NEWSTALK 1010 Science Expert Dan Riskin brings Jerry the top science stories of the week. Jerry addresses how we solve problems, and how people always think they are correct.

I. "Telescopic altruism" is a supposed tendency for some people to ignore those close to them in favor of those further away. Like its cousin "virtue signaling", it usually gets used to own the libs. Some lib cares about people in Gaza - why? Shouldn't she be thinking about her friends and neighbors instead? The only possible explanation is that she's an evil person who hates everyone around her, but manages to feel superior to decent people by pretending to "care" about foreigners who she'll never meet. This collapses upon five seconds' thought. Okay, so the lib is angry about the Israeli military killing 50,000 people in Gaza. Do you think she would be angry if the Israeli military killed 50,000 of her neighbors? Probably yes? Then what's the problem? "But vegetarians care about animals more than humans!" Okay, yeah, they sure do get mad about a billion pigs kept for their entire lives in cages too small to turn around in, then murdered and eaten. Do you think they'd care if a billion of their closest friends were kept for their entire lives in cages too small to turn around in, then murdered and eaten? I dunno, seems bad. Maybe there is some possible comparison where some altruist cares about some set of foreigners more than a comparable set of countrymen? The war in Gaza killed 50,000 people, but the opioid crisis kills a bit over 50,000 Americans per year - is everyone who cares about Gaza exactly equally concerned about the opioid crisis? No, but there's a better explanation - people care about dramatic deaths in big explosions more than boring health crises, regardless of where they happen. Everyone, lib and con alike, cared more about 9-11 than about a hundred opioid crises, even though the former only killed 4% as many people as the latter. And even the people who care about the opioid crisis usually can't bring themselves to care about anything on the List Of Top US Causes Of Death, which are all extra-boring things like diabetes. Once you match like to like, nope, it's pretty hard to find a "telescopic altruism" example that stands out from the general background of people having weird priorities. Nearly everyone cares about people close to them more than people far away. If there's a lib who would attend a Gaza protest instead of getting their deathly-ill kid emergency medical care, I haven't met them - and the "telescopic altruism" crowd certainly hasn't provided evidence of their existence. Instead, the people who care about their neighbors 1,000,000x times more than Gazans point to the people who 'only' care about their neighbors 1,000x times more than Gazans and say "Look! Those guys care about Gazans more than their neighbors! Get 'em!" in order to avoid any debate about whether a million or a thousand or whatever is the right multiplier. https://www.astralcodexten.com/p/against-the-concept-of-telescopic

On today's Party for Two, Bob Richardson, NEWSTALK 1010 contributor and public affairs consultant, joins Jerry to break down the top stories of the day. Jerry then looks at a promise fulfilled by Mark Carney. Provinces are on track to allow cross‑border alcohol sales by next month.

"I think there will come a point where you get excessive, you swing too far on the individual side of the spectrum, and then it becomes advantageous to group together again, and you become more fulfilled, more happy, more culturally flourishing in collectives again." "I think there's a resurgence of the desire for people to build tribes, communities, even fucking network state, even microstates, and saying that we're going to do this, and we're going to really group together because getting 10,000, 100,000, million people, 10 million people of a similar mindset, similar ideology, similar vision for the world is way more powerful than individuals doing it." ~ Aleks Svetski In this Chat, Svetski and I talk about something I think a lot of people feel but don't say out loud: the internet just doesn't feel as real as it used to. We cover learned helplessness, micro-echo chambers, the collapse of trust, and why the future of social life may look a lot more like curated groups, in-person communities, and small circles of people you actually know. So this episode isn't a standard industry update, but more of an honest, slightly cynical, and deeply hopeful look at why the best way to handle a world that feels increasingly fake is to double down on the things that are undeniably, physically real.

Physicists studying a distant galaxy using a telescopic technique called gravitational lensing, or telescopic magnification, have discovered over 40 previously unknown stars. The discovery, published in Nature Astronomy, shows how these stars were behaving eight billion years ago, giving a glimpse into the population of stars at 'cosmic noon' - the Middle Ages of the Universe. The research was led by the Centre for Frontier Science at Chiba University, in Japan, and involved over 45 international partners. In the UK this was led by Durham University's Centre for Extragalactic Astronomy and involved the Jodrell Bank Centre for Astrophysics, Manchester University. New telescopic magnification trick to discover over 40 new stars The international team used observations from the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) and gravitational lensing to study a galaxy known as the Dragon Arc, located behind a massive cluster of galaxies called Abell 370. In gravitational lensing a foreground galaxy cluster bends the light from a more distant object and magnifies it, allowing scientists to study the distant object (here the Dragon Arc galaxy). Due to its gravitational lensing effect, Abell 370 stretches the Dragon Arc's signature spiral into an elongated shape - like a hall of mirrors of cosmic proportions. Using this technique, and high-resolution images from the JWST, taken across a full year, the team was able to identify 44 previously unknown stars in the Dragon Arc. They observed that the brightness of these individual stars changed over the course of the study due to variations in the gravitational lensing landscape. The findings show what this galaxy is made of in a way not previously achieved. They also tell us more about dark matter - a mysterious substance that binds together galaxies, creating the environment for stars, planets and life to exist. Dr David Lagattuta from the Centre for Extragalactic Astronomy at Durham University said: "When the team made this discovery, we knew that, given the size of the dots seen in the JWST images, the most logical explanation was that these were individual stars, seen for the first time, which is a hugely exciting discovery. "We know these are stars that have not been seen before by comparing them to previous image of the Dragon Arc which do not show these bright dots. "Other possibilities such as these findings being a cluster of stars or exploding supernovae simply did not fit the data. "It would be a huge coincidence to find so many supernovae all in the same galaxy and all exploding at the same time. Supernovae also tend to suppress star formation, but spectroscopy tells us the Dragon Arc is still actively forming stars. "We also reasoned that these objects had to be individual stars, rather than star clusters, since the size of what we're seeing (after accounting for the extreme lensing magnification) is much too small to fit in the tens of hundreds of bright stars in a star cluster at once. Many of the stars identified through this study are 'red supergiants', a type of star that has typically been very difficult to identify outside of the Milky Way. This is because they are covered in a layer of cosmic 'dust' making them almost invisible to telescopes. The JWST enabled the research team to peer through this dust more easily, revealing the hidden stars inside. Professor Mathilde Jauzac from the Centre for Extragalactic Astronomy and the Institute for Computational Cosmology at Durham University said: "This is the first time, that we are aware of, that so many stars have been discovered in one cluster. This finding enables us to see what the galaxy is made of in ways not possible before. "This provides a fascinating and unique view into the behaviour of stars at the critical 'cosmic noon', the Middle Ages of the Universe. "We know that in the early stages of the Universe there is lots of gas and early 'protostars' and then by nine to 10 billion years ago star formation peaks and everythin...

The "Telescopic Observation" provides an insightful overview of a strategic framework designed to enhance the SWOT (Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities, Threats) analysis by offering a more structured approach to examining an organization's internal and external environments. It emphasizes the need for a more focused, inclusive, and systematic methodology to better understand business environments and strategically plan for success. The framework, developed in mid-1999, has been tested across various organizational settings, proving its utility in bringing distant or complex aspects into closer, more analyzable view, akin to a telescope. This process involves a dual-matrix system that functions like a funnel, gathering and filtering information for effective analysis and strategy formulation, highlighting its innovative approach to strategic planning. ************ About the Show The Defenders of Business Value Podcast combines nearly 31 years of valuation and exit planning expertise working with business owners. Ed Mysogland has a mission and vision to help business owners understand the value of their business and make it a salable asset. Most of the small business owner's net worth is locked in the company, and to unlock it, a business owner has to sell it. Unfortunately, the odds are against business owners that they won't be able to sell their companies because they don't know what creates a saleable asset. Ed interviews experts who help business owners prepare, build, preserve, and one-day transfer value with the sale of the business.   ************ For past guests, please visit https://www.defendersofbusinessvalue.com/ Follow Ed: Connect on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/defenders-of-business-value Twitter: https://twitter.com/sellabizpod Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/defendersofbusinessvalue/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/bvdefenders

In a week where global heat records have melted, we find out how that can make fish life-threateningly stupid. We also dive a little deeper to find the part of the ocean where a little heat proves life-enhancing. And we bring you boring science… no, not in that way. Find out what tree rings can tell us about ancient civilizations and past climates. Also, a new Japanese mission aims to park nice and neatly on the moon – how different is that from the famous first effort from the Apollo 11 team? We hear about an unwelcome Delhi resident that's taking years off locals lives – air pollution. And what is a “supervolcano” and how likely is it that one ruins our run as dominant species on this planet?
