I question your understanding of how science works. Actually, I question your ability to program also. I often go out to the community to find out if there are other issues, or maybe something simple that I forgot. Using your peers for help is not a weakness, it's a strength.
- fusiongyro 14y agoScience is about performing experiments and replicating them, not about debugging hardware. A friend of mine famously complained that his computer was broken because his C programs weren't compiling. He had misspelled "include." The "community" didn't need to step up and help him. He needed to learn how to use his tools.
- ThePherocity 14y agoWell, I wasn't sure before, but you've removed all doubt.
- fusiongyro 14y agoYou know, I'm not a scientist, so it's quite possible I've misunderstood the situation here. But if nothing else, what I'm saying is exactly what you can expect the average person with some education—albeit not a scientist—to think, based on a casual knowledge of physics (the role of the speed of light, etc.) reading these headlines. I don't think I've been particularly discourteous to you, but if I have, I apologize. It would be more helpful in the future to show me what I haven't seen rather than simply insult me.
