>Wikipedia is quick, easy, and good enough [from the video] No one can be an expert, or take the time for deep dive, on every topic, so I love the fact that most of the time I can do a quick sanity check on an alleged fact, or learn the gist of some new (to me) concept or theory, using Wikipedia. In my own personal areas of expertise, I almost never rely on Wikipedia even for an overview, and I suspect that is true for others. Even this speaker acknowledges that he doesn't know of many alternate sources for topics outside his specialty like math, science, etc., so why not love Wikipedia for lighting at least a candle in those areas where your current vision is most limited by darkness? His main complaint boils down to Wikipedia does too good of a job of collecting a lot of generally reliable information about a topic in one place, without the benefit of someone like him to interpret, explain, and distill it for us.
