Surfing, NYC, and the Beginning of Infinity [video]
1 points by jsmedmar 985 days ago
We are lucky we can surf in NYC. It takes me one hour get to the ocean, and since there is no signal in the subway, it's a great opportunity to read.

I made a video about optimism, based on "The Beginning of Infinity," by David Deutsch (https://youtu.be/PiKU6Nm1p8E). The book dives into the endless potential of explanatory knowledge, describing how problems are inevitable but soluble.

As a YC founder, this book has inspired me to keep pushing my startup forward and I strongly recommend it to anyone interested in progress.

I'm posting the video here because there is probably no other place in the internet where someone would spend 5 minutes watching a video about NYC, surfing, and The Beginning of Infinity.
