Childhoods of exceptional people
[[link removed]}&lead=419599&emailid=206334&nl=daily
start with one of those insights that are as obvious as they are easy
to forget: if you want to master something, you should study the
highest achievements of your field. If you want to learn writing, read
great writers, etc.

But this is not what parents usually do when they think about how to
educate their kids. The default for a parent is rather to imitate

would we learn if we studied the highest achievements?

Cannes bans cruise ships with more than 1,000 passengers starting next

The French city of Cannes is banning cruise ships carrying over 1,000
passengers from its harbor starting next year. The decision is part of
a wider backlash against overtourism. City officials also cited
concerns about pollution. Larger ships must use smaller boats to
transfer visitors to the port. The new rules limit daily
disembarkations to 6,000 passengers. Cannes is seeking to balance
tourism's economic benefits while managing growing crowds. Cruise ship
companies say such measures are counterproductive. Nearby Nice and
other European cities have also introduced cruise ship restrictions
recently.

Two interrelated fears that have caused mounting public alarm with
respect to the Trump Administration involve unchecked executive power
and the erosion of the rule of law. These worries have intensified in
debates about the legality of President Trumps decision to bomb
Iranian nuclear facilities more than a week into Israels war against
Iran. Members of both houses of Congress had introduced resolutions to
try to prevent Trump from taking such military action without its
authorization. But the energy that some lawmakers had mustered for a
rare attempt to assert Congresss constitutional power against Trump
seemed to dissipate, at least while they expected a ceasefire between
Israel and Iran to hold.
