This is why it's important for STEM and tech people to have some understanding of liberal arts. "Understanding" means having perspective, it's easy to get caught up in our world, thought patterns, echo chambers, and biases. I think that's why curiosity is such an important trait, it promotes understanding, not the accumulation of facts. Next time you're at a book store, pick something up on a topic that sounds interesting that's outside of your traditional scope.
