We carried on for months with nothing more than a hope that she wouldn't get as big as we knew she could. But every time somebody came over, it was the same thing. Oh my god, she's huge.How big is she going to get. What are you guys going to do with her. It was all the same things that we were wondering ourselves.And that's actually why we call her Esther the Wonder Pig. So, aside from her astonishing rate of growth, which was almost a pound a day at its quickest, her intelligence was becoming increasingly ...

How would you feel if I said that in some ways our society is more sexist than ancient Rome. I'm not saying this is true in every way. Of course, husbands today can't legally kill their wives for drinking wine.But there is one way. If you pick up a modern novel about the Roman Empress Livia Dusilla or about the Bisantine Empress Theodora, they'll probably fall into one of two categories. Either they'll be strong, independent women longing for freedom, or they'll be manipulative, dangerous, dominant over the ...

[Music] We often think creativity comes when we are free, full of time, talent, tools, money, VC funding. But what if our best ideas, they actually come when we are cornered, when we are pushed against a wall, when we are constrained. That is the topic of my talk today.Build like you're broke. The secret power of constraints. I am Abhishek Sony.A little bit about me, I'm a 2x founder.

Hoje quero tratar com vocês o conceito da liderança genuína, o privilégio de morar no coração de alguém. Liderança é uma prática que eu tenho experimentado e estudado durante todos esses anos de trabalho. Desde que me fascinava desde que eu era criança, quando meu pai me falava: "Um dia você vai ser presidente, agora aqui sou pequenininho." Não tinha nada de cara de presidente aí, mas importante era era acreditar, né.Nasci e cresci na Itália de uma família humilde e pobre. Os mais os meus pais não tinham ti ...

This was me five months ago. This was me two days later. This was me 3 months ago. And well, this is me now.To give you some context, 5 months ago, my family and I went on a skiing trip. I've been skiing since I was 6 years old. And so naturally, I assumed this trip would be no different to the others.Except it wasn't. It was shorter. On day two, I lost control of my skis on dangerous terrain and was hurtled halfway down the mountain.I was then carried down by ski patrol and taken to the nearest hospital wh ...

Imagine two patients. Let's call them patient A and patient B. Patient A arrives for her routine mamogram.She feels perfectly fine, but an AI system reviewing her scan flags a tiny early stage tumor. So small no doctor noticed. Thanks to that early detection, she's treated promptly and her life is saved.Patient B arrives at A&E with shortness of breath. An AI model trained on thousands of past cases concludes his condition is anxiety. The doctor, trusting the AI, sends him home.Hours later, he dies of a hea ...

[Applause] Have you ever stopped to think about how much control you truly have over your actions and decisions. Are we really the masters of our own fate, making choices free from influence, or are we subtly shaped by forces beyond our awareness. Free will is the ability to make choices that aren't entirely determined by prior causes or external pressures.But how often do we really exercise this free will. When you really examine your choices, how many are truly free and how many are swayed by your environ ...

Hi everyone, I'm Deinda Core. Think back to when you were 14 years old. Imagine if you were shown a picture of someone that you had to get married to. Or imagine if it happened to your daughter or to your sister. How would you feel? I'm sure you would be enraged. Child marriage is happening all over the world and we have to help end this barbaric practice. I was born and raised in the United Kingdom. That's me when I was when I was little. My parents moved from the Punjab when they were really young and the ...

What if your next big breakthrough came from a bowl of letter soup blasting power pickle idea noodle or dream burrito. But these are not just random words but rather breakthroughs waiting to be combined. But how.Well, to answer that, I must take you back in time and share with you the story of how a bowl of letter soup transforms my life and my business. Growing up, Wednesdays are my favorite day of the week, but it's not because of time with friends, my favorite TV show, and definitely not because of schoo ...
