What a schmuck!
Yes but the sure can recite the proper stances on LGBT issues and abortion. They know America is the worst nation on Earth. They know that diversity is better than national safety, the lives of our citizens, or women being free from rape squads. They know that climate change is real, and we’re all gonna die because of the last generation.
I wonder who we have to blame for all this? The internet?
LMAO
How about our K-12th grade education system, our turncoat media, and the liars on the Left?
These kids have been taught only to the education level the Left wants them at, about the fifth grade when it comes to literacy.
Go whine to someone else professor.
Basically the same fundamental lack of independent thinking ability demonstrated by the average red-dot Indian technologist.
So I wonder about this article. I spent 30 years in tech, designed integrated circuits. In my high school class of 700 there was maybe one or two other people who could have done the same thing. These days all you hear about is STEM, STEM, but for most people it’s not ever going to happen.
The other part is that we are no longer only accepting the cream of the crop. We now accept everyone, and try to turn every 95 IQ mouth breather into a surgeon or an engineer. Those kids were around in the 50s, too, but they weren't going to college.
They produce brain dead morons who vote Democrat when they bother to vote at all.
Bfl
Ping.
I recalled an incident from my junior year, when a couple of friends hunted me down to relate that they’d encountered my dad in the hall, between classes. They thought they’d get in a dig, and told him that their new English classes were a lot tougher than his had been. He looked at them, and said “Tough shit, gentlemen.” They seemed to think that I needed to know this.
Minds destroyed by irrational, mindless making bad decisions.
bkmk
Thank the Lord that my kids in their late 20s and early 30s aren’t like that.
The story goes that Thamus said much to Theuth, both for and against each art, which it would take too long to repeat. But when they came to writing, Theuth said: “O King, here is something that, once learned, will make the Egyptians wiser and will improve their memory; I have discovered a potion for memory and for wisdom.” Thamus, however, replied: “O most expert Theuth, one man can give birth to the elements of an art, but only another can judge how they can benefit or harm those who will use them. And now, since you are the father of writing, your affection for it has made you describe its effects as the opposite of what they really are. In fact, it will introduce forgetfulness into the soul of those who learn it: they will not practice using their memory because they will put their trust in writing, which is external and depends on signs that belong to others, instead of trying to remember from the inside, completely on their own. You have not discovered a potion for remembering, but for reminding; you provide your students with the appearance of wisdom, not with its reality. Your invention will enable them to hear many things without being properly taught, and they will imagine that they have come to know much while for the most part they will know nothing. And they will be difficult to get along with, since they will merely appear to be wise instead of really being so.”Plato. c.399-347 BC. “Phaedrus.”
Baloney.
Sure, they know how to Instagram and Snapchat, but that's the extent of it. Yes, they understand how to play games, but couldn't begin to tell you how Siri works.
I don't think they have any clue as to how technology works, only how to barely use some of it.
