We really don’t run out of resources thanks to knowledge. Perhaps it’s time to stop so many European deaths from heat and cold. Let’s help them with heating in winter and air conditioning for at least the month of August. ;)
There’s established science on the benefits of analog note taking and building mental systems (over mere goals per @ScottAdamsSays ) and evolving science on the dangers of careless prolonged use of AI.
I know that you’ve probably seen this thread by @naval many times. But like any classic that triggers you to see things from a new perspective AND to act differently, it’s worth re-reading. Many times.
People thought we were “locked-out” of these “rare” elements needed for progress OR we had to look to asteroids. But there appear to be more here on earth (but not yet controlled by the CCP). Another mental hack -always remember that when you’re out of options - you’re not.
THE TRILLION METAL POTATOES HIDING UNDER THE OCEAN More than 3 miles down in pitch-black freezing water sit apple-sized rocks packed with cobalt, nickel and manganese worth trillions. They’re key for EV batteries but live in a no-man’s-land ocean zone nobody owns. Now…

This week we're sharing "The Framing of Decisions and the Psychology of Choice" a classic paper published by Tversky and Kahneman in 1981. In this paper the authors show that wording alone can flip people’s choices on identical pay‑offs, proving we are far less logical than…

From Professor Claude: When a single influential voice breaks through enforced conformity in a repressive system, several key patterns tend to emerge in sequence: First, there's often an initial shock effect - a sudden rupture in what political theorists call the "spiral of…
The thing about Elon’s alleged political power is that it mainly flows from just saying things out loud that are obviously true.
Mr Bean talks on the wave of arrests in the UK rooted in personal expression. The unjustified restriction of free speech subverts any social order. Let’s find ways to air competing ideas rather than seeking to criminalize them and finding insult or injury in every one.
🚨MUST WATCH: MR. BEAN'S DEFINITIVE DEFENSE OF FREE SPEECH (FULL VIDEO) Rowan Atkinson: "The clear problem with the outlawing of insult - is that too many things can be interpreted as such." Source: @avavidan
Think what you will of @Snowden It’s hard to see any reason he’s wrong here. Be smart.
In 2021, the Biden Administration got $42.45 billion from Congress to deploy high-speed Internet to millions of Americans. Years later, it has not connected even 1 person with those funds. In fact, it now says that no construction projects will even start until 2025 at earliest.
This is very bad. And unless it’s a deep fake (which seems unlikely) Very concerning. Not just for us but for our children and descendants. Wow.
This is absolutely insane… This is Jared Bernstein. Chair of the Council of Economic Advisers. He advises Biden on economic policy.
Let’s stay focused on what matters most and is the next right thing.
It’s that time of year. Set aside some introspection time and do what will have the most impact for a future on your terms.

I’m reposting this cool solar winds video. Enjoy and have a great 2024.
Each second, 1.5 million tons of solar material, traveling at 100 miles per second, shoot off the sun. Earth's magnetic field deflects most of it, but not all. The solar wind, a stream of charged particles, flows at 447 km/s (1 million mph), and while the magnetic field protects…
Love him or hate him this quick read is loaded with great ideas on business, investing, and life. Pick one or two for some thought followed by aligned action.
A few lessons from “A Few Lessons From Warren Buffett” an 81 page book full of Buffett’s wisdom: 1. Big opportunities come infrequently. When it’s raining gold, reach for a bucket, not a thimble. 2. A funny thing about life: if you refuse to accept anything but the best…
AI work and output will require us the think a bit about some big issues. But I did have fun yesterday doing photorealistic prompts of small robots in various settings.
Images made with Midjourney v6. What is real. 2024 will be crazy.
