does your "Bullshit Detector" work ?

[Skean Dhude]

Most of us don't have a good BS detector in general.
Most of us don't think logically.
Some of us are very good at producing BS.
A small amount can produce BS to fool all but a few of us.

Only working closely with someone or working on an area you know well can help you detect BS.

That is why there are so many con artists, politicians get reelected time after time and there are so many false understandings around.

In our situation there are just too many things we don't understand, too many things we can't try out and too many bits of conflicting advice. We have to take a lot of care with what we take as gospel and there are certain people that are worth listening to, and some who are not, on every site.
