Desperate Acts of Capitalism Podcast
63: John Henry Patterson
Sabotage. Intimidation. Disinformation and junk mail campaigns. These were the four horsemen of John H. Patterson, the mad king of Dayton, Ohio. As founder of the National Cash Register Company in 1884, he contributed little to the design of the world's first cash registers. As a marketer and ruthless monopolist, he revolutionized sales practices in the United States, building a sprawling empire that went out of its way to gobble up even the most marginal competitors. In time, his monomania and eccentricities led to his own demise, but his legacy as an industrialist was nothing if not complex. Edited and thumbnail...

O segredo para trocar PRAZERES IMEDIATOS por um FUTURO BRILHANTE | Podcast Sai da Média #186
A verdade, FIVE, é que nós, seres humanos, somos um um “sistema” criado para viver 300 mil anos atrás, tendo que lidar com todos os estímulos e facilidades dos tempos atuais… E como funcionava na pré-história? A hipótese mais aceita diz que nós éramos caçadores e coletores. Caçávamos pequenos animais (aves e peixes) e colhíamos frutas e verduras. Como você já sabe, lá não existia geladeira para guardar os alimentos, não existia mercado para comprar o que faltava e não tinha aplicativo, pra levar a comida quentinha até você. Se uma pessoa via uma árvor...

Resultado: o 1º grupo de ciclistas teve um desempenho abaixo do normal, mesmo sabendo que ingeriram placebo. Isso afetou tanto a mente deles, que diminuiu a performance.
