The internet has helped make everyone a fucking expert with no expertise

PeWu,

I just assume I don’t know anything, and I’m saying what I know, trying to convey my method of thinking about problem. It’s mostly for me to check if other side can communicate, and we can exchange useful information

CADmonkey,

This is weirdly specific, but I’ve sadly been in more than one internet “discussion” where a CNC laser cutter is shown in a video, and some knob end pops up in the comments and says “ThAt’S a PlAsMa CuTtEr NoT a LaSer sToOpId”.

For about ten years I set up, operated, programmed, maintained, and repaired both plate and tube lasers made by NTC, Mitsubishi, Amada, Trumpf, Han Kwang, Mazak, and BLM. I know enough about industrial lasers to make them boring. I can tell if a shop has a laser just by driving by. A plasma cutter works different, sounds different, and cuts different than a laser, and even someone who knows nothing about either process can see there is a difference.

iesou,

When that happens I usually get banned for the community

superkret,

So, what’s your subject?
And why is the most popular opinion about it wrong?

Track_Shovel,

Mine is soil. I’ve got a graduate degree in soil science.

The most popular opinion that is wrong is all of the common ones. Soil science takes 5 science disciplines ( bio, physics, Chem, plant nutrition, and soil development) and rolls them all into one.

Not all tillage is bad

Not all amendments are good or work

There is just such a big gap in common knowledge when it comes to this topic and a lot of ‘experts’

Which soil tastes best?

Get on Reddit and comment that something other than AMD, Corsair or any other heavily shilled brand makes a better preforming product and you can experience this first-hand.

CADmonkey,

I don’t want to go to reddit, but let me try something:

starts copy and pasting links bookmarked since the 1990s

I want you to know, little one, I take no joy in doing this.

zero_spelled_with_an_ecks,

Oh no, they feel the same way with less knowledge.

PorkTaco,

Never argue with an idiot. They will drag you down to their level and beat you with experience.

balderdash9,

I mean, in some areas the same facts can lead to reasonable differences in opinion. But in other fields there are objective right/wrong answers

Starshader,

Objectivity doesn’t exist.

Kant, and friends.
