I discuss-

Housekeeping about coronavirus

• Stop asking what next with Corona Virus 
• 3 axis of understanding the pandemic and its reactions
• The trade off on the economy shutting down for lockdowns
• Gorilla analogy for our current state
• Only buying medicine and science time, this is solving nothing
• Alternatives- much like this, are illusions of randomness. We understand people are going to die, but we will make it the ‘out of our control’ possible. The most out of our control is the most precautious and extreme we can be. That is the moral question at the base of the delimma between alternatives and the lockdown. You can draw your threshold for how much randomness is enough for you. 
• what can I do? Meditate and learn something new- horizonal and synthetical learning
• I dont think bioterrorism is the case.

Personal Journey- 

Reading method-

• I order more books than I should have
• I order books on instinct. If i want to, i do. There is no selection process per se
• I keep them around me- Umberto Eco’s anti library
• I listen to them on youtube and podcasts
• I never finish a book
• I read chapters that I want 
• When I hit a disagreement, I dont walk over. I stay and I disagree in my head. I give books the time to simmer in my head.
• I try to learn the bridging logic to my reality- how do you relate to what you read is very important to establish clearly
• Read half books- finish it in my head- then read to confirm- acquring their voice, burning their way of thought in my head
• I read multiple books at once, allowing them to talk in my head
• I talk about the ideas with myself to clarify them. In my head,  with my friends. 
• I am whimsical and non judgemental with my reading process. The attempt is to discover what I can not store all I could and then use that discovery on an everyday level. Ideas are not ideas, they are mental models
