    The Inspiration of Stephen Hawking

    The-Inspiration-of-Stephen-Hawking Chad McMillan

    As you may have heard, world renowned theoretical physicist, cosmologist, and author Stephen Hawking has passed away.

    If you have followed Mr. Hawking's journey, you may know that in one aspect of his life he experienced a quite physically debilitating challenge, known as ALS, which gradually paralyzed him along his way..

    Despite this, Mr. Hawking persevered in his work to make profound contributions to the global science community, our understanding of the universe, and our experience in it as a whole.

    Today I'd like to take a moment to tip my hat to this trailblazer and his contributions to our world. Thank you, Sir. 

    In this spirit:

    I suggest to you here that no matter who, what or where we perceive ourselves to be, a mere shift in that perspective makes everything possible.

    In honor of Mr. Hawking and this perspective, let's go get it today.

    AI Is Collapsing the Cost of Testing Ideas

    AI matters to me less as a novelty than as a change in the economics of experimentation. Individuals and small teams can now test certain ideas faster and more cheaply than was recently practical.

    Why Reflection Matters More Than Constant Motion

    Momentum feels productive, but without reflection it is easy to repeat the same patterns faster. I value periods of review because they turn experience into learning and motion into direction.
