Because somehow education includes gender and social studies.
Imagine if they got educated in something useful instead. We need better batteries, so you’d think people would want to educate themselves about the research of batteries?
Or literally any other STEM-field that might bring something useful and practical out of it.
We don’t need better batteries. We need a radical reform of our approach to public transportation, but your daddy Elon sabotaged railways with his Hyperloop vaporware and remote working with his yuppie-like 80-hours-a-week-in-the-office policy.
Is that some reference to my nick? I had this nick since before Tesla Motors existed, because i like scientists. If you can surgically remove yourself from your own ass you might understand which scientist it refers to.
Who said I have anything against public transportation? I’m from Sweden. We have it covered for now, but we need serious investment in our infrastructure, especially for maintaining our railways.
I don’t care for Musk in the slightest, he has shown that he is a tool of the highest caliber. I just know that when the waters start to rise, i’d rather have another welder, engineer, plumber rather than an English major or gender consultant.
All those categories aren’t going to help people communicate properly, better or deal with the glass ceiling in companies, all things that contribute to well-being and happiness.
I’m a technical translator specialized in automotive texts.
So, I’m bridging the gap between STEM and the humanities, you’re one of those tools who doesn’t see any value in the humanities.
🤓 I’m a real man and I love science and real men think about gender all the time. It’s scientifically proven that people are only worth what you can do for me. 🤓
Hardly. I’m just unable to sympathize with the people who complain about “luxury-issues” just because they take our current infrastructure for granted.
Understanding peoples behaviors makes for better team cooperation. Humans are social creatures, our strength is not individual inteligence but the collective intelligence.
I’m refering to the endless number of people, articles and videos saying that college educated people cant even get an interview for a job, let alone a steady employment due to their CHOICE of education.
My first and very reasonable question barely gets answered is: “Well, what did they study?”
Turns out, mostly un-employable things like archeology, English/french literature, gender studies, communicator etc.
That being said, i certainly don’t feel that the more easily employable degrees necessarily bring any value to their communities. I dont know about the US, but in Sweden the most popular degree for youths today are economist. Simply because that’s the only way they feel that they will be able to earn enough money to not work anymore. Whilst i empathize with them, it doesn’t really bode well for the future if the educated people overwhelmingly work to enrich themselves.
Wow your message was delivered poorly, but there is a core concept hidden within it that I do agree with. Schools need to focus more on critical thinking skills rather than any particular topic. Because those can be applied to anything.
Ever since standardized testing rolled around school has become more about teaching kids to memorize something and to not try if they don’t know and just move on rather than allowing them to get something wrong but engage in critical thinking.
Instead of memorizing random formulas in math class that you may or may not use in your daily life especially now that it’s literally guaranteed that there’s 15 calculators within 5 ft of you at all times including one in your pocket. It would be more useful to teach specific types of math that encourage critical thinking like say ROI calculations, something that literally everyone can and should be using in their daily lives for even just basic shopping but virtually nobody knows what that even means.
No that’s what I turned it into, the core part that I agreed with was that how we educate needs to change. I then took that and moved it to my concept on critical thinking skills being the most important thing

Nice projection there. I hope you losers enjoy Trump, cause you deserve the stupidity of him.
Found the uneducated!

Then you have psychology or psychiatry and their various sub-specializations.
Psychology would be great to understand individual behaviors.
Yes? I’m not sure i understand your point.

That’s what you got out of his comment? It seemed to be that he was promoting a job training curriculum rather than education.
