0:00.0	Truly exceptional minds balance the traits of confidence and humility.
0:05.8	There are some that are purely egoic and they just really have a self-fulfillment that's unmatched and some of them deserve it.
0:13.2	But the surprising thing is I found very few of those types of people.
0:15.9	Most people are extremely humble.
0:17.9	They almost feel that serendipity, luck, played a huge role in it. Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic.
0:32.0	Open the pod bay door. is indistinguishable from magic.
0:36.0	Open the pod bay doors now. Brian, your podcast into the impossible and your work in general.

1:41.8	and that at first it was realized by Einstein and
1:44.8	Minkowski and many others that space and time were essentially unified
1:50.6	together in what was later called space time.
1:54.0	And that is now, instead of only addressing a point by its three dimensional coordinates up down,
