What do thunderstorms and artificial intelligence have in common? Uncertainty, unpredictability, and the reality that you can't ignore what's already here. In this episode of the Disrupt Education Podcast, Peter Hostrawser and Alli Dahl reflect on their conversation with futurist Rachel Mann and unpack what AI is really doing to education right now.From the overwhelming pace of change to the fear many educators are feeling, this conversation gets real about what it means to teach and learn in a world that refuses to slow down. The discussion dives into why preparing students for one future is no longer enough, why human skills like communication and critical thinking are becoming premium assets, and how education must shift from control to adaptability.You will hear how AI is reshaping classrooms, redefining what it means to be “prepared,” and forcing educators to rethink everything from grading to curriculum design. The episode also explores the tension between moving too fast and not moving at all, and why the answer might be to experiment, get messy, and learn alongside students.If education waits for certainty, it will fall behind. The future is already here, and the real question is not if schools will change, but how fast they are willing to adapt.Powered by YouScience Brightpath.YouScience Brightpath, the next generation platform helping students make personalized decisions as they move from education to career.

A Clare short term let host is warning this county's industry is still facing serious uncertainty ahead of new regulations coming into effect at the end of the year. The Department of Tourism has confirmed that all short-term let hosts will be required to register their properties with Fáilte Ireland between December 1st and 31st. It means many providers will have to meet new regulations to secure planning permission, while short-term lets will be restricted in towns like Ennis and Shannon where the population is above 20,000. Voluntary AirBnB Lead for Clare, Limerick and Tipperary Lorna Cahill says they still don't know what the compliance issues are.

Though our lives are filled with uncertainty, we're less tolerant of it than ever, says journalist Simone Stolzoff, author of the new book “How to Not Know: The Value of Uncertainty in a World that Demands Answers.” Surrounded by prediction markets, statistics and the world's knowledge on our phones, we think we should always be certain – in who we are, what we believe and what the “right” choice is. But Stolzoff says that accepting and even appreciating uncertainty can help us be more tolerant, humble and ready to take on life's curveballs.

Bill Whitelaw, executive director of Rextag and a fellow with the Energy Futures Lab, says the updated Alberta–Ottawa energy MOU is designed to create enough certainty to attract private investment into a proposed West Coast bitumen pipeline. While the agreement raises Alberta's effective industrial carbon price to $130 a tonne by 2040, he argues investors will be paying closer attention to the future floor price beginning in 2030, since that is what will ultimately shape long-term capital decisions. He also warns Indigenous consultation, legal challenges, public buy-in, and doubts around the Pathways carbon capture proposal could still derail the project.The Hub is Canada's fastest-growing independent digital news outlet.Subscribe to our YouTube channel to get our latest videos: https://www.youtube.com/@TheHubCanadaSubscribe to The Hub's podcast feed to get our best content when you are on the go:https://tinyurl.com/3a7zpd7e (Apple) https://tinyurl.com/y8akmfn7 (Spotify) Want more Hub?

In a world obsessed with answers, author Simone Stolzoff makes the case that having uncertainty isn't the problem, and that the power of not knowing may be the solution in his new book, "How to Not Know: The Value of Uncertainty in a World that Demands Answers."

Did you know our brains are wired to fear uncertainty MORE than suffering? The good news is that in the same way you can build muscles, you can build your tolerance for the unknown. When you're comfortable with uncertainty, you'll be less anxious, go after more opportunities, find more success, and make better decisions. And that is exactly what you're going to learn how to do today.  My guest is Simone Stolzoff, a famous journalist and best-selling author, who dives into the learnings and stories from his new book How To Not Know: The Value of Uncertainty in a World That Demands Answers.

My guest today is Krishna Rao, the CFO of Anthropic. The center of our conversation is how he navigates the decision around procuring and allocating compute, which he describes as the canvas on which everything else gets built. We talk about what he calls the cone of uncertainty, the three chip platforms Anthropic uses fungibly across Trainium, TPUs, and GPUs, and the daily meetings they run to allocate compute between model development, internal use, and serving customer demand. He explains why the returns to frontier intelligence keep getting higher, especially in enterprise, and how Anthropic thinks about the line between platform and application and why they choose to build their own products like Claude Code. Krishna has such a unique seat watching one of the fastest growing businesses in history, and he is generous in sharing what he has learned since joining the company two years ago.

These strategies incorporate interactive, color-coded clinical scenarios for students to demonstrate clinical reasoning in the face of uncertainty.

Why does not knowing feel worse than bad news? How to Not Know author Simone Stolzoff shows us how to make uncertainty work for us, not against us.Full show notes and resources can be found here: jordanharbinger.com/1326What We Discuss with Simone Stolzoff:Certainty feels like wisdom but often isn't — Phil Tetlock found the average expert predicting the future is about as accurate as a dart-throwing chimpanzee, yet we keep mistaking confidence for competence and rewarding the loudest voice in the room.Our brains are wired for the savanna, not the spreadsheet. The same alarm bells that once warned us about rustling bushes now fire over phone storage decisions, leaving us anxious about choices that have almost nothing to do with survival.We hate ambiguity so much we'd choose guaranteed pain over uncertainty — one study found people facing a 50 percent chance of a shock felt more stressed than those facing 100 percent. Not knowing whether you'll lose your job hurts as much as actually losing it.Intolerance for uncertainty traps us in mediocre jobs, mediocre relationships, and mediocre lives. The "safe" choice quietly becomes the costly one, because the breakthroughs — entrepreneurial, creative, personal — all live on the other side of not knowing.Treat uncertainty tolerance as a muscle you can train. Take a new route to work, order the unfamiliar dish, run small experiments, write down your predictions, and trust your future self to handle future problems — that version of you will have more context than the one worrying today.And much more...And if you're still game to support us, please leave a review here — even one sentence helps!

This week, we explore two forces that shape every creative journey: constraint and uncertainty. Drawing on the remarkable artistic reinventions of Hokusai, we look at how creative legends transitioned from running from the box to thriving within it—and how that same process plays out in creative work today.Our first guest, David Epstein, author of Inside the Box, systematically dismantles the myth of the blank canvas and shows why true creative breakthroughs happen inside carefully constructed boundaries. He shares frameworks used by artistic innovators and practical strategies for leaders and teams to define the right limits—especially in an era of generative AI and limitless toolsets.We then talk with Simone Stolzoff, whose book How Not to Know tackles the fog of uncertainty head-on. He makes the case that tolerating, and even harnessing, uncertainty is not a liability but the lifeblood of all meaningful creative work. Together, David and Simone reveal why “embracing the box” and “rowing in the fog” are not problems to solve, but the permanent address of anyone doing real creative work.Five Key LearningsIntentional Constraints Fuel Creativity: Constraints are not the enemy; they're the engine. Strategic limits—on format, palette, or process—block the most familiar solutions and force genuinely new connections.Define the Boundaries Early: Projects that begin with rapid execution but no clear boundaries almost always bog down. Slow, deliberate thinking at the outset (setting priorities and constraints) leads to faster, more focused execution.Constraint is not Suffocation—It's Clarity: The most productive creative environments, whether in art, business, or writing, use narrow briefs and paired constraints to drive original outcomes.Our Tolerance for Uncertainty Is Eroding: As answers become more instantly available, we lose the ability to sit with the unknown. Microdosing uncertainty—through small experiments and unfamiliar choices—helps rebuild that vital tolerance.Progress is Acting in the Fog: The work that matters is rarely created in total freedom or certainty. Leaders who admit what they don't know and take action anyway (with humility and open curiosity) model the mental flexibility required to innovate.Get full interviews and bonus content for free!

Judges, geopolitics, and election maps collide as Washington and Beijing tensions rise. DESCRIPTION Today on AmperWave Daily: explosive claims about judicial reform battles, escalating accusations over redistricting disputes, and a high-stakes diplomatic push as Marco Rubio joins Donald Trump on a China visit involving major U.S. officials and business leaders, including Elon Musk. Meanwhile, tensions with China and the Chinese Communist Party intensify, as claims of foreign influence, sanctions, and global power struggles dominate the conversation. Back home, a heated debate unfolds over redistricting rulings, judicial authority, and whether political actors are pushing reforms that critics say could reshape the U.S. court system.

Fear often grows in the space between questions and answers.In this episode of Good Question, we explore ambiguity—why uncertainty can feel so overwhelming, how the pressure to “get it right” fuels anxiety, and what it looks like to move forward without having every answer.Plus, you'll hear practical ways to stay grounded, encouragement to slow down, and wisdom so you can take the next step with faith.

In this episode we continue the This Might Be Hard To Hear Series- we talk about the pressure so many women carry to figure out their purpose, have a plan, and feel certain about where life is going. We dive into the idea that maybe your purpose isn't one specific thing to discover, achieve, or perfectly define,but instead to fully experience your life while you're here. Uncertainty, disappointment, joy, grief, growth, and change are experiences are often the very things shaping you into who you're becoming. If you've been feeling behind, lost, or weighed down by the pressure to have it all figured out, this episode is a reminder that you are not failing....you are in fact, living!!!Book a Complimentary Consultation with Kaitlynn hereConnect with Kaitlynn on IG {Thank you for leaving a rating or review here}

Have you ever struggled with a problem—only to have the answer suddenly appear when you stopped trying? It feels almost like magic, but it's actually your brain working in a very specific way when you step back. https://drexel.edu/now/archive/2016/March/Insight_Correctness/ We all want to know what's going to happen next. But life doesn't work that way. In fact, the real challenge may not be uncertainty itself—but our growing discomfort with it. Simone Stolzoff, journalist and author of How to Not Know: The Value of Uncertainty in a World that Demands Answers (https://amzn.to/428rpWb), explains why we crave certainty, why that craving can make life harder, and how learning to tolerate—and even embrace—uncertainty can change the way you experience the world. You've probably heard that your health is shaped by both your genes and your lifestyle. But how much control do you really have? Are some outcomes unavoidable—or can your daily choices actually override genetic risk? Dr. Florence Comite, endocrinologist and expert in longevity and precision medicine, has spent decades studying how to optimize health at the individual level. In our conversation, she explains how genes influence your future, where they don't, and how understanding your personal biology can help you make smarter decisions to improve health and extend lifespan. She is author of Invincible: Defy Your Genetic Destiny to Live Better, Longer (https://amzn.to/3Pir404). In the middle of a tense conversation, it's easy for things to escalate quickly. But there's a simple three-word phrase that can instantly shift the tone—turning conflict into something more productive and less combative.

Guest Simone Stolzoff, journalist and author of the new book, How to Not Know: The Value of Uncertainty in a World that Demands Answers, says we are living through what the World Health Organization calls a “polycrisis” — overlapping economic, political, technological, and personal disruptions that are leaving many of us feeling anxious, untethered, and desperate for answers.But what if the goal isn't to eliminate uncertainty?What if the real skill is learning how to live with it?Simone argues that our obsession with certainty — whether in our careers, relationships, finances, or identities — may actually be making us more anxious, less adaptable, and less fulfilled.In this conversation, we talk about:Why uncertainty tolerance is decliningThe surprising psychology behind layoffs and career anxietyWhy savings can create emotional flexibility, not just financial securityHow to stop tying your self-worth to your job titleThe dangers of chasing a “dream job”Why curiosity may be one of the most important skills in the AI eraAnd how becoming a parent forced Simone to practice what he preachesLearn more about Farnoosh's upcoming literary workshop Book to Brand.

If you've ever wanted God to just tell you his plan— give you the timeline, the clarity, the step-by-step guide — then Mark chapter 13 is going to both challenge you and, I think, ultimately free you. This is one of the most debated, over-interpreted chapters in all of the Gospels. Jesus launches into this long teaching about the destruction of the temple, persecution, false messiahs, and signs in the sky. It has sent a lot of people down a very deep rabbit hole of end-times speculation. And I want us to resist that today, because I think when we do, we find something so much more useful for our actual lives. Jesus wraps this entire chapter together with a story. A man goes on a long trip, leaves his servants with instructions, and tells the gatekeeper to keep watch — because no one knows when the master is coming home. That's it. The actual takeaway in this passage is not certainty about exactly what's going to happen. It's not full clarity about what the end times mean, what all these things are going to mean. Jesus is asking us to be attentive. He's telling us what He actually needs from us: keep watch. Stay in your instructions. Don't fall asleep. We also talk about what it would have felt like for the disciples to hear Jesus say the temple was going to be destroyed — a building so massive that a single stone could weigh 600 tons, so blinding white and gold that it looked like a snowstorm in the distance. It would have been like someone walking through New York City in July of 2001 and saying, "Those towers are coming down in three months." Unthinkable. And yet it happened — in AD 70, exactly as Jesus said. And here's what I find genuinely remarkable: the persecution Jesus warned His disciples about? It came true for every single one of them. He said, when you are arrested — not if. And yet not one of them walked away. That kind of faithfulness under that kind of pressure? It is one of the most compelling arguments for the reality of the resurrection that I know. So what does this mean for you today? Not when is Jesus coming back — but where is He asking you to keep watch right now? What instructions has He already given you that you haven't fully acted on yet? That's the question this chapter is really asking. Want More?

Uncertainty is really up in the air right now. Many of us are navigating periods of intense existential questioning. About our work, relationships, and place in a world that's changing at a pace that feels almost impossible to keep up with.What's shifted is that this isn't just an individual exploration anymore. The collective is asking these questions now, and for those of us who have been sitting with these kinds of questions for a long time, we're feeling the amplification of everyone else beginning to ask them too. Sometimes in ways that look a little like an allergic reaction

What happens when the career you worked so hard to build suddenly feels uncertain? In this episode, I'm talking about the fear, overwhelm, and identity spiral so many working moms are experiencing right now as AI rapidly changes industries and job security. But instead of teaching you how to “hold on tighter,” I'm walking you through how to stay grounded, calm, and strategic in the middle of uncertainty. I share my own experience leaving the safety of a paycheck to start my coaching business, the mindset shift that changed everything for me, and the exact three things you actually can control when life feels wildly unpredictable. In this episode, we unpack:Why uncertainty itself is not what creates overwhelm How AI disruption is uniquely impacting women in leadership and tech The dangerous trap of trying to control the uncontrollable The 3 things you always have control over in uncertain seasons Practical tools to regulate your nervous system and stay grounded Work with me:Ambitious & Balanced: www.rebeccaolsoncoaching.com/ambitiousandbalanced Book your Break Free From Stress Strategy Call (with free Quiz!): www.ambitiousandbalanced.com/break-free-from-stress Download the free Daily Kickstart: www.ambitiousandbalanced.com/daily-kickstart

“The Fear of Uncertainty”No More Fear:Living Life with a Living SaviorColossians 3:1-4In this message from our No More Fear series, we explore how the resurrection of Jesus gives believers confidence in an uncertain world. Walking through Colossians 3:1–4, this sermon reminds us that certainty is not found in controlling outcomes or eliminating variables, but in being united with a living Savior. Because our lives are hidden with Christ in God, we can face fear, instability, and uncertainty with confidence, clarity, and hope. Learn what it means to set your mind on things above, trust Christ as your constant, and rest in the security of His finished work and ongoing reign.

Uncertainty doesn't require a perfect strategy. It requires a willingness to act. In Episode 268 of The Mindset Game® podcast, I spoke with Meridith Elliott Powell, Hall of Fame Keynote Speaker, Business Growth Strategist, and Bestselling Author. In our last conversation (Episode 176), we explored how to turn uncertainty into an advantage. This time, we went deeper into perspective, focus, and the power of the mind in navigating change. We explored what actually separates those who get stuck from those who make progress in uncertain times. In this conversation, we discuss: • Why waiting for certainty often leads to more delay and missed opportunity • How clear vision and values guide decisions when you don't have full answers • How to focus on what you can control and let go of what you can't To learn more about Meridith's work, visit valuespeaker.com or connect with her on LinkedIn.

To be alive at this time means to be present as many familiar patterns simply dissolve. One major crisis quickly replaces another, so that both collective and personal levels of uncertainty grow day by day. It turns out that uncertainty is a powerful energy that makes us feel deeply vulnerable as well as susceptible to more intense levels of anxiety. It is also true that what shatters familiar patterns can also awaken us to a greater sense of imagination and lead to more authentic ways of seeing and being. When faced with meaningful challenges and great uncertainty, we are actually closer to finding the key that unlocks the psychic house and gives us greater access to our inner gifts and the way our soul would have us go in the world. While we may feel isolated in these troubled times, we are not simply alone. Rather, our souls are the natural source of ancient wisdom that keeps being forgotten and of archetypal energies that can guide and embolden us. In the end, the real risk in life has always been becoming our genuine self amidst the troubles and uncertainties of existence.     Thank you for listening to and supporting Living Myth.
