1. What news I'm tuning in to -
- The NY Post and Good Morning America featured the Carnivore Diet this week. It was a great example of why I don't watch the news. They largely present biased, one-sided points-of-view, with incomplete information taken out of context. Nonetheless, the Carnivore Diet has picked up major steam. Record numbers of people are starting the carnivore 30-day experiment every day.
2. What poll I'm taking -
- I've been working on a massive article on why eating
plant-based foods may not be in your best interest. I was thinking of calling it "Plant Pain" or "When Plants Attack." My ideas are always corny. I would love any suggestions for a better title! And, if you don't mind sharing, do you prefer to read one epic article or prefer smaller "bites" in a series?
3. What nonsense keeps me sane
-
- Sometimes I just bang around on keys. It's nonsense therapy. Highly recommend having / finding your "keys."
4. What quote I like (almost as good as nonsense therapy :) -
"I judge you unfortunate
You have passed through life without an opponent
-
no one can know what you are capable of, not even you."
-Seneca
5. What doctor I'd choose -
- Option 1: Surgeon very well dressed. Diplomas covering the walls
- Option 2:
Surgeon looks like a butcher. No diplomas on the wall.
6. What perspective on money is
shocking -
- Global debt = $250 Trillion
- Real Estate market = $215 Trillion
- All Fiat in the world = $100 Trillion
- Stock Markets = $75 Trillion
- Gold = $8 Trillion
- Bitcoin = $140 billion (that's a "b")
7. What's being predicted -
- Agur is a prediction market that runs on a blockchain. It recently launched, and this week assassination predictions were created by anonymous users (including Trump, Buffet, and Bezos). Normally, a centralized organization would remove these, but Agur is a decentralized platform, which means they can't censor information. If this is
true, it raises a lot of questions. Like how does law enforcement deal with criminal activity on decentralized platforms, who is responsible if something happens, how do we handle (lack of) censorship?
It's a pleasure and an honor getting to spend some time with you, hope you have
a great weekend!
