Hi All!
Here is your weekly dose of “Five Bullet Friday,” a list of what I’m enjoying or pondering. I was inspired by Tim Ferriss's Five Bullet Friday and this will be my 10th one in the series.
Podcast I enjoyed
I was involved in bodybuilding and powerlifting for a few years, and Dorian Yates had been an outside of the box thinker in the field whom I admired. A lot of wisdom in this episode.
Music I'm listening to
Book I am reading
How to Fail at Almost Everything and Still Win Big by Scott Adams. Very insightful book on how to enjoy life and notice cognitive bias.
Person who I enjoyed following on Steemit
@daut44 had an amazing story of how he won $1.5 Million at a poker tournament when he was 22.

He also has a great lesson series on mathematical logic: https://steemit.com/mathematics/@daut44/an-introduction-to-mathematical-proofs-part-1-basic-logic-and-truth-tables
He's one of the deepest thinkers I have encountered on this platform and some of the highlights into his insights include these posts:

What I am learning
Automating tasks using python scripts.
This tutorial has been amazing so far. https://automatetheboringstuff.com/
I thought I knew python, but I was definitely doing a lot of tasks in a very inefficient way previously.
Thanks for reading! Have a wonderful weekend,

I know that I haven't uploaded a new lesson in a few weeks, but hopefully I should be able to get to one next week.
