@hehehe52318711 @KutarkV @k1rallik He never said it was groundbreaking. It goes well beyond solving this one problem. It is the implications of what the future holds which are a game changer. Building blocks.

A HARVARD psychologist says: “if you’ve achieved nothing by 25, you’ve avoided the most destructive illusion of youth”

> In 2021, a Harvard psychologist surprised a lecture hall with an unexpected statement:

“If you haven’t accomplished much by 25, you may have escaped one of youth’s biggest illusions.”

At first, the room laughed.
She wasn’t kidding.

> The illusion of early success.

In your early 20s, the brain seeks quick proof of worth ~status, attention, rapid achievements.

But psychologists warn that chasing recognition too soon can lock people into roles or paths they never consciously chose.

They decide too early… and spend years trying to undo it.

> The exploration phase.

Research on career development suggests that people who explore more before 30 often build stronger long-term directions.

Testing ideas.
Making mistakes in public.
Changing course.

At 25 it looks like confusion ….but by 35 it often turns into clarity.

People who feel “behind” in their mid-20s frequently gain something others miss:

Perspective.
Patience.
And a clearer sense of what truly matters to them.

That foundation often leads to better decisions later on.

At the end of the lecture, the psychologist left the students with one final thought:

“You’re not meant to have life fully figured out at 25.”

“You’re meant to discover who you’re not.”

@NoelZone @OscarMikeFGC You think they lack half a brain when they're likely smarter than you. Oh wait youre a "proud white man" against migrants, yeah it's clear who doesn't have half a brain.

@miggymaru @Grummz They had a banger once upon a time, and it was called Unreal Tournament. But they abandoned it and betrayed the community. The same community that put them on the map as a company. karma will find its way if they don't change.

@realNumberSets @blortzen I told Steve Polge to make UT4 popular, they need a new game type to hook people. They then went and did it for Fortnite and the rest is history.

[Nick @abysm]

@Rocky38R @TimSweeneyEpic He has been for years. Look at what happened to UT 4.
