I’ve definitely turned into the paranoid nutcase within my friend group in recent years, I hate that everything is “smart” nowadays requiring an app/internet connection & account, just to do basic things that didn’t require any of that before.
What’s some things currently making you ramble like an old man?
College is a chosen path. You chose to learn it. It is not a required course for everyone.
Not everyone needs to know how thermodynamics work.
No Plumber needs to know how to configure firewalls.
No Secretary needs to know how to do plumbing.
So what is your argument then? “Not everyone needs to know Thermodynamics”. Maybe that’s why that is an advanced class in highschool. Do you just not like people getting a general, well-rounded education?
It looks like an English teacher never taught you how a paragraph is formatted, Mr. I-make-a-new-line-after-each-sentence.
Are you just here to agree with me?
Yes. Not everyone needs Excel. That’s why you learn it when you need it.
That’s why it’s not on the curriculum and why it’s not important. That’s also why Excel and computer literate do not go with eachother.
“The new guy at work doesn’t know how to use =(index …)” is of no indication of anything. Just teach him.
Yes. Because Lemmy has a non-dynamic line width that everyone adheres to and a proper wordprocessor in its editor.
I use lines because it makes text more readable. This isnt Latex, i am not writing an Essay.
I am telling you people why Word and Excel are not life defining skills, that everyone needs to know.
Why do children not learn how to use Latex anymore. How are they ever gonna be technologically literate when they cannot even use Latex.
