I feel that so much. I'm a first generation vietnamese american (born and raised in america) and it's very disappointing to see my own family lash out (at each other or even strangers) when there is some issue where the answer is unknown.
It's also very frustrating when there's such a strong emphasis on the idea that elders always know best and anybody younger cannot question them.
Discipline, wisdom, and maturity are probably the main aspects that I think define how "adult" somebody is.
Based on current trends, I don't think people care about knowing how all the parts work (even before these powerful LLMs came along) as long as the job gets done and things get shipped and it mostly works.
started committing to healthier habits like going to the gym and jogging.
got some programming work experience under my belt.
started to cook for myself.
learned how to use a multimeter and fixed my house heating.
went to GDC and explored san francisco.
also finishing advent of code is always a highlight in my book :)
That wasted a lot of time which is a lesson to be learned from.
I also struggled with self management.
I think there are huge benefits when you put together a team of people that usually don't have distractions like kids, intimate relationships, health problems etc that can hinder productivity.
Even more beneficial to a team when you combine the wisdom and experience of older folks with the passion and energy of the youth.
Then I have to go back and review.
Repeat.
