life is full of lessons, no?
and maybe having learned a lesson or not maybe one thinks one knows something or not.
and maybe one does and maybe one doesn't.
me i always remember my elementary teacher trying her darnedest to teach me maths.
where she lays down the fundamental steps to solve a simple problem that most any numb skull could do in their head.
of course being a proficient numb skull
i'd do the problem in my head instead of on paper the way she demonstrated and demanded.
thus failing to learn successful methods handed down by generations of painstaking academics and ingenious thinkers, all the while me smugly thinking that i could do in my head what these so called smart ass's need devices to determine.
of course i failed to realize that life is full of complex mind boggling problems and questions that require considerably more brain power than even the most proficient numb skull could muster maybe even with the advantage of using devices.
so but on this same sort of note now i've been trying to teach something that is about as ignorant as a pile of rocks (a computer) to play blackjack, the activity of which is for a proficient numb skull such as myself so very simple and mindless.
thousands and thousands of lines of code and the thing still isn't getting it, lol.
an me i wonder whose fault is that, lmao.
amazing how truly mind boggling complex what appears to be so simple can be.
so but anyway i remain convinced there is power in ignorance cause at least there is a potential to learn something, lol.
the cliche word so fondly tossed about heuristics maybe has a good reason for being cliche, in that there is power in short cuts even as ignorant as they may be in their essence.
that being said i know there is a cautionary note to be concerned about when acting in ignorance with shaky heuristics as i believe ExhibitCAA's OCP guessing problem proves http://www.blackjackinfo.com/bb/showthread.php?t=15314
