Realizing you are not the center of the universe is the key to unlocking a lot, in science and in life.

The US outperforms everyone in education when you control for race. US Asians beat all Asian countries, US Whites beat all White countries (and even beat Korea!), etc. Before you try to solve a problem, first confirm it exists.

75% of 8th graders in America aren’t proficient in math & the average student in China is 4 years ahead of the average U.S. student. It’s time to get serious about fixing K-12 education.

If you told me 10 years ago that a group of the smartest engineers in the land would evoke the threat, "Do what I say or I will go to work at Microsoft," I would not have believed you. Amazing shift in corporate reputation (and much credit to Satya).

Is the private equity model of running companies materially different from public companies? Can we see that difference in the financials? We built a database of 993 deals that had public debt and public financials to answer this question.

There are a few times in life when you read a new book and realize that your life will be transformed if you follow its teachings. @PeterAttiaMD’s Outlive is such a book. It can save, or at a minimum massively improve, your life. I can’t imagine a better investment for 28 bucks.

Agree with this. Insurance should cover 90% of funds, above $250k at any US bank. Executives should be tried in court in case of bankruptcy.

The solution is for FDIC to offer a category of insurance where (1) deposits are fully protected but (2) banks are restricted to investing that money in fully liquid securities that are marked-to-market daily. That is the product everyone wants.
