There's a lot of small things like that that I think are important and a lot of good educators will do.

Like, how would you solve this?

Like, I'm not going to present a solution before you're going to guess.

That would be wasteful.

That's a little bit of a...

I don't want to swear, but, like, it's a dick move towards you to present you with the solution before I give you a shot to try to come up with it yourself.

Yeah.

Well, you have a chance to try yourself, and you have an appreciation when I give you the solution.

And it maximizes the amount of knowledge per new fact added.

That's right, yeah.

well as the curse of knowledge and expertise yeah this is a real phenomenon and i actually suffered from it myself as much as i try to not not suffer from it but you take certain things for granted and you can't put yourself in the shoes of new of people who are just starting out and this is pervasive it happens to me as well one thing that i actually think is extremely helpful as an example someone was trying to show me a paper in biology recently and i just had instantly so many terrible questions so what i did was i used chat gpt to ask the questions with the with the paper in the context window

And then it worked through some of the simple things.

And then I actually shared the thread to the person who shared it, who actually like wrote that paper or like worked on that work.

And I almost feel like it was like, like if they can see the dumb questions I had, it might help them explain better in the future or something like that.

Because, so for example, for my material, I would love if people shared their dumb conversations with Chachi PT about the stuff that I've created, because it really helps me put myself again in the shoes of someone who's starting out.

To say the thing.

Yeah.

Actually, I saw that tweet.

I thought it was really good.

I shared it with a bunch of people, actually.
