— The month of July is named after the Roman emperor Julius Caesar. Oh, you knew that? Well, here's the thing: January is named after Janus, who is the two-faced Roman god of time.

Learning is a journey of incompetence.

First, we realize that there’s something we don’t know.

Then we see that we’re going to be better at it, and we’re not good at it yet.

Then we figure it out and we’ve succeeded.

Repeat.

When we pre-process the information and simply test people on it, there’s no real learning going on.

We become what we do, and if we actually solve the riddle, we’re more likely to have it stick than if someone simply tells us the answer.

The job of the teacher is to create the conditions for the student to explore their incompetence long enough to learn something useful.

The 3-97 Percent Rule

Reading 3 books about any topic puts you ahead of 97% of people.

Not because these books make you an expert, but because most people never read that deeply about a single subject.

Remember though: Knowledge from books can't replace hands-on experience and practice.

The 10 Percent Rule

There is a simple rule: you should always tell ten percent of what you know in any field.

Then it will always be interesting to talk to you and the topics will never end. And in this case, if someone decides to get you to talk, they will be able to go about thirty percent deeper, but still won't reach the limit.

If you tell everything you know, you will quickly become exhausted and devastated.

— An intolerant minority can control and destroy democracy. Actually, it will eventually destroy our world. So, we need to be more than intolerant with some intolerant minorities.

How do books get banned?

Certainly not because they offend the average person–most persons are passive and don’t really care, or don’t care enough to request the banning.

It looks like, from past episodes, that all it takes is a few (motivated) activists for the banning of some books, or the black-listing of some people.

The great philosopher and logician Bertrand Russell lost his job at the City University of New York owing to a letter by an angry–and stubborn–mother who did not wish to have her daughter in the same room as the fellow with dissolute lifestyle and unruly ideas.

— Studying individual ants will never (one can safely say never for most such situations), never give us an idea on how the ant colony operates. For that, one needs to understand an ant colony as an ant colony, no less, no more, not a collection of ants.

Three Men Make a Tiger

People will believe anything if enough people tell them it’s true.

It comes from a Chinese proverb that if one person tells you there’s a tiger roaming around your neighborhood, you can assume they’re lying.

If two people tell you, you begin to wonder.

If three say it’s true, you’re convinced there’s a tiger in your neighborhood and you panic.

The 90-9-1 Rule

In social media networks, 90% of users just read content, 9% of users contribute a little content, and 1% of users contribute almost all the content.

Gives a false impression of what ideas are popular or “average.”

— In order for man to succeed in life, God provided him with two means, education and physical activity. Not separately, one for the soul and the other for the body, but for the two together. With these two means, man can attain perfection. (Plato)

Two visionary writers about space exploration were afraid to fly.

Isaac Asimov says his aviophobia was instilled by his parents, who feared for his safety after a childhood illness.

Ray Bradbury feared both flying and driving.

He blamed his driving phobia on a fatal accident he witnessed as a teen.

Ultimately, Bradbury overcame his fear of flying.

The reason?

“A car breaking down in so many small Southern towns and the chauffeur taking three miserable days just to get through Florida,” he said.

“After the second tire blew, I got the word. In a loud and clear voice from the heavens above, I heard the message: ‘Fly, dummy, fly!’”

Cornelius Vanderbilt built a railroad empire by breaking laws, famously saying:

"You don’t suppose you can run a railroad in accordance with the statutes of the State of New York, do you?”

John D. Rockefeller was called “no better than a common thief” by a judge, yet today, he is seen as a business genius.

Benjamin Graham, a legendary investor, saw most of his wealth come from a single investment in GEICO, contradicting his own diversification principles.

“One lucky break, or one supremely shrewd decision—can we tell them apart?” —Benjamin Graham
