.travis kalanick on the little details that helped Uber beat Lyft: “I needed to subsidize rides to gain market share. When I gain market share there's a network effect because if I'm bigger, then my system is more efficient and if I'm more efficient than them, they have to subsidize more than I do to compete with me. This is why Lyft is smaller than Uber because we were better at this and people don't really know that's what it takes. But how do you get efficiency edge? Efficiency edge starts when somebody even downloads the app and signs up. If it's easier to sign up on one versus another you have an efficiency edge. If it's easier to call a vehicle and get it to you without problems, you have an efficiency edge because you'll have less support. If the cars are moving to where the demand is because the driver app has good ways to point drivers to the right place that means you have shorter pickup time, that’s another efficiency edge. And efficiency edge means you get bigger faster.”

Zapier CEO Wade Foster says individuals have become more productive with AI tools, but that it's not clear if companies as a whole are also becoming more productive: "Across Zapier, 100% of our employees are using AI daily. People are individually more productive. But if you were to ask me, 'Is the company more productive, institutionally are we more productive?' It's a lot harder to say yes to that." "This feels like the next thing that everybody's working on: How do we actually accelerate the institution? This gets harder because you actually have to rethink how the company works." "To give you an example, we've gone from a world where code was expensive to now code is cheap. In the world where code was expensive, you had all these processes upfront to talk to customers, to align on roadmaps, to figure out what the right thing to build was, because if you chose the wrong thing, that was a really expensive mistake." "But when code is cheap, you can get rid of all that stuff. And that takes redesigning jobs or rethinking the human where the human actually exists in the first place."

Today, I present to you a direct hardware capture of Sonic Advance 2... RUNNING ON A SEGA DREAMCAST! Turns out developer, bezet, has been hard at work porting the Gameboy Advance classic to the little white box of dreams... where it belongs! It's still extremely early, and there are plenty of visual glitches, performance issues, as well as no audio implemented yet, but as you can see, progress at this early stage is still extremely promising, and much of the game is very playable! Stay tuned for more footage and news as developer bezet continues to progress!

Some World Cup visitors come to America expecting chaos... and leave wondering why everyone waved at them from a pickup truck. They figure out pretty quick we're a friendly bunch, might argue about everything under the sun, but we'll still help you change a tire, recommend a good diner, and call you “buddy" like we've known you since Little League. Then there's driving. They ask, "What's the speed limit here?" We say, "Well... technically 55." But what we mean is, "Keep up with traffic or prepare for judgment." And distance? We don't measure that in miles. "Oh, it's about 10 miles away" means nothing. "It's about 15 minutes if you hit the lights right" now that's real American math. By the time they leave, they've learned three things: Americans are nicer than advertised Speed limits are more of a group activity And everything, absolutely everything, is measured in how long it takes to get there Welcome to the U.S.—where the people are warm, the coffee is bottomless, and "just down the road" could mean anything.

Didn’t want to make this post but where do these Chinese like below get this image that the Philippines is the primary prostitute nation?? The following vids depict the red light districts in: 1. China 2. Vietnam (who many think are Chinese) 3. Philippines and 4. Japan As one can see, there are differences in the number of prostitutes on the street and whether their demeanour suggests they’re waiting for or actively trying to secure a john. The Philippines looks way more subdued compared to the rest. If you disagree, please explain why? With stats showing that the Philippines has the lowest HIV rates in Southeast Asia, one of the lowest tourism numbers that are not even majority White travellers but East Asian, where do you ignorant snots get this image like it’s even worse than Thailand?? Honest replies please. Is it cuz the country is poorer or is it cuz the people are browner?? East Asians who think this way act like they don’t do this in similar numbers, if not worse. There are countless videos of prostitutes in China which are way easier to find than in the PH btw.

I found this absolutely hilarious. So China has this nationwide policy called "Green Channel" (“绿通”): if you transport fresh produce like fruits or veggies, you don't need to pay highway tolls. It's real, I checked, here is a government website describing the policy: This is meant to reduce food costs and reduce friction in food logistics. If you're a small farmer producing - say - watermelons in Xinjiang, thousands of kms from Eastern cities, highway tolls alone could cost more than the watermelons themselves are worth. There is, however, a loophole that's going viral on Chinese social media these days 👇 It applies to pickup trucks! So if you have a pickup truck, you just need to pack the back with cheap cabbage and - voilà - free highway for you 😂 So in China these days, if you go on the highway, you're increasingly seeing more and more pickup trucks packed with fruits and veggies in the back 😅 It actually doesn't go wasted and may even work in favor of the policy. When they arrive at destination, the drivers do sell the produce so, on top of waiving highway fees, they even make a profit - basically becoming the small-scale food distributors the policy was designed to support. The video describes a driver from Zhengzhou, Henan who reportedly bought 500 yuan of cabbage, drove toll-free to Xinjiang, sold it for 1,500, then loaded up watermelons for the return trip and sold those back in Henan. He saved 2,000 RMB in highway fees and probably got his gas paid by the food profit! I'm myself planning to drive the whole summer touring Western China with my family in an RV: I wonder if it applies, I might try it! If you're in China and see a French guy driving a RV packed with cabbage, don't get surprised 😂

For more than a year, I've poured my heart into creating my Alice in Wonderland Themed Airbnb. It's taken countless hours, plenty of setbacks, and more hard work than I ever imagined. There are still days when it feels like the finish line is a long way off, but when I look back at where it started, I can't help but feel proud. This place has become so much more than a project, it's a dream I've held onto and slowly brought to life, one piece at a time. Every detail reflects a little bit of my imagination and a lot of my heart. I know it's not finished yet, but seeing it come together reminds me that the best things are worth the time, patience, and love they require. I can't wait for the day I finally open the door and share this little Wonderland with the world. ❤️

Images of black people urinating on Austin Metcalf's grave are sweeping the internet right now. The only problem is...they aren't real. Michael Knowles lays into our "hyperreal, dopamine-drowning culture" that demands increasingly grand outrage and spectacle: "It's not enough that there were people there saying, 'We want Karmelo to be exonerated.' That's crazy. But it's not crazy enough...you need something more. You need a member of Congress saying that the real victims in the Austin Metcalf murder are black people." "There's this strange condition that we're living in now where politics doesn't seem to be connected to the actual political order...we're just talking about weird conspiracy theories about personalities who don't even make laws, but who are just in the media." "In the society where modern conditions of production prevail, all of life presents itself as an immense accumulation of spectacles. This is why all the podcasters had to turn on Trump. Your ratings don't do as well—especially in independent media—when you're on the side of the people in power." "We need an immense accumulation of spectacles. It cannot be the case that a Left-winger dating a trans furry killed Charlie Kirk. We can't believe that—even though that's what all of the evidence shows—because that's too mundane, that's too expected." "Now it's all new media, on demand, independent. It's crucial, it seems to me, to maintain the via media. There are going to be some people who say there's really no racial strife in America. That's not true. And then there are going to be people who say black women are urinating on the grave of Austin Metcalf. That's not happening either. The reality is much more tense. It's much more full of anxiety. It's a little blurrier. It's a little more ambiguous."

Part 1: I have never zoomed in on their faces in the last KTV moment. Because I would just cry watching that last video. But I decided to do it today and my heart just broke more. The silence between them was sad but their faces and little thing they do? More sad, more heartbreaking. Yueyue looks like he will cry at any moment, the more he looks at his man the more his nose flares up, the more his fingers play with his Adam's apple, the more he tries to look up and blink each time. And Leizi...I can't make out his eyes but I know it's an unblocking stare at his moon in front of him. The more he looks, the more he anxiously bites his lips, the more he takes big gulps, the more his breathing deepens and the more his chest heaves. Now they are married and having a great time in their beijing apartment with their 3 kids but I cannot imagine what this moment felt for them. And I hope they never feel it again. Only warm cuddles and hugs and kisses to one another. (Part 2 will be me zooming in on the last scene where yueyue sings his heart out~ Don't kill me!)

Indigo Park Chapter 1 - Version 1.1 is here! This is our attempt to get Chapter 1 a TINY bit closer to what we want Chapter 2 to be like quality wise. -Completely redone first person animations -New Secrets to find -Some improved environments -Improved controller support -Viewbob & Camera Lag toggles -The cat returns -Handful of bug fixes and changes Again, Chapter 1 still has tons of flaws & this isn't a complete overhaul, but it's a step in the right direction without remaking the entire chapter. Enjoy! We'll probably have a few more bug fix updates since this changed a LOT internally, but it's now time for us to go HARD on Chapter 2.

Had to pull over for this one. Was able to get 4 in the same shot. They aren't the best, but 2 minutes later, I got one of my best yet. The image below is a preview. Can't wait to get the video cleaned up to show you. This video does have a really cool shot of a trail, and many of those orb like things zooming around. I owe you all a much better explanation about what's actually happening. Just finishing 2 more videos about the trails not coming from planes. Then, I'm done trying to convince anyone. We have a serious problem, and i will be focusing on what's happening, going to happen, etc. I appreciate you being patient with me. 👊💪🤙

.tylercowen on why AI creates more jobs than it destroys: "One of the neatest properties of current AI models is they allow a small number of individuals working with AI to really do a lot more work than was possible previously." "This will mean more companies, more projects, more nonprofits, just more ventures." "One area is generally energy, electricity, the grid... It's completely screwed up. It will take twenty years, thirty years, forty years to fix... The AIs cannot do that on their own." "The biomedical sector and medical trials, there will be many, many, many more ideas to test. AIs will help with the testing, but I don't think pure testing by simulation will be possible anytime soon." "Simply care for the elderly. There will be robots, personal companions. We have this already. But the elderly also will want human care. It wouldn't surprise me if in the future, fifteen, twenty percent of all jobs were elderly care." "Luis Garicano had an excellent online essay. He referred to what he called 'messy jobs': jobs where it's hard to explain exactly what the job is, but on a given day you're doing eleven different things, and it requires coordination and figuring out what you ought to do next and getting other people to help you... There's a real future in messy jobs." Tyler Cowen with Wyatt

Two summers ago, Kara Lawson was speaking to her Duke basketball team. She wanted them to shift their mindset. What followed was 2+ minutes of gold on how to be successful. Here’s Lawson on embracing hard things: “We all wait in life for things to get easier. Think in your own life. I just gotta get through this, and then it'll be easy … It's what we do. We wait for stuff to get easier. “It will never get easier. What happens is you handle hard better. “Most people think life is gonna get easier. Basketball is gonna get easier. School is gonna get easier. It never gets easier. What happens is you become someone that handles hard stuff better. “That's a mental shift that has to occur and each of your brains. If you go around waiting for stuff to get easier in life, it's never going to happen. And then what happens? Oh, it's so hard. Oh, I can't do it. When is it going to be easy for me? Oh, it's easy for other people. “It's not. It's hard. And the second we see you handling hard better, what are we gonna do? We're gonna make it harder. Because we're preparing you for when you leave here. Not just basketball – in life. “And if you think life when you leave college is going to all of a sudden get easy because you graduated and you got a degree, it's not going to get easier. It's going to get harder. “Make yourself a person that handles hard well, not someone that's waiting for the easy. Because if you have a meaningful pursuit in life, it will never be easy. If you're trying to win a championship, if you're trying to have a family … Ask your parents. Do you think it was ever easy for them? “If you want to be successful, it goes to the people that handle hard well. Those are the people that get the stuff they want … If it's hard, don't get discouraged. It's supposed to be. Don't wait for it to be [easy]. It won't. "Make yourself someone that handles hard well, and then whatever comes, you're going to be great.” – My takeaways: 1. This isn’t about sports. It’s about building a business, building a family, building a community, being a valuable citizen and every other meaningful thing in life. 2. “Hard” doesn’t mean “bad.” There can be joy in hard things. 3. There’s a Haitian proverb: “Behind mountains are more mountains.” There’s always another one to climb. 4. What you see on social media is a facade. People make their lives look glamorous online. Behind the screen is a human being struggling through their journey. 5. None of us are immune to difficulty (even if some try to appear that way). 6. “Easy” is convenient, “hard” is fulfilling. What satisfies you in the short-term robs you in the long run. 7. Have you ever heard someone tell a story about how easy a great achievement was? 8. “Easy choices hard life, hard choices easy life” misses the point. We shouldn’t seek an easy life to begin with. 9. Instead, build your capacity for difficult things. Then find joy in the process of handling those things. 10. No meaningful life travels an easy road. ||| Hope this is helpful. Follow me Teddy Mitrosilis for more writing. I also write a weekly newsletter on the process of improvement →

It's going to get harder. “Make yourself a person that handles hard well, not someone that's waiting for the easy. Because if you have a meaningful pursuit in life, it will never be easy. If you're trying to win a championship, if you're trying to have a family … Ask your parents. Do you think it was ever easy for them? “If you want to be successful, it goes to the people that handle hard well. Those are the people that get the stuff they want … If it's hard, don't get discouraged. It's supposed to be. Don't wait for it to be [easy]. It won't. "Make yourself someone that handles hard well, and then whatever comes, you're going to be great.” – My takeaways: 1. This isn’t about sports. It’s about building a business, building a family, building a community, being a valuable citizen and every other meaningful thing in life. 2. “Hard” doesn’t mean “bad.” There can be joy in hard things. 3. There’s a Haitian proverb: “Behind mountains are more mountains.” There’s always another one to climb. 4. What you see on social media is a facade. People make their lives look glamorous online. Behind the screen is a human being struggling through their journey. 5. None of us are immune to difficulty (even if some try to appear that way). 6. “Easy” is convenient, “hard” is fulfilling. What satisfies you in the short-term robs you in the long run. 7. Have you ever heard someone tell a story about how easy a great achievement was? 8. “Easy choices hard life, hard choices easy life” misses the point. We shouldn’t seek an easy life to begin with. 9. Instead, build your capacity for difficult things. Then find joy in the process of handling those things. 10. No meaningful life travels an easy road. ||| Hope this is helpful.

Axis Robotics Point System - Free Airdrop Guide: Axis Robotics {Robotics Sector} Currently, I think this is the one of the free airdrop you should focus on because: - Raised $12M (led by Hack VC) - Building on AI + Robotics (robotics could be the next hot sector after AI) - Cost free tasks (only requires effort) - Low competition due to the difficult tasks + negative sentiment around airdrops STEPS 👇🏻 🔗 • Create an account • Complete all the available tasks. There are many live tasks to complete. It might feel hard when you start but once you adapt, it gets easier. • The more tasks you complete, the more points you'll earn • Sign all the tasks you complete (you can use bulk signing) Point distribution: Based on: • Volume of tasks • Difficulty level • Variety of tasks completed Points are distributed every 2 weeks (MONDAY) Snapshot taken on Friday.

I rode in a Zoox (self-driving Amazon car) today! Overall an amazing experience; another rare time where the present truly looks, feels, and sounds like the future Waymo set a *very* high standard for me to compare to but I feel like Zoox was able to achieve a similar level of polish throughout the experience Pros: • App is great and actually works (rare!) • Driving is very smooth, about the same as a Waymo (both of which are nicer and smoother than most humans) • The leg space and seat layout are great and unparalleled. There's drink holders, usb ports, wireless charging, and music control on touch screen • 10/10 SFX, voice, animations, and subtle details. They matter! Cons: • Service area is small (mostly East Mission + SOMA, see below) • I feel a little less safe in Zoox versus Waymo. Waymo still has a driver's seat, a steering wheel, and more importantly, a dashboard which shows me what the car sees and what it is thinking and planning. Zoox has none of these (the touch screens don't show me LIDAR or AI predictions), which does feel super cool, but will take me a bit to get used to • The vehicle draws attention to itself more so than Waymo due to its irregularity, which I dislike because I don't feel safe in NE Mission and SOMA (but this isn't really Zoox's fault, is it? I trust it to not crash me!) • No Spotify integration but I could choose songs from Zoox FM Misc: • My pickup time was 7min, which is on par with or ~2min above my average Waymo pickup time • My ride was free. I don't know what the price will settle on when there's larger availability and also don't know current availability or timelines • There were two semi-urgent stops on my ride from a cyclist and a motorcyclist who both came aggressively close (around 1ft) to me. One stop was a bit less smooth than Waymo's would have been, but the car still made smart choices • Rides are available 8AM-11PM, riders must be 8 or older, no pets, alcohol, or smoking Overall: • Really cool experience. Feels less like taking a taxi and more like being in a smooth amusement park ride that tries (and succeeds!) at convincing me I'm living in the year 2030 • For now I'll stick with Waymo due to the UX, music control, familiarity, and availability (I've spent 105 hours of my life in a Waymo thus far apparently), but once Zoox expands their service area, especially if I'm with 2-3 friends, I'm looking forward to trying it more often Disclosures: • I love Waymo and self-driving cars • I own exactly one share in Amazon valued at $234 • I wasn't asked to tweet or review but no one told me I couldn't so send tweet

Hello Is there anybody in there? Just nod if you can hear me Is there anyone at home? Come on now I hear you're feeling down Well, I can ease your pain Get you on your feet again Relax I'll need some information first Just the basic facts Can you show me where it hurts? There is no pain, you are receding A distant ship smoke on the horizon You are only coming through in waves Your lips move but I can't hear what you're saying When I was a child I had a fever My hands felt just like two balloons Now I've got that feeling once again I can't explain, you would not understand This is not how I am I have become comfortably numb I have become comfortably numb O.K. Just a little pin prick There'll be no more ah! But you may feel a little sick Can you stand up? I do believe it's working, good That'll keep you going through the show Come on, it's time to go There is no pain you are receding A distant ship smoke on the horizon You are only coming through in waves Your lips move but I can't hear what you're saying When I was a child I caught a fleeting glimpse Out of the corner of my eye I turned to look but it was gone I cannot put my finger on it now The child is grown The dream is gone I have become comfortably numb #PinkFloyd
