I have never claimed I did not say that. In fact, I say that again.
Paradox. Irrational. You cannot argue both sides of a paradox.
It takes between 10,000 and 20,000 to become an expert at any field.
Too bad it takes you 20,000 hours to figure out how to sort clothes!
You seem to have exaggerated some simple ability to do something with being an expert.
No, you just don't know what 'expert' means.
The word itself first appeared in the English lexicon around the late 14th century, coming from the French experiri extracted out as 'ex', or out of or from', and 'periri', meaning experience or skill.
In other words, an 'expert' is one with experience or skill. That's all. If you are practiced at sorting clothes (which can literally be learned in hours), you are an expert. The act has become a skill (and a useful one).
There is no minimum number of hours to become an expert.
It really is a sign of the times.
Cliche fallacy.
Everyone has to be told they are special, and an expert in anything they want to be.
No one needs to be told they are an expert. They either are, or they aren't. They are either skilled in a task, or they aren't. There really is no gray area.
If you tell them they are not a world renowned expert, they start crying out of control, and saying how mean you are.
Expertise does not require world recognition.
I am not an expert on being an expert,
Strange loop fallacy. You cannot deny an identity.
but I know a thing or two about it.
You just said you didn't. Which is it, dude?
One of my side jobs is hiring real experts,
Bullshit. You don't even have any idea what the word even means. Go read the meaning I've given you.
so I can tell you that it really does take between 10,000 and 20,000 hours to become a real expert.
Nope. You can become an expert in literally an hour or two...even less. There is NO minimum time required to become an expert.
In the grown up world, not everyone can be an expert in everything.
No one said they did. Pivot fallacy.
In fact, most people will never be an expert in anything.
You don't get to speak for everyone. Omniscience fallacy.
You cannot be an expert in anything in a few minutes.
You certainly can.
We sort clothing because of different cleaning effects on different colors and types of materials.
People sort clothing for all kinds of purposes. Shirts from pants...formal from informal...socks from underwear...colors from whites...clean from dirty...
It is all based on biochemistry,
No chemistry in sorting clothes.
one of the most complex forms of chemistry.
You don't know what biochemistry is. Ask me how I know. (Hint: I'm an expert in that too.)
If you want to be an expert in what types of clothes to be separated, with the ability to extend human knowledge on the subject, you need to have a very good understanding of the biochemistry behind it all.
Expertise does not require extending human knowledge. Neither does sorting clothes (except for the development of your own skill in the task).
Remember, being an expert means that you are not just doing what other people have taught you, but coming up with new solutions to new problems. You understand the process so well, that you have some ability to predict new outcomes, and to understand new outcomes. In this case, that involves an in-depth understanding of biochemistry.
No chemistry in sorting clothes. Buzzword fallacy. You obviously don't know what biochemistry is either. Ask me how I know.
Picture this, you are called as an expert witness in a court case.
Been there...done that...got the T shirt.
When the lawyers question you to make sure you are an expert,
Heh. I know quite a few incompetent lawyers! They are NO experts!
you say you spent 2 minutes studying the subject.
I've spend much more then 2 minutes, but ok...let's say the skill in question was learned in 2 minutes.
I think the only thing that might prevent you from being sent to jail for contempt of court would be your obvious insanity.
It is not contempt to answer a question truthfully. It is not a crime of any kind.
To master a subject, means you can do it competently.
And I do. Too bad you aren't rich like I am! Your avarice is showing again.
To be an expert means you have an understanding of the internal workings of a subject well beyond just mastering it, and can and do extend human knowledge on it.
Nope. Not the definition of an expert. Redefinition fallacy. Go read the origins of the word that I have given you. THAT is how words are defined.
You clearly have no knowledge of the biochemistry behind clothes sorting, and I have to wonder if you have even mastered clothes sorting.
No chemistry in sorting clothes.
