So in this model, scientists are the avalanche dogs who report "nope, no people over there" and thereby help narrow down the rescuers' efforts?
- gradschoolfail 2y agoJust a clarification here.. there i assumed the readingmode (like you?) in which scientists are to be identified with the badfaith-clueless So, if i understood ww4 correctly, it is more like, dog reports correctly that theres no person, but the rescuers are actually looking for a horse. Whereas the lazy (=theoretical) engineerdonkey might say, i detected scent of a horse but didnt actually look, was thinking about that windmill, sorry!
