Скачать или смотреть Reviving Traditional Skills: Why It’s Time to Remember What We Forgot

We live in an age where convenience is king. You can order your groceries while half-asleep. You can ask your smart speaker to dim the lights. Your phone can start your car, pay your bills, remind you to drink water, and probably raise your kids if you let it.
We’ve automated so much of daily life that not outsourcing things feels weirdly rebellious. But as we’ve leaned harder on tech, automation, and outsourcing labor, we’ve lost something vital: the ability to do things for ourselves.
And as our tools get smarter, we’re getting less capable. We’ve traded self-sufficiency for efficiency, and that’s fine to an extent... until the systems we rely on start to fail.
When the power goes out, the Wi-Fi drops, or our “smart” furnace goes on the fritz, we realize—we don’t know how anything works anymore. Knowledge has been replaced by service providers. Skill has been outsourced to apps and corporations, and self-reliance has become obsolete.

Let's talk about the costs of losing these long relied on skills.
