Comment on Assuming a button that, every time you push it, your intelligence goes up. The obvious and sane thing to do is to push the button all day. Yes? No? Maybe? Is there something that I'm missing here?

  I’ve hurt that for a few people here. Rather fit in and be smart. That’s interesting.

    I meant more like use it to get smarter, but to not over use it to get so smart that no one can relate or know where your thought process is.

      Even if you are a megagenius, you can still talk to the mortals. Just restrict your lingo to their terms and concerns. Operate in that overlap zone.

      And there will be an overlap. I mean, I assume it. Still a creature of time, space, desire, etc. Despite your big brain.
