Give someone a fish, they eat for a day. Teach them to fish, they eat for a lifetime. Train them to craft well-designed prompts in ChatGPT and they generate a new business name, website and marketing campaigns for a new, sustainable fishing business. They feed their village.

An obituary for the man who saved North Carolina from nuclear disaster

Jack ReVelle found and defused two nuclear bombs that accidentally fell on North Carolina. He couldn’t talk about it for 50 years. He fought the VA to prove his cancer was caused by radiation exposure. He died, quietly, 3 years ago today. Here’s his story:

Dr. Jack ReVelle disarmed two hydrogen bombs that accidentally fell near Goldsboro during the Cold War. But a military career of cleaning up nuclear accidents may have cut his life short.
