This clip was taken of a child whose mom died giving birth. The heart of the mom was donated to the person wearing black T-shirt. Watch the reaction of the child when the man holds it. It could recognize the heart beat of the mom.
CONGRATS to SpaceX on the deployment just now of 60 broadband data satellites, delivering 1TB of bandwidth from above. Many more to come. Connecting the next 4B people to the global economy. New sat design, deployment, Krypton thrusters and more. Been waiting for this day!

thinking: the more impact you make, the more noise comes back at you. the more noise, the harder it is to decipher signal. the less signal, the harder it is to make an impact. behold society’s immune system at work trying to maintain the status quo.
