I'm really not sure this is accurate, you're looking at a caricature of a society (China Town), there is selection bias in your example.

Also think about your example of a white person moving to another country. Is that country still majority white? To make an equivalent argument you need to look at white communities in east asian countries or African countries. Do those examples support this position?

I do that when I'm looking for music that fits my mood, for me music is a functional thing so there is a point and a destination so to speak.

Maybe you just need to find the right thing for the moment.

This is not the full story. It's just one half of the dunning kruger effect.

This is the trap I was in for a long time, because you'd think that being near average is the most likely case right?

But time and again, the evidence shows that I perform above average in my field.

The evidence shows that I consider the effects of my actions more in depth than most people.

But yet, I let others mess things up and cause problems because I don't lead. Because I think I'm just as good as average.

It took until I was 25 to finally be able to step up and say "no, this is stupid" to people, and provide a better alternative.

This is just dunning kruger. You should realize if your default is "I know better", you probably don't. But if your default is "I know nothing", you're probably above average.

I just have my own private instance, saves me worrying about data ownership
