The distinction between engineering and magic is entirely a modern linguistic conceit.
To the ancients, a wizard, a magus, a sorceror, was not a man who commanded forces outside the laws of nature. He was a man who commanded the forces of nature, by manipulating them through his understanding of natural law.
But the modern word for a man who commands the universe by understanding its laws is "engineer".
Yes, the ancient sorceror would try to commune with the spirits of the dead, or read the destiny of kings in the stars, or perform fertility rites to make the crops grow, but this wasn't some special supernatural discipline to him.
This was simply his model of how the natural world worked.
He would not have made a distinction between understanding heat and phase changes, and thereby distilling alcohol, and cutting out the intestines of a bird to predict the fortunes of a business venture.
Both, to him, were philosophy and natural law.
But as our understanding of the laws of physics grew more sophisticated, we gradually exiled the term "magic" to that which had not been proven to work, and to that which had been proven not to work.
Were we given the opportunity to take an ancient Egyptian king on a tour of modern society, riding in an electric car, he would remark that we are a rich people, because we have many powerful magicians.
Some of us might hasten to correct him, telling him that there is no magic used here.
But he would not, in fact, be wrong.

@maximumpain333 This is what @amerix advocates.
Fasting heals.
The end of the video is hilarious though.

Kenya 🇰🇪
A Kenyan honey seller, recently made waves on the internet thanks to a marketing strategy as unique as it is hilarious:
He sells his honey with a photo of his face horribly swollen on the label.
The photo was taken just after he got stung by a bee while harvesting his honey.
He cleverly used this photo, bearing witness to his mishap, to prove the authenticitv of his product. His swollen face became irrefutable and amusing proof that his honey is entirely natural, unprocessed, and harvested directly from the hive through hard work.
This brilliant idea transformed a painfu experience into an incredibly effective and original marketing tool. His ingenuity demonstrates how transparency, combined with a great sense of humor, can create phenomenal buzz and instantly draw the world's attention to a smal business.

People often say mathematicians are not afraid of anything—except one thing: the Collatz Conjecture.
It is one of the most famous unsolved mysteries in mathematics.
Here’s how it works:
Pick any positive number.
If the number is odd, multiply it by 3 and add 1.
If the number is even, divide it by 2.
Now repeat this process again and again.
For example, start with 7:
7 is odd → 3×7 + 1 = 22
22 is even → 22 ÷ 2 = 11
11 is odd → 3×11 + 1 = 34
…and so on we get:
7 → 22 → 11 → 34 → 17 → 52 → 26 → 13 → 40 → 20 → 10 → 5 → 16 → 8 → 4 → 2 → 1
The surprising claim is this: no matter which number you start with, you will always eventually reach 1.
It sounds simple, but no one has been able to prove that it is true for all numbers. That’s why it remains a mystery.

@sukh_saroy @Wealth_Pill Expect to see more projects like this.
There was a time people paid to learn how to code. Now they dont.
The times of hiring devs and paying for basic software features is coming to an end. No more mediocre SAAS.

🚨Breaking: Someone open sourced a home automation platform that runs entirely on your own hardware - and it supports over 1,000 integrations out of the box.
It's called Home Assistant. And it's not a smart home app.
It's a complete, self-hosted home automation OS - local control, no cloud required, no subscription, no company in the middle reading your data.
Here's what it actually does:
→ Controls lights, locks, cameras, thermostats, sensors, and appliances from one dashboard
→ 1,000+ integrations: Philips Hue, Google Nest, Apple HomeKit, Zigbee, Z-Wave, MQTT, and more
→ Automations that run locally - no internet connection required, no latency
→ Energy monitoring dashboard - track solar production, grid usage, and battery storage in real time
→ Full mobile app for iOS and Android with location awareness
→ Works on Raspberry Pi, home server, NAS, or any x86-64 machine with UEFI
→ Monthly releases - 2026.3 shipped last week
Here's the wildest part:
Google Home, Amazon Alexa, and Apple HomeKit all route your smart home data through their servers.
Home Assistant runs on a Raspberry Pi in your closet.
Your automations fire in milliseconds. Your data never leaves your house. Your devices keep working when the cloud goes down - which they will.
Amazon discontinued Alexa Classic. Google killed Stadia, Inbox, and a hundred other products. Apple required a HomePod hub.
Home Assistant has shipped a new release every single month for over a decade.
85.5K GitHub stars. 37K forks. Still going.
