Monday Inspiration: What poker can teach us about life, expiring vs. permanent skills, why do conspiracy theories exist?

This weekend, it was cold, but I wasn't blessed with the weather, so I went out to watch a movie. As a result of a movie fan, I had never seen Stanley Cubrick's 1968 masterpiece science fiction movie "2001 Galaxy Journey" until this Sunday.

MARIA KONNIKOVA is a writer, psychologist, and experienced poker player. MARIA's latest work, The Biggest Bluff, states that she learned in the process of being an experienced poker player. With this skill, she became able to think not only about poker games, but also about psychology, processing the conclusions, and important impressions to impress.

Why do Conspiracy theories Exist? | CrowdScience | BBC World Service

The rise of conspiracy theories is one of the sad side effects of COVID-19 pandemic. From Kennedy and the lunar landing to area 51 and Illuminati, I was always hypnotized in conspiracy theory. However, some of them look benign, while others are much ominous. But why does the conspiracy theory exist? What role do you play in society? And why do people believe in conspiracy by ignoring the overwhelming amount of evidence that there is no controversy?
