Great idea, thanks! We're currently developing a series of videos to replace the explanation so I'll definitely look into the sherlock series and see how they've portrayed it.

Have you heard of the Weimar Republic? A little reading into history and economics would do you a lot of good. Giving people free stuff has never worked in the history of the world. It would be much better if the government stopped regulating wages so homeless people with low skills could actually get a job and develop skills that are employable.

After all, for the gov to give money to homeless people they have to forcibly take it from someone else. If they simply print the money then you're just indirectly stealing from everyone else through inflation. Not to mention, once people catch on that you don't have to work then no one will.

Actually, this is kind of what is happening today with social welfare programs all around the world. Things are progressively going to shit (pun intended) instead of continuing the growth the western world (especially the USA) experienced through the 18th and early 19th century.

Anyways, no matter what you say, there is simply no logical or historical case for what you propose.

Also, F* the banks. They should not have been bailed out. That's simply politicians doing favors and stuffing their own pockets.

Not going to hold my breath. More confidence in Elon Musk launching a bunch of low orbit internet satellites. Now THAT would be awesome...

This looks pretty great. Will be in Myanmar in a week and would like to try it out.

I'm also the NA operations director for CDO Nepal and think there could be an opportunity to work together. We should connect. Shoot me an email when you get the chance.

Worst idea ever.

Working on a change now.

Fair point. I suppose with a such a new method the barriers to signing up need to be as minimal as possible. Give us a few hours and we'll try to have a trial system up by tomorrow or the weekend

Great book. "The Art of Memory" by Frances Yates is also a fascinating read. Chronicles the memory palace technique along its entire 2300 year history in popular culture.

The technique was used for about 2300 years and is the primary method used by modern memory champions. Essentially, we're just simplifying the process of using it to learn. In other words, we organize all the information logically and make it easy to create mnemonic images, which traditionally, have been the largest barriers to learning this way.

It's time for a resurgence in self-education. Schools no longer are providing us with what we need to succeed in the world.
