    Sometimes I feel like the brain has a hard limit on the amount of information it can take in, and doctors seem to hit it during their training.

    It’s sort of the same effect that can prevent elderly people from grasping new technology.

    Personally I think your theory seems more accurate, however…

      I mean, there is a hard limit on how much info your brain can take in. It’s time. Every hour spent learning one thing is an hour not spent learning everything else.
