What's the best advice you've ever received?
People are a lot more alike than they are different; everyone you'll ever meet knows something you don't. Is there anything else you'd like to add that might be interesting to readers and fans? A good hack lets you do more with less. We need some fantastic enormous hacks to address climate change. So hey everybody, let's get busy! from a Bill Nye Q&A http://lifehacker.com/thats-a-great-quote-1681290547 I read this as, we are all very similar so we should recognize this, find common goals and cooperate at a grand scale. And there is nothing better than finding a way to do more with less, so if we'll on cooperating on something it would be most beneficial if we were making a repository of hacks (design revolution) to do more with less :) Obviously because we think it will result in a better future outcome than if we didn't. We'd have tons of cash and we could do all of the things that we feel we can't do now dummy! But we hear it time and again, it ruins many people's lives. Watch the video and think about it. Think about the other things we think we want, and think will bring joy. Free energy, self-driving cars, etc. Self driving cars is happening, free energy could take some time. But if we had free energy would that mean world peace, or would it mean we could destroy the earth faster? Could we mine more, produce more, create more garbage? And these self driving cars, are people going to be able to chat and hang out while going somewhere, or are they going to allow parents to not even have to take their kids to baseball practice? Or create more pollution, ... or things far worse. Just try to think things through a bit more, try to figure out what you should really hope for. "But in the 1970s, a professor of Psychology in Vancouver called Bruce Alexander noticed something odd about this experiment. The rat is put in the cage all alone. It has nothing to do but take the drugs. What would happen, he wondered, if we tried this differently? So Professor Alexander built Rat Park. It is a lush cage where the rats would have colored balls and the best rat-food and tunnels to scamper down and plenty of friends: everything a rat about town could want. What, Alexander wanted to know, will happen then? In Rat Park, all the rats obviously tried both water bottles, because they didn't know what was in them. But what happened next was startling. The rats with good lives didn't like the drugged water. They mostly shunned it, consuming less than a quarter of the drugs the isolated rats used. None of them died. While all the rats who were alone and unhappy became heavy users, none of the rats who had a happy environment did." from http://www.huffingtonpost.com/johann-hari/the-real-cause-of-addicti_b_6506936.html And from Bruce Alexander site linked to above Bruce tries to compare how we think of addiction and how we should. And I don't know if it makes sense to add it here, but a short film on loneliness. From that Tony Robbins Money book I found this 30 minute explanation of the economy. While you watch this imagine the impact a design revolution could have. I believe (and I don't think it's too hard to prove) we've got the tech right now, it's more a matter of using it, and as with most things I think comes down to a marketing challenge. |
