You know, with these hard stones, you know, copper is useless. And you really need other stones to cut it. So I know, you know, a lot of people who listen to this may say, oh, this is all bullshit. And the pseudoscience, well, it's pseudoscience unless you apply scientific technique to it. And then it becomes real science.

And to give you an example, like I spent a year learning how to measure, actually more than a year, how to measure viscosity of crude oil. You know, it took me that long to figure it out. And then I spent, you know, another year or two and I'm still learning how to measure neutrons and gammas. And I'm just getting started, you know, with metrology.

It's just, you know, a never-ending learning process. But that's only, you know, one facet of what tells, I think, amateur apart from scientist. And we're talking about idealistic scientists, because, you know, scientists are people. Some are better than others, but, you know, what I consider an ideal for a scientist. A scientist would always remain in doubt.

And most people, you know, when they measure something, They want to prove something. There is like a certain point they want to prove. And that's the point they're invested in. And once you are invested in a certain point, you are very subjective about it. you want it to be true and you will be upset if it is not so.

And it's understandable because let's say if you're an entrepreneur and you're making a claim that your widget does something miraculous, of course you want that claim to be true and you have no incentive to doubt yourself about it because then you undermine your sales pitch or your investor pitch. It's understandable. If you're an academic, then your grants depend on the veracity of your claims.

So you want to be correct, or you will not get the next round of funding, may not get the next round of funding. But unfortunately, this partiality to the outcome detracts from the truth. And that was the reason why I didn't go into academia once I realized that Academic scientists by far and large are partial to their pet theories, pet ideas, pet whatever. Nobody's interested in truth anymore.

And then you become critical. In science, you have to be critical because that's kind of the scientific process. You are critical about everything and about your own thoughts and line of thinking in the first place. Because if you're critical, you can have the discussion and you can uncover truth. But if you're not critical, well, you're never going to uncover anything new.
