What is the highlight of human civilization according to Scott?
Good morning, everybody, and welcome to the highlight of human civilization. It's called Coffee with Scott Adams. You've never had a better time. But if you'd like to take this experience up to levels that nobody can even understand with their tiny, shiny human brains, all you need for that is a cup or mug or a glass, a tank or shells, a steiner, canteen, jug or flask, a vessel of any kind. Fill it with your favorite liquid. I like coffee. And join me now for the unparalleled pleasure of the dopamine hit of the day, the thing that makes everything better. It's called the simultaneous sip, and it happens right now. Yes, exactly. Go. Fully recharged. I'm working at full strength today. We got news. We're going to pound right through it. You ready for this? Happy Friday, by the way.
How does baseline happiness affect career satisfaction?
Let's see. Is there any new science that they could have completely skipped just by asking Scott? Oh, yeah. Here's one. The University of South Australia found out that being happy in your career doesn't make you happy in life, but being happy in general in your life can make you enjoy your career that you have more. Um, they could have just asked me. Yes, it's called baseline happiness. And if you're happy in general, everything else in your life looks better. How many of you didn't know that? Was there anybody who thought, you know, if I were depressed, but I got a better job, I'll bet that would cheer me up. No, it doesn't work that way. If you're happy, then even your crap job seems pretty good to you. And if you're unhappy, it doesn't matter how good your job is.
What revolutionary technology is being developed for wastewater processing?
You're still going to be unhappy. So just ask me next time I could have cleared that up. Saved you a lot of money. Well, according to Marine Insight publication, over in Germany, there's this revolutionary new wastewater processing plant. It's a wastewater processing plant. And what's revolutionary is that they can convert the wastewater into methanol, which I guess is kind of climate neutral, and you can use that for marine fuels. Now, I wonder if there's anybody who works on the wastewater project that would tell us that we live in a simulation. Let's see. The wastewater... is being explained by Dr. Wissing, W-S-S-I-N-G, Wissing.
How is drone technology evolving in warfare?
So Dr. Wissing can tell you about the wastewater. Apparently, Dr. Pooping was not available. He's the number two. Yep. Dr. Wissing for wastewater. Okay. All right. All right. Judge me. You can judge me on that one. This you knew was coming. Next Gen Defense was reporting that Maxar Intelligence, they've developed... a vision-based software that can make GPS unnecessary for your drone. So in other words, if your drone gets jammed and it can't see the GPS signal, it doesn't care because Maxar Intelligence has these databases that are really detailed. They've got 3D terrain data for 34 million square miles. So it can just switch to, or maybe it doesn't even need, GPS. Which means that there is practically no defense against drones now.
What insights does Ezra Klein provide on the efficiency of Democrats?
If your drone can't be jammed, if you can't jam the GPS, that seems like a problem. So yes, as Naval Ravikant said recently, it's really inevitable that all warfare will be drones, because why would you need anything else? It's all going to be drones. Well, if you haven't yet seen Ezra Klein on Jon Stewart's podcast... Oh, you have to see this. I so recommend this. So look for the clips. If you just see the clips, you'll see everything you need to see. But so Ezra Klein is a co-author of the book Abundance. And he's doing, you know, I have to say my first impression was, hey, you're just writing a book that says Democrats should act more like Republicans if they want to win anything. So I wasn't sure it was adding much to the world. But now I think it is.
So I'm going to switch to full compliment to Ezra Klein and I guess Derek Thompson, the two co-authors. So the thing that was amazing is that you've heard Ezra Klein talk about how the Democrats are good at funding impressive things. But then for reasons that I didn't quite understand, nothing got done. So there was the funding of the high-speed rail in California that didn't get done.
