  It’s a common criticism but do you think a reasonably smart person couldn’t struggle through it? I reckon they’d be especially likely to succeed if they were equipped with a good book and some humility. Humility can’t be given but pieces of advice can. Do you have any good ones?

      I think if you gave them a year or two of runway with wikipedia and some YouTube tutorials they could figure it out. It’s not black magic

        And in this scenario, they still have access to normal levels of food and energy during that year?

        Then, what, pray tell, is their impetus?
