There’s a lot of pressure to make things dumber

Four year olds easily learn to speak, and many kids in second grade can read. Not because they have a dumb version, but because someone cared enough to make the method simple. There are simple explanations for quantum mechanics and for auto mechanics as well. They simply take a while to understand well enough to teach them to other people. Start with basic principles, go slow and build. No need to dumb it down. Simple it up instead. We have enough dumb. We need more simple.
