  • Schools are Ruining Our Students - Antifragile

    Are schools making us dumber? Nassim Taleb coined a famous term a few

    years ago: Antifragile. This encapsulates many concepts in nature and
    other parts of our growth. The term syggests building systems that can
    not only withstand the current problems, but get better with each new
    problem. Hence, facing more problems improves the system.
    To make our children antifragile, they need to face more difficult
    situations. But schools do exactly opposite. Children get punished for
    failing if they face difficult situations. Hence it encourages avoiding
    such situations. Which in turn is making our children less antifragile.
    The video covers various aspects of antifragile with interesting
    examples and information. Learn it all now.

  • People Leave, That's Because of Your Brain - Dunbar's Numbers

    Why you can only have 150 friends. Dunbar's numbers roughly suggest the

    limits of human brains to form relationships. These numbers also
    estimate the intimacy of the relationships. And this is the theory that
    says that you can't have more than 150 friends, more than 5 best and the
    most intimate relationships. It also tries to explain why old
    relationships tend to lose their charm once you form new ones. It's a
    fascinating concept, and you should definitely learn more about it in
    this episode of FutureIQ.
