My dayjob is as psychologist. No joke.

And my specialty is spotting morons on social media.

Well I certainly hope your patients can find the help they need. But let’s drop the hominems and get to the point:

Do you have a real counter example? Someone that through reading the material of others alone, with no practical/“hands on” experience, was able to develop what you consider “deep” knowledge?

Edit: A day ago you were arguing talent can’t come without training. https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=39656444

In fact much of your comment history is dedicated to claiming knowledge requires product. How bizzare.

Your comment is a great example of someone putting their (mis-)interpretation into something.

No, I didn't say anything about products. I leave that for tinkerers and sales people.

> Do you have a real counter example?

Already gave you one, no idea why you're asking again.

Reread why I said your example was bogus, I don’t have time to repeat myself.

I didn't read it the first time and I'm not going to read it a second time. I don't have time for you.

Ha, I had thought you were an LLM prompted to be a contrarian with a chip on their shoulder. This all but confirms it^. I bet you don’t even have the prior messages in your context window.

^Or at least something with approximately that level of intellectual capacity/honesty.
