I took this photograph of the 2017 total solar eclipse. I’ve been revisiting it ever since and pushing it to the absolute extreme … revealing crazy details within the solar corona. It looks freaking amazing. But, let’s be honest, I am a bit biased in my opinion of this one 😂

"Idiot" and "idiom" both come from a Greek word meaning "one's own." Historically, an idiot was someone who did things on their own instead of taking part in public affairs, and an idiom is an expression particular to one's own language.

Over 30+ years, it's likely the most powerful AI systems will be developed in China. But there's very little technical safety research in China today. This seems like one of the biggest gaps in the AI safety movement. So we wrote a new profile: 80000hours.org/career-review…

That's about the same proportion of net worth to purchase price as the median American buying a MacBook Pro

Huy Fong's Sriracha hit revenue of $150m+ a year...with no sales team, no trademark and $0 in ad spend. Its creator is Vietnamese-American David Tran, making the sauce's success a tale of immigrant hustle and a product that literally sells itself. Here's the story🧵

My daughter heard Apple was thinking about making a car and innocently asked, “but will it still have windows?” It took me far too long to realize I was being trolled. 🍎 📏🌳

The language we speak profoundly shapes the way we think. I don’t use the word “busy”. Instead I say “active” or “engaging”. Busy imo implies a lack of time, choice, or control. Your language creates your reality & experience of it in a real way. Choose your words with care.

.@GovernorLittle lots to juggle on SB 1211. Pls veto - look at positive environmental impact of re-introduction of wolves in Yellow Stone or laws recently passed in Colorado, and note this is a larger issue of ecological diversity that supports us all. Thank you!
