That&#x27;s the thing that I found dumbfounding: These aren&#x27;t incurious people.  These are clever, capable, curious people.  (lack of curiosity occurs in far too many people of all ages around me)<p>It&#x27;s just that they deal with their curiosity differently: They seek an answer, and are content with whatever level is currently available, and move on to other matters, while I revel in the uncertainty.<p>Can&#x27;t say one is better, though I&#x27;m obviously more comfortable with my version.  Will say they feel very different, and I end up feeling alone in the crowd.<p>Related: One coworker at my previous job noted that we enjoyed our high school interns more than than college interns because the high schoolers hadn&#x27;t had their sense of wonder and curiosity beaten out of them.  I&#x27;m still evaluating if I think that&#x27;s true.
