I just realized while cooking that a measuring-cup cup (as measured out as 250mL in a glass measuring cup) is the same amount(s) as one of the actual plastic baking measuring cups that go inside each other like Russian dolls lol
I thought they were different somehow (something something imperial metric yadda yadda yaddda)
Your turn to come clean Lemmings!
**EDIT: to clarify, I mean volumetrically for measuring liquids
That social skill and practical skills are far more valuable than theory.
Unless you’re really, really good at theory. See Von Neumann, Murray Gell-Mann, John Nash, and many others. It really goes for anyone who’s talented significantly above their peers in tech, the arts, sports…
The problem is that it scales with talent, so someone who’s modestly brilliant will get less leeway than a Nobel (or EGOT) level talent, and talent seems to scale non-linearly.
Exactly so, and I am below average Joe.
Wait, you are saying that’s something you believed but learned was wrong. You now believe that theory is more valuable than social & practical skills? Or the other way round?
I used to believe that knowledge was the most valuable. I now know it isn’t and that other stuff such as social skills are much more important.
Ah, that makes more sense. I think the way op’s question is worded makes reading a lot of the answers here confusing.
