Popular Post sdolezalek Posted December 10, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted December 10, 2019 Computers and the Internet: They were supposed to give us access to unlimited learning and knowledge. Those, in turn, were supposed to resolve disputes about facts and knowledge and leave us with little uncertainty. Instead, the exact opposite has happened. The volume of available information has far surpassed our feeble brains abilities to distill it to useful/reliable knowledge. The resulting confusion, not clarity, has led us to retreat to tribal systems of belief, where we turn to reinforcement from members of our tribe to give us comfort that our belief is the correct one. These days it is hard to find any area in which there is a true consensus, never mind universal agreement. Instead, we have vehement disagreement about almost everything, with the very uncertainty that led us to a tribal view emotionally leading us to defend that view with even more force than if it were one we safely had in hand. My only safe solution: Sit back and listen to the music...
