    My 'dumb' router is never going to decide my fridge needs to route through china to send my grocery list to my phone. He complains about the slowness of lookup tables but somehow AI is going to tax routers less?

    Is this why he's a professor teaching networking and not a network engineer?

    Easy, just visualize it as an area. If you play with numbers enough you realize there are certain properties that can be exploited to get answers quickly to math problems that are intuitive.

    Here's a hint. The usa does not have a good education system. They don't teach you how to learn because they don't understand learning. Memorization is always a symptom of not understanding the why of anything. Another hint, other cultures have developed answers to life that are better than what the west has come up with.

    Those aren't real people. That's just god messing with you because he knows it annoys you!

    What's saddest is that "we're completely fucking incompetent" is not just the excuse they went with, but that it actually works.

    Not sure if you've noticed, but that's been the US governments MO for decades for hiding their true purposes.

    Did you know there are some humans that have more vertebraes than others? Why, tv signal is supposed to be fine for the average human, do you know there's humans that perceive flickering well above 100hz?

    Nothing wrong with sterile manure. Now, if you were using non-sterlized fecal matter from humans fed a western diet, that might actually be worse, but nobody does that. Westerners have turned their bodies into toxic waste dumps so they keep trying to cover the smell with more toxic products!

    Growing food covered in biohazardous poison doesn't exactly conjure up images of healthy and nutritious.

    You obviously don't play a musical instrument with any competence!

    No matter how constrained you are by a piece of music, you can still be creative in the style that you wring notes out of your instrument.

    In fact, the more constrained you are the greater the gift of creativity needed to do anything useful with whatever leeway given!

    They learn techniques, not creativity. How you rearrange the bits you're given, regardless of field, is creativity.

    Slowdown Cowboy, you're showing your psychosis.

    Perhaps what you're missing from your story, is that perhaps your son was given an opportunity to learn an important human truth at an early age that is more important than book smarts, one which you still fail to grasp.

    Creativity can be taught. It's just exploring possibilities after all. To a certain extent, at intro and medium levels, 'artistic' expression is largely just the working out of possibilities in reality because the person lacks a sufficient visualization system.

    Something tells me our systems are a little more capable of dealing with biodegradable skin cells than burnt plastic byproducts.
