/sci/ - Science & Math

Lets talk about this board, and the ways we might improve it.

The major issue I have with this board is the ingrained 'can't do' attitude it seems to have.
Ideas are shot down with no serious investigation into its content or explanation.
Thats not how science operates.

I can accept there are stupid questions or propositions, but they deserve answers.
Shitposting "Nope, wouldn't work" is not acceptable.
Why wouldn't it work? Can it be worked around? Are alternatives available?

This is why we have a failing scientific literacy rate. IQ bros putting everyone down, or dirt lovers that don't want to consider any new ideas.
Even if the poster is a complete ignoramus, they are trying in their own small way.
Why is this board not trying to foster that?
