Cold water + lemon + small sugar + "ጤና አዳም" + (sometimes ) mint leaf

Not knowing what to do VS knowing what you must do but its not something you like

Which one you fear most?

New days brings us two possibilities, we either win, or we learn

Both move us forward

there is a concept called six degrees of separation it says any two people can be connected through six or fewer acquaintances.

Studies show that network structure influences cooperation meaning that our social connections shape our behavior

its like me connecting with someone today will affect everyone i don't even know

how may holes does a straw has?

Confirmation bias

>You focus on information that fits what you already believe and overlook or downplay anything that contradicts it.

False memory

Your brain creates a memory of something that did not actually happen or changes details of what did happen

When you remember something, your brain rebuilds the event from pieces rather than retrieving a perfect copy. While rebuilding, it can accidentally add or remove details.

The more you remember an event, the more the story changes each time slightly. Eventually, the updated version feels like the original

AI-powered sticker maker

techcrunch

you connect AI to a printer and print design with a prompt

i mean you can literally add "AI-powered" to something that is existing and it feels as its new invention

or we make it look like a new invention with multi-million potential

Turns out, it was just a random name

Sleeping Beauty Problem
On Sunday Beauty goes to sleep. A fair coin will be tossed.
If it lands Heads, she is awakened once on Monday.
If it lands Tails, she is awakened on Monday and again on Tuesday.
Each time she wakes up, her memory of the previous awakening is erased.
When she wakes up, she is asked: What is your credence that the coin was Heads

Halfer view
The halfer says the answer is one half.
Reasoning: The coin toss happens once while Beauty is asleep. It is a normal fair coin, so the chance of Heads is still one half. Waking up does not give her new information about the toss, because waking up happens in both cases. So her belief should stay one half.

Thirder view
The thirder says the answer is one third.
Reasoning: Beauty wakes up in more worlds where the coin is Tails.
There are three equally likely awakening situations
Heads Monday
Tails Monday
Tails Tuesday
Only one of them is a Heads situation.
So the probability of Heads is one third.

How a 28 Year Old Man Bankrupted One Of England's Oldest Banks

I was actually watching a YouTube video noscriptd "Why People Are So Confident When They're Wrong," which discussed overconfidence and the Dunning-Kruger effect.

In the video, they mentioned Nick Leeson, the trader who brought down Barings Bank, Britain's oldest merchant bank, in 1995 by hiding losses of $1.3 billion. This destroyed a 233-year-old institution that had survived both World Wars.

Leeson was arrested and served four years in prison. Later, he wrote a book called Rogue Trader.

i was curious so i searched about him and found a YouTube video where he was invited to speak 👆

over confidence can kill your future and others around you

if i was given a chance to become a billionaire or to be able to understand Quantum Physics

i will definitively choose Quantum Physics
