Reminds me of The Prometheus Rising

William James, father of American psychology, tells of meeting an old lady who told him the Earth rested on the back of a huge turtle.

"But, my dear lady," Professor James asked, as politely as possible, "what holds up the turtle?""It's no use, Professor," said the old lady "It's turtles-turtles- turtles, all the way!"

zeeshanqureshi··on Ask HN: What should be taught in schools but isn't?
Why is it normal to classify educated people solely based on employability? Is that all education is for?

Also, all automatons may not be incurious, just as all free thinkers may not be devoid of knowledge. A dash of curiosity and free thinking might help challenge those assumptions.

zeeshanqureshi··on Ask HN: What should be taught in schools but isn't?
I think the 'how' is equally important as the 'what'.

It is sad that our places of education are only about students memorising theories that are decades if not centuries old.

When they must also encourage open discussions, freely asking questions, poking holes in existing theories, aimless search and discovery etc.

They murder curiosity and I don't see that changing anytime soon.

Originality is a myth. Cool idea tbh.

Interactive used-car buying checklist for car noobs.

Not a side project, more of something I built for fun.

There is a pretty popular used car checklist. I thought it needed to be converted to a basic but interactive website, just for fun.
