Absolutely. For example, you can’t name your kid “dipshit” for obvious reasons.

I’m around 1800-1900 and they don’t consider more moves or positions than I do at all. It’s just that their analysis is correct and mine is not even close.
I actually don’t know this for sure, I should say that they don’t verbalise more moves than I think about. It’s plausible and perhaps even likely that they have a lot of moves or positions they do touch on but immediately discard so don’t even verbalise.

Is it not? Perhaps phones make us better at (and finding more joy in) quickly switching tasks, rather than in reducing maximum sustained attention.
At least this study would seem to suggest something similar.

“ Vegemite had been banned throughout the state’s 12 prisons for the past 20 years because it could potentially impair sniffer dogs’ ability to detect narcotics and could be used to brew alcohol because of its yeast content”
Well yes, but you can brew alcohol out of almost anything.
Also, everything “potentially” impairs sniffers dogs ability. Including attention. The question is, does it actually?

I would very much like the nursing home to ensure my family member drank enough every day.
In fact, it’s the bare minimum I’d expect.

True, but them letting their kid use a screen once when you happen to see it is in no way an indication of bad parenting.

Nothing feeds imagination more than boredom. Kids should get bored much more often; they’ll come up with some very creative play afterward.

Perhaps nursing homes should nurse, and ensure people drink enough?

Unfortunately that was a flawed study. They paired trained chimps with people who saw the task for the first time.
It was later repeated, and if given the same training, humans still outperform chimps in this task.
