Lets dive into the quotes of wisdom and curiosity

• “I would love to see a trillion humans living in the solar system. If we had a trillion humans, we would have, at any given time, a thousand Mozarts and a thousand Einsteins. “

• “the only way to get to that vision is with giant space stations. The planetary surfaces are just way too small.”

• “One of the great things to take away from that[the Space Race] , one of the great von Braun quotes is, “I have come to use the word impossible with great caution.” And so, that’s kind of the big story of Apollo is that going to the moon was literally an analogy that people used for something that’s impossible. “Oh, yeah, you’ll do that when men walk on the moon.” And of course, it finally happened.”

• “it is a fact that 500 years ago, pre-industrial age, the natural world was pristine. It was incredible. And we have traded some of that pristine beauty for all of these other gifts that we have as an advanced society. And we can have both, but to do that, we have to go to space.”

• “Invention is really lateral thinking that requires wandering and you have to give yourself permission to wander.”

• “When you invent a better way, you make the whole world richer. So whatever it was, I don’t know how many thousands of years ago, somebody invented the plow. And when they invented the plow, they made the whole world richer because they made farming less expensive. And so it is a big deal to invent better ways. That’s how the world gets richer.”

• “We need to start training ourselves to think longer term. Long-term thinking is a giant lever. You can literally solve problems if you think long-term, that are impossible to solve if you think short-term.”

• “Be stubborn on vision but flexible on the details.”

Weekly Curiousity Corner

This week we have some curiousity thoughts from thr latest CES24 news.

LG and Samsung made headlines at CES24 by announcing transparent TVs. But it got me thinking what is the use of a transparent TVs at our home?

It made me thinking what could be a alternate market for a transparent display.

One interesting idea is use transparent display on helmets and car windshields to display maps while riding. Kind of AR using transparent display.

PS: What is your take on transparent TVs. Share your thoughts with us.
