Memorization has an unfairly negative reputation. I recently spent a few hours memorizing the names of all the countries in the world and it's such a clear improvement in how well I can understand and reason about other topics. Memorization is scaffolding for more complex ideas

Here’s another clip of a woman reading Trump’s words verbatim from a recent rally in Mississippi that puts a giant magnifying glass over how gone he is cognitively and unfit he is for office.

Trump: "They have a lion, a bear, a snake, and a camel. They say, 'Which one is the snake?' That's question one ... it's a very highly respected test ... very hard."

I hope people will study this clip to notice:
-- how Obama seems authentic and relatable without apologizing for his obvious intelligence or seeming to talk down.
-- how he adapts his speaking style to his audience.
-- how he invites his audience to live in the moment with him.
Very few people can do what he's doing here. Obama is a supreme political talent, and I hope the next generation of leaders is studying his every move, not just to imitate him, but to identify similar talents among themselves.

Every Dem is using a sophisticated model called “PTSD” that subtracts 5 points from every red state Dem and 10 for Maine and South Carolina

Midterms arguably signal the end of not only the Trump era, but also the long 2016:
• The Dem left agrees Obama was a good POTUS who faced real constraints and that median voter is mod;
• The Dem mods agree to pursue class polarization and concede party’s prog establishment/seniority system is broken.

Abdul El-Sayed: “We are being actively bullied by the dumbest people in the room. Donald Trump is an idiot. He has one genius which is getting attention. Because his dad never gave him enough, because he was a nepo baby, he craved attention and used the bullying tactics to get it. But the man is an idiot. Just a fool”

okay, this app is kind of amazing
So I recently badgered my cinematographer @steveyedlin into making my ideal iPhone still camera app. It shoots RAW, bypasses the iPhone's look processing and instead uses the same image processing we use on our movies. apps.apple.com/app/apple-sto…

Nate Silver the pundit is annoying, uninteresting, and uninformative.
Nate Silver the election modeler is absolutely the best to have ever done it.
