I frequently find myself wanting to think more critically and guess about things like this. If I had thought a bit further before reading (one needle, but what is the groove like?) I would gotten to assuming that it was one dimensional, but then stepped from there to it actually affording two dimensions.
Does anyone have recommendations for reading or exercises to improve this kind of thinking?
- IIAOPSW 4y agoWhen I was a kid I used to wonder how everything worked and would disassemble things to find out. Started to take apart those disposable cameras people used to use for vacation photos. Learned the painful way what a capacitor is and how it discharges enough electricity to make that camera flash in a hurry. So my recommendation is electro-shock therapy. Self administered of course.
- incanus77 4y agoHa, excellent. I have pretty good mechanical sense & experience and can reason through how things work. I guess I just want to get better? But this applies to thinking that gets you into a rut working on a bug. Sometimes es I find that if I would have stopped, backed up, and thought through the whole stack more critically, I would have gotten the fix faster.
