It's much more so the work you do that's important, not the idea itself.
Yes and no, i'm not talking about technicians(, even though in a team of technicians there's still some persons better than the average), but about scientists emiting theories, there's a reason why theorems or units of measures have the name of a person, and the book cited in the selftext is another justification : some scientists are known in their field for being important(, some are important/known mostly because of their positions, but others because of their groundbreaking ideas/discoveries).
But sure, it's a teamwork, especially when putting theory into practice.
As for the other argument, i don't want to have someone good at that kind of performance, i'm not talking about entertainment but about someone unknown and passionate about h.er.is field of study, who cares if s.he is in front of the camera for the first&last time of h.er.is life, it could eventually be prepared beforehand, but i'm not talking about the guests invited by Lex Friedman, such as Neil deGrasse Tyson or other popularizers/showmen, they may be scientists as well but i wasn't talking about them(, some emissions search&invite such people but there's only a few).
As i said it's natural that we're choosing entertainment over, e.g., studying manuals after work, it's not a real criticism but it'll hopefully change one day(, retrieving the level of the aristocrats of the past, but for everyone this time), which shouldn't be difficult since almost everyone wants to be better/more, just that life usually seems too 'time-consuming'&short for that.
(i've also realized today that my favorite people, mostly Raphaël Enthoven(, i'd never reach his level in a century, really glad that there's at least one person like him,) and Étienne Chouard, but also Idriss Aberkane and kinda François Asselineau, and clearly Elon Musk as well, are all hated by the population(, or at least the french lemmy instance), of course we'll ignore God, hate other countries, and belittle our superior ancestors(, the least writing of the past is still written in a better way than the best conversation on Lemmy), i'm feeling at odd, there's either a problem with me or with society and it's kinda annoying sometimes, and the so-called "reasons" are so absurd, similarly to how Lemmy will hate Trump on, e.g., him saying that some immigrants ate pets or any other argument really, for most people we've been told to hate even if we've never accomplished anything ourselves, we don't even realize the problem with our absence of any real/solid argument, people in real life are way better than online, perhaps because we don't really care about making efforts online since it'll be forever lost to time, it's not a reflection of society)
I'm trying to write something interesting, you're not đź‘Ž
It's easy to write something that everyone will agree with, but it's less useful/interesting i.m.h.o.
Yeah, among the affirmations that i knew would displeased the crowd in my last comment, Elon Musk is freaking awesome, better than all of you combined. You'll probably have difficulties to find where you disagree with the mainstream medias or the Lemmy users/mindhive(, try it, have you found at least one disagreement ?), and not even ask yourself why you don't have real/solid reasons to hate better people than you, sick.
Nobody will change their mind through insults or mod censorship, having the mass behind you doesn't mean you're right if you're unable to argue(, which, as you'll convince yourself, you could easily do but don't want to, don't feed the troll or w/e). Being a bunch of haters is one thing, but doing so without solid arguments is another, don't be surprised that sheeple is a word, we've simply seen the level of your (non-)argumentation online(, often inexistent, or a 1000 times worse than in newspapers, even if, beyond being recruited/fired by their capitalists owners, journalists have to suck since they usually have to write multiples(!) articles/day, not one per week or even month, so it's unavoidable).
