Not everything goes downhill as we age. Well, surely our close friends circle becomes smaller, hangovers get worse and more responsibilities fall on our shoulders. But a new body of research has shown that some of our brain abilities improve as we age.

For example, a 2011 study looking at data from more than 60,000 people found that our ability to recognize faces continued to improve as we age—until just after we hit age 30. "At almost any given age, most of us are getting better at some things and worse at others," lead study author and MIT department of brain and cognitive sciences researcher Joshua Hartshorne commented to Business Insider.

Another more recent study found that some of our abilities, like reading others' emotions and recalling events that have just happened, to name a few, keep improving until we turn 30. Incredibly, skills like basic math and a larger vocabulary rise throughout our lives and reach their peak around when we turn 50.

Twelve Variations on "Ah vous dirai-je, Maman", K. 265/300e, is a piano composition by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, composed when he was around 25 years old (1781 or 1782). This piece consists of twelve variations on the French folk song "Ah! vous dirai-je, maman". The French melody first appeared in 1761, and has been used for many children's songs, such as "Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star", "Baa, Baa, Black Sheep", and the "Alphabet Song".[1] - Wikipedia

Does that mean that we get smarter with age? Well, it depends what we define as ‘smart,’ but some of our cognitive abilities do indeed improve as we age. However, some will deteriorate, like our ability to quickly process and recall information (also known as fluid intelligence), which peaks at about the age of 18. After its peak, those abilities continually fall over the rest of our lives.

But that doesn’t mean it’s bad news for us. There is another study suggesting that having a greater purpose in life can help protect against cognitive decline among older adults. In fact, greater purpose in life has been linked to reduced all-cause mortality and cardiovascular problems, increased longevity, maintenance of general physical functioning, reduced risk of stroke and reduced incidence of sleep disturbances.

Very few male nurses knew how to iron clothes because they were never taught the skill, plenty of female nurses are absolute slobs at home . . . . .its easy to laugh but if you arent taught these tip, teicks and skills then how can you be expected to know them . . . . . hell, ive been a gym goer for over 40 years but i still come across young men and women who dint know how to form, plan or implement a workout simply because whilst everyone ASSUMES this generation is oh so internet savvy, many arent and dont know how to 'research' a topic. . . . . . another thing to take into consideration is the cordoning off of some skills like car maintenance.

You both clicked and interacted with this so... anyway, TikTok has lots of high quality stuff, especially cultural education, but also a wide variety of enthusiast how-tos and even some pretty decent science explainers. BP has none of that stuff. There are occasionally cool photos and people talking about a place, but there aren't really deep dives or anything pushing boundaries except maybe of tasteful humor. Anyway, you can bemoan the TikTok generation but I am more inclined to assume it is your bias and filters and not the actual state of young people, or even social media.

I did find the one about the dishwasher interesting. I had no clue it had a filter. I grew up overseas in a third world culture that didn’t have almost any of the technology I now have in the United States, including a dishwasher and a dryer. I had left the US when I was 8, so, when I first came back to the United States for college a few years ago, even though I was coming from a family that are citizens from America, I had no idea how to use a dryer or a dishwasher - even though I was 19. So, I find some of this stuff really interesting. Thanks!

People are railing on this dude for only learning these things now and not giving actual life advice, but it’s supposed to be funny, not useful. You can’t see it in the screenshots, but in the video it’s him making fun of himself for not knowing these things. Of course not everyone is this ignorant, that’s the point. You get some videos of him being ignorant, and some of actually useful tricks.

Sometimes it looked like he was just milking basic stuff for filler, like the wooden spoon to stop overflow, but some of this was good info! My husband and I weren't homeowners until fifteen years ago. Still on our first home, we're learning there is a lot of stuff we should have learned about and been don't all along and we are trying to catch up now. This week we're repairing our washer. It's been way out of balance and, once taken apart, we found a lot of wet lint deep in it. I think it will be fine now that it's cleaned, but we had no idea that there is a filter to be cleaned. I recently started treating our cabinets with beeswax, such a difference. We obviously should have been doing it all along, but had no idea. The travel pillow on front? I didn't fly regularly until my thirties. It was a few summers of flying home before I realized that one.

Almost everyone here has slammed this, or judged it negatively... Why? The guy is just showing others some of the things he's learned in life that come in handy for him, and he's sharing some of his helpful hints to others who may not have anyone else to teach them things. I'm a lot older than a lot of you and I've never seen tongs used to juice a lemon before, so I don't have a juicer, and I'm going to try it! Sounds like a good idea. And the salt in the hot oil of a skillet is a helpful tip, too. Why knock every single tip with such ugly, negative & 'judgy' remarks? His home looks very clean, I didn't see "up his nostrils" and I think he presented a few helpful tips for folks who'd like to learn something new to help them navigate thru some of lifes mundane chores. Old adage that applies here; If you've got nothing nice to say, then don't say anything at all.
