@chrisamaphone There is this quote from more than a decade ago that stuck with me: "Among highly intelligent people, there are two kinds of minds, the sharp and the soft. We expect smart people to have minds like swords, made to fight and slash and slay. Soft smart minds, though, are of another, rarer kind. They absorb great quantities of data and opinion, often silently, even sluggishly, and turn them around slowly until a solution appears." https://www.newyorker.com/magazine/2013/01/28/music-to-your-ears
