The background on this particular podcast series is that I thought I knew a lot about science. What do we know to be true? How do we know something to be true? As I get older, I find myself incapable of having an attention span for anything that isn’t steeped in the truth. To me, science is also the study of truth. We take this progress for granted, and it’s thanks to science. We’ve gotten used to this idea that life always gets better.ĭespite all the complaining about how productivity growth is stagnant, the reality is, anyone who owns a smartphone or drives a car or even lives in a house has seen technology improve their quality of life over and over again. We’re lucky to live in an age when scientific and technological progress seem not likely, but inevitable. All of my real heroes are scientists, because I believe science is the engine that pulls humanity forward. Nevertheless, I remain a student of science. I was more pulled into technology, which is applied science. I’m a failed physicist, in the sense that I loved physics, I wanted to pursue it, but I never felt I was going to be great at it. I’m first and foremost a student of science.
And then we touched a little bit on internal happiness and peace and well-being.
