Geeking out on data on flights

Writing here is both a prompt for reflection as it is a prompt to dig deeper into studies and analysis about topics I believe are important.

My process for learning more about these topics – especially around the impact of exponential technologies like renewable energy and artificial intelligence – is to compile links to interesting presentations and articles over time with the goal of going through them over the weekend.

But those weekends show up rarely – if ever.

I tried something different recently – attempting to catch up on all this reading during a couple of the long flights I take during the year. Thanks to inflight wifi becoming more commonplace and reliable, this is possible.

On one such long flight couple weeks ago, I ended up catching up on three months worth of reading. So, if you suddenly see a series of summaries of charts and analysis during these weeks, you know why. :-)

I still love catching the occasional movie. But I appreciate being able to use flight time to geek out on fascinating data.
