Just finished The Fury by Alex Michaelides. Coming from The Silent Patient, I was curious about how his other books would hold up, and once again, this was a ride. I really thought he couldn’t get me this time ,that I was immune to his tricks, that I wouldn’t trust him but he lured me in again and shook me. interesting read. 3.6 *

I often think life is just a performance. None of this is real. It’s a pretense at reality, that’s all. Only when someone, or something, we love dies, do we wake up from the play—and see how artificial it all is—this constructed reality we inhabit. We suddenly realize that life is in no way lasting, or permanent; no future exists—and nothing we do matters. And in desolation, we howl and scream and rail at the heavens, until, at some point, we do the inevitable: we eat, dress, and brush our teeth. We continue with the marionette-like motions of life, however unhinged it feels to do so. Then, ever so slowly, the illusion takes over again—until we forget that we are actors in a play. Until the next tragedy strikes—to wake us up. The Fury - Alex Michaelides

One thing he repeatedly returns to is the resilience of foreigners, something he learned firsthand while living in China. Even in the hiring process, he says he looks for a strong hustle mentality.

This about to be my favorite episode

Get ready for another Devtopia episode. We interviewed Izzy the CTO of Chapa. We talked about his thoughts on AI, his research work before starting Chapa and the journey of starting Chapa. It is an interesting episode check it out. [Devtopia - E06 - Israel]

context If Anthony Joshua loses I'll shave my hair tomorrow Match just ended: he couldn't hide for more than 5 rounds, Knock out on 6th 🥊

I can't go the rest of my life asking if it's AI or not

I couldn't put this down honestly Won't say much about it, only that the author decided that he had free will and took us on a ride. 5* for me.

TLDR: here Just discovered that John Green wrote The Fault in Our Stars, which was later adapted into a movie. I’d already seen the movie, but after this episode, hearing him talk about it, it really made me want to watch it again. Also learned that the title is actually a Shakespeare reference from the line: “The fault, dear Brutus, is not in our stars, but in ourselves.” But he’s kind of reversing that and showing us the fault in our stars (fate/chance). ⚠️Spoiler Alert The movie is centered around cancer, and I wondered why cancer isn’t transmissible or even why some other diseases aren’t. Well, it turns out: In almost all cases, cells from another person can’t enter your body and survive long term. Cancer is a group of diseases characterized by the uncontrolled growth and division of abnormal cells. Our cells divide for different reasons, millions of times, and each time a cell divides, DNA can get damaged or copied incorrectly. Most mistakes are harmless or fixed by repair systems (which we have). And there are other things that affect mutations too, like your environment UV, chemicals, viruses. These cells are dangerous because they have certain characteristics like this, And your immune system can’t just attack your own cells with these characteristics (it does sometimes, but that’s another story). So mutations with errors: - because a lot of them occur (millions every day), - environmental factors like UV, chemicals, and viruses that affect DNA, and genetics can lead to cancer, which is why we tend to see it more in older people Why do kids have cancer then? Well… And chemo? How does that work? I also remember hearing Demis Hassabis [ who won Nobel Prize in Chemistry for his AI work on protein structure prediction] saying that his dream was a virtual cell maybe in the next 10 years. There’s obviously a lot more to this topic, and when you try to understand even our current knowledge, you can see how solving it is incredibly challenging. ☀️ We'll hopefully see how technology will help us correct the fault in our stars.
