To End Extreme Poverty, Give Cash — Not Advice | Rory Stewart | TED

Wonderful video, thank you! As a parent I want to spark curiosity in my children (9 and 6 y.o.), but still I’m so used to tell them: careful, don’t break, etc. Thank you for reminding me that breaking things for the sake of curiosity is a good thing!

Thank you. I was an experimenter when is as young. As an adult I worried about breaking things I might need. Now I see I can experiment without fear of breaking thins.

Breaking things is a fair method to understanding how things works.. would it be more practical and fun to have each techy part standardized with still different grades.. like every phone screen size 7 inch or even swappable parts like Cpu, Ram, ssd, speaker, camera, this would benefit the user to customize their own phone style to their preferred career choices..
No wastage.. since then you could sell it back to someone who needs it.. you start off with a phone and then you buy a second one.. connect them together to get a tablet with even more features to addons.. it could be a mix of all different major tech companies which makes it product sharing and cuatomer caring.. think about it.. Nice one!
By the way, she is superconductingly hot!

I got to warn you kids that being a researcher comes at a cost. You’ll get little job security. Career prospects are pretty poor. It’s highly competitive, so you’ll probably have to sacrifice private life to get anywhere. You’ll probably have to focus on very narrow topics where there’s opportunity for publishing rather than where your curiosity really is, and you’ll have to spend a considerable chunk of your time begging for funds. You will have an administration over you monitoring your performance in terms of dumb numbers like number of papers published and citations. All of this bullshit aside, it’s pretty fun.

wait you want to tell me that majority of people do not test stuff? I really though that if encounter a problem you first check if you can easily test/fix it by trying random stuff such as looking and hitting then if you cant fix it you google it and then based on complexity you fix it or go to someone who knows how to fix it.

I used to be afraid of playing piano. When I was younger I played for my parents, then my whole family, then my whole classroom, then in a restaurant and art gallery, then finally a stage with an audience. Point is ideally you want to start slow and find a way to gradually increase your audience. Rarely do people just decide to jump onto a stage with a huge audience as their very first time doing something in front of people.

Maybe einsteins last words were All Gemein Bildung ist gut and your nurse could just not undestand it. i might be hated for this one but i dont really get hurt feelins from internetcommentsin2020 Im just not autistic enough for this… sorry ais i stayed creative because books are written between the lines of your reading comprehension skills.

Start as young as possible … don’t wait until you’re an adult. Your ability to learn is far less limber as an adult because by then you’ve gone through years of being told things like “don’t try this at home” in the absence of why not or how to try “this” safely.

We don’t experiment nowadays because we rely on R&D specialist to do it for us. We just wait for the big companies to introduce us new technologies rather than trying to discover it ourselves. We may have a fear that it’s a waste of time to experiment because probably big companies already did it, but the speaker proves the importance of experimenting and being curious.
