1. The universe is vast, mostly empty, and runs on fundamental laws that we barely understand but exploit well.
2. Life is a self-replicating, entropy-defying phenomenon that emerged through chemistry, evolved through selection, and adapts through intelligence.
3. Humans are social primates who dominate the planet through cooperation, tool-making, storytelling, and an insatiable drive for meaning.
4. Societies form through shared beliefs, laws, and trade, but oscillate between progress and collapse due to power, greed, and ignorance.
5. Technology is humanity’s amplifier, accelerating knowledge, comfort, and destruction in equal measure, with unintended consequences at every turn.
6. Economies are trust-based systems of resource distribution, prone to cycles of boom, bust, innovation, and inequality.
7. Morality is a human construct, evolving with culture, often conflicting between collective well-being and individual freedom.
8. Knowledge is a fractal—deeper the dive, more there is to know—yet most wisdom is rediscovery of old truths in new contexts.
9. The future is uncertain but shaped by the tension between human ingenuity and our own worst tendencies.
10. The meaning of life? Whatever gets you up in the morning and lets you sleep at night.
