RE: My article on Steemit for Independent Australia: "Steem: Social media platform mirrors real-world economics and inequality"
I am more depressed that I have been on this platform for as long as I have, and have fundamentally misunderstood the functioning a relatively high level aspect of it.
If you can't affect my "reputation" then reputation isnt a reputation at all. Its a bullshit number.
I've had my PhD for nearly 3 years, and have been teaching for nearly 10, and I'm still wrong about things on a pretty regular basis. Adjusting your views in light of new evidence, or a better understanding of existing evidence, does not require you beating yourself up about it.
I'm not. Being disappointed is a natural emotion, but it's fleeting. I am wrong about things daily, part of being a research scientist. ;)
