A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. A showerthought should offer a unique perspective on an ordinary part of life.

Rules

  1. All posts must be showerthoughts
  2. The entire showerthought must be in the title
  3. Avoid politics
    1. NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out
    2. Political posts often end up being circle jerks (not offering unique perspective) or enflaming (too much work for mods).
    3. Try c/politicaldiscussion, volunteer as a mod here, or start your own community.
  4. Posts must be original/unique
  5. Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct-----

All this excess of information, games, shows and everything else is ruining our boredom, which is usually what leads us to think more creatively (programming.dev)

Isn't that what schools have to teach them?

It's a difficult ask, but if we consider schools the social equalizer and teacher of knowledge and work (approach, mindset, finding success), then learning why the devices or platforms influence us the way they do and how we can stick to tasks to complete them must be taught in schools.
