    The scientific method is more about falsification than problem solving.

    “If you ever succeed, devise and implement a test to see if it was a fluke.”

    Sometimes it takes failing several times before you’ve learned enough to do it correctly. Not everything is “study the process fully and thoroughly, and do it perfectly the first time! 😤”

      You cannot learn anything without failing. The fact we don’t embrace this culturally is a tragedy.

        I teach a basic programming class. Third lesson is about inheritance and interfaces. I give them an execercise where they have to implement some interfaces and end up making a " diamond of death". The exercise is called the Kobayashi Maru

        A lot of people take failure personally, and become scared to even try in the first place. Failure is seen as shameful, rather than a learning opportunity to better yourself.

      Sometimes the answer to “why did it go wrong” is “because I need to practice more”.

      Like, I know how to play the piano, I know how notes and keys work and in theory, I should be pretty good. In reality, I’m just shit at it because I never practiced.

    If at first you don’t succeed, avoid child endangerment charges and put your students in another irresponsible situation next week.

    This show lied about how salmon spawned.

    Also, her class cheated at that basketball game. I wonder what the Fritz was doing during the 1930s

    Who even decides which kids get to go to her class?

    Why is not the right question it leads to ambiguous answers.

    instead of why… find out how, when, and what.
