Ten million people have watched an MIT professor accidentally destroy the executive coaching industry.

He filmed the lecture once in January 2018 and died eighteen months later.

Executive coaches charge fifteen thousand dollars a session to teach a third of what he covered in one hour for free.

His name was Patrick Winston. He ran the MIT Artificial Intelligence Laboratory from 1972 to 1997 and wrote the AI textbook every computer science major in the world read for thirty years.

Every January for four decades, he gave a lecture called "How to Speak."

His entire framework fits on a napkin.

Do not read. Be in the image. Keep images simple. Eliminate clutter. Start with an empathetic connection. End with a punch line the audience can repeat over dinner. Never open with a joke. Never end with "thank you."

That last rule alone has probably cost the executive coaching industry a hundred million dollars.

"Your success in life will be determined largely by your ability to speak, your ability to write, and the quality of your ideas. In that order."

That is the actual opening line of the lecture. Winston believed it strongly enough to spend fifty years teaching computer scientists how to talk.

Founders spend $80,000 on an MBA and then hire a communications coach to teach them the same material Winston filmed once for free. Engineers write brilliant code and lose promotions to teammates who watched this lecture on the train.

The lecture is free on MIT OpenCourseWare. The textbook is free on his page.

Winston died in 2019. Almost none of the ten million viewers have actually implemented the four rules on the napkin.

The napkin is free. The willingness to actually use it in your next meeting is the entire edge.

I don’t think people realize how absurd this is. Scottish runner Josh Kerr just broke the mile world record in 3:42.66, an average speed of 16.2 mph. Most people couldn’t even briefly reach that speed, let alone sustain it for an entire mile.

63 million years ago, our primate ancestors lost the ability to make vitamin C.

A single gene called GULO mutated and stopped working. That gene codes for the enzyme L-gulonolactone oxidase. The enzyme that catalyzes the final step of vitamin C production from glucose.

Every other mammal still has a working copy. Dogs make vitamin C. Cats make it. Rats make it. Goats make it.

Goats produce roughly 13,000 mg of vitamin C per day. Under stress they produce even more.

The US government says you need 90 mg.

Humans, guinea pigs, fruit bats, and some primates are the only mammals on earth that cannot manufacture their own vitamin C. We depend entirely on what we eat.

Here is the part that should terrify every cardiologist.

Animals that make their own vitamin C do not get atherosclerosis. Ever.

Humans and guinea pigs do.

In 2014, Amazon launched the Fire Phone.

It flopped completely... $170 million written off, unsold inventory, one of the most public product failures in tech history.

During its development, the executive running the project showed Bezos a voice recognition feature buried in the software.

You could ask it for any song and it would start playing instantly.

Bezos stopped the meeting.

He wanted that technology pulled out of the phone entirely and built into something much bigger, a standalone device that sat in your home and responded to your voice from across the room.

He gave the team a fresh budget and told them to build it.

Four months after the Fire Phone launched and failed, Amazon released the Echo.

Bezos told the executive who ran both projects: "You can't, for one minute, feel bad about the Fire Phone. Promise me you won't lose a minute of sleep."

Hundreds of millions of Alexa devices are now in homes worldwide.

The Fire Phone didn't precede the success. It contained it.

"Big winners pay for so many experiments."

So the Thymus produces T cells. IL-15 is a T cell growth factor.

When the Thymus is removed, there is a 2x higher chance of dying earlier of all causes according to this report. These findings are consistent with the JAMA paper that shows when ALC is less than 1,500 (low T cells) longevity is decreased with increased mortality risk from all causes.

The data is consistent:

IL-15 is a T cell growth factor and they called T cells because of the T in Thymus. And IL-15 was ranked #1 by NCI and FDA to "cure" cancer as far back as 2007.

Now this report links the Thymus (which produces T cells) to longevity - consistent with the JAMA report that 52 million Americans suffer from low T cells, called lymphopenia.

IL-15 to treat cancer, enable longevity and to overcome sepsis - Immunotherapy 2.0. Stay tuned.

Are the dots connecting that ALC matters?

Ex-Tesla President just revealed Elon’s decision that changed everything...

Elon looked at their struggling online sales and asked one question:

"How many clicks does it take to buy a Domino's pizza?"

They pulled it up. 10 taps.

Tesla was at 64 clicks to buy a $120,000 car.

Elon's response:

"We are 64. Domino's is 10. Let's go to 10."

Then they ran the data on their 360,000 car configurations.

Customers were only buying two.

They cut it to two. Sales exploded.

The most expensive product in the room was the hardest to buy.

One comparison changed that forever.

Tesla's Optimus V3 robot hand looks to have been revealed in a new international patent published today.

The patent describes a tendon/cable-driven hand:
• Actuators in the forearm
• Each finger has 4 degrees of freedom
• The wrist has 2 degrees of freedom
• Tendon-driven system: 3 thin, flexible control cables (tendons) per finger run from forearm actuators, through the wrist and into the fingers.
• Advanced wrist routing: Cables switch from a lateral (horizontal) stack on the forearm side to a vertical stack on the hand side, plus a transition zone to minimize stretch, torque, friction, and crosstalk during yaw/pitch movements.
• Integrated control cable channels in the finger segments and precise routing (behind some joints, forward others) for selective bending.

The full filing is in the thread below if you want to read more about it:
