      they sure didn't like it when we were 11, but "you can't make me" was always the right answer "you'll inevitably give up" and "never give up!" are memes applied reflexively & almost arbitrarily to prevent an internal locus of discernment from developing properlyhttps://twitter.com/visakanv/status/1256130824262438913 …

      when I started researching child ed, one of the first things to strike me was how much of children's time we wasted soon after came the distressing realization that a lot of people find this functional, discipline defined as an unconditional willingness to do nonsense work

      it took me longer to realize why I found this so viscerally *creepy* people like @visakanv @auderdy @pmarca @micsolana @HeatherEHeying & many others led me to the conclusion that "taste" is a real + important thing, a kind of intuitive discernment that's trained over a lifetime

      the "taste" I'm referring to is the thing that tells you that your circumstances aren't working and how you want them to be different this leads to all kinds of people, from maker-hermits to eccentric rainbow-clad extroverts to techies who become obsessed with making holograms

      it's a bit like the daemons in His Dark Materials; you can certainly struggle to get along with someone whose taste is very different from yours, but the real battle is to protect all taste

      taste admittedly introduces a lot of risk at the individual level and a degree of instability at the population level: progress of any kind is necessarily destabilizing, moreso when people disagree about what it ought to look like

      when you are trained very young to allow your superiors to waste your time, you are learning that your taste isn't functional; it's a hunger that will only pain you or make you do bad things other people will tell you what matters and what needs to be done

      children hear "that won't work" and "never give up!" all the time,* and unless they realize that these are deployed as needed to counter the internal sense that you should try something that seems fun or stop doing something that you're not enjoying, it only generates confusion

      busywork + "self-discipline" as often used (though less applicable in certain ambitious circles), cancel culture, tall poppy syndrome, the idea of fundamental human fungibility (see linked tweet) — all weapons against tastehttps://twitter.com/webdevmason/status/1219839383676710912?s=21 …

      We're going to keep seeing more of this. It's important to notice that the larger theme is that ideas are inevitable, and for that reason, human beings are fungible. No individual — or their big idea — really matters very much. This is a monstrous lie. https://twitter.com/danprimack/status/1219696854658666497 …

          Great thread and response to yet another silly attack on capitalism by yet another clueless journalist. Perhaps worse yet, kids learn to regard busywork as genuine work. Then they go out into life and generate more and more bureaucratic nonsense everywhere they go.

          this is a good thread. when i took myself out of school, i did it because i hated what i was made to do, and loved doing my own things instead. somehow i was made to feel a failure for this. i’m now so grateful for it

          Love it. I wrote down some of my “taste” ideas (flawed, framed for UX explanations). Interestingness/fun, daemons as gifts, problem space diving, know it when you feel it » taste aka libraries of intuition.
