If the quality of doctors follows the same distribution as that one of SW engineers, taking advice of a stranger might have a similar use as looking for answers on stack overflow.
After all, they are all self-taught..
- SpeedilyDamage 4y ago> If the quality of doctors follows the same distribution as that one of SW engineers How could you possibly think that it does, considering the entire ocean of difference between their education and training???
- bootloop 4y agoDoes that have much of an impact on distribution? I don't think so. You still gonna have ones which are very good at their job, some are average and the rest is part of the long tail. Edit: Also in context of the conversation above, what I wanted to suggest is that that information can still be very valuable to whoever reads it. Even if it comes from someone who is not a doctor.
- SpeedilyDamage 4y agoIt absolutely does narrow the distribution substantially.
