- devopsproject 9y agoWe all start from zero. If a person can't be knowledgeable after a bit of rigor, then no one can be trusted in any subject and we can see how everything will become "fake news" and "alterntative facts"
- mathperson 9y agoI suppose. Another part of this I try to read science writers who have a bit of a stem background, like the very good http://www.ericaklarreich.com/ http://www.ericaklarreich.com/ I find people with no stem background, even when they mean very well and work hard, just miss a lot when doing writing of this sort. They simply do not and in a real sense cannot understand the process of creating new scientific knowledge. Their impressions are merely metaphorical and not direct. Having the words 'genius' in the title...ugh. I suppose I am maybe not the target audience for this though.
