This is why I hate social media, Dame said careful what they wish for so, now we’re going to be submitted to a month of, “Dame wants to leave”, and “Dame wants to be a Laker”....

This has happened well before social media existed.
 
When you are one with the truth, this type of click bait will not affect you.

We are literally moving into the movie idiocracy.
Oh and new study came out. The average IQ has dropped 7 pts....

I understand that, but social media has made it so easy to say something ambiguous have it put out there every where and then the regular media has a field day with it. It’s scary to me how quickly something gets out on Twitter or Facebook and all of a sudden it becomes truth, or news. I’m not really trying to go down the “fake news” route. Just saying I think social media has made it easier for something like this to become a story.

It’s very, very interesting to me. We have so much information, more than ever in the history of the earth, but our brains are required to work less and less because of that. So while I’d argue that almost all of know more than any of our ancestors ever did, we have very steadily lost the ability to really think, and problem solve. Most of us are very good at regurgitating information, but have quite the predicament figuring things out on our own.

I work with engineers, and researchers from MIT, and some very smart people but I even see the same thing amongst us. The older group is so much better at figuring out tough problems, and the younger guys like me well We’re much better at just doing math in our heads, or redesigning things, rather than starting from scratch. I find it fascinating, we have An interesting group of different world views from liberal to conservatives, to extremely religious, to atheist and while I like to think most of us are pretty smart, it’s always interesting to me how the older guys can get together and knock out problems so fast. Part of that really could just be experience, but I think part of it is that they are just much better st talking through issues than we are.
