minus-squareLainTrain@lemmy.dbzer0.comlinkfedilinkarrow-up6·3 days agoGood idea to recognize, but bad examples. The issue isn’t even using devices to replace cognitive functions. That’s anprim shit, I’m not gonna do 5 digit numbers on my head, imma use a calculator, especially if it’s something important or there are stakes to getting it wrong. The issue more than anything is agency.
