@Spaded_Peacock One can technically observe it. Though I am impressed that you said magma instead of lava, which means we are speaking about the more liquidy of the two.
Regardless, magma being melted rock is still too thick to be a soup.
If you saw my recent post I spoke about the concept of inventing for the sake of inventing, this is a slightly different case. But it still focuses on the concept of inventing without thinking about the longterm consequences. I could talk about this for quite some time.

@Spaded_Peacock [Instead he took out a notebook and started on some work, nothing fancy just some sketches for machines he likely won't built. Not leaving the other alone, but not asking anything else of him. He could only hope that for now it would be enough]
@Spaded_Peacock [The sudden vulnerability shocked Ratio, something he quickly hid so not to ruin the moment. Instead he smiled slightly with a nod. He worried that anything he said could fracture this fragile trust. His companion did not seem thrilled at the idea of conversation]

Why learn when you are cursed with unintelligence? But when they do such things they still subject the world to their ignorance. The ignorance they happily accept.
You know, one thing the average idiot enjoys doing is pretending knowledge is unreachable. The self loathing idiot may belittle themselves as a way to compliment someone. "Oh I just can't keep up with those numbers" they say "I'm so stupid compared to you" they claim

Sure, just like learning a language intelligence is best if you start young, but like languages much of it can still be learned with practice.
I belive that far too many people accept intelligence as inate because it gives them the excuse to not think.
