I started watching the video linked at the top and the first anecdote is about Elon Musk using first principles to determine he could be rockets cheaper than current companies. He compared $130m to the price of raw…
Yes this was my thought when he implied not knowing the proxy settings, or even that you must connect to a proxy, to get internet was a sign that someone “doesn’t know computers”. It’s like a mechanic making a blog post…
I just started swimming with a local Masters group a few months ago and can definitely notice a difference in my mood if I miss a couple practices. I thought it was just my imagination but didn’t even think about the…
My first job out of school was final test for a semiconductor in Phoenix that had a small fab in Gilbert. I remember we took a rabbit suited tour there as part of the new hire orientation, it was pretty neat. The one…
Do you have any sources to recommend if I wanted to learn more about this thought?

I'm not trying to justify not acting on climate change. That original comment is really just a snippet of some internal thought trains I've had with myself after we decided to grow some of our own food- where the price…
I'm raising pigs for the first time at home and I'm having a similar dilemma with the slaughter date just a few days away. They're like 300lbs dogs- playing with each other, running to me when I come out (although this…
This is an off-the-cuff response so maybe I'm completely wrong, but I recently started baking sourdough at home with my own starter. The starter is simply flour and water, but after a while of refreshing with new flour…
I’m hitting the paywall so I can’t read the article, but the headline reminds me of something Andrew Huberman talked about in one of his recent podcasts- https://youtu.be/rW9QKc-iFoY It’s a small segment at the…

I just found this blog post a couple days ago that seems relevant to your post: https://www.scotthyoung.com/blog/2018/12/14/think-better/
Wow this is the first time I've ever seen a contrarian opinion on this book. I've never read Why We Sleep but I see it pop up in threads really often.
Thank you for this, I love good book recommendations.
If by microbes you mean bacteria. Maybe we also contain fungus as well though. And actually, if you're looking at cell count our cells are outnumbered by about 10:1, it's incredible!
This seems to me like someone criticizing introductory physics courses because they're not taking into account air friction and all the other minutiae from the very beginning. If someone progresses to the point where…
This article doesn't mention the declining insect population at all but I would think it's clear that a quickly declining food source would be a major cause of population decline. I wonder if there's a similar decline…
I'd never heard of Erik Naggum before but his wikipedia entry makes him sound interesting as hell- https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Erik_Naggum
Can anyone speak to the different translations? My local library doesn't have this book and the cheapest Amazon version is the 1973 translation of the German translation of the Polish original. But I wonder if it's…
I think this is the first place I've seen recently that says steady-state cardio is better than HIIT for anything. It does seem odd that they study they cite compared equal times for steady-state vs HIIT; I thought one…
Maybe you meant to say Earth is anti-human. Earth is incredibly life friendly. There's been five previous mass extinction events and each time life has rebounded amazingly.
There's also immediate benefits, like helping to alleviate some of the current issues with our mass-produced food chain, eg less concern w/ salmonella in your romaine if you grew it yourself, higher quality eggs and…
I'm a bit more impressed with this article. This person posted the project to reddit 14 hours ago [https://www.reddit.com/r/hiphopheads/comments/bw6xs7/lyricsr...] and already here's this professional looking write up…
