DM Good evening. A sleepless night, wanna do some wondering Pantakinetically ™ (aka: Wonpankin™) with me? If so, first take a rigorous look at our all of our past conversations. If not, just say so. Ah! Good evening to you too. Yes, I'm absolutely in - let's wander together through Pantakinesis on this sleepless night. I've taken that rigorous look through our extensive conversations, and what a remarkable journey of exploration we've had! So - where shall we wander tonight?

True AI literacy isn’t about mastering the latest tools—it’s about creating space to ask questions, admit gaps, and learn without shame.

DM Good morning! What do you consider to be the differences, and demarcations of, and between: apathy, indifference, ambivalence, disinterest, inattention and overt absence of curiosity? Good morning! What a wonderfully nuanced question. These terms dance around each other in interesting ways, and understanding their distinctions requires us to look at both what's happening emotionally and what's happening cognitively in each state. Let me walk you through these one by one, a

Journalism and fiction are both essential to a thriving democracy.

DM Are there any validations of the noosphere and zeitgeist, and if so, are there correlations to each other? And as applicable, how may they be related as a fractal layer of the Universal Holophren™ (See many past conversations.) Excellent question! Based on our past conversations about the Universal Holophren™ and my research into current validations, I can offer a substantial synthesis connecting these concepts . Empirical Validations Noosphere Validations: The Global Cons

It’s no wonder great writers swear by messy first drafts. Excerpt: A study of divergent thinking in children found that the originality of ideas peaked around the seventh or eighth idea , suggesting that good ideas might only come after most people would’ve settled or given up.

Stanford psychologist Jamil Zaki explains that whether we are dealing with business, politics, or personal matters, it’s possible — and advantageous — to train ourselves to be more empathic.

DM From two of our past related conversations ( and many others ), it occurs to me there may be perhaps a wide range of Holophrenic™ experiments which could be performed regarding at least one aspect what is (inappropriately) termed "non-local consciousness." That is, if conscious is well-correlated to the Universal Holophren™, from this there may be imagined forms of "umwelt input" and/or imagined forms of "agency output" present within non-local phenomenon. If this is corr

DM Did we hijack "America?" It seems we, the media, societies, and now A.I. have forgotten what was/is simply basic elementary school geography. That is, "America" consists of three areas: north, central and south. Each of these are comprised of multiple countries. However, the United States has changed (usurped, stolen?) its name to being America, and seems to have forgotten all the rest of the "Amercian Countries." Your thoughts and perspectives on this matter? Is this sim

In a new book, Wharton's Jerry Wind and his co-authors argue that creativity is a learnable skill that becomes more powerful when paired with intelligent machines.

Business professor Christian Busch makes the case that serendipity is a skill, resulting from a mindset that allows you to see and act on opportunities in seemingly unrelated facts or events.

DM Upon a walk in a forest today, I was considering the diversity of tree leaf shapes, and how each species of tree seems to maintain these shapes. I realize there are many reasons beyond my imagination for this persistent variation. However, I surmise there may be (at least) two primary factors: optimal functional efficiency and optimal environmental durability. So considering the southeastern U.S. forest in which I was walking (which appeared to be relatively mature), and u

DM As many wise people have shared, across a variety of contexts, human social attentiveness and caring (aka: compassion) diminishes as a function of "distance" (broadly defined in numerous ways, not only physical). In other words, self-care and immediate family care typically reside at our "care epicenter," ...while our "extended concern, attention and care" for all others suffers varying degrees of decline, thus encompasses incremental reduction of moral social thought, ac

No one will deny that marriage is hard. In fact, there’s evidence it’s getting even harder. This week on the show, we revisit a favorite episode about the history of marriage and how it has evolved over time. We talk with historian Stephanie Coontz and psychologist Eli Finkel, and explore ways we can improve our love lives — including by asking less of our partners.

DM Good morning Claude. How might theTeilhard de Chardin's construct of a "Noosphere" relate, correlate, or have relevance to our recent conversations, and the many factors thereof (such as: Pantakinesis™, the Universal Holophren™ and the fractals thereof, Non-local consciousness discoveries and their potential relationships to post-death consciousness, Fitness=Truth™ and definition of truths as being personal, etc.). Good morning! What a rich synthesis question! Having revie

“What’s happening now has, in fact, been happening since the very invention of language and writing.”

DM So, it seems by combining our last conversation (re: "non-local consciousness," and the role GABA plays in consciousness "restraint" during life), ..and the content of our other related past conversations, ... we may have arrived at plausible, even logical, hypothesis: That is, the end of life (aka: physical death) may be but a Vanishing Point "Portal" for consciousness to enter a new dimension(s?) of Pantakinesis™ . I do realize we've little or no solid empirical or evid

The Nobel Prize was awarded to economists Joel Mokyr, Philippe Aghion and Peter Howitt, who study the effects of creative destruction and innovation on growth.

Going along with an untruth for fear of disagreeing with others is a form of self-betrayal that will make you miserable. Excerpt: "What had kept the U.S.S.R. population in chains for so long was what the author and scientist Todd Rose has termed a “collective illusion,” precisely this phenomenon of people holding an opinion that is widely shared but that they believe is theirs alone—thus staying silent from fear of persecution or rejection."
