WHY do you want to advance science?
Do you even know WHY or are you just a machine following orders from your environment?
WHY do you want to advance science?
Curiosity, There's so much we don't know. Finding out what that is gives us meaning.
I want a sense of accomplishment in the only thing that I might be able to do something real in because I'm terrible at everything else.
Yeah this.
I have been intenesely curious about how everything works since I was a child.
I can't wrap my brain around the idea of people who lack curiosity.
Something to do in the interim before my death
Why not?
But WHY are you curious?
Because that's how my brain is wired presumably.
I'm just in it because I like it, mostly the problem solving aspect. I'm not particularly curious about the world and I don't care about advancing science, it's just a hell of a lot better than say, economics or something.
Why is it wired that way?
