A relative of mine in St Petersburg has a burnt-out electric kettle.
It wouldn't turn on.
He called me in Kaliningrad, and I explained him - where to go ("come out of the entrance, turn left ..."), that it's not on the ground floor of a supermarket, but one floor below, and which kettle to buy ...

People just don't want to "fill their heads" with all sorts of thoughts about kettles, robots ...
You send them to read articles, for example about "the speed of self-caching indicators", "managed optimization,""money management by Vince," and he has a burnt kettle, and you from Kaliningrad tell them where to go in St. Petersburg, not to make a mistake and buy just an electric kettle.

 

Why am I always talking about men...

Happy 8th of March dear ladies.

There is an opinion among specialists in human intelligence that we are witnessing the formation of two new races of people (replacing the existing ones): people who read signs and people who can read and understand books. At the same time, it is argued that it will be impossible to teach the former to the latter, as the former lack a piece of brain. Just like chimpanzees cannot be taught to speak.

There is another thing here - both are the same.
It's just a matter of priorities.

If a person has on any day, for example, such things as the following:

  • Pay the electricity bill (remember how to pay, where to pay);
  • buy something in a shop that the wife said (a list on a pen, sometimes with pictures);
  • work (many people think about work at home too);
  • problems (personal or at work);
  • and so on,

There is simply no time for such an activity as reading articles for half a day and thinking about it.

Life (and probably time) is speeding up, and people choose something more immediate from priorities, on the principle - "If I manage to do it or understand it today in half an hour, it's OK. If not, it's not even worth starting.

 

Strange, why are people drawn to buy milk at the Moloko shop? After all, everyone in the town knows that if the shop is called "Moloko" from the Moloko plant (dairy), they sell vodka there.
And in shops and kiosks "Press" - sell beer and cigarettes.

So ... I remember a philosophy teacher.
When we were in high school we used to go to his courses on Kant at the university on the other side of town.

I met him recently, at the press shop, he was buying kefir there... They don't even ask for newspapers in that newsagent's for a long time now, and he was buying kefir :)
He's still the same ... all about Kant ... he almost forgot his kefir when I met him and reminded him about the electives and Kant ...

Such people read articles, think, try to understand...
But they are few and far between...

Unfortunately I have forgotten the name of the female scientist (I have cited her on this thread) who is popularising the latest findings in the field of intelligence. She cites physiological differences in the brains of people who read signs and people who read books. You, on the other hand, cite the results of these differences. If adults require you to explain in the volume of a tweet, the knowledge that requires more explanation is never available to them. There is no fix for that.

 
My cat used to wake everyone up at 4am saying 'Mummy' when he wanted to eat...
That is, it is possible to teach (especially to a man) everything.

The question is about priorities - is it important for someone to sit for half a day with articles and posts on forums, or do they have more urgent things that can't wait.

And the issue here is the presentation of information ... If it's short, clear and presented in a way that even a primary school child can understand, that's fine.

But there's another question - how long will they last on mql5.com portal ...

The brain has nothing to do with it, it's a habit, I'd say it's a teacher's problem.

A bear can ride a bike but my 6 year old daughter can't, so she's worse than a bear (I can't teach her to do it).

Back. Many brain functions eventually transferred to the back, so as not to load the brain, the ability to walk, catch a ball, etc. is the habit of conditioned reflexes, for which the back (spinal cord), and it does not have to think.

It is the same with reading signs and books, if a person does not need to read a book in everyday life, it does not mean that the part of the brain responsible for it has become scarred. He just lost the habit of reading books and got the habit of reading signs.

and as soon as the environment changes, so does the ability to read signs.

There will be withdrawal, it will be difficult for this person, but he will adapt.

I referred to another opinion, the opinion of a very competent person Chernigovskaya Tatiana Vladimirovna . Here is a link to a collection of YouTube. What I have read is not the most interesting, there are more interesting things. She often gives lectures on channel "Culture".


Immanuel Kant, the objective idealist, was mentioned here. Such a trend in philosophy, which believed (200 years ago) that the world is inside us, not outside. So, Chernigovskaya states approximately the same on the basis of experiments: it only seems to us that we make any decisions. all decisions, all actions, actions, thoughts - all this is initially, initially taken OUTSIDE our consciousness - by our subconscious, and then we are like parrots only voicing/activating all accepted by our brain.



PS.

This is a deep misconception: a child has to learn certain things by a certain age. For example, if one has not learned to speak and understand by the age of 5, there is no way to fix that.

San Sanych, my son works as a deputy technical director at a production company, and among other things he is in charge of recruiting equipment adjusters. The pay is not bad at the present time; one needs basic knowledge of electrical engineering, and the ability to communicate with the computer, of course.
A recent visitor complained about how difficult it was to find an adjuster, some retards come after colleges.
