A massive thanks to Yair who took me and Sasha with his paramotor for free. Amazing experience! To be above the clouds in such an exposed way :D - this experience will stick with me for a very long time! videos.trom.tf/w/tzAsKoDKqhNKx…

Sometimes you come across some super nice people.... very happy!

We also took him and his daughter for a night with the telescope and they were amazed. We showed them the Orion nebula, the Moon, Saturn, Jupiter and Mars. Quite a show! We had super interesting conversations. :)

Watch the video now! haha

Basic Income study: What was the effect of giving 1000 poor people in Texas and Illinois an extra $1000/month?


I'm not usually a fan of Sam Altman, but this is something cool he funded.

This study gave 1,000 people in Texas and Illinois $1,000/month over 3 years and collected large amounts of data on employment, health, housing, schooling, time use, entrepreneurship, and more.

The results are remarkable, a very strong argument for universal basic income.

National and territorial weather records broken or tied this year





A piece of "trivia" everyone should take note of about the Baltimore Francis Key Scott bridge collapse


I have long wondered how automatic windows replacing manual were ever approved for safety windows as they make the vehicle into a death trap if the electrical system fails

Six construction workers were drowned while taking a break in their vehicles when the bridge collapses. Two survived, one in serious condition when rescued The other....

"He survived because his window was manual. He was able to roll down the window and escape."
