And you're a sentient murder machine programmed for destruction? Congratulations, you're Murderbot. Come for the pew-pew space battles, stay for the most relatable AI you’ll listen to this century.

Humorous and serious adventures human/bot and everything in between
Revisado: 04-04-25
So easy to build this world in your mind - lots of details and quite long but simple to back up and reset the scene if you need to..,the best part is how the narrator creates distinctive voices. Amazing performance with beloved contrarian Murderbot in charge.

"The Machine Stops" is a short science fiction story. It describes a world in which almost all humans have lost the ability to live on the surface of the Earth. Each individual lives in isolation in a "cell", with all bodily and spiritual needs met by the omnipotent, global Machine. Most humans welcome this development, as they are skeptical and fearful of first-hand experience. People forget that humans created the Machine, and treat it as a mystical entity whose needs supersede their own.

Historia4.5 out of 5 stars 43
Life revolves around learning—in school, at our jobs, even in the things we do for fun. Yet learning is often mysterious. Sometimes it comes fairly effortlessly: quickly finding our way around a new neighborhood or picking up the routine at a new job. In other cases, it’s a slog. We may spend hours in the library, yet still not do well on an exam. We may want to switch companies, industries, or even professions, but not feel qualified to make the leap.

Clarity about best practices using research and histories of a great variety of masters in their fields
Revisado: 05-07-24
Just a few chapters in, but as a fan of author's first book, Ultralearning - it is a pleasure to update strategies and be inspired by compelling detailed examples and methods of mastery. Young is a skilled and passionate narrator on his subject and practices the methods he uncovers in his research.

Well curated excerpts on specific themes
Revisado: 06-30-23
One can't get enough Krishnamurti - especially these recordings. You can feel his urgency to share his wisdom, and his sincerity. I've been listening to him and reading transcripts of his lectures for over 30 years. The more I listen the more deeply I understand and internalize his direct message. This podcast is a very generous project (available free of charge) that distills and preserves his contribution to the world for generations to come.

What will become of our self-destructed planet? The answer shatters all expectations in this subversive speculation from the Hugo Award - winning author of the Broken Earth trilogy. An explorer returns to gather information from a climate-ravaged Earth that his ancestors, and others among the planet’s finest, fled centuries ago. The mission comes with a warning: A graveyard world awaits him. But so do those left behind - hopeless and unbeautiful wastes of humanity who should have died out ages ago.

Terrific

This kind of writing brilliantly & creatively eviscerates popular elitist culture. Full of surprises, rich characters in a compact diamond of a story.

Plutes in the wild
Revisado: 02-24-20
It’s easy to resent the Plutes but this book challenges everything about the way we insulate ourselves from the truth of our ignorance, and our arrogance. It’s painful to have the mask ripped off but there is immense relief in acknowledging how we abandon each other. From that low ground we can begin again to appreciate how little we know about real democracy and how we might begin again.

Chris Hedges has been telling truth to (and against) power since his earliest days as a radical journalist. He is an intellectual bomb-thrower who continues to confront American empire in the most incisive, challenging ways. The kinds of insights he provides into the deeply troubled state of our democracy cannot be found anywhere else.

Extraordinary testimony
Revisado: 02-14-17
Chris Hedges writes and speaks with both heart and intellect. He is a trustworthy guide through the confusion and chaos of US politics. He has borne witness to many wars and the corruption of the deep state and finds so many ways to communicate and serve society with integrity. Read this book or listen to this audio version - it will inspire you in these difficult times.
