TIL a man in Nebraska is breeding red cows and sending them to Israel in hopes of a pure red heifer being born there; such an event will allegedly prompt Jews to build a Third Temple, which fundamentalist Christians believe will usher in Jesus’ Second Coming.

You did it. You crazy son of a bitch you did it.

Neat.

When you get sick of the world not ending so you decide to take matters into your own hands.

Survival of the richest: the wealthy are plotting to leave us behind

Last year, I got invited to a super-deluxe private resort to deliver a keynote speech to what I assumed would be a hundred or so investment bankers.

After I arrived, I was ushered into what I thought was the green room. But instead of being wired with a microphone or taken to a stage, I just sat there at a plain round table as my audience was brought to me: five super-wealthy guys — yes, all men — from the upper echelon of the hedge fund world. After a bit of small talk, I realized they had no interest in the information I had prepared about the future of technology. 

They had come with questions of their own.They started out innocuously enough. Ethereum or bitcoin? Is quantum computing a real thing? Slowly but surely, however, they edged into their real topics of concern.Which region will be less impacted by the coming climate crisis: New Zealand or Alaska? Is Google really building Ray Kurzweil a home for his brain, and will his consciousness live through the transition, or will it die and be reborn as a whole new one? Finally, the CEO of a brokerage house explained that he had nearly completed building his own underground bunker system and asked, “How do I maintain authority over my security force after the event?”

rich people are fucking terrifying

This is the same thing Jeff Bezos and Elon Musk want, an escape plan from the crisis capitalism created

This has to be one of the best articles I’ve read in a long time! An important read

a 500 db screech would not deafen you.

decibels are a logarithmic scale, so going up by 10 means it’s 10 times stronger. 

So 200db is not twice as much as 100db, it’s TEN BILLION TIMES louder. 

At 150db your eardrums would burst. At 185-200db you’d just die.

once you pass the 190db mark is really doesn’t make any sense to describe it as a sound. It’s more of a shockwave. explosions are 200-300db, and that includes nuclear ones. So 500db is a shock wave that is one hundred quintillion times stronger than our biggest explosions. That’s not a sound. That’s “the earth is vaporized, the rest of the solar system is gone, and a few billion years from now astronomers in neighboring galaxies are writing research papers on why there’s such a big hole in one of the Milky Way’s spiral arms.”
