like the mechanics, map awareness, perfect execution at every step. all these things would have been extremely impressive if video games were something boring but because the average dude will game for 20k hours these skills feel super uncool even if they're objectively hard

becoming top 5% league of legends player requires much more skill and intelligence than 95% of engineering jobs video games are super constrained immediate feedback loops, removing all need for passion the world is passion constrained, not intelligence constrained
gabriel@gabriel1

this took so long for me to understand: the bottleneck to more innovation is not more high intelligence people, but more people having an interest in hard problems it's impossible to create new useful things if you don't get immense happiness from making that thing

@willdepue same. it also kinda sucks that haters kinda accumulate just like fans as your account reach a threshhold. a few misses and you'll get people who only feed on negative energy spewing shit on every post i think longform is the only way, but i hate not posting in the moment

in addition to: 1. not needing immediate feedback loop for every action 2. acting in an unconstrained space without clear rules, and without having to pick your next action from a set list of actions

if you are diamond at league of legends the only thing stopping you from building a billion dollar company is finding a problem you are so excited by that you never think about anything else

there is like a thousand paths you can take in life, and 100% people compete on the same path. competition is truly for losers, just ignore the decision tree laid up in front of you when you are born and just do things. there's no one there to compete

there are zero smart people, the bar is incredibly low, just think harder about things and update faster than others understand every primitive of things and people, the world not very complex, people are highly predictable, and competition does not exist if you think

education rot my brain because it forces a worldview where you think there are superhumans that came up with every solution. at every problem you look for other peoples solutions stop thinking you need other peoples thoughts. experience more things and think harder

of course some reading can be positive, but the downside of thinking there is some secret piece of knowledge holding you back is success suicide

nothing will hold back ambitious teens more than thinking there is some hidden knowledge in books or other peoples thoughts NEVER get stuck thinking your success depends on anything but your actions. fuck books fuck podcasts, just do things and think hard about it

@teles_dev yes but intelligence required is the same. the reason ppl have league skills is because it's easy to become passionate because immediate feedback loops in a constrained environment

@gabriel1 Genuine question, why would one want this? What did you have on the bottom screen? It seems too small to have anything you're working on on it, so did you just have it for notifications / as a status bar (email, whatsapp, slack, etc.)?

I think everyone inherently wants hard problems to solve. I think people just don't know what problems they think they should devote their life (and time) towards. Lots of the time, you won't get immense happiness while making the thing. It will actually bring about lots of suffering. But that suffering will bring about a greater joy once you accomplish your end goal. So it's about the end result imo. And the key there is a philosophical "problem" of people not understanding why they're working on anything.

like when you force a bunch of people in school to learn math, they don't actually learn math they learn the numbers that point to the math concepts, but they don't know the concepts exist and think memorizing the numbers is all there is

there is probably 100 more elons in the world, the problem is not having more of them but getting them excited in a problem the most common blockers of this is authoritarian governments, cultures of pessimism, and other types of cultural problems
