We created gyms because modern day work no
longer required physical activity. Without exercise,
our muscles atrophy.
I predict we'll need gyms for our brains too, once Al
starts doing our knowledge work.

If you ever wondered why visible light is those particular wavelengths, it's because life evolved to see in the narrow range where water is transparent

This idea applies to other things. If you wear a big sun hat, a polo shirt, and a pair of baggy cargo shorts to the zoo, you can tell people wholly fabricated, rather incorrect information about the animals and they will believe you.

In 1900, Swiss physician & naturalist Auguste Forel noted that honeybees visited his breakfast table at the same time every morning, even when food was absent. He wondered idly if they had a sense of time. This began a chain reaction that ended *55 years later* with JET-LAGGED BEES. I'll explain.
A photo of Auguste Forel, sitting in his garden.  Later in life he got very into the Baha'i faith, and he was quite the polymath.  He has a walking stick, a very Swiss straw hat and neat white beard.  A smallish house is behind him.

I worked at Disney a while ago. Do you know why theme parks are so safe? Because OOSHA reps can walk the track on any ride at any time and any safety violation they see is a $10,000 fine. Each. Theme parks are not safe because the company cares. They're safe because it's cheaper to comply.

Android was successful due to being open source and an open platform. Google chose that approach to catch up and get near universal adoption by OEMs and carriers. They've gradually phased in illegal anti-competitive practices making it into a bait and switch. They can be forced to roll it all back.
