WEF’s Mass-Extinction Plan

Another leaked video from the World Economic Forum (WEF) exposes Klaus Schwab and his sinister cronies forwarding their depopulation narrative, shockingly planning a mass-extinction event.

Schwab’s right-hand man, Yuval Noah Harari, recently declared that the WEF considers the vast majority of the human population to be obsolete, useless and redundant. Promoting his new book, Harari said, “What do we need so many humans for?”

Talk about being useless and redundant. Perhaps the best depopulation plan going forward should begin with these sick bastards! Here’s more, courtesy of Jim Crenshaw.

Custom-Made Medicine

Some common life-saving medicines, such as insulin, are made of proteins so large and fragile that they need to be injected instead of ingested as pills. But a new generation of medicine–made from smaller, more durable proteins known as peptides–is on its way. Molecular engineer and TED Fellow Christopher Bahl explains how he’s using computational design to create powerful peptides that could one day neutralize the flu, protect against botulism poisoning and even stop cancer cells from growing.

Dark Net Going Mainstream

There’s a parallel Internet you may not have run across yet, accessed by a special browser and home to a freewheeling collection of sites for everything from anonymous activism to illicit activities. British author and journalist Jamie Bartlett says the dark net is no longer a den for dealers and a hideout for whistleblowers. It’s becoming more of a mainstream phenomenon because of our concern for privacy. Here’s his report on this presentation by TED.

AI Weirder Than You Think

The danger of artificial intelligence isn’t that it’s going to rebel against us, but that it’s going to do exactly what we ask it to do. In this presentation of TED, AI researcher Janelle Shane says sharing the weird, sometimes alarming antics of artificial intelligence algorithms as they try to solve human problems demonstrates why AI doesn’t yet measure up to real brains.

The Future of Food, Agriculture

With the global population projected to reach 9.8 billion by 2050, we need to address one of the most critical challenges of our generation in the next three decades, namely food and agriculture. It begs the question: How are we going to feed everyone? Investment-banker-turned-farmer Stuart Oda points to indoor vertical farming: growing food on tiered racks in a controlled, climate-proof environment. In this episode of TED, Oda explains how this method can maintain better safety standards, save money, use less water and help us provide for future generations.

Why We Believe in Weird Things

Why do people believe in weird things? Stuff like demonic lyrics in “Stairway to Heaven” or the image of the Virgin Mary in cheese sandwiches or on tree barks. Using video, images and music, professional skeptic Michael Shermer explores these and other phenomena, including UFOs and alien sightings in this episode of TED.

Sleep is Your Superpower

Sleep is your life-support system and Mother Nature’s best effort yet at immortality, says sleep scientist Matt Walker. In this deep dive into the science of slumber, Walker shares the wonderfully good things that happen when you get sleep, and the alarmingly bad things that happen when you don’t, for both your brain and body. Learn more in this episode of TED.

Plants That Communicate

Humans and animals are among Earth’s creatures blessed with brains. But can we say the same about plants? Taking sophisticated equipment used to study the brain, neuroscientist Greg Gage hooks up the Mimosa pudica and Venus flytrap to an EKG to demonstrate how plants use electrical signals to convey information, prompt movement, and can even count in this episode of TED.
