How to Become a Modern Day Polymath

Here's the thing- Becoming a polymath is all about balance and relativity. Figuring out the exact best path for yourself is a journey that only you yourself can undertake. Pursue too many things at one time and you'll spread yourself too thin, only developing a cursory knowledge of subjects. Focus too narrowly and you'll lack the breadth of knowledge that is so characteristic of the renaissance person.

How to Ultralearn Like Tony Stark

2008's Ironman blew me away in its depiction of the swaggering, quippy, and casually genius protagonist Tony Stark, played to perfection by Robert Downey Jr. After the lackluster comic book movies of the 90s and early oughts, I didn't really expect much, but Tony Stark turned out to be a man of science who made everything about physics and engineering seem like the coolest thing you could possibly do. The film inspired in me, as it did for many, an intense curiosity about tech and a desire to understand the world at large. In short, to learn as much as possible.

Although not strictly a biography of Dr. Jennifer Doudna, the book does center on the Nobel prize-winning biochemist and continually returns to her story as she and her lab worked to discover and engineer a system that can perform genome editing.

Is Air Force Basic Training Hard

The short answer to this question is almost surely YES, but it’s all relative. What I mean by that, is that how you perceive the difficulty of your time at basic training will depend on you, your particular strengths and weaknesses, and the set of norms and values you grew up with. For some, Basic will be hard in all of the traditional ways you think of it being hard- lots of PT, getting yelled at all the time, no time to eat, etc.
