Let’s call this conscious tribalism. if there’s a chance that a certain fear might be based on real danger, file it away as a real fear, just in case, and even if you confirm later that a fear of yours has no basis, keep it with you, just in case. Now, with this Nazi reference, I’m finally back to where I was. But to do that requires brain software that’s skilled and practiced at coming up with new things, and school trains us on the exact opposite concept—to follow the leader, single-file, and to get really good at taking tests. Everyone is trying to optimize their ass-covering.”. We build a system all about interchangeable people because factories are based on interchangeable parts.”. What feels like personal principles might just be the general tenets of your tribe. The Earth was officially less than 6,000 years old, so if radiometric dating showed otherwise, it was a flawed technique, period. Just recently, an author named Tom Vail wrote a book called Grand Canyon: A Different View, in which he explains: Contrary to what is widely believed, radioactive dating has not proven the rocks of the Grand Canyon to be millions of years old. Burnet had figured it out. The great puzzle of fundamental theology had been to reconcile the large number of seemingly-very-old Earth features with the much shorter timeline of the Earth detailed in the Bible. Being a groundbreaker is just knowing that the ground wasn’t laid by anyone that impressive and so feeling no need to keep it intact. Which you can only do after you overcome those fears…which only happens if you experience changing and failing and realize that nothing bad happens. It’s fitting that this blog is called Wait But Why because the whole thing is a little like the grown-up version of the Why? If you want to see the lab mentality at work, just search for famous quotes of any prominent scientist and you’ll see each one of them expressing the fact that they don’t know shit. The thing that tantalized me is that this secret sauce is actually accessible to everyone and right there in front of us—if we can just wrap our heads around it. In math, we call givens “axioms,” and axioms are 100% true. Musk calls the cook’s way of thinking “reasoning by analogy” (as opposed to reasoning by first principles), which is a nice euphemism. What makes tribalism a good or bad thing depends on the tribe member and their relationship with the tribe. Your goal is to be less wrong.12. Browse the archive of articles on Nature. It’s been a long one, I know. The challenge with this last epiphany is to somehow figure out a way to lose respect for your own fear. When Oprah publicly recommends a book, that’s combining her abundant power of connection (she has a huge reach) and her abundant power of persuasion (people trust her) and directing them towards the goal of getting the book into the hands of thousands of people who would have otherwise never known about it. But for most of us, we just can’t do it. Once the cook finds the right recipe, he can put it in his catalog and use it for all future decisions on this matter. Through precise structural engineering, perovskite nanocrystals are co-assembled with other nanocrystal materials to form a range of binary and ternary perovskite-type superlattices that exhibit superfluorescence. Couple that concept with what another favorite writer of mine, James Clear, explained recently on his blog: In the 1960s, a creative performance researcher named George Land conducted a study of 1,600 five-year-olds and 98 percent of the children scored in the “highly creative” range. With that software bug in place, all further computations were moot. A newborn’s brain is a malleable ball of hardware clay, and its job upon being born is to quickly learn about whatever environment it’s been born into and start shaping itself into the optimal tool for survival in those circumstances. For most questions, the authority is the tribe, since the cook’s tribal dogma covers most standard decisions. While a scientist’s data-based opinions are only as strong as the evidence she has and inherently subject to change, tribal dogmatism is an exercise in faith, and with no data to be beholden to, blind tribe members believe what they believe with certainty. Fair. But then I came to understand, dark just means the absence of photons in the visible wavelength—400 to 700 nanometers. He looks at what data he has and seeks out what more he needs. Dogma is everywhere and comes in a thousand different varieties—but the format is generally the same: X is true because [authority] says so. There were enough theories kicking around reconciling geology with the verses of the Bible to today warrant a 15,000-word “Flood Geology” Wikipedia page. Without certainty, dogma has no power. 2) To understand why Musk is able to do what he’s doing. That’s what I think Steve Jobs meant all the times he said, “Stay hungry. A child’s instinct isn’t just to know what to do and not to do, she wants to understand the rules of her environment. Soul Clap: "We probably do step on each other's toes, but it couldn’t be any worse than Fleetwood Mac or The Stones" By Future Music Charlie Levine and Eli Goldstein's new album is founded on a passion for environmental and social activism He built himself a pair of wings he feels confident work just fine, but he can’t bring himself to jump off the cliff. And if you read about Elon Musk’s life, you can watch this software in action. When kids ask Why? But when you are the experiment, negative feedback isn’t a piece of new, helpful information—it’s an insult. Join 608,367 other humans and have new posts emailed to you. The internet was in the early stages of taking off and moving much faster than people had anticipated. Batteries had never been made cheaply enough to allow for a mass-market, long-range electric car because the cost of making a battery was simply too high. Discover new music on MTV. The musical theater scene in New York is a tribe. So when it comes to our brain software—our values, perceptions, belief systems, reasoning techniques—what are we learning during those key early years? But what all of these cooks have in common is their starting point is something that already exists. Take A Sneak Peak At The Movies Coming Out This Week (8/12) Thank you, Hollywood, for giving us so many Timothée Chalamet movies; Upcoming Movie Musicals We Can’t Wait To Watch In Theaters But Musk went back to first principles. Remember this MuskSpeak quote from earlier? If you play the Why? At the end of the flight, I closed the laptop, and when I opened it to keep working later that day, somehow WordPress had reverted to the version it had last time it saved and I lost everything I had done on the plane. What was in there was his still-burning desire to help the future of humanity. Especially since dogma has a powerful ally—the group. This is the path you chose—you’re an internet guy.”. V. Mane Fils Reports Full Year 2018 Financial Results - April 4, 2019 - Mane achieved group consolidated sales of € 1,253.2 million (+8.4%) in 2018 vs € 1,155.8 million in 2017, which translates to USD $1,479.0 million (+13.2% for the year 2018 vs USD $1,306.9 in 2017). There are all kinds of tech companies that build software. Reasoning from first principles is a hard thing to do in life, and Musk is a master at it. History, conventional wisdom, and his friends all said one thing, but his own software, reasoning upwards from first principles, said another—and he trusted his software. To get the results we want, we zoom in on the micro picture, sinking our teeth into our goal and honing in on it with our strategy loop. Much less tangible to us is the concept of how we reason. He said he thought the reason they could do so is that they had a fresh slate to work with. The question is, how did that set of songs come to be? We have a bunch of romantic words for the world’s chefs that sound impressive but are actually just a result of them having lost this respect. Americans are a tribe, of which Texans are a sub-tribe, of which Evangelical Christians in Amarillo, Texas is a sub-sub-tribe. When parents and teachers tell a kid to do XYZ and to simply obey, it’s like installing a piece of already-designed software in the kid’s head. At the same time, the inner you isn’t a statue—it’s a shifting, morphing sculpture whose innermost values change as time passes. And while this isn’t the most poetic way to think about our minds, I’m starting to believe that it’s one of those areas of life where MuskSpeak can serve us well—because thinking of a brain as a computer forces us to consider the distinction between our hardware and our software, a distinction we often fail to recognize. This new decision is now part of the automated routine—a new recipe is in the cookbook—and he’ll check in on it to make adjustments every once in a while or as new pertinent data comes in, the way he does for all parts of his software. And if the tenets of that church don’t truly resonate with you or reflect the current reality of the world—if it turns out that you’ve been working off of the wrong recipe—then whatever conclusions have been built on top of it will be just as wrong. Once things settled down, the Earth was no longer a perfect sphere—all the commotion had distorted the surface, bringing about mountains and valleys and caves down below, and the whole thing was littered with the fossils of the flood’s victims. It was to train people to be willing to work in the factory. Instead, we’re usually somewhere in the hazy middle—in the land of cooks.5. In 1681, English theologian Thomas Burnet published Sacred Theory of the Earth, in which he explained how geology worked. When the emperor struts out with his shoulder hair and his gut and his little white junk, the story only identifies two kinds of people: the mass of subjects, who all pretend they can see the clothes, and the kid, who just says that the dude is obviously naked. Referring to the aerospace industry, Musk said, “There’s a tremendous bias against taking risks. Epiphany #2 is the forbidden fruit, and Self-Loathing Cook has bitten it. As people age, the clay begins to harden and it becomes more difficult to change the way the brain operates. We discussed why scientists expect plenty of their experiments to fail. Physics is fundamentally governed by the progress of engineering. It takes some hard work, but eventually, the pathway brings him to a hypothesis. But the weird thing is, we weren’t born into a normal human world. That’s why I need to carve out just a little more time. That’s the work of a cook. So it’s sort of like—I’m more like the gardener, and then there are the flowers. If you’re in a tribe with a blind mentality of total certainty, you’ll probably see a look of horror. It’s not that Musk suggests that people are just computers—it’s that he sees people as computers on top of whatever else they are. If the website analytics stats on Chartbeat included a “Type of Geologist” demographic metric, I imagine that for Wait But Why readers, the breakdown would look something like this: It makes sense. Down the range a bit, you have more of a confident cook—someone with experience who gets the general gist of the recipe and then uses her skills and instincts to do it her own way. When people hear about those things, they think of you as a pro traveler and a bold adventurer—when all you really did is ditch the guidebook. You don’t know how to code your own software, so you install someone else’s. Second, it’s about our own well-being. No one talks about the “reasoning industry,” but we’re all part of it, and when it comes to chefs and cooks, it’s no different than any other industry. Some, though, held strong. All things, we assume, he was more or less born with. All the well-known sitcoms whose jokes you’re pretty sure you could have written when you were 14. Most people would have stuck with the Stanford program—because they had already told everyone about it and it would be weird to quit, because it was Stanford, because it was a more normal path, because it was safer, because the internet might be a fad, because what if he were 35 one day and was a failure with no money because he couldn’t get a good job without the right degree. But the more I learn about Musk and other people who seem to have superhuman powers—whether it be Steve Jobs, Albert Einstein, Henry Ford, Genghis Khan, Marie Curie, John Lennon, Ayn Rand,2 or Louis C.K.—the more I’m convinced that it’s their software, not their natural-born intelligence or talents, that makes them so rare and so effective. All the times you learn about what really goes on inside a company and find out that it’s totally disorganized and badly run. Right? Nous voudrions effectuer une description ici mais le site que vous consultez ne nous en laisse pas la possibilité. Australians are a tribe. Given: B = C + D Because otherwise, you look ahead, and it’s like “Oh it’s dark.” If you’re projecting to the future, and you’re saying “Wow, we’re gonna end up in some terrible situation,” that’s depressing. With conscious tribalism, the tribe member and his identity comes first. So…what’s the deal with us? I’m fascinated by those rare people in history who manage to dramatically change the world during their short time here, and I’ve always liked to study those people and read their biographies. When he looks at you, he sees a computer. Identifying one and adjusting it can strengthen the whole chain above and create a breakthrough in your life. Extra Post #2: The Deal With the Hyperloop And probably not that different from how you think. And a new one, written in 2017, about a whole new Elon company: SpaceX’s Big Fucking Rocket — The Full Story, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=suD1aBwwZfU, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MJHTY0gWOGw, Elon Musk: Tesla, SpaceX, and the Quest for a Fantastic Future, http://www.startalkradio.net/show/the-future-of-humanity-with-elon-musk/, http://www.cbsnews.com/news/tesla-and-spacex-elon-musks-industrial-empire/, https://www.khanacademy.org/talks-and-interviews/khan-academy-living-room-chats/v/elon-musk, http://www.esquire.com/news-politics/a16681/elon-musk-interview-1212/, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g9FD1UE6E1g, How to Pick a Career (That Actually Fits You), Why You Should Stop Caring What Other People Think. It makes logical sense that the more rigid and certain and dogmatic the tribe, the more likely it’ll be to attract blind tribe members. All Elon’s saying in the second quote is that being scared to start a company is the adult version of being scared of the dark. And I was like, wow, okay, it’s really small—it’s like 2% of what a rocket costs. Life can be much broader once you discover one simple fact. Those are her puzzle pieces, her building blocks, and she works her way upwards from there, using her experience, her instincts, and her taste buds. A family of plant guanylate-binding protein-like GTPases controls phase separation and assembly of condensates, thereby forming a circuit that regulates transcriptional responses to biotic stress. I think it comes down to three things. The 1966 Beatles deciding to stop being the world’s best cooks, ditching the typical songwriting styles of early-60s bands, including their own, and become music chefs, creating a bunch of new types of songs from scratch that no one had heard before.
