Is most of the computer world stupid?

It's not that they're stupid - it's that they're lazy, I think.\n\nI have some High School friends that seemed perfectly fine in real life, but then when they transferred over to email and instant messengers, the truth came out. "hay mully how r u 2day????????"\n\nI don't care who you are, if you're going to talk to me, you can spell out the words "you", "for" and "to". It's not that difficult. \n\nI also do not need to see more than 1 exclamation point or question mark. People are so odd.\n\n♥

Absolutely!  Most children today aren't even learning how to write in cursive and most printing is almost illegible.  \n\nHave you ever thought that if for any reason we lose electricity or computer crashes, how helpless this generation would be?  They can not add without a calculator, they can not write without a computer and they can not communicate with out a cell phone.  We are headed for a big problem...we have never been smarter and we have never in history been dumber either.\n\nMy grandpa used to say that about me and I believe it is pretty true...my handwriting is pretty bad and I hate holding a pencil too.  My grandpa used to whine that we had manual typewriters!...even before IBM and the electric typewriter!\n\nYep...getting dumber and smarter with every new generation!  Pretty soon, people won't know how to sign their own name.

Do you mean we are now stupid for being subjected to the amount of stupidity on here or that there are just way too many stupid people participating that it seems the Human Species is very stupid in general?

No, only if you're a computer geek. If not don't bother.

Amidst all of the ignorance and nonsense posted in response to this question, I'm once again amazed that some of these people even know how to operate a computer.\n\nYeah, I said it.  Some days I just get fed up with you people... :(

I don't really know. Maybe when people realised that some blondes are quite extremely stupid.\n\nWhy was there  Tipex on the Screen of a Blondes Computer?\nBecause she wanted to erase a mistake.

I wonder how people can be so clueless...yet still operate a computer.

It seems unlikely that the internet is self-aware, and therfore, it is unlikely that it can "know" anything.  I'm sure there is information generated by various processes that no human has seen, but I doubt that much of it has any real meaning apart from its involvment in computer processes.\n\nPS. No one is two words.

Computers can only "know" what humans have taught them. They may be more smarter then an individual person, especially word processors that fix your spelling mistakes and things, but in the end, a computer cannot know what humans as a species don't know. We are the ones who program them.

My friend, there is an old saying: People are stupid.  In fact, I believe that this may answer just about every question on this site.

Yea, have fun spending money for nothing. theres not alot for Databasing itself. to be in the computer field you need overall knowledge of everything.

Thats a broad generalization.  No, not all men are totally stupid, not even most are.  Of course, there are stupid men in the world, but then again, there are a l lot of frickin stupid women as well!

I think your right, even though we are on computers and no one can see us, many people still have nervesousness about this. Of course there are the young idiots who will say just about anything. If you feel you can answer a question, give it your best shot. What is the worst thing that can happen, the person asking doesn't like it. Hey, you still get two points!\nGood qustion!

i dont think there's any way for that to happen. All computers are, are our knowledge. all we do is program them. they cant think for themselves. all they are is a bunch of 1's and 0's.

Yes because I used to like typing in basic (Beginners All-Purpose Symbolic Instruction Code) into the computer from the magazines that used to have them and then get the programs running, plus I tried writing simple question and answer type programs.  I first learned it on my Commodore Vic-20 with 5K of Ram and two 3 and 1/2 inch Floppy drives with 720 K diskettes and a place to plug in cartridges to play games and no hard drive.\n\nI thought the old computers were fun for me and I learned about computers that way and the inner workings of them and how to fix computer problems through Trial and Error Method.

Well, sweetheart, this "stupid" question does not seem to be getting many. Check your reasoning and judgements.\n\nwOrd
