Verse 27 of Shri Aadi Shankara's Saundaryalahari
Prayer
"Let my every word be a prayer to Thee, Every movement of my hands a ritual gesture to Thee, Every step I take a circumambulation of Thy image, Every morsel I eat a rite of sacrifice to Thee(cont'd)

Like ancient Chinese medicine when a retainer would be paid to doctor in times of health, and not paid in times of sickness.
Taxes for public good should be the same.
Insurance should PREVENT fires, sickness and death.
The Insurance industry is perverse. Fire insurance pays you (hopefully) after your house burns down; Life insurance pays next of kin, after you die; Health insurance pays out after your sick.
How will the Insurance cover the TRILLIONS in SoCal property losses?
My heart goes out to all of those who have lost their homes in SoCal.
If industrial revolution made human strength much more irrelevant, and artificial intelligence revolution might make human intelligence much more irrelevant, what becomes the next more relevant thing?
New drugs could spell an end to the world’s obesity epidemic. The long-term effects must be carefully studied—but the excitement is justified https://t.co/DwtSGYKqx6👇
Interesting how much of this is hidden teams with genius creators, and how much individual output relies on uninterrupted teams and/or networks....
But not just people, markets, tech, etc...
How much does context make the form?
What are some good examples of creators who "went on a run" of unbroken generation-level genius output?
- Orson Welles 1931-40
- Stan Lee, Jack Kirby & Marvel artists 62-64
- The Beatles 63-69
- Jobs & Ive 97-2011
- Pixar 95-2010
- Lucas / Spielberg 75-85
- Bob Dylan 1964-66

@orthonormalist@andreablomkvist threading on here because an idea of such genesis must not get lost in twxtter wormhole.
have done many searches to try unpack heuristics the blind use for navigation of familiar spaces/objects, and where that connects with memory palaces.
Barry John's famous words to Gareth Edwards are remembered as "You throw it, I'll catch it".
In reality, they spoke Welsh with each other and he actually said, "Twla di fe, ddala i fe". 🏉
He floated across the field with ease.
Nos da Barry John 🏴
