You'll be shocked at how intelligent you become through curiosity & humbleness.
They don't announce it, but Academia promotes arrogance in knowledge accumulation.
You realize, knowledge accumulation doesn't make you smart if you're acquire it through a narcissistic perspective.
🚨🗣️ Luis Enrique on Fulfilling His Halftime Rolex Promise:
“The way Arteta set up his team to only defend was making me go nuts. So at halftime, I told my players to continue to be patient and keep trying. I said if they do this and win, that I would buy all of them a Rolex wrist watch like my own and I bought it”
2/ I had a long debate w/D. Kahneman abt digital books. He was excited by the Kindle; I thought it was useless (The Black Swan was shown by Bezos in the Kindle press conf and I was horrified).
K kept going until I cited the book by Luria on the mnemonist & he ended up conceded as he recalled the method of the loci.
Rory Sutherland made a quietly devastating observation about one of the biggest societal shifts of the last 50 years.
He said the move to the double-income household started as an option but quickly became an obligation. The big winners? Governments (twice as many people to tax) and property owners (now two salaries were needed to buy a house). The big loser? The family itself, which lost roughly 35 hours of discretionary leisure time per week — with no real increase in living standards, because the extra money was largely soaked up by higher house prices and taxes.
It’s a classic example of how something that begins as liberation can quietly turn into a new form of constraint.
Longitudinal studies on happiness and time use (including data from the American Time Use Survey and OECD reports) show that the sharp rise in dual-earner households correlated with stagnant or declining leisure time for families, while subjective well-being metrics for parents have not risen in line with the additional income — supporting the idea that much of the gain was captured by housing costs and taxation rather than improved quality of life.
It’s a reminder to look carefully at changes that society presents as inevitable progress.
What do you think — has the double-income model delivered more freedom or more pressure for most families?

Semakin kurang kita dedahkan diri kita di media sosial, semakin kurang kita perlu berikan justifikasi kepada orang lain tentang hidup kita, tindakan kita, pilihan kita. Semakin kurang orang memerhati dan menilai diri kita. Bagi saya inilah kebebasan yang sebenar.
