🅰 Can eating too much liver cause vitamin A toxicity:
In the carnivore community there seem to be 2 camps:
- The "nose-to-tail" camp, where you have to eat organs, especially liver.
- The "eat meat, drink water" camp, where that's it.
While I love all the people in these camps, and I love hanging out with them, I sometimes feel like an outsider because I've found that the answer is always " it depends." Which is probably one reason (of many!) why I'm bad at social media lol.
The dreaded valley of open-mindedness.

🗣 What's easier: Making vs Commenting:
"The biggest change in my professional maturity came when I became Actually Responsible for things...I gained a lot of appreciation for people who make things, and lost a lot of tolerance for people who only pontificate. I found myself especially frustrated with my past self, whose default was to complain and / or comment, then wonder why things didn't magically get better."

🎓 How to learn like a Nobel Prize physicist:
You really know something if you can teach it to a 6th grader. While big words and complex explanations may seem impressive on the surface, it often indicates a lack of deep understanding from core 1st principles. This is exemplified in the Feynman Learning Technique, devised by Richard Feynman, a Nobel Prize-winning physicist:
- Pretend to teach it to a 6th grader
- Identify gaps in your explanation
- Organize and simplify
- Teach it to the 6th grader

🔘 What crisis is coming:
I stumbled upon this video that is nearly 3 years old on The Coming Retirement Crisis. I peripherally knew that demographics had a big impact on the economy, but this snapped it into clear focus. And it seems to fit in perfectly with other macroeconomic trends like the end of the long term debt cycle and The 4th Turning. In piecing together these macro theses, I can't help but feel there is a big "RESET" button that is going to be pushed.
