Very true. You can easily tell from the YouTubers. When you listen to them, it's clear they don't know what they're talking about because of half the things they pronounce incorrectly or incorrectly reference something.

I look forward to your fascinating work on phrenology next. It’s always amazing such smurt people like you always seem to forget your own statistical irrelevance. “Oh no the sound forms don’t come out just right.” What a giant foot going to squish us? Minus the anxiety of being smiting you’re projecting some bizarre obligation to your lived experience. Why don’t you say things in the old Latin language? Yeah that’s right we move on from written and spoken traditions, just need to properly apply physical statistics to the real engineering. The stupid babble is in a YT video is far removed from actually building a bridge or another context where the physics matters more than the Anglicanized circumlocution.

  It's not a big deal, it's just ONE piece of evidence the YouTuber has no experience and is just being a schill for something. You have to be aware of being marketed to. This is how it works these days. No more TV ads.

> pronounce incorrectly Knowing the correct pronunciation means you watch videos or have a social group that discusses it, that doesn't mean you are necessarily competent like someone who reads primary sources.

  Agreed. Especially when so much jargon in software these days is made up marketing speak that has little relevance to managing electromagnetic geometry in the machine. It’s often a very intellectually dishonest industry.

  Or you worked in an office. Or remote on Zoom. Or you read (projects and articles often explain how to pronounce). So you know... experience in the industry. But I'm not even talking about the weird names for things either.
