What would you ask to someone who's very important in your field?
The visual for me of someone very important in my field is like a palomino with a honey colored mane. And I'd probably ask it like, "who's the best boy? Is it you? Yes? Yes, you're the best boy."
Honestly it would be 'can I work for you?'. I'd love to have a mentor - kinda sick of being self-taught.
Doesn't keeping your password on a post-it note under your keyboard make you a giant hypocrite?
I wouldnโt. They donโt have the answers either.
How much damage do you think YouTube historical "experts" have done to the popular perception of the past and can we fix it
... you mean with field my job? I'd ask them if they want to hire me. Probably.
I don't have a professional field, but I have fields of interest. Here's something I asked Neale Donald Walsch the other day (he didn't answer): "CWG says that, though evil is subjective, to see nothing as evil would be the greatest evil of all. It also says to condemn nothing and nobody. (Actual question, not rhetorical): How exactly are we supposed to regard evil if not to condemn it?"
If you want an answer about a "real" field, though, I would ask Zizek if he knew he was being funny when he said this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a5yoqjABeBM&ab_channel=TheRadicalRevolution
Or I would ask, umm, John Carmack or Jon Blow or someone if learning Rust is as easy as learning (non-expert level) C++.
