They always use defensible excuses for the indefensible

This is the point. Same will happen in all countries that will make social media age restrictions. “Won’t someone think of the children” is usually not about the children

@FutureJurvetson @naval 🤦🏻♀️🤦🏻♀️ it’s around that time the indoctrination started.

The scientific method is an algorithm, a process for eternal learning. It has been the greatest advance in humanity’s ability to learn. For most of human history prior, there was little to no progress. Almost no progress in a human lifetime. Any silly idea had equal merit as a “personal truth”. It was an intellectual hell.
H/T to @kevin2kelly in What Technology Wants:
“In all cultures prior to the 17th century or so, the quiet, incremental drift of progress was attributed to the gods, or to the one God. It wasn’t until progress was liberated from the divine and assigned to ourselves that it began to feed upon itself.
There was a tight feedback loop as increased knowledge enabled us to discover and manufacture more tools, and these tools allowed us to discover and learn more knowledge, and both the tools and the knowledge made our lives easier and longer. The general enlargement of knowledge and comfort and choices — and the sense of well-being — was called progress. The rise of progress coincided with the rise of technology.” (pp.89-90)
“By systematically recording the evidence for beliefs and investigating the reasons why things worked and then carefully distributing proven innovations, science quickly became the greatest tool for making new things the world has ever seen. Science was in fact a superior method for a culture to learn.
Why didn’t the Greeks invent it? Or the Egyptians? Science is costly for an individual. Sharing results is of marginal benefit if you are chiefly seeking a better tool for today. Therefore, the benefits of science are neither apparent nor immediate for individuals. Science requires a certain density of leisured population willing to share and support failures to thrive. In other words, science needs prosperity and populations.” (p.91).
He is not saying that every technology is positive, but the collection of all technologies — the technium — is positive and compounds improvements for society over time. Some his ideas seem so obvious in retrospect... but I had not heard them crystallized in this way...
“Most change in the past was cyclical. For most humans, for most of time, real change was rarely experienced.
And when change erupted it was to be avoided. If historical change had any perceived direction at all, it was downhill.
In ancient times when a bearded prophet forecast what was to come, the news was generally bad. The idea that the future brought improvement was never very popular until recently.” (p.73.)

As a Tesla shareholder, I hope @elonmusk merges Tesla with SpaceX as soon as possible.
Give us one company to bet on this generation’s greatest entrepreneur.

Value creation > money. Thank you @elonmusk

@Sajwani @SenWarren Not impossible, but definitely requires factories on the Moon and Mars to achieve.
By then, I don’t think dollars will be used as currency. Just mass and energy.

@elonmusk Let them talk soon they’ll be on the value creation timeline tooooo

Girl to girl, your body is your business.
If you’re not going to the gym at least 5 times a week, eating well, staying on top of your hair, skin, brows, and booking your mani and pedi every 3–4 weeks, you’re simply not optimising your potential.
And before anyone gets offended, this is the basics.
No one expects perfection, but this industry rewards women who invest in themselves and take pride in their presentation.
Looking healthy, fit, polished, and well-maintained isn’t an extra, it’s the foundation.
The best investment you will ever make is in yourself.
