A man spends 50 years teaching at MIT.
He knows his time is running out.
So he records one last lecture — everything he knows, distilled into a single hour.
He died 5 months later.
This is that lecture.
The most important hour you'll watch this week. 👇

Waiting for the 4D chess people to explain how the incipient surrender of Taiwan to China and abandonment of a central pillar of US security in the Asia-Pacific for 50 years is in fact another stroke of pure genius from President Metternich.

Trump on Taiwan: When you look at the odds, China is very, very powerful, big country. That's a very small island. Think of it, it's 59 miles away. We're 9500 miles away. That's a little bit of a difficult problem. Taiwan was developed because we had presidents that didn't know what the hell they were doing. They stole our chip industry.

The Trump administration's approach to science research is baffling. Incomprehesible. If it focused on "overhead" fee tack-ons, I doubt five people would disgree. Cut the fees in half, no damage done. Cut the basic science, and talent leaves or doesn't come. A recipe for decline.

This piece really clarifies how far ahead China is on rare earths and why it will take a decade for the US to catch up. Even if Bloomberg is wrong and it's only half a decade, the leverage it gives China is enormous. bloomberg.com/graphics/2026-…
