    Self-Healing Skin

    Self-Healing Skin

    A new polymer-based material with electrical and magnetic properties that can autonomously heal itself has been demonstrated by NSF-supported chemical engineers at Stanford University.  We speak with co-author Christopher B. Cooper to learn more about this innovative work being done at the Stanford Nano Shared Facilities.

    Gas Stove Ban means MORE Global Warming

    Gas Stove Ban means MORE Global Warming

    It's not about banning stoves but banning gas.  Why would you want to ban the cleanest, best, most ecologically sound cooking fuel on Earth? 

    Because, for the Climate Alarmist, every story has to be a bad news story, and it only takes a little effort to create a negative narrative.   Even this near-perfect fuel is demonized.

     With so much in favor of natural gas and nothing against it, the real story is one not of pollution but of control.

    Commentary on trending issues brought to you with a moderate perspective.

    142: Dr. Anna Lembke | Addicted to Pleasure and Pain

    142: Dr. Anna Lembke | Addicted to Pleasure and Pain

She sits on the board of several state and national addiction-focused organizations, has testified before various committees in the United States House of Representatives and Senate, keeps an active speaking calendar, and maintains a thriving clinical practice. She appeared in the Netflix documentary The Social Dilemma, an unvarnished look at the impact of social media on our lives.

    Topics we cover include exploring dark places, hormesis, resetting our reward pathways, self-binding strategies, the social dilemma, the four properties of addictive substances, the three C’s of addiction, a discussion of Dopamine Nation, and more.

    121: Regenerative Agriculture (Rebroadcast)

    121: Regenerative Agriculture (Rebroadcast)

    David R. Montgomery defines regenerative agriculture as leaving the land better off and more fertile as a consequence of cultivation. David studied geology at Stanford University before earning his Ph.D. in geomorphology at UC Berkeley. Today he teaches at the University of Washington where he studies the evolution of topography and how geological processes shape landscapes and influence ecological systems.

    In this research, he has defined three principles to build soil fertility; minimal disturbance, cover cropping and growing a diversity of crops. David has studied the success of these principles in agricultural systems around the world, from subsistence farmers to large commodity crops in North America. Healthy soils support more crop growth, have less erosion, and even look and smell healthier.

    The author of three books, David is a wealth of information on how soil life impacts plant productivity.

    The Future of AI with Andrew Ng – Intel on AI Season 2, Episode 1

    In this Intel on AI podcast episode guest Andrew Ng joins host Abigail Hing Wen to talk about the future of AI. Artificial intelligence has so much buzz around it, but only a handful of people understand it as deeply as Andrew Ng.

    Andrew brings his perspective as an expert in the field and as global citizen, starting from his days as the founding leader at Google Brain, leading AI at Baidu, and serving as an adjunct professor in computer science at Stanford University. Among Andrew’s other pursuits: being the founder of deeplearning.ai, the founder and CEO of Landing AI, a general partner at AI Fund, and chairman and co-founder of Coursera.

    [Sweet Process Series] Lessons From Unicorns: What to Make Hard and Easy in Your Business with Bob Sutton of Stanford University

    [Sweet Process Series] Lessons From Unicorns: What to Make Hard and Easy in Your Business with Bob Sutton of Stanford University

    Robert (Bob) Sutton is a Professor of Management Science and Engineering at Stanford University. He is the co-founder of the Stanford Technology Ventures Program (STVP) and the Hasso Plattner Institute of Design (the D School). 

    Bob is currently working with Huggy Rao on The Friction Project, where they focus on why companies make the right things too complicated and the wrong things too easy and what to do about it. He's published over 200 articles in academic and popular outlets, and seven of Bob's books have gotten accolades, including being part of the Top 100 Business Books list, New York Times Bestseller, The Wall Street Journal bestseller, and more.

    His books include Hard Facts, Dangerous Half-Truths, And Total Nonsense; The Knowing-Doing Gap; Weird Ideas That Work, The No Asshole Rule, and Good, Bad Boss. He also wrote The Asshole Survival Guide: How to Deal With People Who Treat You Like Dirt and Scaling-Up Excellence.

    In this episode…

    Many companies are doing the opposite of what they need to do in order to scale their business. They make bad things easy and faster to do, while good things pose more challenges and are accomplished at a slower pace. Bob Sutton says that many companies make this mistake in a variety of ways, from creating friction-laden processes to spending a ton of money on billable hours while doing mundane and unproductive tasks.

    So what’s the alternative approach that is making unicorns like Facebook change their perspective? How are top CEOs like Patrick Collison of Stripe accomplishing massive things that would typically take months so quickly?

    Listen to this episode of the Inspired Insider podcast with Dr. Jeremy Weisz as he talks to Stanford professor, best selling author, and in-demand speaker, Bob Sutton, about some of the exciting things he discovered through The Friction Project. They’ll be discussing how top brands like Uber, Google, and Facebook get things done so quickly, how companies can uncomplicate the process for easy tasks, how to avoid making bad things an effortless endeavour, and more. Stay tuned.

    E9: The Lady Who Led the Way

    E9: The Lady Who Led the Way

    Alan shares more stories about his sister, Sandra Day O’Connor, the woman who started Stanford at age 16, graduated from law school at 22, found her way to the Arizona legislature and eventually to Washington, D.C. A most timely conversation. 2020 marks the 100th anniversary of the passage of the 19th Amendment, guaranteeing women the constitutional right to vote. Many women opened doors and paved the way for Justice O’Connor, and she in turn opened doors for future generations of women.
