You wouldn't know logic if it slapped you upside the head.

Yeah, I know, what's that mean?

It's not that I don't believe in iPhones just because I haven't seen them, I don't believe in them because I know they making them would be a huge engineering challenge. And the primary reason I don't believe in prisons is that prisons appear to contradict the Karl Popper's Principle of Rationality, which is one of the basic principles of modern social sciences.

Bless your heart.  Just because you cannot fathom how something can be done does not mean that it can't be done by others.

You seem to misunderstand both the capabilities of engineers and what Popper was talking about.

What do you mean I am misunderstanding the capabilities of engineers? I am an engineer. I have a Bachelor degree in computer engineering.

Are you a team of 12 000 computer engineers?

A truly frightening thought.  And a slap in the face to engineers who have a clue.

His truly excels at one thing: the argument from incredulity. In this case, since he doesn’t know how to build an iPhone, no one can build an iPhone.

And since he hasn't been to prison, yet, there can be no prisons.

I wouldn't put money on that.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!
