“The real problem of humanity is the following: we have Paleolithic emotions, medieval institutions, and godlike technology” - Edward O. Wilson harvardmagazine.com/2009/09/…

Incredible news. Potential turning point against the shape-shifting villain behind the global pandemic. In the multi-bn-year arms race between cells & viruses, this would be a historic step. sciencedaily.com/releases/20…

Shared a new AI prompt with the Lightmeter team: Immunity to Change Mapping. Helps surface why you’re stuck. I used it to unpack why I sometimes pick slower paths even when faster ones are clear. It came down to fear and identity. lightmeter.notion.site/Immun… #FounderLife #SelfWork

TIL: mirror life, made from right handed proteins and left handed sugars could coexist on earth as an alien ecosystem. Touchable but biologically invisible. In Thalidomide: one mirror version of the drug healed; the other harmed. Pasteur discovered via light bending left vs right
