I hated chemistry in school, because it was teaching us irrelevant shit like the electron structure of atoms. But when I'm interested in something, I'll look it up, and may get lost in a Wikipedia wormhole for hours about the most random topics. (some recent ones were: image file formats, the history of feminism, Serengeti National Park)

Imho the difference all lies in when knowledge is shoved down our throats vs exploring it out of curiosity.

I used to think like this until I found out you can explain a lot of chemical interactions by just knowing how the electron structure of atoms lead to those reactions. Helpful when you try to wonder if anything could be toxic.

Does that mean that the people who got an A in biology are more right than people who got a B in biology?
