Well, the water's dropped quite a bit. It just means that I don't have any water to drink right now, so I'll have to try to dig it deeper. Starting to get a little bit of water pulling up, which I would expect. But I'm kind of at the limit of what I can do by hand here.

It's been almost 2 months since desert nomad Tobias first arrived in this Arizona Canyon. Each passing day is a test of his survival know-how. I don't think I can keep digging like this much longer. This trip is a lot about challenging myself and trying to see if I am capable of doing what I think I should be able to do as a human, which is go out onto the Earth and provide for myself.

My whole life I've been trying to figure out how to live out here, and hopefully I can stay within my limits and still do this intensive journey. It's probably going to be enough to where I can get a little water tonight, but at the rate that the water is dropping, I'm not going to be able to keep getting water out of here reliably. I pretty much have realized that the well is not going to provide me water much longer. It's just kind of a losing battle.

Ross Ice Shelf Research | Continent 7: Antarctica

The Ross Ice Shelf is the largest lump of floating ice in the world. So little is known; the surface of Pluto has much better imagery than what’s beneath Raphael. It’s a lot of new stuff that we’re going to discover. No one’s ever done this before; it’s e…

David Deutsch: Knowledge Creation and The Human Race, Part 1

My goal would be not to do yet another podcast with David Deutsch; there are plenty of those. I would love to tease out some of the very counter-intuitive learnings, put them down canonically in such a way that future generations can benefit from them, an…
