From its life-sustaining energy to its explosive geomagnetic storms, the Sun has many mysteries, says astrophysicist Nour E. Rawafi. He sheds light on NASA’s latest endeavor to better understand our fiery neighbor and its impact on the future of society: sending the cutting-edge Parker Solar Probe deep into the Sun’s atmosphere in humanity’s closest-ever approach to a star.(Recorded at TED2024 on April 17, 2024)

@@AK-ox3mv it fascinates me how this different networks or if I assume this companies of alphabet and others have an interconnected of datas that they trade , and sometimes people says and experience that when they just chat or even said it in person about what are they going to buy , most of the time the product will be sugggested on them via ads on this social flatforms and I have watched a lot of documentaries how this “data” is the new oil, and neuro marketting
Its just kinda terrifying that you are being survey 24/7
Data is what makes this platform profitable and its also about the company of TESLA they are not just selling cars but also data for their autonomous software
Im so sorry if I can’t logically explain my thoughts If I have a time to explain this to you I will but I suggest you watch CNBC, VOX, BUSINESS INSIDER, TED TALK, TED-ED they cover a lot about this topic

It is by far one of the most interesting, groundbreaking, and astonishing speech/presentation on Ted I’ve ever watched.
The storytelling and facts about Sun I get to know is compelling. The footage of Sun made me feel goosebumps. I wasn’t expecting to watch that and it literally shocked me through ecstasy.
Overall this is the example of what impact a simple speech can make.
Really The greatest time to be alive can’t wait to know about the new discovery till December 2024.

I recently sold some of my long-term position and currently sitting on about 250k, do you think Nvidia is a good buy right now or I have I missed out on a crucial buy period, any good stock recommendation on great performing stocks will be appreciated.
