So weird how teaching is such a punching bag for tech bros including the ones who sit around trying to cash in the cultural cachet of "caring about education" just as much as the ones who like to cash in on "shitting on education"
I think it's revelatory to ask what makes people's skin crawl and clearly teachers make these guys crawl out of their skins. Like I think this is true on a visceral level for them
@grimalkina with the benefit of hindsight, I *know* that teachers have had a significant impact on both my successes and failures in acquiring knowledge and understanding. But I still often *feel* like it was "all me"! It's a strong cognitive dissonance. Could it explain some of these views? You can't be a lone genius if you stand on the shoulders of "mere" teachers.
