If you fly people around for a living then one of the most common emergencies you deal with is passengers in medical distress.
When someone is having a serious issue it becomes a team effort for the crew and our support staff on the ground.

Samuel Johnson wrote "Knowledge is of two kinds. We know a subject ourselves, or we know where we can find information upon it." I'm curious what the balance of these are is as a function of age, and what it was historically when information was not as widely or quickly available.
It’s widely known (and, I think, pretty uncontroversial) that learning requires effort — specifically, if you don’t have to work at getting the knowledge, it won’t stick.
Even if an LLM could be trusted to give you correct information 100% of the time, it would be an inferior method of learning it.

Relying on ChatGPT to teach you about a topic leaves you with shallower knowledge than Googling and reading about it, according to new research that compared what more than 10,000 people knew after using one method or the other.

This may be Trump's perfect social media post. A true work of art. He confirms:
✅He personally directs criminal investigations.
✅He is targeting opponents.
✅Epstein "records" exist and he knows the contents.
Bonus points for connecting it to investigation of his fondness for Putin.👀

People often have trouble reconciling the complicated nature of individuals and ideas. We see this in American politics, where tribalism and ideological purity rule the day. However, many things exist not as black and white, but as shades of gray.

I met Jim Watson a few times but did not know him well. However, I was greatly influenced by his book “The Double Helix”. He was a complicated human being with some very, very bad features, but some good contributions.
What follows is my personal perspective.

I seriously wonder how many people relate to the Marie Antoinette comment.
Chris Coons: "He's not listening to concerns about lowering costs. Instead he's worried about decorating his new Marie Antoinette ballroom or engaging in trying to figure out how to get his name on more statues and stadiums, or he's sitting across the table in the Oval Office with authoritarians."
