The first two are:
1.When a distinguished but elderly scientist states that something is possible, he is almost certainly right. When he states that something is impossible, he is very probably wrong.
2.The only way of discovering the limits of the possible is to venture a little way past them into the impossible.
Arthur C. Clarke, the famed sci-fi author who penned these laws, is probably best known for co-authoring the screenplay to 2001: A Space Odyssee
I’d heard of that as Hanlon’s razor:
Edit: Hanlon, not Hanson
I usually agree with this, which is why i hated the r/theyknew subreddit, where people claimed everything ever was on purpose and never thought anyone could simply make a mistake however obvious it could be.
however not only does this not apply to politics, it’s almost certainly reversed every time, even if stupidity is involved. for example Republicans are stupid, but they don’t do what they do because they’re stupid; they do it because they’re demons.
That’s Hanlon.
Said stupidity in this case shall be applied to your autocorrect.
Haha, thanks, and yes I’m pretty sure it was autocorrect.
And it is used as a blank check by malicious politicians around the world since decades, if not centuries.
