      Well as a 12 year old I think they are lacking, Well the reason for that is because tradonitional schools just like hire whoever they see and it's pretty much it very easy to be a teacher school in traditional schools. You just need to go to a easy college or university and learn. But in Elon's school there are teachers who are more talented than traditional school teachers and traditional schools lack being clean and stuff.

      Break it down into easy to digest segments or real life examples, there you go you have taught the basics. But, idk to 6 year old haha, maybe 8-10. I was taught archimedes principle and showed it at a science fair in elementary school. Obviously my friends dad and mine were engineers (lmao) but we still got the fundamental basics down. They provided the specifics and the equations, but we built out a little model that had a tub of precaculated water/volume, tupperware with steel shot as weight, which would displace given water as a result and referenced/checked by hashmarks or a ruler on side of the tub to validate the equation was working. What I’m trying to say, I understood the principle at hand and it was very cool to learn about.

    The cool thing about *First principles* and *Critical Thinking* is that these skills are not limited to Engineering and "space science". These are simply very important tools/skills to develop as kids which can translate to every aspect of their lives.
    Basically, it's *"Learning HOW to think"* VS *"Learning WHAT to think."*
    I think schools today seem to be much more oriented towards the second option, unfortunately.

When I asked him where he learned that, he said he made it up. But he is failing in school, his teachers have him in a bunch of classes to help him catch up with his classmates and he tells me all the time he feels stupid, but he isn't stupid, and I fucking hate him having to go somewhere that makes him feel like this.

    The more I learn about Elon, the more I think he is one of the most important people of our lifetime. I had no idea about his school or even that there was a thing called first principals, but I get it and have tried to drill the same concept in the heads of all the kids I'm around including my own. My grandfather taught me to never stop asking questions but he passed away before I was old enough to really learn anything about all the stuff he fixed or built. Even though he passed early he gave me the ability to know how to figure stuff out on my own and to break down complex systems to their basic individual functions. There's nothing I can't fix and most puzzles that would leave people stumped for days are a simple task for me. Thank you Grandpa, you continued to beneficially impact my life for years after you were gone and I can't be more grateful.

      Not trying to make this political, but it's relevant. I think both sides are willfully ignorant about many things... HOWEVER, the one that probably drives me the most crazy is how the left hates Elon Musk. Not even counting the fact he's one of the few people on this planet that wants to and is ACTIVELY TRYING to save the entire human race, he's also just an incredibly likable person. I was on this dating app called OkCupid, which matches you based on how you've answered a wide variety of questions. One of those questions was "Is Elon Musk crazy smart, or just crazy?". At least over 50% of peoples answers was "just crazy". So out of pure curiousity, I messaged every single person I found who answered "just crazy" and asked them in the most safe/non-judgemental way I could, why they thought he was just crazy. After not a single answer, I even changed my question to sound like I agreed with them but that I was just curious for their reason for thinking he's crazy. Still, not one answer.
      What the hell.
      The obvious answer now is "He supports nazis!" or something, due to his changes to Twitter.. But I was asking these questions before he made the purchase. Either way.... Imagine hating someone for such a childish reason, when they're literally trying to safe the human race lol.

The dating scene went full potato after Trump got elected, and they started hypnotizing women and kids through social media. I've figured out the easiest way to sort through the far leftist virtue signalers without sparking some absurd political debate I have no interest in having is to ask one simple question. "What do you think of Elon Musk". The answer to that question will tell you everything you need to know in regards to how hypnotized they really are by all the online propaganda

    I've mostly been educated on computers and toys. I had a plastic computer that I carried around, and I learned basic math on that. I spent all summer on "Read, Write, and Type." It would not have taken a normal child as long as it did me. We are considered waste in the classrooms and get passed along. You can't fail some kids, which is stupid but yes.

      There are thousands of doctors, professors, scientists etc. developing the best possible teaching system and curriculum for many decades, wtf do you guys think?

      I don't like when Elon assumes that "A says something is impossible, therefore B must also say it's impossible" is a faulty basis for problem solving.
      Our reality has proven that it is impossible to have everyone move like Elon Musk, therefore no one else can say that it's possible, because it just is, quite frankly, IMPOSSIBLE. There's no workaround to that.

I got the gist of it but never used it until later in life.

    As someone who can credit a massive portion of what I can do now to the extracurricular activities I did in middle and high school - namely robot design competitions - I can attest that getting the kids to develop their brain as much as possible with useful skills as young as possible is extremely important. You learn much more slowly as you get older, so the more you can get right at a young age, the better. It's the same with computer programmers. The best ones are the ones who started when they were 10.

    • @philj9594

      This was very amusing to read as someone who is at the top of their cohort in a computer science program at the age of 36 and I've only been learning for two years. I run circles around kids and have a way easier time grasping programming topics and do so at an exponentially faster rate than most of these above average IQ 20-sometings (thank you genetics). To be fair, there is a kernel of truth to your sentiment, but that idea is a bit outdated and rooted in tons of faulty neuroscience that you see mostly from pop psych articles. It's true that older people tend to be more rigid in their thinking, but it is far from being the barrier that you seem to think it is. I outperform almost every single young person I meet, and a large part of that is due to the wisdom I've gained from age. Hell, even if you look at this from an IQ perspective, very little performance is lost until you are in your 60s or older. New data is showing more and more that the decline is negligible for the majority of our lives provided you take care of yourself. The real issue is rigid thinking, and hilariously, your comment is a perfect example of that. The true roadblock. I guess I'd expect nothing less from someone seeking out Elon Musk videos on youtube with a cringe doge pfp. Yikes. Stay mediocre kids. I'm going to change the fucking world. Look up the CAIT intelligence test. I scored a 153 and smoked all the kids on the r/cognitivetesting subreddit at the things people associate with youth (speed and working memory). Age has nothing on the truly gifted with a plan and a drive. I bet you believe in "the 10,000 hour rule" and other such nonsense as well.

    This is great! Makes me have a different perspective on him as a person. I hope we can see the school system change to teach history just as it happened and sciemce and math in entertaining ways, where kids can follow what they are passionate about in that moment. The teachers jobs would be to answer questions in advanced detail and teach to each childs goal. If we want a society full of specialized jobs and people, we shouldnts try to standardize "common core" everything. I also think critically thinking and logical reasoning should be taught repeatedly as the frontal cortex is forming. The future i want is one where we start caring more about the bottom of society and trying to raise the floor and rebuild a strong and healthy middle class by reducing wealth inequality. Is it moral to have multiple billions of dollars especially invested in appreciating assets? (I do think elon in trying to fight the good fight.

      ..m afraid, inviting one to create doesn’t generate a neo-creator, nor suggesting a thought enacts a thinker. Warming activity isn’t tautological to ensuring progress. It is mapping fm pt a to pt b. Setting such frameworks is (again) a ‘geometric’ limit, while the instructor-front hosts a ‘lighthouse’ that democratically proper awaits (long or short) everyone to reach there ahead. That doesn’t necessarily happen to all, just might.
      Thinking is primarily a physical reaction to the immediate habitat and children often (wanto) learn more by a feeling force, as is by observing another’ selection and awakening to the dynamics of jealousy. necessity and need teach rather faster than any qualified inspiration leaders.
      Say, let children listen to an exotic tune and freely dance along, alone or in unison, and they’ve explored more abstract and idea-culture possibility than the distanced pro-design short-lived setting may promise.
      Certainly, we so r compromising per our genetic human orientation: mimesis.
      Thus, if u r an accomplished artist or scientist teaching thru whichever method, the pupil would mimic u to a certain degree. Of course reflection occurs, but the reflective mode is not thus set as default, mimicking persists.
      Safer to start very low, very slow, know-how neutral, away from demanding abstract reasoning fm the young. Firstly u build ethos, HABIT, virtue INCLINATION, next inspire genuine non marketable pride, then u let the human power feel free and ..que sera sera.
