OM DENNE EPISODE
Byron Reese wrote one of my favorite books so I wouldn’t have to. Infinite Progress makes an optimistic, accessible case for using technology to solve huge problems, and I give it to everybody.
We also get into The Fourth Age and Wasted, where a recycle bin can make people use more cups. That weird incentive exposes the real problem: feel-good rituals do not scale. Clean, cheap energy does.

Are you ready to get weird? The Telepathy Tapes makes an extraordinary claim: some nonspeaking autistic people appear able to receive information that nobody knows how they could get. Plenty of skeptics think the whole thing is bullshit. Plenty of believers skip straight past the experiment. Both r…
