"Study" is also a pretty vague word, that could describe a lot of different activities. Lots of people study hard, buy how many follows the exact same process as Feynman ?
Not every studying techniques are equally effective, the same is true for problem solving techniques.
Not to say his genetics didn't have _any_ impact, but we don't know the extent of the impact it had
Tropes are nothing more than patterns we can observe in multiple stories. Clichés are tropes used extremely frequently. There's nothing inherently wrong about either of those things, it's only the way they're being used, the execution, that can be good or bad.
The James Bond one manages to add a touch of comedy, gives more information to the viewer about the characters who the characters are and how well they know each other, and makes the viewer remain attentive in what would otherwise be a fairly boring exposition scene.
It has become used over and over again in various precisely because of how effective it is.
How does profiting from something valuable you created somehow makes you a greedy scumbag ?
Besides, you're not addressing the main point : Someone is going to "steal" most of his hard labor, and will profit from it.
Turning a movie after 10 minutes is fairly uncommon though. People usually commit to watching the whole thing once they've picked a movie, even if they end up playing on their phones. Not saying that it does not happen, just that it's fairly rare.
I've used YouTube daily for years and always found it quite useful to see dislike bar, because it's rare to see more than 10% dislikes on a video, so whenever that happens, you know that something's wrong.
I've gotta ask : How do you read these quickly ? It'd take me so much time to read even half of the articles from threads I'm somewhat interested in, I can't help but feel that trying to get the gist of it by reading the comments is the most efficient way for me. Well, it would've been, if the people commenting actually read the article.
The reason why they are so popular is because school/textbook leaves the opposite impression to most people, i.e. we're given tools without the "gist".
I'd been in a prep school for 3 years, and people were just regurgitating what they had been shown, applying formulas with a very vague idea of what they're doing or what their results means.
School is just about remembering things and finding patterns.
People usually don't particularly care for the truth, they care for what they think is the truth, and what support their opinions.
As for suggestions : It's pretty vague, but how about doing projects in things that you're interested in ? Like maybe creating a prototype for an energy drink, buy a lot of different ingredients to find new recipes, or buy tools for drawing and create a comic...
Or read up on a problem your city has, and work on it.
Well, real estate has always been one of the best ways to invest money. But the problem is that there's much more demand than there are supply in some places. If a lot of people wish to live in a specific place, then the price will go up, and vice versa. You could buy several houses in small cities for the price of only one house in Paris, for example.
I also tend to overanalyze things, but books like "Atomic Habits" and "The Slight Edge" were really helpful. It made realize that there's no point to try to properly define what a task is, as what I can do at any given day depends on my physical and mental state.
How I perform when I have a bad day is completely different from my performance on a good day. Something that's a task today might not be considered like one tomorrow.
There'll be days where I'll only do 25 small things then call it a day, and that's okay.
I just downloaded one of the first apps that I found on the Google Play Store when I searched for "incrementor". I think any app where a number goes up when you press a button will do the trick.
I had a similar issue, and I found a solution : Rather than aiming to follow my plan, I aim to do a predetermined amount of tasks (25 in my cases), regardless of whether or not they are in my schedule. I use an app to keep track of the amount of tasks done, and it has been surprisingly effective!
Why not work with other companies that are everywhere and have toilets ? (e.g.: Fast-foods).
Of course, it will cost money, but that's better than nothing.
Mein Kampf isn't a children book though. In addition to the be fact that the books are annotated, those who are going to read it will be of enough to get the context surrounding this book
Not op, but what difference between men and women would justify such a gap, if not a cultural one ?
We can't know for sure what's the right split, But I'd argue it's as unlikely to be 50/50 than it is to be close to 100/0 in fields where women aren't at a physical disavantage.
