It is amazing how little some people think through what the strategy is of doing anything. It isn’t a technical skill; it is just knowing what sequence to do things so I can put in the least amount of effort.
I’m not even that great at board games.
Most people are just reacting to everything around them and not making and kind of plan.
Edit: Damn autocorrect AI.
assume? around?
I mean, I would consider strategizing to definitely be a technical skill. Like, there is a lot of technique involved in recognizing what is going on, and being able to determine how best to carry things forward. Like that take a lot of technical skill.
Maybe, but I find that being able to optimize a strategy isn’t usually a specific technical skill, but something else.
If it makes you feel better I’m having a good laugh when I hear my surgeon of a wife telling me how difficult hand eye coordination can be when not looking at your hands. A skill our kids mastered a few months after putting their hands on a console controller :,D Her colleagues tell each other to practice on console games!
Similarly, I’m realising lately that video games have given me abilities to evaluate trajectories, potential collision, to anticipate surprises around me, to filter of “noise” vs actual threats, etc… all skills which are vital to good driving.
Yeah. I’ve heard of studies that state improved hand-eye coordination from surgeons who play video games.
Can you expand on that? What helps where etc. or an example.
Being able to identify the optional action order. I’ve seen a lot of people do work in the wrong order, requiring a lot of rework.
How to identify and mitigate risk during design. So, you have a plan of you fail a die roll, you know what to do otherwise.
Things like that.
