cores may be further uncoated to form 390S subcore particles that lack VP7, also in contrast to reovirus.

By contrast, a hard conversion or an adaptive conversion may not be exactly equivalent.

During dream sleep, in contrast, people who are awakened report rich and detailed experiences in which events form a continuous progression, which may however be interrupted by bizarre or fantastic intrusions.

Members may be re-elected indefinitely, and, in contrast to the previous system, there are no alternate congressmen.

Computational chemists, in contrast, may simply apply existing computer programs and methodologies to specific chemical questions.

In contrast, on July 21, 2010, in a lawsuit involving whether college cheerleading qualified as a sport for purposes of Title IX, a federal court, citing a current lack of program development and organization, ruled that it does not, but may in the future.

In contrast, relatively few crannogs have been excavated since the Second World War, although this number has steadily grown, especially since the early 1980s and may soon surpass pre-war totals.

In contrast, infinite-dimensional normed vector spaces may or may not be complete ; those that are complete are Banach spaces.

The contrast in approach may be summarized:

In contrast, endometrium that is chronically exposed to estrogens, but not to progesterone, may become hyperplastic.

In contrast, organisms that live in more moderate environments may be termed mesophiles or neutrophiles.

Sections of biological specimens, organic polymers and similar materials may require special ` staining ' with heavy atom labels in order to achieve the required image contrast.

In contrast, jump sequences are sets of jumps, which may involve steps or changes of edge between the jumps.

By contrast, methods such as POST, PUT and DELETE are intended for actions that may cause side effects either on the server, or external side effects such as financial transactions or transmission of email.

In contrast, the POST method is not necessarily idempotent, and therefore sending an identical POST request multiple times may further affect state or cause further side effects ( such as financial transactions ).
