wisdom

[home refinisher wants to armchair philosophize wisdom] 

I was looking at another thing to discuss about wisdom, but it's pretty epistemologically dense

Instead, I'll find something with less pages too....

Epiphany! Some deeper philosophy (like the last link) is like electrical engineers are to electrical technicians/repair
As an electrical engineer, they know the deer science and workings of electronics
whereas technicians know rules of thumbs and such mainly for fixing electronics
I don't know exactly how my little simile here matches up though...
electrical engineer : technician
as
philosopher/y : ??
What do you think? Does "??" = psychology

I mean, this one is much more applicable to our everyday lives:

(psychology, not philosophy 
What else could "??" equal?
