The distance between words and actions

My 9 and 11 year old daughters didn’t understand why we couldn’t go into this ice cream store.

Some of y’all are lying

Australian startup Cortical Labs has created CL1 — the world’s first living computer powered by real human brain cells. Using around 800,000 lab-grown neurons derived from human skin and blood, the system mimics how the brain processes information. These neurons aren’t just passive components — they learn and adapt, giving CL1 a form of biological intelligence that blurs the line between organic life and machines.

This breakthrough in “neuromorphic computing” could pave the way for revolutionary advancements in AI, robotics, and medicine. Unlike traditional silicon chips, CL1 has the potential to use far less power while performing complex tasks, hinting at a future where machines can think and learn biologically — not just digitally.

Despite All Our Progress, Millions Still Believe the Earth Is Flat... Why?

In a world powered by satellites, space missions, and global GPS — around 7% of the global population still believes the Earth is flat.

How is that possible?
Is it a lack of science education?
A deep distrust in institutions?
Or the viral spread of misinformation online?

The flat Earth theory isn't just a fringe idea anymore — it's a case study in how beliefs persist, even in an age of information.

It raises a powerful question:
How do facts compete with feelings in the digital era?

Comment below: Do you think it's ignorance… or something deeper?
