From hate to love: Erica Lindbeck admits she initially hated voicing Misty Olszewska, and now it's one of her favorite roles 🤯

In an interview with The Gamer, Lindbeck says Misty started out as a hollow, throwaway seer with a few jokes about "unbalanced chakras." CD Projekt RED repeatedly rewrote the character until the BREAKTHROUGH, turning her into a "soft Harley Quinn from New Jersey" and a spiritual counterpoint to the c...

Scientists crack a 20-year nuclear mystery behind the creation of gold

Gold and other heavy elements are born in some of the universe’s most violent events—but scientists still struggle to understand the nuclear steps that create them. Now, nuclear physicists have uncovered three key discoveries about how unstable atomic nuclei decay during the rapid neutron-capture process, the chain reaction responsible for forging elements like gold and platinum.

GrandCode가 경쟁 프로그래밍에서 인간 경쟁자들을 모두 제치고 1위를 차지했다는 내용이다. AI가 마지막으로 인간 우위가 남아 있던 영역까지 넘어섰다는 점에서 매우 주목할 만한 성과로 보인다.

GrandCode just beat every human competitor in competitive programming, which was considered the last domain where humans still had an edge over AI. From 175th to 1st in under a year. That progression is honestly hard to wrap your head around. Competitive programming was one of

"Never let your fear be the barrier to your future!" - Futurist Jim Carroll

--

Futurist Jim Carroll is writing a series, The Art of the Infinite Pivot, based on 36 lessons from his 36 years as a solo entrepreneur, working as a nomadic worker in the global freelance economy. The series is unfolding here, and at pivot.jimcarroll.com.

When I walked out of my corporate job 36 years ago, I was terrified.

I didn’t yet have a mortgage, but my wife and I were newly married and planned to get one soon! I had no certainty that my idea of going freelance would work, and I was pretty scared I might fail. All the while, I was reminding myself that while my career path inside a big global firm was “stable” on paper, I was miserable every single moment.

I had to get out, but my fear told me to stay.

Looking back, I now realize that confronting my fear is a natural part of my career pivot.

Throughout this time, I also learned that fear was often a guiding and prevalent issue within my client base when my solo career pivoted from a pure technology focus to innovation & the future.

Innovation? I’ve regularly seen that the biggest obstacle to innovation isn’t a lack of budget or lack of ideas; it’s the collective fear of the unknown.

Trends? When it comes to the future, I’ve learned that vast numbers of people live in fear of what it represents.

But here’s what I also know: the Infinite Pivot requires you to acknowledge the fear, but refuse to let it take hold of your future.---

Futurist Jim Carroll knows that too many people see the future as a threat, not as an opportunity - because of their fear of what it represents.

Decoding Tomorrow: The Infinite Pivot Series – #5: “Never let your fear be the barrier to your future!”

🎉 "We broke 92% of SHA-256!" cries the self-congratulatory parade, flaunting their not-so-peer-reviewed #research. 🤔 But fear not, the paper (sponsored by 'dataplay.ai' – totally unbiased, right?) has all the cryptographic wizards shifting to... well, something. Maybe. 🧙‍♂️🔮

"The distance you travel is decided on your hardest days." - Futurist Jim Carroll

Your worst days will define your best days.

Your biggest mistakes make for your greatest successes.

The moments in which you seem you can barely give it enough will lead you to giving it everything you’ve got.

When it seems everything you are doing can’t make things right, you’ll suddenly find a way.

Those days in which you don’t seem to think you have enough in your tank are quietly recharging your batteries.

Do you sense a theme here?

When I talk about innovation, I constantly point out that the greatest innovators all shared something in common — they failed their way to success.

They got to the top by scraping along the bottom for a time. They only saw wonderful final results after a series of terrible, awful results.

So when those moments of quiet desperation hit, do what everyone has done: pick yourself up, shake it off, and keep moving. because things always come to those who put in the work.

Because the distance you travel is decided on those very days.

(Oh, and before you ask — no, there isn’t anything wrong here! This is just the thought that came to my head as I started my day today!)
