What is the highlight of human civilization according to Scott?
Good morning, everybody, and welcome to the highlight of human civilization. It's Cold Coffee with Scott Adams, and there's never been a better time in your life. than right now but if you'd like to take a chance on taking this up to a level that nobody's ever experienced with their tiny shiny human brains and the history of the universe all you need is a cupper mug or a glass of tanker chalice a sign a canteen jug or flask a vessel of any kind and fill it with your favorite liquid i like coffee And join me now for the unparalleled pleasure of the dopamine at the end of the day, the thing that makes everything better. It's called the simultaneous sip and it happens. That's right. Right now. Go. Hmm. Not bad. Could be better, but not bad.
How does coffee consumption relate to American adults?
Well, despite the rise in price of coffee, did you know that according to the National Coffee Association, which is where I go for all my coffee information, it's called the NCA, it's revealed that two-thirds of American adults drink coffee daily with an average of three cups consumed per day. Two-thirds of Americans. That means that one-third of Americans are sad and tired all the time. They don't know what the problem is. One-third. Sorry about it, one-third. A Data Republican on X. If you don't follow Data Republican, you should. It's one of the better accounts. And what Data Republican does is data, but does it really well with AI. And has now developed a new tool called that you can use that's a DEI funding detector.
What is the new DEI funding detector tool?
It's still in beta, but apparently what it can do is it can scan the billions in federal awards and IRS filings, and then it uses AI to look through all that data, and it can find even when they're hiding DEI by changing the names. So it's clever enough to say, oh, that's really DEI, even though you're not using any of those words. So it can uncover DEI-focused awards, reveal mission mismatches, when the money and the nonprofit don't align. It can look for DEI-specific flags, So that's going to be fun as we try to remove all the racism from the world with getting rid of the DEI. And it does a little more. Here's some good news. There's been the discovery of an exoplanet called K2-18b, which is how I refer to it usually.
And they think that it has an alien ocean that may be teeming with life. So there's a 99.7% certainty that the planet has at least one gas in its atmosphere that, at least on Earth, is produced only by living things. Now, what do you think are the odds that that planet is actually teeming with life because there's a gas that on Earth is associated with living things? Is that good enough?
What discovery was made about the exoplanet K2-18b?
I don't know. I'm not going to wait for the aliens. I don't think. I don't think. But wouldn't it be amazing if we found some actual aliens someday? Don't you want to live long enough to see some aliens? Well, here's the good news. According to many podcasts, we have captured aliens in warehouses in various government facilities. And we also have, oh, I don't know how many UFOs we've captured. According to people who have said things. So if you can't trust people you don't know who have said things, who can you trust? science um all right i've got a rare recommendation for you of a content that you might enjoy now the reason it's rare is because almost everything on television is trash But I gave a chance to this one thing on Netflix. It's a new series called The Residence.
I'm not sure if there's a thought in front of it, but Residence or The Residence. Now, the first thing you need to know is it's super woke. And if you're surprised that I'm recommending something that's super woke, let me finish. And then maybe I'll change your mind. So it's super woke, but it's about a murder in the White House, and the president is a gay married guy. All the white men in the story are presented as dumb and possibly criminals. The hero of the series is a black woman who is the most brilliant detective in all the world. Everybody knows her. And she's extra good because she's overweight. And so that sounds pretty woke, doesn't it? Sounds like exactly something you don't want to watch, right? All right, I'm going to change your mind.
