Elon Musk just put the entire university system on trial.

Not the curriculum. Not the professors. The premise.

Musk: “You don’t need college to learn stuff. Everything is available basically for free. You can learn anything you want for free.”

For a thousand years, universities held one monopoly. Access. You paid the toll or you stayed ignorant.

The internet erased that in a decade.

Every lecture. Every framework. Every textbook. Free. From any screen on Earth.

The six-figure tuition is no longer buying knowledge. It is buying a signal.

Musk: “There is a value that colleges have, which is seeing whether somebody can work hard at something, including a bunch of annoying homework assignments, and still do their homework assignments.”

That is the product. Not intelligence. Not creativity. Not vision. Compliance.

You are paying $200,000 to prove you can tolerate bureaucracy on a schedule.

Musk: “Colleges are basically for fun and to prove you can do your chores. But they’re not for learning.”

The entire system is a sorting machine for corporate HR. It does not measure what you can build. It measures whether you can sit still, follow directions, and deliver on command.

Four years of obedience dressed as education.

Musk: “If you’re trying to do something exceptional, you must have evidence of exceptional ability. I don’t consider going to college evidence of exceptional ability.”

The system optimizes for average. It rewards the compliant. It certifies the patient. It quietly filters out everyone who refuses to wait for permission.

The ones who reshaped the modern world never finished the test.

Musk: “Gates is a pretty smart guy, he dropped out. Jobs is pretty smart, he dropped out. Larry Ellison, smart guy, he dropped out.”

They did not drop out because it was too hard. They dropped out because the speed limit was too low.

The most dangerous thing a university does is convince a generational talent that finishing the syllabus is the achievement.

It is not. It is the floor.

A degree is a receipt for compliance. The future has never belonged to people who finish their homework. It belongs to the on

@Jason It’s cool tech but if 3D-printed housing was truly as magical as they are selling, Austin should have been the proof point: permissive regs, pop boom, techy buyers. Instead the next chapter is defense/gov infrastructure. Does the model only work when taxpayer demand is involved?

🚨 New study 🚨

The biggest project of my PhD is out in @MSSEonline.

🔑 findings: Strength training improves running economy durability & high-intensity performance following prolonged running.

🙏🏼 @rich_blagrove for the SUPERvision on this

The effects of flywheel training vs accentuated eccentric loading on strength, power and speed

🔹 Well trained collegiate sprinters (n=14)
🔹 100m PB = 10.8s; 1RM Squat = 150kg

8 week squat training program (x2/wk) using flywheel or accentuated eccentrics

Interesting use of VBT to optimise inertial load in flywheel training 👇

Flywheel = 4 sets x 7 reps @ 0.5 - 0.6 m/s (GymAware)
Acc Eccentrics = 4 x 7 @ 120% 1RM in ECC phase and 80% 1RM in CON phase

Both groups increased:

✔️ Squat 1RM (5-6%)
✔️ SJ (6%)
✔️ CMJ (7-13%)
✔️ 30m Sprint (3%

💥 Improvements in CMJ and Elastic Utilisation Ratio were sig. greater in Flywheel group.

Authors: ".... both FWT and AELT are effective at enhancing lower-body strength, power, speed in sprinters, with FWT being more effective in promoting elastic energy storage & full utilization of the stretch–shortening cycle."

Cavaets:

・ No control group
・ Small sample sizes (2x7)

@Jason Looking forward to having you join us. It’s a great town.

[Carson Boddicker @CBoddicker]

This is cool. Perhaps @Apple, can also make its watches usable for real training with this update too? https://t.co/sVRntq7rCf

@spikesonly How has the understanding that TAV matters changed your design and prescriptions v 20 years ago?
