A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. A showerthought should offer a unique perspective on an ordinary part of life.

Rules

  1. All posts must be showerthoughts
  2. The entire showerthought must be in the title
  3. Avoid politics
    1. NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out
    2. Political posts often end up being circle jerks (not offering unique perspective) or enflaming (too much work for mods).
    3. Try c/politicaldiscussion, volunteer as a mod here, or start your own community.
  4. Posts must be original/unique
  5. Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct-----

You have to escape the dash, otherwise it becomes a bullet point.

In the age of A.I., and in software programming in general, it’s often the opposite.

Sure, definitely a solid view. I don’t remember who said that, but “the shortest way to solve a problem is knowing which questions to ask and to whom” — something like that.

I really like how this is split almost exactly in half, I would love to see more arrows, more data is always best.
