| Dec 8, 2016 at 20:14 | comment | added | Thom Blair III | @JulietteEvans I wasn't aware that precognition could get creepy...I mean, standards of decency/political correctness might be different amongst seers of divine mystical auras and such...after you watch the entire fate of humanity unfold in countless paralell universes, watching someone blowing their nose in private might seem less significant. Idk, it sure did with me! Lololol! | |

| Dec 8, 2016 at 20:08 | comment | added | Juliette Evans | @ThomBlairIII So she's like, creepily watching someone over the shoulder as they text their friends and whatnot in the future? | |
| Dec 8, 2016 at 20:07 | comment | added | Juliette Evans | @RobWatts I'd assume she went to school sometimes between now and the future. But if structured learning is deemed obsolete, then there'd be no schools around the area. So how is she going to watch herself operating anything in the future since her future-self won't know how to do it either because there wasn't any school around teaching her how to do it because structured learning is obsolete and deemed unnecessary? | |

| Dec 8, 2016 at 20:05 | comment | added | Rob Watts | This is an example of a bootstrap paradox. If the seer has no clue how to operate a machine, how is there a future in which the seer is using the machine correctly? | |

It entirely depends on your precognition: if it's a hazy thing more omen and intuition than science, it doesn't really help as a training manual. If it's a crystal clear vision, sure - but now you've got temporal loops. | |
