And that's the really cool thing about photography. And every time you go click, most photographers don't understand is that one important thing is that click is the summation of everything you've done to that point in time. For example, if we were to sit there and say a bald eagle. Everybody picture a bald eagle in your mind?And how many people have actually seen a bald eagle in the wild. So even though not everybody has seen one in
It's the sum of the inverse squares, 1, plus 1/4, plus 1/9, plus 1/16, and so on. In summation notation, we can write that as the sum as n goes from n to infinity of 1 over n squared. This actually has a closed form solution.
and other so-called incurable diseases go up in smoke so we can produce more tofu like you see at the bottom. This is a quick summation of what we've been able to achieve in 25 years at The Amazon Conservation Team. Because when we started up, the big organizations you all know, like World Wildlife Fund and Nature Conservancy were focused on protecting biological diversity
I know that I have forced all of you to go back in time to ages when there was no electricity. So in summation , any story that you know of, any legendary creation-- in the tech sector, maybe you think the iPhone is one of the greatest things ever made.
This is a psychiatrist who was a victim of the Holocaust and was in a concentration camp. And basically the summation of his experience was that he could tell essentially in just a short conversation with somebody if they were going to survive in the concentration camp. The most important determinant of that was that they had meaning and a purpose.
I mean, 14 to 1. A pretty good summation of what we do to try to make everybody thrive, what I believe Google does, what conscious capitalism companies do,
fall into a state as barbarous as that of the centuries that followed the fall of the Roman Empire." Then of course there was Vannevar Bush's 1945 article, 'As We May Think' in which he noted that the summation of human experience is being expanded at a prodigious rate, but the means we use for threading through the consequent maze to momentarily important items is the same as was used in the days of square rigged ships.
on-off switch. Neurons are continually firing. A neuron that's not firing is a dead neuron. And basically the summation moment to moment of roughly 5,000 inputs every few milliseconds determines whether the neuron will fire. Okay? Great. So, I wanna talk now about two critical words that are really easy t-to lose. This is probably
I know that I have forced all of you to go back in time to ages when there was no electricity. So number one is just a summation of what we talked about before.
really is I earlier in my care I spent four years with the Royal Shakespeare life been it's the summation of a whole the mortality of uh of realizing
and watch me work for a paper she was doing, and she described it as I was an air traffic controller. I feel like that was a good summation . I was trying to not have planes crash.
It's not by choice. Choreography is the art of dancing-- to give it a quick summation .
I mean, 14 to 1. So the power of your wake-- I think wake is a really good summation of what conscious capitalism is all about, just being mindful of the impact of what
because I think that's an extremely interesting part of the book, of how you can help people increase savings But of course, macroeconomics is nothing more than microeconomics plus summation signs.
And so we need to think deeply about voice and all its technical implications as well. And I'm going to show you a quick little video that we put together that kind of gives you a summation of my career. -I understand you met Whitney Houston back in 2004 after being introduced by Stevie Wonder and began working with her.
At the same time, to have a better first cut when you encounter a new piece of data, a better first instinct, whether that's meaningful or not, whether it should change your summation of a problem or not, that's helpful as well. And poker is a very game for developing that skill, I think.
More different than just positive and negative charge. You know, I think this talk both to their summation and their use of perception as a means of determining reality.
I'll read to you. I guess it's the summation of the situation.
on the student. The student wants to make their life easy. My my summation to them is play around with it. Build habit uh and as you do I mean the other very important thing is not to trust it. uh
for disease. So conceptually, it's very simple, and it's just a really simple summation .
It's not by choice. I think it's very important to realize that, although what I said just now, that summation is kind of notionally accurate, it doesn't do justice
