    fr, how tf does it work? we evolved to hunt big game, eat berries, and have social groups of 150 people max. how tf do we have the capacity of doing all the rest, like being in societies of millions of people, being able to read, study a subject for years, etc?

      I have no idea. When I'm at work talking to people about a particularly difficult problem, I always feel like it's someone else piloting my body. My ape ego has no ability to integrate the wildly abstract shit I do for work.
