What is the highlight of human civilization?

Scott Adams 0:02
Good morning, everyone, and welcome to the highlight of human civilization. It's called Coffee with Scott Adams. And you've never had a better time. But if you'd like to try taking your experience up to levels that nobody's even understanding with their tiny, shiny human brains, for that, all you need is a cup or a mug or a glass, a tank or a chalice or a stein, a canteen jug or a flask, a vessel of any kind. Fill it with your favorite liquid. I like coffee. And join me now for the unfair little pleasure of the dopamine. At the end of the day, the thing that makes everything better, it's called the simultaneous sip. It happens now. Go. Ah, spectacular. That's the good stuff. Well, I wonder if there's any science studies that didn't need to happen. Oh, here's one.

How does entertainment influence political success?

Scott Adams 1:00
According to SciPost, Eric Dolan is writing, there's a new study in the British Journal of Psychology that says that entertainment is a key to populist political success. So if your candidate is very entertaining, they will do better in politics. You know... You didn't really need to do that study. You could have asked me or really anybody who has been alive for more than 10 minutes. Because yes, yes, an entertaining candidate like Ronald Reagan, for example, absolutely is going to do better. Trump, of course. Yes, the more entertaining you are, the better you draw people to you. I don't think it's just the key to populist political success. I think it might be the key to all kinds of political success. Well, what else? Let's see. Oh, here we go. U.S.

companies are avoiding hiring white men. as part of their diversity push, according to the Telegraph. Did you really need to study that? That if companies are looking to increase diversity, did you really not know that that meant that they would be avoiding hiring white men? Again, they didn't need to study it. Just ask me, Scott. Do you think diversity means hiring white men? And I would say, hmm, no. Sounds like avoiding hiring white men. Yeah, just ask. Next time, I'll save you a lot of time and money. Well, according to the Daily Wire, the group that's behind the MCAT test, that's the test you take to see if you get into medical school, They said they were going to get rid of DEI. But according to insiders, they were lying.

And all they were going to do is hide the fact that they were totally going to do DEI. So according to the Daily Wire, on the surface, the group that administers the MCAT looks like they left DEI behind because they sort of scrubbed those words from their materials. But behind the scenes... It's working on plans to secretly push the ideology.

What is the current state of DEI in companies?

Scott Adams 3:42
Turns out that as far as I can tell, every big company is just waiting for the Trump administration to be done. So it looks like nobody's really getting rid of DEI. Maybe Target, maybe John Deere. But basically, I would bet that 80% to 90% of the companies or organizations that say they're getting rid of DEI are lying, just lying, and violating the law like crazy because DEI is racism and it's non-constitutional. And I've got a fear that even though it looks like Trump got rid of DEI, I'm not so sure. I think maybe he made a 10% dent in it, and the moment he's gone, it will just come back stronger than ever. That's what it looks like. Well, ABC News has a cool story about 3D printed houses. Now, you know that there have been 3D printed houses for a while. But the ones you've seen probably look like cement, you know, some big, big machine that's making cement walls.

Well, there's a new type that uses just waste wood. So all the sawdust that's created from real wood. And they take all that sawdust and they put it together with corn resin and they make a 3D printer and they make a bio home. I guess it takes a week to create a home. And it's made of material that's stronger than concrete and is completely recyclable. So if you take the appliances out of the house, you can recycle the whole house and turn it back into a 3D printer material. That's wild. So that's kind of cool. At the same time, there's another company that's got 3D printed houses. But the way they're doing it is they make the blocks. They're interconnecting like Legos.
