Listen bitch, explaining something in a few words as possible , distilling the message down, to its purest form is indeed a skill which walks hand in hand with understanding of the subject matter.
Does that somehow render longer form media as useless ? of course not.
They are two different things.
My point was, that JJ often, cannot distil his gibberish down into a succinct format, and that is somewhat to do with his love of his own ranting, but also, because he struggles to condense information down into a agreeable format, and thus he loses much of his audience through exhaustion or confusion.... or irritation, and no that is not because people have short attention spans, it is because rambling bullshit using 5000 words where 50 would have done, is fucking annoying, and shows a lack of understanding, and respect, of the subject matter, and the audience.
Comparing Nietzsche to JJ , is fucking retarded.
That is very well said. Short and Understandable like it is talked about in the very post.
Nah.
Let's assume i'm an expert in growing weed.
Boiling it down, i'd tell somebody: "You give the plant a controlled environment to deliver the best result when consumed".
The thing is, any IDIOT can say that. Now where's the connection to knowing the matter in and out?
Right - there is none.
You can't conclude from A to B in that case.
Knowing the matter would make somebody able to explain in the very finest of detail AND also cut it short. Both of it.
So Einstein's statement has a hidden context, which is known to him, but not to the reader.
I never said condense it down to 5 words.
No need to go to a case of reductio ad absurdum....
I said 50 words instead of 5000, if 50 will suffice.
Obviously in JJ's case, he uses 5000 words where 50 would do.
In the case of the art of growing the weed, more words would be warranted to get across the meaning.
It is about efficiency of language, efficiency of words, to convey a point or message... not about reducing the words per se.
Come on, you are not trying to even straight face tell me JJ is succinct in any way ? and that perhaps , with some editing, he could actually be more efficient and consistent in the message he tries to convey?
Be fair
