Ah. Finally took the time to read one of your longer posts in this thread. Sorry. Just skimming here.
Specifically why is it so disturbing to you if 100% of all people don’t happen to agree on this one issue?
I don’t think it’s disturbing. I agree consensus is not relevant.
Also think most exchanges in this forum show a robust lack of agreement across many issues.
Also, I think many folks on this forum understand the philosophical issue of the complexity of pinning down truth and the possibility of fluctuations and convolutions of knowledge.
But I regret posting to this thread. Not a big fan of philosophical distinctionizing.
I’m interested in this fusion project because, at the end of the day, “truth” or “theory” notwithstanding, either we’re going to have a measurable source of energy, or we aren’t. If it’s not measurable, if it’s only theoretical, it won’t do me any good.
And the only way I’ll know I “happened to be” right is if there is a measurable result.
So, people who, and posts that are “measurement oriented” are a bit more appealing to me at this time. Seem to be sharpening the right tools.
Just where I’m at.
