What philosophical believes do most sciencekins follow?
Logical positivism seems to be outdated in their community is there something that replaced it?

naive scientism is pretty widespread among the fedora tippers, but actual scientists are somewhat more likely to have a more nuanced understanding of philosophy of science, but there's lots of variation
>Implying STEMfags can get into philosophy.

Science has been twisted in favor of any number of philosophical and theological predispositions. Especially the "Sciences" that use statistical research methods. Some physicists will gladly tell you that saying the universe sprang forth from a singularity is a lot like saying "god did it," and some biologists think something like plato's logos exists at the end of time as a transcendental attractor to which all of biology evolves toward in the universe's endless groping toward self-comprehension. Some pharmacologists get some funny ideas about the torah after using dmt. It's really all the same shit.

Maths people are pretty good at philosophy and are at a great NEET level for it.
People in science fields proper are just frat boys.

Yes because Kant wasn't also a scientist and isn't loved by physicists

Kant went to school back when everyone learned everything and when it was philosophy's job to talk about everything.
You can't honestly be implying that science majors are Kants in the making.
Scientists think that everything can be reduced to numbers and then simply compared.
For example my friend thinks that one day in the future, we will be able to measure the pain of a murder and compare it to the satisfaction that it causes, and then if its a positive number, its a "bad" thing, and if its a negative number, its a "good" thing.
Science has been post-positivist since the works of Karl Popper.
