How to create an online poll with pol.is?
Summary by Gemini:
This is a short tutorial on how to create an online poll using the website pol.is. It shows how to create an account, add a topic and description to the poll, and add statements that people can agree or disagree with. It also shows how to distribute the poll by sharing a link or embedding it on a webpage.
pol.is helps with:
Collecting feedback: Polls can be used to collect feedback from a group of people on a particular topic. This can be helpful for businesses, organizations, and individuals who want to get input from others.
Making decisions: Polls can be used to help make decisions by allowing people to vote on different options. This can be useful for groups of people who need to make a decision together, such as a team or a committee.
Learning about public opinion: Polls can be used to learn about public opinion on a particular issue. This can be helpful for politicians, journalists, and researchers who want to understand how people feel about different topics.

Your Hidden Advantage: The Power of Being 'Good Enough'
summary by Claude:
The key insights of this clip are valuable in the context of artificial general intelligence (AGI) for several reasons:
Focus on Personal Optimization vs. Universal Excellence
The text's core message – focusing on your comparative advantage rather than trying to be the absolute best – is crucial in an AGI world because AGI will likely exceed human capabilities in many standardized tasks.
The goal shifts from "being the best at X" to "finding your unique combination of strengths". This approach is inherently AGI-resistant since it focuses on personal relativity rather than absolute performance.
Strategic Self-Development
The text advocates for a strategic approach to personal development that will be vital when competing alongside AGI.
Understanding your personal skill ecosystem
Investing time in areas where you have natural inclinations. Developing interconnected abilities rather than isolated skills.
Human-Centric Advantage
The message implicitly points to what might become humans' greatest asset in an AGI world: (i) self-awareness; (ii) personal growth trajectory; (iii) individual uniqueness; and (iv) the ability to understand and leverage your own learning patterns.
Psychological Resilience
The message provides a framework for maintaining confidence and direction in a world where machines might outperform humans in many areas: (i) shifts focus from external competition to internal optimization; (ii) encourages sustainable personal growth; (iii) builds resilience against comparison anxiety.
Future-Proof Mindset
The text's approach is particularly valuable because it: (i) emphasizes adaptability over fixed expertise; (ii) focuses on relative strength discovery rather than absolute performance; (iii) encourages continuous self-exploration, which will be crucial in a rapidly evolving AGI world.
This perspective becomes even more valuable as we approach AGI because it shifts the focus from competing against others (or machines) to understanding and optimizing our unique human attributes and personal growth patterns – areas where AGI might struggle to replicate the deeply individual nature of human development and self-discovery.
