- travelling is overrated
- learning foreign languages is overrated unless you're learning English or the language of a country you want to live in
- stainless steel pans are better than cast iron pans
- machine learning is boring
- going too hard on FIRE is a mistake for most people
- software engineer is a cool job title and it's pointless to gatekeep it just because it contains the word engineer. Same with data scientist - don't get caught up on the word scientit, it's data scientist, the qualifier matters.
It's surprisingly difficult to come up with these.
- giantg2 4y ago"going too hard on FIRE" There's no such thing
- FeistySkink 4y agoI'm curious about the steel pans. Can you expand?
- Comevius 4y agoTourist traps are overrated, not traveling. Learning languages makes you wiser and more valuable. Cast iron lasts a long time, and it is better for searing meat because of it's heat retention. Machine learning has a lot of potential, including predicting climate change, changing the way we create everything from media to drugs, changing wars and so on, it's the opposite of boring. Software is just as much engineered as a bridge is, and software engineers should aspire to be responsible, especially because software tend to be used by more people than a bridge.
- effingwewt 4y agoIt's a very personal question, and thus there can be no wrong answer other than a lie. Even that would have to be taken at face value. To OP those things are what they said- the fact you see them differently is fine, but irrelevant. Do you have a lowest hill to die on? I've been mulling it over, but can't come up with anything. I'm quite sure I've got some pretty nonsensical ones.
