Harvard president Charles William Eliot declared forthrightly in 1912: “There should be no blending of races.” Harvard Magazine has reported, accurately, that “Harvard was more central to American eugenics than any other university.”

knowledge is never information amassed, like a dataset, but involves intentional engagement with what information is about. Intelligence rests on dialogue with the world; flow is the feeling of immersion in the exchange - it is love that invites us in

In theory, competition should bring down these profits, but it doesn’t. The traditional explanation is that consumers are irrational, which is a polite way to say they are always getting tricked.

Mass consumer credit greased wheels of mass production. Credit generated consumer demand; which encouraged industrial investment; which led to economies of scale, lower costs, and more industrial work; finally encouraging further consumer demand

Our genes are like a vast library of recipes that can be cooked up differently to create or change tissues and organs

https://phys.org/news/2024-04-evolution-recipe-errors-insect-flight.html

over 7,000 groups of genes traced to common ancestors of bilaterians
1/2 of these ancestral genes have been repurposed for use in specific parts of the body, e.g. brain &d reproductive tissues
by serendipitous "copy paste" errors in bilaterian evolution

there's room for hope if we act

By looking at how much colder Earth was in the ancient past with lower levels of greenhouse gases, we can estimate how much warmer the current climate will get with higher levels of greenhouse gases.

4.5 million gamers globally advanced medical science by helping to reconstruct microbial evolutionary histories - with a minigame in the video game Borderlands 3. They significantly refined the estimate of the relationships of microbes in the human gut.

new research has shown that by including games in the teaching of these subjects, student achievement and satisfaction can be significantly increased, with numbers of students failing their course cut significantly.

@AskTheDevil Yeah I had those feeling too at that point - it is confusing - because it seems that is only a hypothetical - later he really focuses on inequality - as bad - and inheritance taxes as vital (this is key to mitigating 'rich people' - so it's not intergenerational)

Also he does a great job explaining Henry George's "Land Value Tax" - which is very interesting. I have a professor friend who's very big on Henry George as a reformer
