This world is designed to favor the elderly. Gaining experience through trial and error first means that you have a competitive advantage over latecomers. It also occupies an advantageous position in social organization. This is the advantage that arises from being the first to start. However, the statement that 1 plus 1 equals 2 can be understood without any experience; it serves as an analytic proposition that can be known by reason compared to the aforementioned experiential proposition. In other words, in the realm of analytic propositions, the advantage of being older does not hold much weight. The world needs both experiential propositions and analytic propositions, but experience is not always essential. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
Corn is a mysterious plant. It is the most viable crop on Earth, but it can only survive with human touch. Corn kernels look like plants born from the premise of human care, as the thick shells wrapping around the corn kernels can rot them if human hands do not peel the shells off. The more corn ripens, the more sugar converts to starch. Therefore, it’s delicious if you harvest it quickly and eat it immediately. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
