It’s kind of interesting how in most (not all) ‘big’ companies, the higher you move up the corporate ladder, less focus is on technical knowledge and instead more focus is on organizational behaviour. Ideally, a good leader would be 50/50 in both. A study would be nice here tbh

I’m convinced there is a monster at the back of my closet that takes all my clothes

Yesterday I was writing a midterm and I had to draw a graph. So naturally I drew a vertical line (that wasn’t very straight) and then continued to hold my pencil thinking it would magically straighten out…

Behold, the impact of iPads and online note taking lol

IMO, in most people the ability to sit down and learn *usually* comes out of a need rather than a desire. If it’s not a need, people become bored, lazy, not-focused.

What sets the innovators apart from the rest is their ability to learn solely as a result of a desire.

Not really sure how some places get this wrong. The secret to a good work environment is not in some generic book written by some random person. My current workplace is good at appreciating their employees, and as a result I feel everyone there is really dedicated to the company

[parth @parthdsi]

The *secret* to a successful work environment is simply appreciating your employee. You don’t need your CEO to name drop your Interns but I mean just from a Manager to their Employee and vice versa. This isn’t really a secret. This can be applied anywhere. If you want the most…

[parth @parthdsi]

Out of anyone, just make them feel welcomed, appreciate their impact no matter how big or small, and they will naturally want to do anything they can to make positive impact. This isn’t some power trick, it’s just courtesy.

@KrishRShah Looool there’s a book for this…

@wetarynitup Kind of off topic but might be cool regarding aging, when your cells split, your telomeres get shorter until they can’t get shorter and then your cells can’t split anymore. Theoretically if you could stop your telomeres from shortening you could stop aging. Maybe that’s the cure?

However, new tech companies are changing this- you’re definitely closer to a 50/50 than an 80/20 in tech. This is likely because the CEO’s are the same people who worked it from ground up, but interested to see if that goes to 80/20 after the management inevitably change

@MaqmoodAli I think the medical field, specifically surgeries still have a long way to go

[parth @parthdsi]

My ‘unpopular opinion’ is that your brain and consciousness are two separate entities. Your consciousness existing is at the mercy and will of your brain. I also feel in some situations ‘letting my brain take over’ and being subconscious might be better. Thoughts?

[parth @parthdsi]

I mean not necessary as a result o recent advancements in technology, chatGPT to name the first that comes to mind. *also constant topic change is unfortunately how my brain works, so thanks for bearing with me* 6/6

So I’m roughly 50 days into learning Spanish on Duolingo. After 50 days of guided learning, I can only really make very basic conversations (tbf this depends on how many lessons you do a day). This made me wonder if first settlers didn’t have guided learning… 1/6

[parth @parthdsi]

But then how can we mimic that ‘need to learn’ so people apply themselves in an everyday setting? Or is school past the 9th grade (or whenever you learn multiplication/division, general science, etc) not necessary entirely…? 5/6
