"When Life gives you lemons, make cartridges."

A mad scientist obsessed with experimentation and Truth. Personal philosophy: "The most beautiful things in the world are the things you can't destroy." In other words, I believe true beauty is rooted in objectivity (i.e. Truth) which is absolute, not subjectivity (personal feelings, tastes, or opinions).

Once a scientist stumbles on a discovery, it it is their duty to try and dismantle it. For example, if I provide you a list of numbers and ask you to deduce a pattern from it (by asking me if a number fits the sequence or not) your goal should be to challenge your guesses, by trying to throw numbers that don't seem to fit the pattern. The Truth is "unbreakable" (i.e. completely consistent) and so the pattern you conjectured should hold under ALL cases (and therefore fit the actual pattern). Perfect example: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vKA4w2O61Xo.

The quest for Truth requires that we play "Devil's Advocate" with ourselves in order to challenge our assumptions and biases. So to me, the pursuit of Truth is analogous to that of the mining for diamonds (both of which are incredibly tough and typically of huge value).
