41. The Launch of Autopilot
The Launch of Autopilot, covering the years 2014 to 2016, provides a detailed look into Elon Musk's determination to develop Tesla's autonomous driving technology, which he envisioned as a bold departure from Google’s lidar-based approach. In the early stages, Musk and Larry Page of Google discussed the possibility of collaboration, but their differing philosophies—especially when it came to artificial intelligence (AI) and its role in self-driving systems—led Musk to pursue Tesla's own unique…-

Chapter XI - Flying Machines Construction And Operation introduces the reader to a vital topic in aviation—how to control the machine with precision and awareness. This chapter goes beyond the mechanical structure and enters the world of real-time decision-making. Flying is not just about lift or propulsion; it’s about command—over altitude, direction, and stability, all at once, under the pilot’s full authority. The operator is expected to act instantly and with confidence, often making rapid…-

Chapter XXII - Flying Machines Construction And Operation brings forward the insights of F. W. Lanchester, whose lecture to the Royal Society of Arts offered a technical and visionary take on aerial navigation. Rather than viewing flight as purely theoretical, he firmly positioned it within the realm of locomotive engineering, emphasizing performance over possibility. He challenged the viability of vertical flight, especially the helicopter, stating that such machines lacked the energy efficiency necessary…

Chapter I - Flying Machines Construction And Operation begins with a detailed account of how the concept of multi-surface flight evolved, laying the groundwork for future breakthroughs in aviation. Octave Chanute opens the discussion by recognizing the early insight of F. H. Wenham, who, in 1866, proposed stacking aeroplanes vertically to expand lift area without excessive weight. His design incorporated silk or canvas stretched over a framework and supported the idea of using multiple wings to lift a…

Chapter 4 of The Longevity Paradox takes an in-depth look at centenarians—those who live to 100 or beyond—and examines the factors contributing to their remarkable lifespans. The chapter opens with entertaining stories about these long-lived individuals, some of whom attribute their longevity to habits that contradict conventional health advice, such as drinking alcohol daily or consuming bacon regularly. While these anecdotes may seem surprising, they challenge common beliefs about aging, suggesting…-

51. Cybertruck
Cybertruck emerged as one of Tesla’s most ambitious projects, a vehicle that challenged every preconceived notion about what a pickup truck should look like and how it should function. In the late 2010s, while competitors focused on refining conventional designs, Elon Musk sought a radical departure from industry norms, driven by a desire to merge cutting-edge technology with extreme durability. His collaboration with Tesla’s chief designer, Franz von Holzhausen, became an exercise in creative…-

Chapter XII - Flying Machines Construction And Operation offers clear, practical guidance for those beginning their journey into the world of aviation. Rather than focusing on dramatic altitude records or sensational feats, this chapter encourages new pilots to prioritize control, safety, and confidence in their first experiences. By drawing on the wisdom of early aviators, the authors present a flight philosophy built around gradual mastery rather than risky experimentation. Most experienced pilots,…

Chapter XXIII - Flying Machines Construction And Operation presents a nuanced view of how innovation, legality, and accessibility intersect in early aviation history. The Wright brothers, known for their groundbreaking contributions to powered flight, make a significant gesture by allowing amateurs and non-commercial users to adopt their patented technology without restriction. This policy encourages experimentation and scientific exploration, as long as the use remains outside of profit-driven exhibitions…

Chapter II - Flying Machines Construction And Operation explores the early stages of aviation by contrasting two major categories of flight—lighter-than-air balloons and heavier-than-air flying machines. Unlike balloons that drift by gas-based lift, true flying machines rely on forward propulsion and airfoil lift, drawing their core principle from birds. The fascination with avian motion inspired early pioneers to imitate nature's balance between wing surface and body weight through mechanical means. Key…

Chapter 5 of Eat Less, Live Longer? The Science of Hunger and Health explores the discovery of rapamycin and its potential impact on human health and longevity. The chapter begins with the author's journey to Easter Island with three companions, drawn by their interest in the origins of this unique compound. Initially extracted from the island’s soil in 1964 by a Canadian research team, rapamycin was further studied by scientist Suren Sehgal, who identified its antifungal properties. What started as a…
