What kind of facts should every person know? I mean in todays modern world some ppl live so deep with heads up their asses that they dont even know how many continents in the world there are.

And sadly it makes sense, who needs all that data in their head when the info is one google search away?

I myself cant retain facts of real world at all. Recently went to some quiz competition and felt stupid af.

On the other hand all these ppl who know a lot about world usually have shit retail jobs. So is knowing more facts than white collar professional some weird mental flex?

    - The world is round
    - It floats in a gigantic sea of nothingness and spins around a burning ball of gas that could blow up at a moments notice.
    - we are either alone in the universe or we are not, both are frightening

    There are so many things depending on the context that it would be impossible to link them all. That being said, there's a quote that I think is general enough to be relevant here:

    "It is possible to commit no mistakes and still lose. That is not weakness, that is life."
    --Jean-Luc PICARD (Star Trek)

    Math is everywhere.
    Everything can be analised like a machine even other humans like.
    We are just big ML robots, that follow patterns written in DNA, memes and mutate due to the random causes.
    Enthrophy will always win, concentrated energy will eventualy disperse, alliances will dissolve, cities will fail and then humans themselves will perish.
    There is no free will, there is only one roll of the dice at our lives. And what happens with your live is random.

    Other humans are unlikely to help you. If you fail at live your fate will be decided by natural selection. Even if you are a genius your DNA will be lost if you lack one important feature. The only way you can influece the world in that state is through memes (ideas).
