Human's accumulating knowledge, recording it and transmitting it - is the essence of why humans out-competed all other animals on Earth in the last 200 000 years.
It started with sign language, verbal, cave drawings, stone writings, papyri, hand written books, printed books, newspapers, radio, TV, cinema, Encyclopedia Britannica, company databases, government databases Wikipedia, YouTube, Blogging, podcasts and so on :)
It must be an obvious truth that consuming more of this data should be the only way to be better than the rest :)
Yet most people hate on learning... Or at least deem it such LOW PRIORITY, that they learn new skills so slowly, that their old skills become obsolete first.
Upgrading our knowledge is the best thing we have for upgrading ourselves until GENE modification and bionics become mainstream :) And those becoming cheap enough so you can afford them without specialized knowledge is an Utopian dream, which might just waste Your Life!
This is how Knowledge has served Humans as a second layer of evolution.
Are you going to do and learn new things every day?
Ohh and by the way, Block Chain is the new way of safely storing data, without without worrying, if somebody is "accidentally", malevolently, secretly modifying it :)
P.S. 99% of all accumulated data is outdated, useless or simply -> wrong! Be Smart!
