What do you mean by "worth" for that matter?
When I can walze into a big newspaper and outdo what highly educated people can't, when I have no education, reducing work tasks with 90% time, like 7 hours for internal newsletter, 3 hours for manual install, etc.

I do my own law cases, I don't need a lawyer. Even won a case against Denmarks biggest tele/internet provider.

I am good at what I do.
Sounds like Bob Evenson.

Why would highly educated people be doing your job? Surely they'd be writing the leaders, columns and editorials rather than bothering with an internal newsletter.

"Manual install", what are you talking about?

Don't try it if it involves you and a serious criminal offense.
Even won a case against Denmarks biggest tele/internet provider.
What was the case?

What is it you do?

- sometimes you can "heir" a job, and all the predecessors has failed on it.

- in days of old you had to manually install a PC.

- I've won like 8/10 cases.

- it was that they wanted money that I legally owed them, but they screwed me over by dropping my internet connection that I've paid in advance for 1 month in another earlier case.

- the previous thins I've mentioned, I'm retired now.

Yes but all the predecessors are unlikely to be the highly educated on a national newspaper are they.

Manually install the PC or the software? Again, what has this to do with the highly educated? As its a skill you've learnt or you haven't.

For whom and about what?

Hardly need a lawyer then.

- internal newsletter isn't related to any kind of genre, it's not a "newspaper* thing, it could be for biker club, McD ..or whatever.

- I believe that IT people are highly educated people.

- if you manually install a PC in a workplace, it usually entails software too ..so yes. They haven't learned to install a PC in 5 min back in 1997, such thing didn't exist.

- for whom ..who do you thing, you always ask utterly stupid questions, I just explained that earlier, but your comprehension skills are non existent.

- problem is it's partially a governmental business, so it's kinda impossible to win against such thing.

- what relevance is my age?

..A_uk as said earlier your comprehension skills are non existent/very low. You ask questions that has already been answered and when given an answer a 2nd time, you don't comprehend it still.

I've talked to many people through the decades, and you are amongst the most lacking. It seems your intellect are mostly at math though on high lvl I must admit.

No, I don't have a clue about IT, but later in life my knowledge has increased on the basic gaming front, but not on programming or such non gamer related things.

I once had a C64 which allegedly should be very easy to program, but I didn't understand anything of it, so I gave up and only knew how to start up a game.

We all start off that way, Hex. Interest and desire took this programmer from nothing to pretty darn good. It's doable.

The Commodore 64 was my first computer. With the help of a book on BASIC, I created a very good program (so good, my friend was reluctant to give it back).

I knew people with Commodore's, etc, but I didn't start programming until the late 1980s. Picked.it up really quick, though. I've lost track of how many languages I've been through. (Only a few are worth it. Lisp, Forth, C, perhaps Haskell.)

That's right, and back then not generally not done by the highly educated in the organisation.
- I believe that IT people are highly educated people.
Not back then they weren't.
- if you manually install a PC in a workplace, it usually entails software too ..so yes. They haven't learned to install a PC in 5 min back in 1997, such thing didn't exist.
1997! Are you joking? NT4 and Win 95 had been out for ages.
- for whom ..who do you thing, you always ask utterly stupid questions, I just explained that earlier, but your comprehension skills are non existent.
Just clarifying, so you are saying you've won a few cases about bills in court and you think this makes you a legal genius. It doesn't as such cases are pretty simple.
- problem is it's partially a governmental business, so it's kinda impossible to win against such thing.
It makes no difference in law if its a nationalized or privatized company.
- what relevance is my age?
I was just surprised that an adult still has severe ADHD.
..A_uk as said earlier your comprehension skills are non existent/very low. You ask questions that has already been answered and when given an answer a 2nd time, you don't comprehend it still.
That's Philosophy for you, complete clarification is he name of the game.

My Maths is abysmal, my Logic is strong.

You've been talking to nutters like yourself upon the weeb, you've rarely met one such as me. :lol:

Philosophy is literally defined as the love of wisdom. Although its more practical application is to ensure that the
right type of question is being asked. And it is also important to remember that science is a branch of philosophy
And so they are not mutually incompatible as such. Although nowadays they are regarded as separate disciplines
