  • To be fair to the other side, it’s entirely possible (and even common) to have worked in a field for 20 years while learning completely incorrect things about it. Or learning nothing.

    People say things like “I’ve used a computer every day for 20 years, I think I know how it works” and then ask if they should “reboot the hard drive” and then they power cycle the monitor.




  • Depends massively on where you are. Out in a really rural area, you’ll probably get one a year tops. Middle class suburbia, but not a gated community? Probably substantially more, like 1+ a week.

    I’m in the suburbs but up a couple of hills so I generally get fewer than 1 a month (that I know of. I have my doorbell disconnected and live with others so it’s possible I get more and just don’t know about it)
