Knowledge Vampire

Someone who is great is extracting information out of others. There are two kinds of KVs -- i) who keeps the knoweldge to themselves and ii) who shares the acquired knowledge.

KVs that keeps the knowledge to themselves are harmful to the society.. They collect knowledge for selfish reasons and use it against the person they acquired the knowledge from. It's important to identify them and seal them in their coffins.

KVs that shares the knowledge with others are good. They are like robinhood but the knowledge. They acquire and release the knowledge for the betterment of the society. It's important to identify them and promote them to free more knowledge to the world

This podcaster is such a knowledge vampire. He knows how to suck the knowledge from the guests.

Knowledge Junkie

Knowledge Junkie (noun): An intellectually adventurous individual, often of high intelligence, with an insatiable curiosity and an intense drive to acquire knowledge. Often labeled as “know-it-alls” due to their obsessive focus on intellectual pursuits, they show little interest in non-intellectual discussions. Driven by the need to constantly challenge and expand their understanding, they are willing to take significant risks—such as venturing into warzones for firsthand insights or scaling extreme mountains to test their mental and physical limits—in pursuit of learning.

"I swear, my friend Jamie is such a knowledge junkie. Last year, she hiked through a jungle just to study ancient ruins up close, and now she’s talking about traveling to a warzone for some documentary research. She’s always chasing the next big thing to learn, no matter how wild it is."

Knowledge Goblin

A Knowledge Goblin is someone who hordes knowledge. They will surround themselves with knowledgeable people from different disaplines. They don't necessarily stop people from learning from them but they do no teach people what they have. They are mire preoccupied with gathering knowledge for themselves.

Bruce keeps asking me questions but won't explain how to work out how to calculate the answer to this problem. He is such a Knowledge Goblin

Knowledge Bias

The systematic distortion that occurs because what we know shapes how we see. Unlike simple ignorance, which is absence of knowledge, Knowledge Bias is the skew introduced by the specific knowledge we do have. Learning economics makes you see market forces everywhere; learning psychology makes you see cognitive biases everywhere; learning trauma theory makes you see wounds everywhere. Each framework illuminates some things and casts shadows on others. Knowledge Bias isn't a failure—it's the inevitable cost of having any perspective at all. The question is whether you know your perspective's price.

"Ever since I learned about attachment theory, I see anxious and avoidant patterns in every relationship, including my goldfish." That's Knowledge Bias: when your tools shape what you're able to see, and also what you're unable to unsee.

discount knowledge

Education obtained at a community college, trade school, vocational college, or junior college.

As heard in the Rodney Atkins song "These Are My People":

"Got some discount knowledge at the junior college where we majored in beer and girls"

Four years of college wasn't for us, so we opted for the discount knowledge!
