Its why I hate being the "smart one" at work and amongst friends and family. The smartest people I know don't automatically answer every question they get asked or don't take it upon themselves to find an answer. I have some fucking horrible compulsion to find the correct answer to everything.
The smartest people I know can stick to their domain. They seem far less stressed. And they are able to be content knowing there are things they don't know.
To me, knowing a lot doesnt equate to intelligence in the slightest.
The more you learn, the more you realize just how much knowledge you lack. And it never stops getting worse. At some point I started realizing there were things I didn't even understand how I knew them. I'm sure all of you are aware of how disturbing that feels. The inability to provide knowledge of the self.
I would NEVER give medical or legal, or safety advice outside of the realm of electronics and softwate. I can certainly tell you what I know but I will also tell you that a person with a license and malpractice insurance behind them is necessary to tell you want to do with that knowledge.
People don't like that. People don't like it when they think you are smart and state something "without confidence like that." They like it even less when they find out your knowledge was sufficient and they "wasted money on a professional."
Trump does this shit the same reasons mid level and higher level managers do all their stupid shit. Because people prefer it when you are strictly confident, especially when you are confident about something that would benefit them, completely detached from the reality if it will or won't.
"Once, men turned their thinking over to machines, believing it would free them. Instead, it allowed other men with machines to enslave them." (Paraphrased quote from Dune)
I don't know. Maybe it was an AI bot that got it's feelings hurt by Frank Herbert and the system noticed the downvote was caused by AI so it inverted it's vote.
The AI Bot, meant to free humans from thinking, ended up being enslaved by The System.
"Once men turned their thinking over to machines in the hope that this would set them free. But that only permitted other men with machines to enslave them."
What's mindfuckingly frustrating is that EVERYONE (but the rich ass financial types) see it coming. And there is ABSOLUTELY NOTHING WE CAN DO to prevent or prepare for it.
Couldn't you just, idk. Use a small diameter steel pipe and the rest of it printed? Maybe im missing a whole crapload of physics for that to be sufficient
