Even though he cites his claims, and adds warnings of them being new or lacking other supporting evidence to live by, it is weird to then have still be elevated by him on a health podcast that people often apply to their lives.
I try to think of it like if there was a programming content creator saying Elxir is powerful and ready enough to use everywhere. Though it is true enough that it can be used anywhere, but anyone here could probably point out a bunch of situations you really should never ever use something like it. But imagine someone without that experience not knowing and taking their word for it and put it into prod blindly, it be a huge waste of time and money. Time and money is one thing but in health, knowing media and reading literacy is dropping, its just something if I where in his position I would see it as irresponsible to even mention some of the stuff he does.
- mrinterweb 2y agoYou lost me on the Elixir analogy. Elixir is great . I'll concede Elixir would not be well suited for a 3D physics engine or for writing hardware drivers.
- AnEro 2y agoFair enough, my point is mostly that even though it is great we have evidence it's great, but without context of a professional insight it can be terrible. Alot of those studies are the same situation, it is great in their context, terrible outside of it only doctors and most of the time specialist will be able to tell. Then that information is structured for a layman, like imagine brand-new devs walking into a bootcamp thinking Elixir is safe main language to learn based on YC hype. As good as it is, it doesn't have a big job market, has specialized use cases, and has the same dev environment/knowledge base of node/js in the late 2000's early 2010's.
