Ducks-Are-Fish Realization

If there is something you thought for a long time, and finally realized it is different, then it is a ducks-are-fish realization.
This comes from the time when I thought ducks and chickens were the same animal, and when I found out they were different, I immediately had the assumption that ducks were not birds. And when someone asked me, I responded "I think they're fish."
name just came to the ducks-are-fish realization that tortillas are not made with bread, but instead derived from wheat or corn.

The belief that the entities, laws, and structures described by successful scientific theories (like electrons, natural selection, or gravitational waves) are real, mind-independent features of the world, and that science progressively uncovers this objective truth. Theories may change, but they converge on an accurate description of reality "as it is."
Example: A scientific-epistemological realism believes that DNA existed and carried genetic information long before humans discovered it. The shift from Newtonian physics to Einsteinian relativity wasn't a change of arbitrary stories, but a closer approximation to the actual fabric of spacetime. When physicists talk about the Higgs boson, they're not just describing a useful calculation tool; they believe it's a real particle their instruments actually detected.

Pragmatic Anti-realism

The position that it is meaningless or pointless to talk about a reality completely independent of our conceptual schemes and practical engagements. What we call "truth" or "reality" is constituted by what works for us within our forms of life. There is no "God's-eye view" to compare our useful theories to; the only criteria for judgment are coherence, utility, and fruitfulness within our human practices.
Example: For a Pragmatic Anti-realist, saying "electrons exist" means "using the concept of 'electrons' allows us to build functioning computers, predict chemical reactions, and communicate successfully with other scientists." They deny we need to (or can) say anything about what electrons are "in themselves," apart from their role in our successful ways of acting and talking about the world. Pragmatic Anti-realism

Confirmation Bias Realism

The pragmatic, Kant-informed position that while our reality is indeed filtered through innate and learned biases, this is realism for us. We cannot escape our confirmatory frameworks, so the "real" world is the one we collaboratively construct and confirm through shared biases (cultural, scientific, linguistic). Truth is a high-stability confirmation bias agreed upon by a community.
Example: The scientific method is the ultimate expression of confirmation bias realism. It doesn't claim to find bias-free truth, but a stable, inter-subjective truth by making our biases (hypotheses) explicit and rigorously testing them against a shared reality, creating a consensus confirmation that we accept as "real."
