    Absolutely loved this TED Talk! Ikey Ajavon really nails the difference between sleep and true rest. It’s such an eye-opener to think about how we spend our downtime. Can’t wait to share this with friends!

    I dislike the current theme of surrounding yourself with positive people. No one who is authentic is positive all the time. A true friend stays with you when you are positive, and in the down times too.

      I don’t think he meant that exactly, though. I think he meant those who truly drain you because of their constant negativity.

    While the ideas presented here are very noble, I doubt that a typical person who has a regular Job would have enough time for each of those
    8 hr sleep
    9 hr work
    2 hr commute
    2 hr eating breakfast/lunch/dinner

    You are left with around 3 hours to yourself, which are not a lot do anything but either go to gym/ catch up with friends (assuming you guys are free at the same time) or doom scroll

    Btw I haven’t included events like you have to do your own laundry, get your groceries and other things normal humans do to sustain themselves.

    Obviously the nature of your job has a huge part in all this which can help doing more of the types of relaxation, but normal corporate jobs are not over even after you have logged out, your phone can ring anytime if there is an issue coz as you go up the ladder you have to be always available 🥹🫥. In that case even sensory isolation/relaxation is a luxury, rest are just a myth at this point.

Flock Safety sits at the intersection of an increasingly intense debate around the spread of surviellance technology, AI, and who’s using all of that information and to what ends. Founder and CEO Garrett Langley spoke at TechCrunch Disrupt 2026 to defend his stance that Flock is a net positive in the face of concerns about its work monitoring communities, cities, and enabling data sharing across law enforcement agencies.

As a sign of that backlash, as Langley spoke on stage, a protest against Flock was taking place outside of Moscone West in San Francisco.

TechCrunch’s Equity podcast team took over the Builders Stage Tuesday morning to tackle a growing challenge for the AI industry: What happens when AI agents go off-script, and who’s responsible for keeping them in check?

Recent incidents, from Anthropic pulling internal evaluations off the live internet after agents misbehaved to Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella calling for an “emergency brake” on AI models, have brought agent security into focus. The Equity team unpacked whether the problem calls for better engineering, new regulation, or both, and why startups are raising millions to secure AI agents.
