"Paradoxically, this means that if you want to avoid stupidities, the way to do so is to become even more stupid. It’s only by repeatedly trying stupid things that you can learn where stupidities lie and how to spot them. Being stupid as a reflex is the best way to hone your “wait, this is stupid” detector and gives you a sixth sense about how to spot those buried landmines of stupidities." Sorry but that's stupid, and I don't just mean "anti-smart". This guy seems to have a fixation on stupidity. Ok, you need to fail a lot before you can win and things like that, but let's not go overboard with it.
