"I fear we are witnessing the “death of expertise”
A very interesting article Thanks . . A couple of very nice sentences in it , my 2 favorites in the context of this Forum are :
he dumber you are, the more confident you are that you’re not actually dumb. And when you get invested in being aggressively dumb…well, the last thing you want to encounter are experts who disagree with you, and so you dismiss them in order to maintain your unreasonably high opinion of yourself.
and
the perverse effect of the death of expertise is that without real experts, everyone is an expert on everything
@ pax britanica :
CNN B52 item , didn't notice the lady commander
at the beginning and at the very end.
on B52 what actually is the right main gear!
Do not know, never flew on one
but that is how the lady in command ( at least the one on the left seat) identifies the one malfunctioning.
