The whole point of the two categories is to be able to break down problems into actionable behaviors.
You won't be able to solve world hunger by yourself. But you can help by donating a meal today.
You won't be able to solve obscure webpack problems by yourself. But you can report an issue with a reproduction to the maintainers today.
It's all about perspective. If it doesn't help you, that's okay. Maybe it will help someone else like it helped me throughout my career.
- giraffe_lady 5y agoI'm genuinely glad you've found it helpful! I'm not trying to mess with that. I just, as a problem solving tool, have never found any use for it. For me it falls into the same category as expressions like "it is what it is" or "we'll cross that bridge when we come to it." These sayings point at important truths that should be considered frequently. But they are worthless for solving any specific problem.
