Dave Martin | Sports + stupidity ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
This isn’t content. It’s conversation. Live. FAFO is two things – Live streams from real events: sports, music, culture and technology, from wherever and whenever the atmosphere is doing its thing. And live workflows tied to the moment: using the same kind of cultural moments to explore how tools like Copilot can help with analysis, performance evaluation, strategy, creative thinking, decision-making or…
If you live your life thinking of what you do, why you do it, and always aiming to better your life and that of others around you, impulses fade and become less and less frequent. Unless you actively think and then change what you want in your life, it won’t (at least not in the way you truly want). It’s…
Here’s The philosophy of Lucy part 1 and part 2 –—– We are all connected in some way. Every single living organism. And every single thing before the first living organism. You are connected to all of those. In some way. On a minute scale maybe. But still in a way. By the data that made you, and the data that makes you.…
What’s your answer? What I am and what you are and what every physical thing on this planet is, is a living organism. One that has consciousness. Either with a level of consciousness that perhaps only we understand, or a consciousness that is different than that of every other species, and a consciousness that precludes us from understanding other species’…
Time travel’s a tough nelly. And largely because Time only goes in one direction. And maybe that’s enough to prove that traveling backwards in it is not possible. Well, this paradox from minutephysics is something that could make the whole thing at least a bitch to do, makes the whole idea a non-starter, and ultimately maybe impossible:
Philosophy and physics are like 2 twins separated and birth and brought up in different families – at the heart of it, they’re fundamentally similar. If you understand physics, you can understand how everything in the world works and interacts with each other. And if you understand philosophy you can understand how everything works in your mind and how everything…
All energy that is used up, lost, burned up, or evaporates, gets used in some other natural processes. And so if the universe is a zero-energy universe, where no energy can be created or destroyed, and all the energy that came into it still remains in it that means we are made of parts of the elements that formed the…
Step 1 – Get a pen: Step 2 – Make a dot: Step 3 – Use your eyeball sockets and specifically your eyeball balls to look at the dot: That’s the size of Earth when you look at it from 900 miles away. Everything ever than anyone ever did, or made, or talked about. Every little problem, every financial headache,…
There was a blackout where I live last night. Which was excellent for 2 reasons –one, because a blackout limits your options of what you can do (and I’m pretty sure there’s a strong correlation between having fewer options and contentment), and two, the time display on my microwave and oven were reset and now my oven displays this every…
Humans understand a bunch of shit. We can split the atom, build the Large Hadron Collider and launch and then land a rocket back on Earth. But there’s one thing we have no clue about, one thing that’s physically impossible to experience and share knowledge about (and therefore impossible to know what the fuck we’re on about), and that’s… yep… Death.¹ The one…
That’s the number of atoms on earth. All matter on the planet. And that’s all that anything you care about is. Just heaps of atoms. People are just a collection of atoms (just like any thing), words spoken are just an arrangement of symbols to make sounds, photos are just an arrangement of pixels (which need the atoms of electronics…
