Ponder: A Daily Edition
One idea and one great line
Free · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.
Every morning, a new edition: one question about being human, answered with real evidence, and one great line to keep. Four minutes a day.
One fascinating idea and one great line, four minutes a day.
Every morning, Ponder brings you a new edition. Each one opens with a question you can't stop thinking about:
Why does every year feel shorter than the last?
Why are you wise about everyone's problems except your own?
Would you plug into a machine that gave you a perfect life?
How did paying people to kill rats create more rats?
Make your guess, then follow one true story through the research to the answer. Every figure is traced to its source. You finish knowing something real about how people think, choose and remember.
Then comes the line: words from a great writer, often in the original language, taken apart slowly so they stay with you.
