Civilization was built by people like this, and there is a stunning lack of gratitude in our culture for their work.
In this specific case, at least half of the apple varieties in Brown’s collection were considered “lost” until he personally tracked them down and saved them.
He literally went on quests where he did things like, tracking a lost variety back to a stump of a long-ago-cut-down tree near an abandoned homestead in remote Appalachia, took cuttings from the green shoots coming out of the stump, brought them back and planted them.
Absolute legend.

Tom Brown, a retired engineer, dedicated 25 years to preserving approximately 1,200 apple varieties from extinction.

@Jurrie "Institutional power is not based in merit or productivity, it's based in status."

I think it's complicated. Depends on where in the hierarchy a leftist resides. There is a base level of resentment for success. John Mackey, Founder of Whole Foods, had a great explanation of the historical resentment between elites & the merchant class. This persists today. x.com/ideafaktory/st… Beyond that, the lower rungs are resentful, but they're being misled by people who, at their core, are power seekers. Institutional power is not based in merit or productivity, it's based in status. This is a status-seeking movement, and those outside it, like entrepreneurs, who create legitimate wealth and status through the creation of value are a threat. They violate all of the institutional rules, diplomas, certifications, gates, and reward systems institutionalists guard so greedily. And they will go to great lengths to bring them down (Luigi, Oct 7) and restore an order over which they can preside. When they gain power, their power is illegitimate and deep down they know it. That's why wokeness and communism both required varying degrees of force and coercion to maintain. Forced equality is not a product that sells itself, except to those who have nothing. Because it's based on lies and wielded by unimpressive, unaccomplished bureaucrats. The risk is: the longer more people find themselves having less, the more appealing forced redistribution becomes.

“Many journalists today aren’t trying to seek truth or cover stories fairly; they’re performing for their peers, making sure they’re seen asking the “right” questions.”
Oprechte Nieuwsgierigheid en proberen iemand te begrijpen is vervangen door tenenkrommend moralisme
Camus@newstart_2024
Konstantin Kisin watched the BBC’s tech editor interview Elon Musk and came away stunned. Not because of the tough questions — but because the interviewer ran out of questions. Kisin asked the obvious: How do you run out of questions when you’re sitting across from the guy who wants to make humanity multi-planetary, built Tesla, and bought Twitter because he believes free speech is existential for society? He contrasted it with Bill Maher, who was “like a kid in a candy shop” interviewing Elon and clearly had plenty more to ask. Kisin’s blunt conclusion: it’s not just bias — it’s a dereliction of duty. Many journalists today aren’t trying to seek truth or cover stories fairly; they’re performing for their peers, making sure they’re seen asking the “right” questions. It’s a sharp observation about how journalism has changed.

Please help spread the word: I’m honestly shocked to see my illustration being used on T-shirts sold at the Monte-Carlo Masters without my permission or a licence. I never expected something like this from such a major tournament. If someone from the organisers sees this, please contact me so we can resolve this properly. @montecarlorolex @atptour

Niantic Spatial 🌎@NianticSpatial
Most digital twin investments stall for one reason: They’re not grounded in how the world actually looks today. Niantic Spatial’s Reconstruction capability fixes this, creating a living, machine-readable 3D model that stays in sync with reality, so every system, team, and workflow operates from the same ground truth. In a new blog by Trista Pierce, Business Development Lead, explore how Scaniverse’s Reconstruction technology changes the cadence entirely. Read more: hubs.ly/Q04brNtg0

@TadekSolarz ja, het moraliseren is tegenwoordig overal de schaamlap om de onderliggende (weerbarstige en veel complexere) problematiek maar niet hoeven te bediscussieren

Nou ja aandeelhouders willen hebben bestuurders nodig die bedrijven succesvol maken. Om dat succes te stimuleren stel je een variabele beloning voor. Deze bestuurders hebben afgezien van de structurele loonsverhoging omdat ze dat niet gepast vonden. Als je dan die doelen bereikt komt Nederland in actie niet met de structuur ter discussie te stellen maar met een aanval op de personen zelf. Het is kwalijk.

Je stelt een bestuurder aan met concrete prestatiedoelen, koppelt daar een beloning aan, ziet vervolgens dat die doelen daadwerkelijk worden gehaald, en reageert daarna verontwaardigd op het salaris dat daaruit voortvloeit.

Schaf de landelijke politiek gewoon af. Die waterdragers voor Brussel bestaan alleen om gemeenten te dwingen antidemocratisch beleid door te voeren dat tegen de belangen van de lokale bevolking ingaat. Zet in plaats daarvan een aantal uitvoerende ambtenaren neer, en wat rechters die de internationale verdragen interpreteren volgens de heersende globalistische consensus. Dan kunnen we allemaal stoppen met kijken naar die beschamende poppenkast die ze democratie durven te noemen en bezig gaan met dingen die er wel toe doen.

CDA minister Van den Brink vanavond bij Nieuwsuur: Ik zal gemeenten desnoods hardhandig dwingen meer asielzoekers op te vangen. Dan wijs ik gewoon een plek aan en beveel ze van kijk eens even, daar komt nu een asielzoekerscentrum. Joe. #asielzoekers #vandenbrink #asielzoekers

Hmm, ik denk juist dat iedereen zijn eigen persoonlijke UI zal willen precies op maat met alleen die dingen die je zelf belangrijk vindt

The UI era is ending. 🪦 For 70 years we designed computer interfaces. Mainframe, CLI, GUI, Touch. But with AI, the interface is disappearing. What will come next? My talk from @mastra's conf this week:
