Thanks Jon. I agree, "That's intellectual inadequacy." is a good term to describe. I get you haven't seen it here, but I have. I think one of the things I base

Thanks Jon. I agree, "That's intellectual inadequacy." is a good term to describe. I get you haven't seen it here, but I have.
I think one of the things I base this one is, you see posts on here about aliens, UFOs, remote viewing, right? All of this paranormal psychology stuff. And you see all these replies like: X is impossible (with X being: aliens exist; aliens would visit us; aliens could visit us; aliens are visiting us; remote viewing is real). And people often invariably say: "It's not possible to do X using physics". And I'm like: but physics isn't settled, we don't know everything, it's so arrogant! But they don't budge, they don't care. So it very much is a real thing.
You don't even have to get such common topics--I mean all kinds of non-mainstream topics, which I would love engineers to engage with--they don't. Pandemic: conformity of thinking; all kinds of stuff and they just stick to the mainstream narrative. Anyway, I've definitely seen that. I get if you haven't, but it's out there, man. Hah :)
