⚡️The system is eating itself. When Amazon, UPS, Intel, and others start cutting this deep simultaneously, it means something more fundamental than “tight margins.” It means the productive layer of the economy is collapsing under the weight of its own optimization logic. Every…

So if we layoff everyone to increase margins this year, who will have money left to buy your products next year?

Every state in the union should pass a law that any seller on a digital marketplace MUST have a verified American address and must pay all applicable taxes and fees, otherwise it’s illegal and THE MARKETPLACE will be liable for $10k per instance THIS will accelerate the growth…

We have the 1933-34 Securities Act/Exchange Act because brokers were selling stock without any info to the buyers, who were often buying on margin (borrowing $$ to buy securities). This ignorance, compounded with all the debt, created the 1929 crash and destroyed people. People…

Fetterman’s slovenly appearance is a symptom of growing up spoiled and privileged. An actual working class person would never show up to an important work event dressed like this.

Senator John Fetterman arrives at the inauguration in gym shorts THIS GUY IS ABSOLUTELY NUTS 🤣

Stat guys having a rough go of it. GDP per capita , unemployment rate, “wage growth” nobody cares. Anybody who takes it seriously now is in for a rude awakening. It’s not 2004, it’s about gut, instinct & what your eyes & brain perceive. Nobody trusts the abstractions now.

What’s being left out of this conversation is that this same transitional job is not what it would have been even 20 years ago. In the past you might meet a girl, might have a coworker whose dad could help you get a different job, etc. Now if you manage a Panda Express you will…

IQ is maybe half the game. Super high IQ folks often lose themselves in nonsense, or they are successful as tax lawyers who are otherwise fat and ugly, or finance or entertainment guys same thing. They burn out, or just do nothing but pile up cash that they spend badly. They…

It's literally absurd how hard it's gotten to get a job making $500k+ where you stay up until midnight making powerpoint slides no one reads or update falsely precise models/write investment memos to underperform the index

Some of my colleagues were laid off last year and are still looking for a job 10 months later. This labor market continues to be awful for white collar workers

you're much better off trading a 100 vol asset with a small % of your portfolio and keeping the remainder in unlevered yield strategies than trading 7-8 vol assets market neutral w huge leverage unless that leverage is provided via futures/ swaps this is an underappreciated idea…

What the frugal bros don’t get is that those things wouldn’t be part of the American Dream if they were cheap. Dreams aren’t cheap.

The “Trap”: $50k - car $80k - college $30k - wedding $500k - dream home 5 years of decisions today turns into 35+ of working to pay it all off. The American “dream” sounds more like a nightmare.

Definitely applies to these psychologist / mental coaches. Whole Billions TV show has made people think these coaches are *the* edge. Ultra competitive relentless competitors are how they are. At most a 5% impact from coaching. And that number is an overestimate. All else is…

There's nothing else to do with elite cognitive talent besides speedrunning. The private sector doesn't want it because smart people make the managerial caste uneasy and the public sector doesn't want it because the lives of citizens might improve. Hence, we arrive at Spyro 3.

Every day I am newly in awe at the amount of elite cognitive talent––world historical levels of memorization, strategy, optimization, real-time problem solving––getting put to use on increasingly trivial tasks like speedrunning Sekiro blindfolded.

Isn't it weird how all of the people complaining and doomsaying about work from home have the letters "CRE" in their bio? Really makes you think.
