Big Data and Your Brain

Your brain is nature’s first attempt to manage big data. a. Too much and it dysfunctions. b. Some brains get filled but get cluttered like a dump. c. The best examples are those who can tease out what's needed when it's needed.  d. Some have the power to discard the irrelevant. e. Many keep working, always working on a problem.   f. Problem solving ability?  Use it or lose it.  g. Solving the hypothetical is like working out. It is possible that newer developments and needs by humanity to survive in the age of data, the next step in evolution has begun. It will favor a brain with adaptive, algorithmic sensibility.  It may be a rapid transition. In a previous evolutionary step, the brain with abilities to seek different food was favored. The hunter was born. To make and use tools to kill was another step to favor the hunter. The tool maker evolved.

Cracked Eggs and Jet Trails

The Cracked Egg . Did you know that eggs meant for the grocery market undergo an automatic acoustic sensor test to determine if they are cracked.   Takes only a fraction of a second.   Cracked eggs are then rejected and ejected. (No, they are not sent back for repair.) ‘Tis a shame we don’t have acoustic sensor tests for people to make a similar determination.   But our cracked types are allowed to plunder on, offering little and taking a lot. --------------- Contrails. Did you know the contrails of jets may cause more global warming that all other sources combined?   And it’s getting worse. https://urldefense.proofpoint. com/v2/url?u=https-3A__weather .com_science_environment_news_ 2019-2D06-2D28-2Dair-2Dcraft-2 Dcontrails-2Dglobal-2Dwarming& d=DwICaQ&c=u6LDEWzohnDQ01ySGnx Mzg&r=mbbwiLKJmVf9GVoMN0YFR07k SNz_FRSQwQFzSWbMq4Y&m=EoTbr_hL iCwE-JrR-lHAn-UNyuy4KvbBN2LJhv _XX5I&s=KPo0Josc5m_hp8xQu-_h0R UHwxCtXcvo831g91Fltnk&e=    ---------------
