ADHD EXPERIENCES THAT FINALLY HAVE NAMES โ including the ones people still swear are โjust excusesโ:

What if the thought that just crossed your mind arrived the same way a prayer is answered? In this lecture, Jordan Peterson opens with a claim that sounds impossible and spends the next ninety minutes making it undeniable: that thinking is a kind of secularized prayer, that every insight you have ever had arrived more like a revelation than like a calculation, and that the direction you aim decides not only what you think but what you are able to see at all. From an ordinary argument with your wife, which Peterson uses to reveal something disturbing about the spirit in which you speak, he moves through a prophet alone in a cave, a man swallowed by the sea for staying silent, and two brothers and a rejected offering, building toward a single answer to the oldest question a person can ask. What faith turns out to be has almost nothing to do with belief in the way you were taught, and everything to do with a decision you are already making, every hour, whether you have noticed it or not.
This lecture was filmed on May 16th, 2024 in Los Angeles, California.
Elon Musk was asked why SpaceX barely files patents.
His answer flips everything business schools teach about protecting ideas.
"Patents are a recipe book for your competitors."
The room expected the standard answer. Patents protect innovation. Patents are moats. Every startup lawyer's first advice is file, file, file.
He explained why that's backwards for SpaceX. A patent is a public document. You file one, and you've published your engineering solution to the entire planet, with diagrams. Your only protection is your ability to sue whoever copies it. His primary long term competitors are in China. He said suing there would be pointless, so a patent filing would simply be handing over the blueprints with extra steps.
So SpaceX protects almost nothing on paper. The protection is velocity. By the time anyone reverse engineers the current rocket, SpaceX is two generations ahead. The moat isn't a document. The moat is speed.
Think about what that reveals. He'd rather rely on outrunning everyone forever than on a legal system defending yesterday's work. Most companies protect the past. He decided the past isn't worth protecting because he's never going back to it.
Secrets are for companies that stopped moving. If your advantage needs a lawyer to survive, it was never an advantage. It was a head start you wasted.
@Sassafrass_84 I'd watch it and all the https://t.co/zxcO80tPKA replays/commentary. Over and over again And send to all my liberal friends. "How do you have liberal friends", you say? I used to live in Charlotte.
