MATH’S BIGGEST PUZZLE: THE GAME THAT NO ONE CAN WIN Imagine a math puzzle so evil, teachers literally tell you not to waste your life on it. It’s called the Collatz Conjecture. You take any number. If it’s odd, multiply by 3 and add 1. If it’s even, divide...

🇺🇸 Trump on his cognitive test: "These are tough questions. They say take a number, any number. I say ok, 99. Multiply it by 9. Divide it by 3. Add 4293. Divide by 2. Subtract 93. Divide by 9. What is your answer? I got it right. It was actually more complex than that." In case you were wondering if Trump did the math, sure he did 😂

This is one of my favorite movie endings... It has a powerful lesson: "At some point, everything is going to go south on you...and you're gonna say 'this is it, this is how I end.' Now you can either accept that, or you can get to work. That's all it is, you just begin. You do the math. You solve one problem. Then you solve the next one. And the next. And if you solve enough problems, you get to come home." This is the beautiful thing about life: No matter where you are today—no matter how deep in the darkness—you are always just one good decision away from being in a better place tomorrow. You can always focus on that one decision—that one problem—in front of you. Don't worry about the hundreds or thousands of decisions that you still have to make to get to where you want to be—just focus on the next decision. Just begin. Solve one problem. Then solve the next one. And the next. "Life is really simple, but we insist on making it complicated." - Confucius

Failure is a teacher. If you have success, you did it right, so there is probably nothing to learn. But if you have failure, there is something to learn. You have to make the most of your failures. Over time, I developed an instinctual reaction to failure. My instinct now is to view failure as a puzzle that will give me gems if I can solve it. The puzzle is simply this: What would I do differently in the future so as not to have that result? When you solve that puzzle, you write the lesson down. That is where principles come from. #RayDalio #Principles #GrowthMindset #ContinuousLearning

WANNA GET TO MARS? BETTER GET THE MATH RIGHT So here’s the deal: Mars isn’t just sitting there waiting for you to show up. It’s about 1,000 times farther than the Moon, so you have to launch into this big space oval called an elliptical orbit. Earth sits on one side of the oval, Mars on the other, and you have to nail the timing so your spaceship and Mars show up at the same place—like it’s a cosmic blind date. Miss it? Congrats. You’re just drifting in space with snacks and regrets. That’s called an orbital transfer. Nerds call it genius. We call it not dying in space. Source: SpaceX, Elon Musk

Anthropic CEO: "If my revenue is not $1 trillion, even $800 billion, there's no force on earth, no hedge on earth, that could stop me from going bankrupt." In a 3-hour podcast, Dario Amodei does the math on his own bankruptcy. Revenue 10x a year. 90% of code written by the model. A country of geniuses by 2028. He can't tell you if it ends in trillions or zero. The most honest voice in AI, or the biggest bubble admitting it?

"One of the challenging things about the really important stuff in life is that they’re endless battles. If you do a good job focusing today and prioritizing today, if you pick the right thing to focus on, it earns you no bonus points for tomorrow. Tomorrow you show up, and if you spend all that time on YouTube or getting distracted or whatever, that day is gone. Other things are like that, too. Just because you worked out two weeks ago doesn’t mean you don’t need to do it today. Or just because you were a good spouse yesterday, that earns you no bonus points for today. You still need to show up for them. And so I’m trying to get comfortable with the endless nature of those things. A lot of the time we try to resist the endless nature of that stuff. “Oh, I wish it wasn’t that way.” We try to convince ourselves that it’s like a finish line. “If I just do this 21-day cleanse, then I’ll be a healthy person and I won’t have to think about it anymore. If I just buy her something nice for her anniversary, then I can stop worrying about it and I don’t have to [do other things].” No, it’s not like that. It’s endless. As soon as you accept the endless nature, you start looking at it differently. You say, “Okay, it’s not about getting to a particular finish line; it’s about living a daily life that feels sustainable and that I like and that I’m fully engaged in. So it’s about liking my days."

we all dream of those big wins in life the 100x, the multi-million dollar trade, or even just 10x of what you started with in 7 days i’ve been fortunate enough to experience a few of those over the past few years, and the reality is when you do win big, it doesn’t feel like it at all it hits for a split second, and then your brain just normalizes it it's a part of how to get there in the first place, but makes it a lot easier to lose it if you don't have the right guardrails in place and in that exact moment, you being even keeled doesn’t mean the number in front of you isn’t life changing it is this is where you have to slow down a bit, breathe, settle your mind don’t just roll it into some bullshit take some off the table, step away for a few days if you have to, funny enough, blowing let's say 10k of it on a beautiful trip to tokyo will save you so much because once you actually process what just happened, your future self will thank you for it the truth is, even if you think you’re going for a certain number, the moment you hit it, you’ll want more and more, and more anyone who's been in the same position will tell you the exact same thing ironically the people that win are addicted to winning and if you ask the same people in a year after that big win, what they regret and where are they proud of themselves? they will tell you they regretted rolling it over and giving some/all back or they are proud for switching back on the switch all of this is real, but it’s also exactly how i imagined it would feel years ago before it ever happened manifest your life, the feeling not just the number everything happens twice, first in your mind, then in reality

Life is short. Enjoy it and make the best of it! Naval “It’s even briefer than that. Each moment just disappears. It’s gone. There’s only a present moment, and it’s gone instantly. So if you’re not there for it, if you’re stressed out, or you’re anxious, or you’re thinking about something else, you missed it. So the true wasted time is a time that you are not present for, when you are not there for it, when you are not doing the thing you want to do to the best of your capabilities such that you’re immersed in it. If you’re not immersed in this moment, then you’re wasting your time.” Chris Williamson

This is one of those tricks that makes you feel like you’ve been doing math the hard way your whole life. Just fold a tape measure back on itself, line up the two fractions you want to add, and the end of the tape gives you the answer. No common denominators, no calculator needed. He added 38½ + 10¾ and got 49¼… then did even harder ones and it still worked perfectly. Carpenters have been quietly flexing this for years. Have you ever seen this tape measure trick before, or is this a new one for you?

If you have a mac, it’s super easy to run any LLM on it now. Basically your own private jail broken chatgpt. Runs offline. Literally a 2 step process. 1) go to and download the app 2) open terminal -> run the model 3) there's no step 3

Not centering your life around work is hard but possible. Loved this from Cormac McCarthy: "I always knew that I didn't wanna work." Oprah: "How did you manage that? Most people would like to do that." "Well, you have to be dedicated. Yeah. But it was, it was my number one priority. And, uh, that you didn't wanna have a nine-to-five job. Yeah. I thought you, you're just here once. Life is brief and to have to spend every day of it doing what somebody else wants you to do is not the way to live it." "And I don't have any advice for anybody on how to go about that. Except if you, if you are really dedicated, you can probably do it. Oprah: "So you have worked at not working." "Absolutely. It's, yeah, it's number one priority."

The “In-Between Game” gets you PAID. Not a layup. Not a three. It’s that pull-up midrange off the bounce, To beat pressure, Do it enough in para five and then in the game you play off instinct. If you can hit this shot it opens up so many opportunities for your team on Offense

There are a huge variety of puzzles in Crimson Desert, so far each one that I have encountered in the open world has been different to the previous one I've finished. Each one of them required different approaches that sometimes it took me several minutes to finish. Once you finish the puzzle, it gives you this incredible feeling of achievement because you know you did it all by yourself, with no help whatsoever. Most games would usually start giving you hints not even a minute after you start working on a puzzle

Minjeong being considerate with MYs 🥺 “You don’t have to buy Ba-bong (aespa’s new ls). There’s no need to stand in the rain and wait like that just to get it on-site. ‘Seubong’ (old ls) is good too, Seubong is nice, and it’s also fine if you don’t have one. Just the fact that you come is already so, so meaningful. Since we’re really coming together just to make good memories, there’s no need to have a lightstick. But of course, you can bring it if you want

I’ve been following this phenomenon for a while. I have no idea what to make of it but when you see the sky get that black at 3:30 in the afternoon on a sunny day AND you hear what sounds like loud trumpets in the sky…It means something.. I’m not sure what. I don’t know if it’s biblical or if it’s something our government is doing, but I know what it sounds like to me . It’s been happening all over the world . I’d love to hear your opinions on this.

The number one reason for marriages breaking up is money, not infidelity. One partner outspends the other. Then you get financial stress, then you get divorced. You put so much pressure on a marriage when you can’t pay your credit card off that you start to really dislike each other. It’s the beginning of the end and it’s stupid. Figure out who you’re marrying first. Make sure that you both have the same financial goals and that: she or he will not outspend you, that you both know what you’re doing every month, and you will live together happily forever. It’s all about the money. It always is, and people that say it isn’t are full of poo-poo.
