rpietila, we can't give away knowledge. I have tried to give away my knowledge and I can't even force it down the readers' throats. Knowledge is impossible to bottle up and distribute. Knowledge is dynamic, diverse, spawns from fitness as motivated by the diverse situations that humans encounter.
Did you just claim that all schools, universities, and technical books have zero effect on teaching people?
If you can't teach someone something you are supposed to know, it's not usually his fault, it's yours; for lacking the ability to actually
KNOW the subject good enough. I've been into education for long enough to know exactly what having a good teacher is.
I once met a great physicist; he was teaching classic physics on the 2nd year of the university. When he entered the amphitheater and started talking, it was like pure water running down the fall. I wanted to ask something somewhere in the middle; he pointed at me and (without stopping his speech) he signed me to wait... after 3-4 mins he answered to my question (WITHOUT listening to it!)
Pity we don't have those kind of teachers around all the time... The world would be smarter (and more people would have been into Bitcoin)!!!
