Re: [Avid-L2] Re: Avid Percent of NLE sales compared to FCP

 

How could it be anything BUT unsubstantiated. If it were substantiated you'd say, "I know that FCP X will have such and such a feature because I have specific proof from inside." THAT is substantiated. Proof. Something to bring to a court of law. Guessing at things, no matter how educated the guess, is still unsubstantiated. It's conjecture. Conjecture MEANS formuation of a theory WITHOUT PROOF. You CAN'T have proof about a piece of software that isn't being released for 12 months. You can make educated guesses, but that is conjecture. Otherwise your percentage would be 100%. Not to mention your own word "hypotheses." A hypotheses is a GUESS, a supposition, an opinion of an outcome. Scientists obviously guess pretty well, but a hypotheses is, by nature a GUESS.

There's no shame in guessing. I'm not saying you're a terrible blogger because you guess. Your guesses are educated.
