With so much information accessible at the tips of our fingers, it's easy for anyone to think that they're an expert. Without realizing it, they're missing the context, experience, and knowledge of the framework that's used to properly define the information they think they're an authority in—all things that an actual expert would know and possess.

He adamantly refused to listen to the installer's attempts at reason, forcing him to call his boss and get approval for things to be done the way that he wanted. Well, the predictable happened, and the results were disastrous, sending the boss, who still refused to accept that they were wrong, into a frenzy.
