Re: The Dunning-Kruger effect.
Ja, I point people to this theory on a regular basis in my daily life. I think it explains so much of what goes on around us.

Re: The Dunning-Kruger effect.
Funny how people agree with this theory regarding people around them. Who recognizes it in themselves?

Re: The Dunning-Kruger effect.
Imo it goes for everything that requires skill.
If you are intelligent you should at least be consciously incompetent and know if you are not a properly qualified professional that you will not be able to do the job.
More specific to what we talk about here on Gunsite and the internet you have people who have not had experience in building skills on a specific firearms platform but feel the need to impart their "knowledge", or their perceived knowledge, and get upset when they are challenged on that.
There are lots of examples of this all around us all the time and not everyone is going to know what does not know but most of us should have a sense of unconscious
incompetence for most things most of the time.
