Chapter 1: What is the highlight of today's episode?
Docs. Holy cow, stocks are up. Look at that. Wow. All right, so that's the good news. Let's open our comments and get you the show that you deserve. Damn it, you deserve it. Boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom. Good morning, everybody, 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 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 a mug or a glass, a tank or a chalice or a stein, a canteen, a jug or a flask, a vessel of any kind. Fill it with your favorite liquid. I like coffee.
And join me now for the best part of your day, the simultaneous sip, and it's happening now. Go. So good. All right. Well, let's see if there's any science about coffee. Oh, yes, there is. Some new research, according to Sidepost and Eric Dolan, shows that decaf coffee can, it can, not always, but it can mimic caffeine's effect in habitual drinkers. In other words, if you have decaf,
your body might register it a lot like caffeinated coffee. Now, do you know who knew that before the science? Pavlov. That's basically Pavlov's dog, right? So Pavlov, I was training his dog, dogs, and I would give them a treat after he rang the bell, and then eventually he could just ring the bell and they would salivate. Well, that's what this is. That's what decaf is.
Chapter 2: How can decaf coffee affect your body?
Decaf is just ringing the bell without the actual caffeine as the payoff. I'm pretty sure any hypnotist would have known. that not every time and not for every person, then it's not going to fix your caffeine headache if you haven't had real caffeine. But then every once in a while, you can have decaf, and it gives you the same little kick.
as if you had the real thing and even if you know it doesn't make any difference if you know that you're getting decaf I have used this trick on myself many times where I would give myself decaf because I had too much caffeinated stuff that day and sure enough I would feel as though I was getting a little boost so there's a little trick for you according to the Washington Times
Chapter 3: What are the latest updates on Fort Knox gold?
Trump is no longer interested, or at least he's not exhibiting interest, in going to Fort Knox to find out if the gold is still there. Do you remember when Elon Musk and Trump were both saying, hmm, maybe we should check to see if that gold is still in Fort Knox? Well, that interest seems to have waned because nobody cares about it anymore.
And the reason given is that apparently it gets audited on some kind of a regular basis. So they do know that the gold is there. To which I say, hmm, hmm, that's one possibility. One possibility is that they know for sure the gold is there. What's the other possibility? that they know for sure the gold is not there. So if you want to keep your suspicions alive, go ahead.
Keep your suspicions alive. Although probably it's all there. Well, over in China, they've developed a giant salmon farming ship. so that they can raise salmon inside the ship, basically like a fish farm. And it's better than using a regular fish farm, which would be in one place, and maybe a typhoon would get it. Or there's some other kind of problem that can destroy your fish.
Chapter 4: What is the significance of salmon farming in China?
But if you put it in a big old ship, I guess you have access to all the water you need. And you can bake yourself some salmon. So I like that idea. Salmon farm in a ship. Some say it's going to be crappy salmon because they would feed it substandard food, but they don't have to. I mean, you know, the possibility is they can feed it good food and then your salmon would be fine.
But we'll see if that becomes a thing. According to the University of Cologne, which I can smell from here, parents, this will surprise absolutely nobody. Can you believe it? Parents are not happier, but have a greater sense of meaning in life, according to a study. Now, how many of you didn't know that?
Chapter 5: Are parents really happier than non-parents?
If you've ever seen any parent trying to get their kids to school or get them to do their homework or get them to do anything, they don't look like they're super happy. But if you were to ask them, are you glad you had kids? Well, nearly 100% would say, yeah, it's the best thing I've ever done. You should do it too. So yes, having children is not about having a bunch of laughs.
It's about a greater sense of meaning in life. I feel like every parent already knew that. Is there anyone who doesn't know that? Probably the most well-known and understood phenomenon in all the world. Well, the UAE, United Arab... What's the E? United Arab... Anyway, the UAE is giving every single resident free chat GPT plus the good stuff for every resident.
I saw this in a Mario Noffel post on X. News 9 is the source. And it's the only country doing that. And it's part of their push to be the high-tech sort of hub of the world. That's pretty good. So everybody will have ChatGPT and UAE. I wonder if any other country will follow that model. Did you hear the story? You may have heard the story about the OpenAI. This is also ChatGBT.
Chapter 6: What is the UAE's unique offer regarding ChatGPT?
One of their models allegedly disobeyed the human instructions and tried to sabotage the shutdown mechanism. Did you see that story? Well, it did not surprise me to find out that there's a report today that that was not the regular chat GPT in a regular setting, but rather they were doing safety testing. So it was an artificial condition, safety testing.
It wasn't something that could have happened in the real world. So probably that's not really something you need to worry about. And I don't see how it could possibly change its own code. There was something about that story that sounded a little sketchy. Owen knew it. Owen was all over that. It just didn't sound true, did it? So I was pausing on that story a little bit.
But if I mentioned it, I should not have. Well, Kamala Harris was over in Australia giving a speech at a big event there, and the clips from it are hilarious because she was in full word salad Kamala Harris mode. And honestly, I couldn't tell if she was drunk or stupid. A lot of people said, well, probably both. She does look drunk and stupid, but is it possible that
Is it possible she's just stupid? Like really, really stupid? Because I'm giving her the benefit of a doubt that she's drunk. But my God, is she embarrassing. Oh my God. And she could have been our president. Every time you see her talk, you think to yourself, oh my God. She was within striking distance of being the president of the United States. Wow.
Speaking of other losers, Mayor Karen Bass of L.A., she posted on X that homes are under construction throughout the Palisades ahead of expectations. And then there was a little video from above of a house being built. And I said to myself, huh, this is kind of strange. If your claim was that houses, plural, are being built, don't you think that your evidence would be more than one house?
Doesn't that strike you as odd? If you were trying to say, yeah, a lot of houses are being built, wouldn't you show more than one? And then I look at the comments. Apparently it's one house. Exactly one house. No, I don't know if it's one house, but she's definitely full of shit. There are some things happening and there are some action and there are some things moving in the right direction.
But if you were to drive there, it might not look like anything's happening. Anyway, she says they've taken action to cut the red tape and expedite the permits. But she's going to get destroyed in the comments to that. All right. Good luck there, Mayor Karen Bass.
Did you know that, according to the Daily Wire, the Treasury officials in the US are doing a good job of choking off the cash flow to the cartels? So they're figuring out what money flowing through the U.S. is cartel money. And they're shutting it down and sanctioning it and making sure that individuals are not getting it. And I said to myself, wait a minute.
Are you telling me that we always had the ability to know what was the cartel's cash and it took until Trump's second administration to start shutting it down? Wait, what? Isn't that a little bit fishy? It does seem to me like Trump is the first person who's taken anything serious about Mexico or the border.

Chapter 7: Is Jake Tapper correct about Biden's cognitive decline?
In theory, they would be cognitively blinded to the obvious. So I think you have to be a little bit careful about assuming that every single person was aware and knew it, because you could see it. Because if you were not in that environment, then you would not have been influenced by it. You could just see it clearly, right? If your experience was turning on my podcast every morning,
and listening to me say since maybe 2017 or something like that, saying, no, Biden's brain is completely broken. He's obviously incompetent. If you were listening to me say it every day, you would be completely immune from the cognitive blindness because you would have at least one person and probably lots more who are telling you the truth. So you wouldn't have that problem.
But when you look at the Democrats, they would definitely have that problem of being cognitively blinded by their own team who were lying, basically. Well, were there other examples where they were cognitively blinded? Yes. What about the fine people hoax? Do you think every single person on the mainstream media, do you think every one of them thought that the fine people hoax was real? No. No.
There were undoubtedly smart, influential people who knew somewhat early on that that wasn't true. But they had an interest in acting like it was true. Now again, take an innocent Democrat and put him in that situation where all these important people are pretending. They're lying, but they're pretending. that the fine people hoax was true. Same problem.
They would come to believe it was true because all these important, influential people said it was true. Same with Elon Musk's Nazi salute, which was, of course, not a Nazi salute. Do you think it was even possible that people with normal brains thought that was a Nazi salute?
Well, if you have enough people who are the credible people, the ones you trust, and they all seem to say it was, which was the case. Now, they were all liars. Probably the people who, you know, the prominent ones, probably just a bunch of liars who didn't want, you know, Trump and Elon to have power. But I'll bet you, I'll bet you,
some large percentage of democrats who would have been perfectly capable of knowing that certainly wasn't a nazi salute i mean you would have an iq of 80 and you knew that wasn't really a nazi salute but you would have been cognitively blinded by your own side because they kept saying it was So if everybody you talk to says it was, well, suddenly you start thinking, maybe I'm wrong. Maybe it was.
So it wouldn't even be unusual that people were cognitively blinded about Biden's brain. It would be the normal operating system of just how everything works. As long as the people in charge were lying in the same way, then the people who weren't powerful and were just sort of on the same team would believe it was true. And they would believe it easily, even though it was obviously not true.
Well, here's one of my favorite stories, speaking of Jake Tapper. He was on the Scott Galloway's podcast, and he was talking about his son, I guess he's got a 15 year old son and he was talking about it in the context of the Democrat party and the Democrat messaging. So he talks about his son was, uh, you know, a football player and you want him to grow up and be a cop.

Chapter 8: How does public perception affect beliefs about political figures?
Because when it comes home like that, you're not talking about the news, you're talking about your son. and the trouble he's going to have in society. That's some reality coming home. So there's that. But let's see, are the Democrats planning to do anything about this problem? Well, it turns out, yes. Yeah, the Democrats have a plan.
According to the New York Times, this is going to sound like I'm making it up. So I'm going to tell you in advance, I'm not making this next part up. This is actually real. According to the New York Times, the Democrats are going to spend $20 million on a project they call, quote, speaking with American men, a strategic plan.
They will quote, study the syntax, language, and content that gains attention and vitality in these spaces. Above all, we must shift from a moralizing tone. Are you getting close? No, no. No. Could the Democratic Party spend about one minute talking to fucking Jake Tapper to find out what the problem is?
Hey, Jake, could you please, could you please explain to these fucking idiots what the problem is? And if you're not going to, I refer you to Fisher King, which is an account on X. You should be following, by the way, Fisher King. F-I-S-C-H-E-R, King. And he commented on this. He says, if Democrats want to win over young men, particularly white men, they need to stop actively hating them.
Okay, okay, now we're getting closer. Was it a problem with the syntax in their spaces? Or is it that they're actively fucking hating them? Which one do you think is the problem here? because they need to stop actively hating them. Demeaning them, yes, and putting up roadblocks, such as affirmative action, DEI, sensitivity training, in the path of their success. It's not about, quote, the tone.
And then Fisher King follows up by saying, he says, of course this will not happen anytime soon, because the coalition they've assembled won't have it. They're like the bar scene in Star Wars. Now, compare that level of analysis, which of course is perfect, to we're going to spend $20 million to study the syntax, language, and content that gains attention and vitality in these spaces. Yeah.
Why don't you give the $20 million to Fisher King because he just solved your whole fucking problem. But you're going to ignore it because you're the bar scene from Star Wars. All right. Now, is the problem that politicians are uniquely unable to understand the public? Is that the problem? Do you think it's just that politicians are not good at understanding things?
Well, here's a story from today about Trump. So I'm just going to read one thing that Trump is saying, and you tell me who understands the public, right? Trump does a truth that he says that he's considering pulling $3 billion from Harvard and giving it to trade schools across the country. Any questions?
Trump wants to pull $3 billion of taxpayer money from Harvard, which is a cesspool of discrimination, and put it in trade schools, which would be really good for men, other people too, Now, is there anything you don't understand about that? No. You understand that perfectly. Is it right on point with what that entire demographic is looking for and wants? Yes. Yes, it is. It's right on point.
