You know, to any of my children, you know, putting a gun in the crib, or- ... you know, I'd be carted away. But the... I think that kind of underscores the kind of violent life that was... you could expect as a Viking. I mean, strength was valued more than anything else. - So the understanding of the world is harsh, and that strength is the way you must face that world. So when you have those people, and especially the ones that self-select
And so as Quazi put it, they very understandably ask what has democracy done for me lately?
or going after the nuclear facilities, pickaxe mountain, very very deep underground, hardened facility, uranium enrichment capabilities. Trump has said on many occasions they're never going to have nukes, they'll never develop nukes. So then he could say at least in principle, "See, I took away their capacity to do nukes and so that's
that any US president has made since the Iraq war. And that's That's astonishing, again, uh for a president who understands just how damaging these wars can be, have been. For a president who, when he was young, used his family connections to avoid the draft because
out of our hands. Under data colonialism, you are being exploited by a system that oppresses you, taking your data and using it to diminish the rights and protections that we hold foundational to our democracy.
To prevent that, Gideon Sundback himself actually designed a locking mechanism like a break. Under the piece that connects the pull tab to the slider, there is a small metal pin. When the pull tab is in its typical resting position, one end of the pin sticks through a hole in the bottom face of the slider,
So the two phases line up and the waves interfere constructively. Underwood and Barbee kept doing this trick for a total of 76 alternating layers, so that in total they could reflect back much more of the x-rays.
- So you have to look for the combination. - Underwood and Barbee had already made mirrors that could reflect light of around four nanometers. And since that wavelength is so small, it seems like the obvious choice, but the maximum reflectivity for those mirrors was only around 20%.
In particular, we should listen to people who disagree with us. Understanding the best arguments of your critics, understanding what information those who disagree with you have that you lack is very helpful for making better decisions. - The best calibrated people aren't those who know the most.
In the event of an emergency, an auxiliary break is designed to bypass the motor entirely and directly lock the drive shaft. Under normal circumstances, the chance that all three safety measures fail at the same time is vanishingly small. But these weren't normal circumstances.
At the bottom, the landing became a dangerous choke point. Under the pressure, the steps twisted and buckled into jagged metal, leaving 24 people injured. Something like this shouldn't have been possible, and experts at the time knew that something had gone wrong, and they started to suspect foul play.
So the material gets weaker. Under tension, it stretches. But when I heat up this rubber band, the opposite happens.
And the next morning, the leaves were falling off. Under low stress, where crystallization doesn't happen, natural rubber loses the advantage.
- Nice. Okay, that's a good name. Under the army's order, DuPont ramped up Teflon production at their test plant in Arlington, New Jersey, giving their whole supply to the government. But DuPont struggled to produce enough Teflon to meet the military's demand.
This is a tiny yellow submarine. Under water, it can move around by flapping these miniature wings nine times per second, but you can use those same wings when the submarine is out of the water, only now you have to flap them 250 times a second
you think and having that dialogue that's another form of evolution if you will for the uh for the AI system in in forms of uh you know potential dialogue ogue that it could have with humans to understand. So maybe just pushing a little more in this direction. We've spoken a bit about how humans whether they are students or educators or uh you know business professionals interact with AI but I'm assuming as this goes along this is going to have a lot of implications for how our organizations are designed how they interact with each other and these organizations are not
There are two very famous psychologists who specialized in understanding the meaning of meaning. What does it mean to understand the meaning of life? They're Michael F. Steger and Frank Martela, two important social psychologists. And they define meaning as really a combination of three things: coherence, which is why things happen the way they do; purpose,

behavior. And this to me is the missing piece of the puzzle that once you appreciate that things that were otherwise mysterious could come clear and we understand we could understand better understand the bad behavior of other people and sometimes of ourselves. What's some examples of what I'm talking about? Well, one example is vengeance. We have a punitive impulse. And again, I think good behavior could never arise unless it's accompanied by some desire to um to punish those who who deceive, who free ride, who prey on others is a prerequisite. We need this
