One if the differences in the #gurus and the real hitting coaches is that the #gurus believe that they could play today because they can hit in a batting cage off a tee or pitching machine when in reality they couldn’t hit when they had their chance. A real hitting coach remembers what worked for him because it’s ingrained in him. He can pass along his wisdom by memory not by playing Hitters Knockout with 12 year olds! #shegone Not Gaetti Bob File Tony Wuench Bill Dubs Slider Domination Randy Johnson ROX ARROYO 𓂀 إسرافيل Matt Stark Wil Pujols Jonah Artiles

Don’t train like a pitcher, train like an Olympic sprinter. When I was with the Phillies throwing in the mid-90s, I thought sprinting was eyewash. I just wanted to get bigger and stronger. But here’s the thing—the key to throwing harder isn’t to get bigger or stronger. It’s to train your central nervous system to fire faster. And sprinting is one of the best tests for how well your CNS is firing. Look at Roki Sasaki, who throws 103 mph. When researchers studied him, they found he had similar characteristics to an Olympic sprinter. Or Aroldis Chapman beating Billy Hamilton in a race—when Hamilton was the fastest runner in the MLB. Or even Shohei Ohtani stealing 50 bases last year. They’re elite at throwing and sprinting because they’re so efficient at firing their CNS. So if you want to take advantage of this, here’s what you do: – 2–3x per week, incorporate sprint variations (acceleration, weighted, max effort). – Do ~10 sprints per session. – Add rate of force development, VBT, and impulse-type training into your routine. And if that sounds confusing, just comment SPRINT and I’ll send you the exact routine I’m using to throw 100 mph.

The single best way to break into the Hedge Fund industry — and most people still won't do it: Derek Pilecki, 18-year track record, 21%+ annualized in financials, entire net worth in his own fund. "Since we have the internet, there's a way to break into the industry that didn't exist in the nineties." "You can write up stock ideas. You can research how to write up a stock idea. You can write up your own idea and post it to Seeking Alpha or create your own blog, post it to Twitter." "If you do that 10 times, you'll have a following." "There'll be professional money managers who will read your blog because you wrote up 10 small cap stocks and they own one or two of them." "They read your idea on this bank. They agreed with you. Now they wanna see what other banks you like." "You can find a job that way by just writing up stock ideas and posting them to the internet." "You can break into this industry if you're willing to do that work on your own and put yourself out there." You can just write up 10 stock ideas.

How we start with a new player we’ve never seen before! 12-year Major Leaguer, CEO, and Camwood Coach Wes Helms starts by simply watching the player swing—like Auburn commit Wade Shelley . He asks questions about how the player feels, what they’re struggling with, etc., so we can create a game plan tailored to their specific swing and needs. So if you’re a coach working with a player for the first time, don’t walk in with a pre-made routine or plan. Watch them swing first, analyze, and then build a game plan based on what they need. #baseball #hitting #Training

"ให้กำลังใจตัวเอง ดีที่สุด” A summary: As a human being, it's common to feel discouraged and lose passion for living. Listening to life coach might be helpful but that's temporary. The best way to give yourself encouragement is to cheer yourself up. You can start by hugging yourself and give yourself a pep talk. There're usually 2 reasons why we lose passion. It's either you've completed what you want or it seems impossible to complete what you want. In this case, you'd better go out to live your life and find something to do. Eating something nice or pampering yourself helps. You can try taking a public bus and, by looking at the passengers, you'll realize that it isn't just you who feels tired but a lot of people and they're from all walks of life also feel tired and have to do things they don't want to. They have to work to keep their job or else they might lose it to others or even to AI who is a rival to humans in many jobs. Things change a lot as time passes if you let yourself drown in burnout, you'll be left behind. #EngfaWaraha #อิงฟ้ามหาชน

Should kids throw curveballs? Or are we asking the WRONG question? I just evaluated a 12-year-old with a UCL tear… who couldn’t even do a simple get up from the ground. And we’re debating pitch types? This isn’t a curveball problem. This is a youth development problem. Kids are: ⚾️ Playing 90+ games a year ⚾️ Throwing max intent before they can move ⚾️ Training like mini-pros ⚾️ Skipping athletic development ⚾️ Living in velocity culture And then we’re shocked when their elbows explode. So I’ll ask again: 👉 Is the curveball the villain? Or are we breaking kids before they ever get the chance to grow?

Marc Andreessen on the idea maze and getting a prototype working before raising money “You see people sometimes who say, ‘I want to start a company’ and then they work through the process of coming up with an idea. Generally those don’t work as well as the case where somebody has the idea first and then they realize there’s an opportunity to build a company.” This was the case for Marc himself - they had Mosaic working before they started Netscape. Larry Page and Sergey Brin had the Google search engine working at Stanford. Pierre Omidyar had eBay working before he left his job. “It’s also far easier to raise money. The ideal pitch we receive is ‘Here’s the thing that works. Would you like to invest in our company or not?’ That’s so much easier than 30 slides with a dream.” At a16z Balaji Srinivasan came up with the concept of the Idea Maze, which Marc explains: “There’s a mythology that these ideas arrive like magic or people stumble into them… The reality usually with the big successes is that the founder has been chewing on the problem for 5-10 years before they start the company… So they’re a true domain expert.” He continues: “We call it the idea maze because for any idea there’s all these different permutations. Who should the customer be? What shape should the product have? How should we take it to market?… The really smart founders have thought through all these scenarios by the time they go out to raise money. And they have detailed answers on every one of those fronts because they put so much thought into it. The more haphazard founders haven’t thought about any of that. And it’s the detailed ones who tend to do much better.” Source: Lex Fridman (Jun 2023)

Fake: Dead bodies Truth: A satellite image of livestock This is what social media is, it can be turned into a weapon to hurt people or get people to rile up against one another. This what the Islamists do, in this case "Muslim Brotherhood" Sudanese armed forces and their puppets who live in US & Europe. Part of their smearing campaign is that they went with this photo to say that they were dead bodies. Caused by the UAE, the truth is: "Two Sudanese factions are fighting a civil war" Before you start with the “what about this photo” or “that doesn’t mean the UAE isn’t involved” let me ask you something: If your case was real, why rely on fake images and AI fabrications to prove it? You only need deception when you’re selling a LIE

The Maasai tribe from Africa teaching the world "What is a woman" Matt Walsh travels to Africa to ask local villagers about transgenderism and if their notions of gender are as fluid as in the West. He asks the Maasai Tribe "What is a Woman?". What they tell Matt is different from many of the so called “experts” who couldn't answer the Question "There are things a woman can do that a man cannot, and things men can do that women cannot, hence, we have been created equally but different to ‘supplement’ each other by being what the other is not" ~ Maasai Tribe Elder "if you want to become a lady but you are a man, you have something wrong with you ..." ~ Maasai One of the Maasai Men asked the translator in Maasai language "is this guy insane or what?" They were clearly holding back laughter out of kindness. As soon as Matt left they told all their friends back home and laughed at the outside world. This is the first time in the Documentary Film Matt looks so afraid not to offend people! And as someone from Africa, I can assure you that they were thinking what the hell is wrong with this man is he insane or what? Before the translator could finish the last question, the whole crowd was laughing. It is as if Matt proved to the Maasai tribe that the outside world is crazy. Your comments on this

PR agencies, part 1: When do you need one and who should you hire? Super common question. I've cofounded an agency and worked with at least a dozen others, and here's my answer. First, going direct as a founder doesn't mean executing every comms tactic, just as being a technical founder doesn't mean writing every line of code. If you can't keep up with all the comms work that needs to be done, you're a bottleneck and need to get help. And while you should never outsource the story and strategy, a good agency can help with crafting pitches, doing outreach, or managing a project like a launch or crisis. Finding strong writers is hard, so unless you luck out, you’re better off doing the writing yourself. Even if it’s mid, at least it’ll be mid in your voice. What are your options for PR agencies? Start with referrals from other founders. While people in the industry might want to advocate for friends or bash competitors, founders will usually give a frank assessment of their experience. Different kinds of agencies: 1) Large global agencies, eg Brunswick, Edelman, Sard 2) Boutique agencies specializing in corporate comms and special situations, eg Milltown or my former firm TrailRunner 3) Agencies specializing in tech startups, eg Outcast, Six Eastern, The Bulleit Group 4) Comms shops embedded with lobbying firms, eg Invariant or Tusk Strategies 5) Great freelancers like Cristin Culver, Cameron Langford, many others How do you choose the best agency? Look at the people on the team. Sometimes the person pitching is great but it's a different person doing the work. Always meet the "real" team and account lead. Consider: 1) How quickly are they sending you a proposal? This is the fastest and most responsive they will ever be, so use this to evaluate their operational tempo and make sure it keeps up with yours. 2) Is the proposal good? And by good, I mean: is the writing clear and precise? Are they asking the right questions? Are their ideas and their assumptions sound? Do they have a sense of aesthetic? Is what you’ve told them reflected correctly; did they know what to do with the information? 3) How badly do they want the business? Is it excitement about your mission (good) or desperation to land business (bad)? 4) Who’s recommending them? Are their former clients the kinds of companies you want to emulate: Do you respect the taste and judgment of people who like their work? If they have a logo in their marketing materials and you call the founder, does the backchannel review match the company’s representation? A lot of people will agree to an endorsement just to be nice, but their private assessment might differ. 5) Do they “get it”? Can they instinctively pick up on problems or opportunities without you telling them? 6) Do they know the players in the space? Actually know them, not relying on Google or AI or databases to look them up and find their emails? You want people on a texting basis with at least some of the influential people you want to speak to.

i usually don’t like taking sides, because these discussions often end up creating even more division but in this case, i think an entire category of people deserves to be defended what happened with jason paige shows how easily a few words taken out of context, or a clipped video, can damage someone’s reputation for no real reason calling someone a scammer or accusing them of taking advantage of kids is serious from what was shown, jason traded a graded card signed by him, clearly stated the value he assigned to it, and nobody forced those kids to accept the deal before speaking to the vendor, they also seemed happy with the trade honestly, i can understand why a kid might choose an autographed card from someone they admire over a card with a higher market value not every celebrity has to handle these situations in the exact same way i’m genuinely curious to hear different opinions, but keep the discussion respectful where do you stand?

.David Deutsch: "What's currently called AI and AGI are not only different from each other, they are very close to being the exact opposites of each other. The reason is that an AI, current AI is like an AI that diagnoses diseases or an AI that plays chess or an AI that controls a huge factory. Those things have objective functions, that is they have a function that they are designed to maximize and that is why they are used in those particular applications. Or in military terms, you could say the objective is to hit the target. You might say the objective is to hit the target unless some thing specified, but it's a specified thing comes up in which case don't hit the target and so on. This is, as I said, almost the opposite of what humans do when humans think. For a start, the AI has to be obedient, that is it has to actually do the things it is programmed to do, whereas a human is fundamentally disobedient, especially when being creative. When a human plays chess, they are performing a completely different kind of computation. They don't do the same things, they don't investigate the same possibilities that the artificial chess playing machine does, because the artificial one is capable of looking at billions and billions of possibilities, whereas the human can only look at hundreds or something. They are doing something completely different. Another difference is that the human can explain, can write a book later, having become world champion, can write a book saying how I did it, as the computer program that beats the world champion can write no such book, because it has no idea how it did it. It was just following a program. I was doing this and that and that and none of that is illuminating. Also, third thing, the chess player can decide I don't want to play chess anymore, from now on I will play Go or from now on I will play tennis. If commanded to play chess, the functionality will deteriorate completely. Those things are different. What we want in an AGI is that it behaves in a way that cannot be specified in advance, because if you specified it, you would already have the answer. The AGI program has to give unexpected answers, answers to questions we didn't even know how to ask."

Also, third thing, the chess player can decide I don't want to play chess anymore, from now on I will play Go or from now on I will play tennis. If commanded to play chess, the functionality will deteriorate completely. Those things are different. What we want in an AGI is that it behaves in a way that cannot be specified in advance, because if you specified it, you would already have the answer. The AGI program has to give unexpected answers, answers to questions we didn't even know how to ask."

The Most Dangerous Phrase in Midlife Fitness: “I Used To…” “I used to run faster.” “I used to lift heavier.” “I used to train every day.” I hear this constantly. In the office. In the gym. From people who still care deeply about being capable… yet are often injured. I always ask patients what sports they play. Not uncommonly, they’ll answer football or basketball. I’ll ask when they last did it… the answer is universally— in college or high school. Then a spark woke them up, and they tried to get back to the things they did 20-30 years ago. While that’s not impossible, it requires a far different approach. The problem isn’t remembering the past. It’s training as if the past is the standard you still have to meet. When training is anchored to past ability, the focus shifts away from adaptation and toward proving something. Over time, that almost always leads to frustration, injury, disengagement, and a visit to my office. Midlife isn’t about reclaiming an earlier version of yourself. That version lived in a different body, with different recovery capacity, different stress, and different biology. What you have now is a different body. Not a broken one. Not an inferior one. Just different. But one that is still able to adapt and achieve. The people who age well in sport and in life understand this sooner rather than later. They stop chasing intenisty volume for its own sake. They become more selective about intensity and focus on consistency. They leave room for recovery. They care less about what a workout looks like and more about what it allows them to do tomorrow. They aren’t lowering standards. They’re changing the rules… they’re adapting. For the longest time, I didn’t do this. I was working out in my late 50s as I did in my 20s… and I was often hurt or aching enough that the next day was a bust. The question stops being, “Can I still do what I used to do?” It becomes, “What do I need to do now to stay strong, capable, and independent ten years from today?” That shift isn’t quitting. It’s about choosing healthspan… and adapting to what the passage of time demands. —Howard
