accepting that my brain relies on my computer

my brain has developed in such a way that i do not retain information and instead focus on remembering techniques and procedures and knowing how to store and search efficiently for the information i use. i sell this to people as arguing i have an advanced mind. i dont do mental math. i dont know when meetings are. i dont know when my last period was. i can find out though alternative theory: i am stupid

taterhole totally.... general research skills and low-level white collar work will soon near obsoletion while critical thinking and investigative skill is more important than ever to have valuable skills in the marketplace. i fear we will not see this pattern emerge at the level necessary to support the current economic structure of society... interesting times ahead
