This is the ONLY type of thinking there is. Ergo, you can 'think faster' for any given discipline with practice.
- bluefirebrand 6y ago> You've abandoned "thinking is a process of considering options and reaching a conclusion" now This is a big claim to make without any explanation of why you think that. I'm forced to conclude you're not discussing in good faith. Bye.
- sombremesa 6y agoIf the process of considering options and reaching the correct conclusion concludes faster and that is our definition of thinking, it should follow that the thinking is faster. Somewhere in your last comment you must've pivoted your definition, because you described it rather as thinking 'less' and saying that it is NOT the same thing as thinking faster. That's perfectly fine, of course, but it left me confused as to what definition you were now using. It's a shame you've decided to abandon the argument.

That doesn't follow because once you've mastered something you consider less options to reach a conclusion than a novice. One reaches the correct conclusion whit less thinking, not faster thinking. Following your logic a person taking a shortcut from point A to point B is doing the same amount of driving as somebody not taking the shortcut, they are just driving faster.
