Quote of the Day
The problem with assumptions is that they’re usually correct. For certain people, at a certain times, in certain places.
The danger isn’t that you’ll sometimes be wrong. The danger is that you’ll always be right.
That is, your assumptions about human nature will be true, but less useful than those of your competitors.

Yes, new format for us. The photo below is of earth, taken by voyager from a distance of nearly 4 billion miles. The original story link can be found here.
Look again at that dot. That’s here. That’s home. That’s us. On it everyone you love, everyone you know, everyone you ever heard of, every human being who ever was, lived out their lives. The aggregate of our joy and suffering, thousands of confident religions, ideologies, and economic doctrines, every hunter and forager, every hero and coward, every creator and destroyer of civilization, every king and peasant, every young couple in love, every mother and father, hopeful child, inventor and explorer, every teacher of morals, every corrupt politician, every ‘superstar,’ every ‘supreme leader,’ every saint and sinner in the history of our species lived there on a mote of dust suspended in a sunbeam. - Carl Sagan

Quote of the Week: Stephen Toulmin
Our intellectual grasp extends throughout the cosmos, and has brought to light the material processes going on at every scale-from the themonuclear furnaces of the stars, down through the protein-factories of the cytoplasm, to the changes of wave-pattern which take place when an atom swallows a photon. And this intellectual grasp is paralleled and completed when we turn to the practical sphere. We have exceeded the dreams of the craftsmen, the alchemists and the medicine-men, and by now we have the means either to satiate or to destroy ourselves.
