it works for complex things too. yes you need someone to feed you the puzzle pieces most of the time but building things from first principles as much as you can is usually the way to go


i dont think so..if someone else worked it out and explained it well enough so that you can believe theyre correct it would save a lot of effort when all u need to do is understand whats already been established


If you're short on time yes for sure but first principles if done correctly always leads to the superior understanding that plugs into other related things better

analysis is a basic thing we all do, which gets exponentially more useful with subject knowledge and understanding/experience, but which is also an automatic process

there, i solved the world


no ones talking to you learn some f*cking humility

Arcbell says

if you don't understand something as a whole, you break it into parts that you can understand, you analyze it


yabut u cant break it into the parts if u havent researched what the parts are


think like you're starting with the corner and edge pieces when you're solving a jigsaw. you don't know what the whole picture is, but you know how to start building a framework by operating on the parts you have. thats analyzing to understand something new!


i guess that works for intuitive things that u can figure out in ur head if its got a simple ruleset but im not gonna pretend for a second i have any place working out how stocks and investments work when i dont know any more about them than an average person

no sht you research things if you want to analyze them correctly/seriously. i was not attempting to write a thorough analysis of anything, especially not "investing".

Lucid should add the ability to purchase tokens with btc so when bitcoin crashes we can all get a ton of bitcoin for super cheap and then buy thousands of tokens for a couple of dollars.

analysis is the main strategy smart people have for understanding things they don't already understand so...


analysis is what u do when u already understand something.. whats the point of analyzing when u dont understand it.. its like spitting a little on ur finger and wiping it on the girls face when ur filming bukake and shes already drenched in semen


what an amazing analogy
