maybe an obv. observation, but camel drivers having a shit ton of words for kinds of camels combines:
- ~ tacit knowledge is hard to share
- ~ words are mental shortcuts
- ~ chess masters store about 20k chunks, comparable to avg. English speaker's vocab
- > Create your own jargon
- ...you can really group everything into this; > Civilization advances by extending the number of important operations which we can perform without thinking of them
-
