Police on Sunday identified the man they say shot nine people, putting
an 8-year-old boy in critical condition, when he fired more than two
dozen bullets at families at a splash pad in the Detroit suburb of
Rochester Hills, Michigan, a city that has ranked among the safest in
the state and the country in recent years.Victims in the shooting
include an 8-year-old boy who is in critical condition after he was
shot in the head, CNN reported, as well as his 4-year-old brother who
was shot in the leg, 39-year-old mom with wounds to her abdomen and
leg and six other victims ranging in age from 30 to 78 who were also
shot but in stable condition.

Sensory Deprivation Alters Our Experience, Both of Body and Time

You have probably heard of sensory deprivation tanks. A number of
celebrities swear by them for relaxation, and they have steadily grown
in popularity over the past few decades. They work by minimizing
sensory inputs from the external world: The tank is filled with high
salinity water that allows the user to float freely on the surface;
the water is body temperature; earplugs are worn to reduce sound; and
the tank is usually situated in a dark room or enclosed space.There
are a couple reasons for this. First, while these experiences reduce
sensory inputs from outside the body, they increase users’
sensitivity to sensory inputs from inside the body, interpreted
through the process of interoception, including heart beat and
breathing rate. Thus, to label these experiences as ‘sensory
deprivation’ isn’t quite right. Second, ‘sensory deprivation’
carries negative connotations, where the user is deprived of something
without acquiring something new in return.

Biologist and bioengineer Donald E. Ingber doesn’t have time to
sleep. As the founding director of The Wyss Institute for Biologically
Inspired Engineering at Harvard University, finding time outside of
work hasn’t gotten easier with age. At 67, his morning still starts
at 5 a.m., running through a pile of emails that seems to grow larger
by the day.By lunch, he’s already revised the budget for a crucial
government grant and met with postdoctoral fellows regarding work on
various research projects. Ingber also deals with unexpected issues,
like immigration and political turbulence, that he never dreamed would
fall under his purview. Recently, when a scientist he hired from
Germany came with his wife and child and was turned away at Logan
Airport for having an Iranian passport, Ingber spent the morning
wrangling with the Harvard visa office, trying to get him back into
the country.

In fact, these animals also have a tiny body and store all their
internal organs in their limbs. “They’re all legs,” says Felipe
Barreto, an evolutionary biologist at Oregon State University.
“They’re kind of their own thing.” (Read how sea spiders
“breathe” through their legs.)Instead, they meticulously glue
their eggs to a rock or other substrate at the bottom of the ocean.
For two days, “the male just kind of walks around the egg mass and
seems to be grooming it,” says study leader Amy Moran, a marine
physiological ecologist at the University of Hawai'i at Mānoa.

A present father can also provide unmatched benefits for the kids they
are raising. "Children who grow up with invested fathers have better
social, emotional, and academic outcomes than children without such
fathers," says Lee Gettler, a biological anthropologist and director
of the Hormones, Health, and Human Behavior lab at the University of
Notre Dame."I and other researchers have consistently found that
caring for and spending time with one’s children is associated with
emotional benefits for all parents, and especially for dads," says
Katherine Nelson-Coffey, a behavioral scientist, researcher, and the
director of the Social Connection & Positive Psychology lab at Arizona
State University.

The United States and G-7 announced a slate of new economic
punishments against Russia, adding to existing imposed sanctions in
response to the invasion of Ukraine. Yet despite it all, the Russian
economy is expected to grow this year at a rate of 3.2 percent,
according to the International Monetary Fund (IMF)—compared to the
2.7 percent growth forecast for the United States. Russia’s relative
economic success comes seemingly as the result of a decision to orient
the Russian economy toward supporting the military—an intertwining
that could intensify under Russia’s new defense minister, and
economic intellectual, Andrei Belousov.

To read the forthcoming memoir by the country’s former top
infectious disease expert, “On Call: A Doctor’s Journey in Public
Service,” a copy of which was obtained by STAT, is to get a sense of
his finesse while advising seven presidents. He strove, he writes, to
speak with complete candor and stay out of politics, while remaining
strategic in pushing for policies he considered vital to public
health.He maneuvered for more HIV funding in the Reagan
administration; pushed George H.W. Bush to expand access to
experimental AIDS medicines; worked with Bill Clinton to set up the
National Institutes of Health’s Vaccine Research Center; and teamed
up with George W. Bush, on whom he lavishes particularly effusive
praise, to set up the global HIV medicine initiative PEPFAR and
several biodefense efforts.

As the Boston Celtics have romped through the N.B.A. regular season
and playoffs, Jaylen Brown, one the team’s two young star forwards,
has been asked, many times, to expound on the team’s success. He has
usually given a variation of the same answer. It’s a matter of
“mind-set,” he said. He had told his teammates to “harness the
mind.” During Game Two of the Finals, against the Dallas Mavericks,
he wore a microphone, and the television broadcast showed clips of him
offering encouragement to his teammates between plays. “Embrace the
moment,” he said. “Breathe into it. Accept it. Don’t run from
it.” After the Celtics won the game, taking a two-games-to-nothing
lead in the series, Brown said he would try to “trick your mind”
into thinking that Boston was down 2–0, not up. “The mind is a
powerful thing,” he said, more than once, during an interview on
ESPN.George Orwell once decried the “invasion of one’s mind by
ready-made phrases.” Then again, Orwell was never named as the
N.B.A. Eastern Conference Finals M.V.P. Brown has an intellectual
bent—he famously took a graduate-level classe as a freshman at the
University of California, Berkeley, and during his time on the Celtics
he has also held a fellowship at M.I.T. Still, the language he uses to
describe the mental side of the game is probably more common in locker
rooms than in the halls of academia. He talks about focus and
confidence and harnessing one’s competitive drive. Pain is mental.
Experience is the best teacher. Champions move on quickly, from their
successes and their defeats.

The just-concluded elections for the European Parliament have some of
the character of lion’s-mouth communication on a continental scale.
The European Parliament is, like the Venetian Senate, mostly a
pro-forma talking shop with limited power: actual political power
still resides in the national governments, while the power to initiate
and implement all those European rules and decrees with which
“Brussels” supposedly encumbers its members—such as classifying
bananas according to how bendy they are—remains largely in the hands
of the bureaucrats and technocrats of the European Commission.Yet the
election results have meaning, and they have been cast, rather too
narrowly but understandably, as another victory for the extreme
right—a victory particularly noxious in France and Germany, where
more or less openly neo-fascist parties won startlingly large shares
of the vote. In France, the R.N., or Rassemblement National (formerly
the Front National), won the most seats, under the guidance of Marine
Le Pen, the daughter of the movement’s notorious antisemitic
founder, Jean-Marie Le Pen. That outcome, though not entirely
unanticipated, led President Emmanuel Macron to dissolve the National
Assembly and call for new parliamentary elections, which will be held
in two rounds, later this month and then in July.

Democrats have spent the past year talking much more about the
prospect of a Donald Trump victory than about their own. The
relentless focus on Trump is understandable, but it has obscured a
central reality of the 2024 election: Democrats have a real chance to
sweep the presidency, House, and Senate. And if they do, their
congressional majority would likely be more cohesive and progressive
than during President Joe Biden’s first two years in
office.Biden’s deficit in the polls is much smaller than the
party’s panic suggests and has narrowed since Trump’s felony
convictions. Democrats need to flip only a few seats to recapture the
House. Holding the Senate won’t be easy, but thanks to the
retirements of a pair of maverick Democrats, even a small majority
could open a path to substantial legislative achievements such as the
passage of a comprehensive voting-rights bill, a federal guarantee for
abortion rights, lower drug prices, and an expanded social safety net.

That's why McCourtâthe former owner of the LA Dodgers who acquired
most of his wealth through real estateâannounced last month that he
would be mounting a bid to purchase the app from its embattled Chinese
owner Bytedance. Soon after President Joe Biden signed a law forcing
the company to divest or face a nationwide ban, McCourt voiced his
interest. Through his Project Liberty initiative, McCourt has begun
assembling what he calls a "people's bid" bringing together
foundations, investors, and others who share his vision of a more fair
and open web.That vision centers around the idea that closed platforms
like Facebook and X (formerly Twitter) hold too much power over what
we see online. When Project Liberty was formed in 2021, it started
creating an open protocol called the Decentralized Social Networking
Protocol, or DSNP, as a remedy.

McLarenâ™s Artura Spider Hybrid Is All Performance, and All Party

McLaren doesn’t even rate fully electric steering as pure enough,
and the Artura’s precision feel is undoubtedly helped by an
old-school hydraulic setup. Apparently, it’s almost identical to the
steering configuration in the 600 LT, which is nothing less than one
of the greatest-handling cars ever made.Improvements in the engine
mapping have increased the overall power output to 690 brake
horsepower, a rise of 20 bhp over Artura v1.0. Rather than a 90-degree
V, the cylinders sit at a 120-degree angle, which reduces pressure
losses in the exhaust. The twin turbos sit within in a “hot vee”
configuration, which means they can spin faster with helpful
consequences for throttle response.

Why Employees Who Work Across Silos Get Burned Out

When employees collaborate across silos, there are numerous benefits
for organizations. But the employees who do this critical work —
also known as boundary spanners or network brokers — may end up
overwhelmed, burned out, and can even develop abusive behavior toward
their fellow employees. Research shows why this can happen, and
suggests three key strategies companies can use to mitigate any
negative effects: strategically integrating cross-silo collaboration
into formal roles, providing adequate resources, and developing
check-in mechanisms and opportunities to disengage.

The Art of Asking Smarter Questions

[[link removed]}&lead=419599&emailid=19336&nl=daily]
With organizations of all sorts facing increased urgency and
unpredictability, being able to ask smart questions has become key.
But unlike lawyers, doctors, and psychologists, business professionals
are not formally trained on what kinds of questions to ask when
approaching a problem. They must learn as they go. In their research
and consulting, the authors have seen that certain kinds of questions
have gained resonance across the business world. In a three-year
project they asked executives to brainstorm about the decisions
they’ve faced and the kinds of inquiry they’ve pursued. In this
article they share what they’ve learned and offer a practical
framework for the five types of questions to ask during strategic
decision-making: investigative, speculative, productive, interpretive,
and subjective. By attending to each, leaders and teams can become
more likely to cover all the areas that need to be explored, and
they’ll surface information and options they might otherwise have
missed.

Zelnick had started doing stand-up on the side years earlier while
working in corporate strategy at Viacom, but he enrolled in a Stanford
MBA program when the pandemic shut down live entertainment. Now, in
the break between his first and second years of business school, he
wanted to dive back in.He and a friend thought producing stand-up
shows would be the best way to do comedy while remaining solvent. But
their first effort, hosted in a barber shop, left them paying the
property owner half the revenue. So over the summer they leased a
space on Manhattan's Lower East Side and named their new club after a
hard seltzer brand Zelnick's cousin had started--in exchange for the
beverage startup covering most of the rent. Thus was born Sesh Comedy.

The surge in travel is evidenced by the fact that passport
applications in the United States have increased by almost 10
percent YOY in 2023. Last year, more than 24 million people applied
for U.S passports - an all-time high increasing by 77.5 percent over
the last decade - but the process remains slow and complex. The
chaotic and restrictive state of the industry is being addressed by
the creative introduction of AI to simplify the processes and cut our
biases. Boalt, alongside his co-founder Steven Fox, built HelloGov as
an AI-powered solution. HelloGov utilizes its proprietary AI tech to
vet every application, ensuring it is poised for first-time approval.
It also gives users access to a marketplace of vetted, verified, and
registered couriers, offering them the freedom to choose their own
courier. The AI also helps couriers get registered with passport
agencies across the country while educating them on the ins and outs
of the courier business.

according to the annual Demographia International Housing

housing prices, relative to incomes, are having a distinctly
feudalizing impact on our home state of California, where the primary

Every business founder wishes that he could predict whether his idea
could be the "next big thing," before he spent his life savings and
years of energy on it. Investors, on the other hand, typically
don't even look very hard at the product or service but prefer to
evaluate first the business owner, and secondly the business plan,
before really looking at the solution.I define these products and
services as "solutions" (customers buy solutions to a problem), but
Guy Kawasaki more generically calls them causes, meaning any new idea,
company, or service. Yet we can all agree that the quality of the
solution or cause is very important, and there are attributes that
reduce the business risk and make it more likely a success in the
marketplace.

The greatest stories start with imperfection. Something goes wrong --
usually in a dramatic fashion -- followed by a roller coaster of ups
and downs until the recovery and eventual happy or hilarious ending.
Perfect stories, where everything goes smoothly, aren't stories at
all. They're a lecture.Imperfection, in the dictionary, means a flaw,
and words related to imperfection are weakness, inadequacy,
defect, and deform. Perfection in the dictionary means completeness,
supreme excellence. It's not hard to see which one prefers to strive
for.

The Lego brick might be the most popular and beloved toy in the world.
It's hard to imagine that when the Lego Group, founded by Ole Kirk
Kristiansen, first started making toys in 1932, there were no plastic
bricks. Kristiansen, a carpenter by trade, started making wooden toys
with the pieces left over from the houses he would
build. Eventually, the toys proved to be a much better business
than the houses, and Kristiansen changed the name of his company to
Lego, a combination of the Danish words "Leg Got," which means "play
well." It wasn't until 1958 that the company patented and introduced
what we now know as the Lego brick. Even today, the brick remains the
essential building block of what the company calls the Lego System of
Play. That, however, doesn't mean the company isn't busy thinking of
what comes next. There is an entire secret lab dedicated to doing just
that.

neuroscientist and Stanford professor David Eagleman. His insights
on how the human brain operates, particularly the key element that
makes the 10,000-hour rule effective, shed light on how
humans master new skills. But before diving into it, let's explore
how our brains operate and what makes this information relevant.When
discussing the human brain's ability to adapt and how it molds itself
based on what we spend most of our time doing, Eagleman introduced a
relevant concept--the idea of our brain as dedicated real estate. In
short, the tasks we dedicate the most time to will ultimately occupy
the largest brain real estate as stronger neural connections are
made in those areas.

Moore's law is already pretty fast. It holds that computer chips pack
in twice as many transistors every two years or so, producing major
jumps in speed and efficiency. But the computing demands of the
deep-learning era are growing even faster than thatâat a pace that is
likely not sustainable. The International Energy Agency predicts that
artificial intelligence will consume 10 times as much power in 2026 as
it did in 2023, and that data centers in that year will use as much
energy as Japan. "The amount of [computing power] that AI needs
doubles every three months," said Nick Harris, founder and CEO of the
computing-hardware company Lightmatterâfar faster than Moore's law
predicts. "It's going to break companies and economies."One of the
most promising ways forward involves processing information not with
trusty electrons, which have dominated computing for over 50 years,
but instead using the flow of photons, minuscule packets of light.
Recent results suggest that, for certain computational tasks
fundamental to modern artificial intelligence, light-based "optical
computers" may offer an advantage.

Police on Sunday identified the man they say shot nine people, putting
an 8-year-old boy in critical condition, when he fired more than two
dozen bullets at families at a splash pad in the Detroit suburb of
Rochester Hills, Michigan, a city that has ranked among the safest in
the state and the country in recent years.Victims in the shooting
include an 8-year-old boy who is in critical condition after he was
shot in the head, CNN reported, as well as his 4-year-old brother who
was shot in the leg, 39-year-old mom with wounds to her abdomen and
leg and six other victims ranging in age from 30 to 78 who were also
shot but in stable condition.

Sensory Deprivation Alters Our Experience, Both of Body and Time

You have probably heard of sensory deprivation tanks. A number of
celebrities swear by them for relaxation, and they have steadily grown
in popularity over the past few decades. They work by minimizing
sensory inputs from the external world: The tank is filled with high
salinity water that allows the user to float freely on the surface;
the water is body temperature; earplugs are worn to reduce sound; and
the tank is usually situated in a dark room or enclosed space.There
are a couple reasons for this. First, while these experiences reduce
sensory inputs from outside the body, they increase users’
sensitivity to sensory inputs from inside the body, interpreted
through the process of interoception, including heart beat and
breathing rate. Thus, to label these experiences as ‘sensory
deprivation’ isn’t quite right. Second, ‘sensory deprivation’
carries negative connotations, where the user is deprived of something
without acquiring something new in return.

In fact, these animals also have a tiny body and store all their
internal organs in their limbs. “They’re all legs,” says Felipe
Barreto, an evolutionary biologist at Oregon State University.
“They’re kind of their own thing.” (Read how sea spiders
“breathe” through their legs.)Instead, they meticulously glue
their eggs to a rock or other substrate at the bottom of the ocean.
For two days, “the male just kind of walks around the egg mass and
seems to be grooming it,” says study leader Amy Moran, a marine
physiological ecologist at the University of Hawai'i at Mānoa.

The United States and G-7 announced a slate of new economic
punishments against Russia, adding to existing imposed sanctions in
response to the invasion of Ukraine. Yet despite it all, the Russian
economy is expected to grow this year at a rate of 3.2 percent,
according to the International Monetary Fund (IMF)—compared to the
2.7 percent growth forecast for the United States. Russia’s relative
economic success comes seemingly as the result of a decision to orient
the Russian economy toward supporting the military—an intertwining
that could intensify under Russia’s new defense minister, and
economic intellectual, Andrei Belousov.

To read the forthcoming memoir by the country’s former top

his finesse while advising seven presidents. He strove, he writes, to
speak with complete candor and stay out of politics, while remaining
strategic in pushing for policies he considered vital to public
health.He maneuvered for more HIV funding in the Reagan
administration; pushed George H.W. Bush to expand access to
experimental AIDS medicines; worked with Bill Clinton to set up the
National Institutes of Health’s Vaccine Research Center; and teamed
up with George W. Bush, on whom he lavishes particularly effusive
praise, to set up the global HIV medicine initiative PEPFAR and

As the Boston Celtics have romped through the N.B.A. regular season
and playoffs, Jaylen Brown, one the team’s two young star forwards,
has been asked, many times, to expound on the team’s success. He has
usually given a variation of the same answer. It’s a matter of
“mind-set,” he said. He had told his teammates to “harness the
mind.” During Game Two of the Finals, against the Dallas Mavericks,
he wore a microphone, and the television broadcast showed clips of him
offering encouragement to his teammates between plays. “Embrace the
moment,” he said. “Breathe into it. Accept it. Don’t run from
it.” After the Celtics won the game, taking a two-games-to-nothing
lead in the series, Brown said he would try to “trick your mind”
into thinking that Boston was down 2–0, not up. “The mind is a
powerful thing,” he said, more than once, during an interview on
ESPN.George Orwell once decried the “invasion of one’s mind by
ready-made phrases.” Then again, Orwell was never named as the
N.B.A. Eastern Conference Finals M.V.P. Brown has an intellectual
bent—he famously took a graduate-level classe as a freshman at the
University of California, Berkeley, and during his time on the Celtics
he has also held a fellowship at M.I.T. Still, the language he uses to
describe the mental side of the game is probably more common in locker
rooms than in the halls of academia. He talks about focus and
confidence and harnessing one’s competitive drive. Pain is mental.
Experience is the best teacher. Champions move on quickly, from their
successes and their defeats.

The just-concluded elections for the European Parliament have some of
the character of lion’s-mouth communication on a continental scale.
The European Parliament is, like the Venetian Senate, mostly a
pro-forma talking shop with limited power: actual political power
still resides in the national governments, while the power to initiate
and implement all those European rules and decrees with which
“Brussels” supposedly encumbers its members—such as classifying
bananas according to how bendy they are—remains largely in the hands
of the bureaucrats and technocrats of the European Commission.Yet the
election results have meaning, and they have been cast, rather too
narrowly but understandably, as another victory for the extreme
right—a victory particularly noxious in France and Germany, where
more or less openly neo-fascist parties won startlingly large shares
of the vote. In France, the R.N., or Rassemblement National (formerly
the Front National), won the most seats, under the guidance of Marine
Le Pen, the daughter of the movement’s notorious antisemitic
founder, Jean-Marie Le Pen. That outcome, though not entirely
unanticipated, led President Emmanuel Macron to dissolve the National
Assembly and call for new parliamentary elections, which will be held
in two rounds, later this month and then in July.

Democrats have spent the past year talking much more about the
prospect of a Donald Trump victory than about their own. The
relentless focus on Trump is understandable, but it has obscured a
central reality of the 2024 election: Democrats have a real chance to
sweep the presidency, House, and Senate. And if they do, their
congressional majority would likely be more cohesive and progressive
than during President Joe Biden’s first two years in
office.Biden’s deficit in the polls is much smaller than the
party’s panic suggests and has narrowed since Trump’s felony
convictions. Democrats need to flip only a few seats to recapture the
House. Holding the Senate won’t be easy, but thanks to the
retirements of a pair of maverick Democrats, even a small majority
could open a path to substantial legislative achievements such as the
passage of a comprehensive voting-rights bill, a federal guarantee for
abortion rights, lower drug prices, and an expanded social safety net.

the company to divest or face a nationwide ban, McCourt voiced his
interest. Through his Project Liberty initiative, McCourt has begun
assembling what he calls a "people's bid" bringing together
foundations, investors, and others who share his vision of a more fair

like Facebook and X (formerly Twitter) hold too much power over what
we see online. When Project Liberty was formed in 2021, it started
creating an open protocol called the Decentralized Social Networking
Protocol, or DSNP, as a remedy.

McLarenâ™s Artura Spider Hybrid Is All Performance, and All Party

McLaren doesn’t even rate fully electric steering as pure enough,
and the Artura’s precision feel is undoubtedly helped by an
old-school hydraulic setup. Apparently, it’s almost identical to the
steering configuration in the 600 LT, which is nothing less than one
of the greatest-handling cars ever made.Improvements in the engine
mapping have increased the overall power output to 690 brake
horsepower, a rise of 20 bhp over Artura v1.0. Rather than a 90-degree
V, the cylinders sit at a 120-degree angle, which reduces pressure
losses in the exhaust. The twin turbos sit within in a “hot vee”
configuration, which means they can spin faster with helpful
consequences for throttle response.

Why Employees Who Work Across Silos Get Burned Out

When employees collaborate across silos, there are numerous benefits
for organizations. But the employees who do this critical work —
also known as boundary spanners or network brokers — may end up
overwhelmed, burned out, and can even develop abusive behavior toward
their fellow employees. Research shows why this can happen, and
suggests three key strategies companies can use to mitigate any
negative effects: strategically integrating cross-silo collaboration
into formal roles, providing adequate resources, and developing
check-in mechanisms and opportunities to disengage.

The Art of Asking Smarter Questions

[[link removed]}&lead=419599&emailid=19336&nl=daily]
[[link removed]}&lead=419599&emailid=19336&nl=daily]
With organizations of all sorts facing increased urgency and
unpredictability, being able to ask smart questions has become key.
But unlike lawyers, doctors, and psychologists, business professionals
are not formally trained on what kinds of questions to ask when
approaching a problem. They must learn as they go. In their research
and consulting, the authors have seen that certain kinds of questions
have gained resonance across the business world. In a three-year
project they asked executives to brainstorm about the decisions
they’ve faced and the kinds of inquiry they’ve pursued. In this
article they share what they’ve learned and offer a practical
framework for the five types of questions to ask during strategic
decision-making: investigative, speculative, productive, interpretive,
and subjective. By attending to each, leaders and teams can become
more likely to cover all the areas that need to be explored, and
they’ll surface information and options they might otherwise have
missed.

Zelnick had started doing stand-up on the side years earlier while
working in corporate strategy at Viacom, but he enrolled in a Stanford
MBA program when the pandemic shut down live entertainment. Now, in
the break between his first and second years of business school, he
wanted to dive back in.He and a friend thought producing stand-up
shows would be the best way to do comedy while remaining solvent. But
their first effort, hosted in a barber shop, left them paying the
property owner half the revenue. So over the summer they leased a
space on Manhattan's Lower East Side and named their new club after a
hard seltzer brand Zelnick's cousin had started--in exchange for the
beverage startup covering most of the rent. Thus was born Sesh Comedy.

The surge in travel is evidenced by the fact that passport
applications in the United States have increased by almost 10
percent YOY in 2023. Last year, more than 24 million people applied
for U.S passports - an all-time high increasing by 77.5 percent over
the last decade - but the process remains slow and complex. The
chaotic and restrictive state of the industry is being addressed by
the creative introduction of AI to simplify the processes and cut our
biases. Boalt, alongside his co-founder Steven Fox, built HelloGov as
an AI-powered solution. HelloGov utilizes its proprietary AI tech to
vet every application, ensuring it is poised for first-time approval.
It also gives users access to a marketplace of vetted, verified, and
registered couriers, offering them the freedom to choose their own
courier. The AI also helps couriers get registered with passport
agencies across the country while educating them on the ins and outs
of the courier business.

according to the annual Demographia International Housing
Affordability report, which was produced by Chapman University in
California and the Frontier Center for Public Policy in Canada.“High
housing prices, relative to incomes, are having a distinctly
feudalizing impact on our home state of California, where the primary

Every business founder wishes that he could predict whether his idea
could be the "next big thing," before he spent his life savings and
years of energy on it. Investors, on the other hand, typically
don't even look very hard at the product or service but prefer to
evaluate first the business owner, and secondly the business plan,
before really looking at the solution.I define these products and
services as "solutions" (customers buy solutions to a problem), but
Guy Kawasaki more generically calls them causes, meaning any new idea,
company, or service. Yet we can all agree that the quality of the
solution or cause is very important, and there are attributes that
reduce the business risk and make it more likely a success in the
marketplace.

The greatest stories start with imperfection. Something goes wrong --
usually in a dramatic fashion -- followed by a roller coaster of ups
and downs until the recovery and eventual happy or hilarious ending.
Perfect stories, where everything goes smoothly, aren't stories at
all. They're a lecture.Imperfection, in the dictionary, means a flaw,
and words related to imperfection are weakness, inadequacy,
defect, and deform. Perfection in the dictionary means completeness,
supreme excellence. It's not hard to see which one prefers to strive

The Lego brick might be the most popular and beloved toy in the world.
It's hard to imagine that when the Lego Group, founded by Ole Kirk
Kristiansen, first started making toys in 1932, there were no plastic
bricks. Kristiansen, a carpenter by trade, started making wooden toys
with the pieces left over from the houses he would
build. Eventually, the toys proved to be a much better business
than the houses, and Kristiansen changed the name of his company to
Lego, a combination of the Danish words "Leg Got," which means "play
well." It wasn't until 1958 that the company patented and introduced
what we now know as the Lego brick. Even today, the brick remains the
essential building block of what the company calls the Lego System of
Play. That, however, doesn't mean the company isn't busy thinking of
what comes next. There is an entire secret lab dedicated to doing just
that.

neuroscientist and Stanford professor David Eagleman. His insights
on how the human brain operates, particularly the key element that
makes the 10,000-hour rule effective, shed light on how
humans master new skills. But before diving into it, let's explore
how our brains operate and what makes this information relevant.When
discussing the human brain's ability to adapt and how it molds itself
based on what we spend most of our time doing, Eagleman introduced a
relevant concept--the idea of our brain as dedicated real estate. In
short, the tasks we dedicate the most time to will ultimately occupy
the largest brain real estate as stronger neural connections are
made in those areas.

Moore's law is already pretty fast. It holds that computer chips pack
in twice as many transistors every two years or so, producing major
jumps in speed and efficiency. But the computing demands of the
deep-learning era are growing even faster than thatâat a pace that is
likely not sustainable. The International Energy Agency predicts that
artificial intelligence will consume 10 times as much power in 2026 as
it did in 2023, and that data centers in that year will use as much
energy as Japan. "The amount of [computing power] that AI needs
doubles every three months," said Nick Harris, founder and CEO of the
computing-hardware company Lightmatterâfar faster than Moore's law
predicts. "It's going to break companies and economies."One of the
most promising ways forward involves processing information not with
trusty electrons, which have dominated computing for over 50 years,
but instead using the flow of photons, minuscule packets of light.
Recent results suggest that, for certain computational tasks
fundamental to modern artificial intelligence, light-based "optical
computers" may offer an advantage.
