Why is this post not getting more comments!? It's one of the most important dynamics driving innovation in technology. On the one hand, the misconceived confidence of an unskilled newbie gives him/her the motivation to dive into the unknown, tackling difficult problems that others have tried and failed. But he/she does not know that. If the person is smart and persistent enough, there might be a chance of a breakthrough. I think there are plenty of examples in science and mathematics where a new perspective from an unknown scholar helps solve a hard problem. On the other hand, the skilled people, knowing the particular problem is hard, won't bother to try. And the consequence is too much knowledge is a impediment to progress.
