It has taught me to question everything we know, because it is thanks to this that great discoveries are made.

"The scientist is not the person who gives the right answers, but the one who asks the right questions" Claude Lévi-Strauss.

You can't always trust science because people are imperfect...

And just because someone published a paper or a patent on a specific reaction doesn't mean that it's going to work

True, thankfully we can usually peer review any new findings and verify their validity

Data is extremely easy to manipulate, so you can't trust ever "expert report" out there

Failure is inevitable, and every mistake is a learning opportunity. Humanity's greatest achievements are built on the back of trial and error

The interconnectedness of life.

Negative knowledge can often be as valuable as positive knowledge

I know barely anything about anything, in a good way. My knowledge is deep for my particular field, but it's very narrow and focused

That it is OK to be wrong; it's still useful data, and it will add to the experiment.

Science has taught me that there are still innumerable mysteries in our universe, things that we can neither explain nor fully understand. And with each new thing you learn, you come up with three or four new questions that never would have occurred to you if it were not for what you just observed. It's really an exciting concept to me.

We are very much like walking petri dishes. We carry so many different lifeforms on and in our bodies and each of them has its very own ecosystem; some of them can be deadly to us, which is why we need to keep our bodies in the best possible shape to fight off any attacks. It's fascinating to think that so much of what we think of as being our bodies is really just made up of millions of microorganisms.

Jumped from public to a job in a place run by boomers but I just wanted out of public so I took the first offer that came to me. 5 months in and I realized it's not a good fit at all. Mainly the CFO thinks no one should be working from home, and working from anywhere but the office is considered a day off to him. Is this a good reason to apply for other jobs right now?
