Evidence of liquid water regularly occuring near the surface is very exciting though. This isn't cool because they might find H2O, we know that there is H2O, this is cool because having liquid water near the surface increases the chance of finding life.

So, even if it is technically possible to do well in a given media, if it is really hard to identify who is a genuine expert in that media due to it being new and full of snake-oil merchants, then you are likely to do better in a more established field.

It is very good at giving me pictures of the more expensive things that I have recently bought, should I suddenly need two.

Alternatively I might be talking bollocks, I did first think of this while pretty drunk.

I'd put it as "All empiricists have faith that there is not much point in being an empiricist if there is a comedy god fiddling the numbers on purpose, purely to screw with the notion of empiricism, so therefore they cheerfully discount that notion as otherwise they wouldn't get much done."

That said, there will always be some things for which economies of scale win out against customisation, and I suspect that many electronics components are in that bracket. Luckily we have things like FPGAs, so you don't need to keep a huge stock of specialised chips to make a wide variety of devices.

Besides, as long as you know what you are doing it is just another material to select from and you just calculate critical dimensions based on measured properties.

only if it is coded badly

I would generally agree, but the calculus changes slightly for banking.

Looking about there are many and varied ones and they seem to have been going a lot longer than that, not all of them are run by light skinned folk though.

Quite often their leaders wear elaborate hats, you must have seen them on the telly. Is not all they do, but it does seem to be a theme.

You must have seen them, they have loads of pointy buildings everywhere, with slightly different styles to show which team they are on.

And each team has a book. You know.
