The purpose of a high IQ is to solve puzzles that other people need solved so they will give you money and status and power.

If you waste this ability on video games and navel gazing about the horrors of existence, you are going to have a bad time.

I did.

@WallStreetMav I hope to be nowhere near the West Coast when the next Cascadia Fault rupture happens.
Same for my descendants.

@WallStreetMav Would love to know if anyone measured to elevation those reached at the surprisingly high-points.

People who live near the ocean should watch this:

INCREDIBLE capture of the tsunami arriving in Kamchatka after the M8.8 earthquake struck offshore on July 30th

Higher testosterone makes men do what they believe is right rather than what others believe is right

Fair question:

[Ryan Gerritsen🇨🇦🇳🇱 @ryangerritsen]

What changed in 2015 to cause this to happen? 🤔

Now I really know what I want for my birthday:

[vegastar @vegastarr]

Still think they've built the magnificent giant buildings from the past with hammer and chisel? ⚒️

@WillyKennon @VladTheInflator What’s your guess:
How much bank ownership and rental price optimization is required to put upward pressure on home prices or rent payments in a local market?

@worldranking_ Who is collecting interest on this $324 trillion?

Please post your infographics for this.

The scientist who discovered that hand washing dramatically reduces mortality during child birth was ridiculed by his colleagues and committed to an insane asylum.

In the asylum, he was beaten by the guards and died 2 weeks later after a wound on his hand had become gangrenous.

@thirtythree @therabbithole These are excellent rules for companies but are especially needed for governments.

[Grant Strem @GoTaMars]

@therabbithole So for most people, bringing a few diapers, a few packs of beef jerky, some beverages, camcorder; a long weekend in orbit might cost $20k-$50k soon?

@HealthRanger The only realistic way to go very big very fast is massive-scale cyclic oxidation of geological deposits.
I’ve been saying this since 2015.

Before the internet, you didn’t need to show ID to:

✅ Buy a newspaper
✅ Read an encyclopaedia
✅️ Use a payphone
✅ Watch the 6pm news
✅ Listen to talkback radio
✅ Use a phone book
✅ Look something up in a dictionary

But from this December, Australians will need to submit to age verification just to log in to a search engine.

This isn’t child protection.
It’s surveillance, plain and simple.

Probably shows I liked wired me differently.
I watched a lot of battles in space or post-apocalyptic wastelands or in pre-history against …antagonists.
And dancing like Carleton/Steve Urckle.
