David Friedberg: Michael Burry’s Datacenter Math is Wrong “I actually think Michael Burberry's got this wrong.” “What Michael Burry is saying is that all of these hyperscalers have extended their depreciation schedule or the useful life of their data centers by roughly 2x, which cuts the operating costs in half when they report it in earnings. And so it's making their earnings inflate.” “So he's claiming they're cooking the books. Google first made this change in Q1 of 2021, where they said the servers are now going from 3 to 4 years. Separately in 2021, Google took networking equipment from 3 to 5 years. And then in 2023, they took it from 5 to 6 years.” “And so this is a result of this effort where they went in and did an analysis. So what happened?” “What happened in the data centers is that the data centers transitioned from being primarily data storage and data transfer systems, where you would use hard drives and RAM and memory to store data and then transmit it back out, to being data processing centers because of the AI boom.” “So as AI became more important in the data center, more of the dollars that are going into data centers were allocated towards chips from data storage, which initially was hard drives.” “And then suddenly, when you put these processors in to process the data to do AI, the majority of the spend and the majority of the energy is going towards the processors.” “I made some calls and I checked around with some other friends, and everyone says the same thing: that these 7-8 year old TPUs and GPUs that are sitting in the data centers are still being used and they're being used at 100% utilization.” “So that actually justifies and validates the depreciation schedule being much longer versus shorter.”

If you are NOT buying a Tesla bc you don’t like Elon Musk, you’re a doofus. Do you not want to keep your loved ones or family in the safest vehicle in the world? Do you not want to save thousands of $ not having to buy gas and having literally no maintenance? Do you not want a car that drives itself and gets smarter & safer over time? Do you not want to have the ability to charge at home and wake up every morning with a “full tank”? Do you not want a car that holds its value better than any other car on the market? Do you not want to reduce your carbon footprint and contribute to a cleaner, more sustainable future for the next generation? Do you not want a car that can enter the Robotaxi network and make $ for you? Buy a Tesla. And if you can’t afford it, buy $TSLA bc it will allow you to get one later.

Controversial take … but if you’re young and have lots of time to make up for taking risk, I think the best strategy is to accumulate as much debt as possible and buy BTC and hold it for as long as possible. Where’s the hole in this logic?

This is Bob and he has some advice from all his years of experience. This is what not to buy according to Bob. Don’t buy an RV, don’t buy a boat, don’t buy a motorcycle and don’t buy a hot tub. He says they are a waste of money, a lot of upkeep, you never use them as much as you think you will and they have a terrible resale value and depreciate. A lot of people said Bob has had his fun and now he wants to spoil the fun for others. 😂 Many others said they appreciated him sharing his experience and agreed with him. He said if you can’t eat it then you don’t need it. 😂 So in essence, don’t be like Bob. Agree or disagree- I love the way Bob tells a story. 💯 I’ve had a boat, I’ve had a motorcycle, I’ve had a hot tub and I can confirm that I didn’t use them as much as I thought I would and always had issues with them. What do you think? Do you think Bob is spot on or do you think he’s full of it?

To me, Thrive's Carvana story is one of the most impressive investments I've heard about. It's one thing to win a competitive venture deal and then the company rips and you double down as consensus builds...not taking anything away from that, it's great. Definitely a little impressive. But to buy a public stock on the way down because of hard earned conviction, and then when it continues to tank and you buy more because of you re-underwrite your thesis, and then hold until it ends up hugely in the green. I think very few people in our world can do that.

[Q]: Mr. Orbán has requested an exemption as it relates to oil that is coming from Russia. Is that something that you are prepared to do? President Trump: We're looking at it because it's very difficult for him to get the oil and gas from other areas. As you know, they don't have the advantage of having sea. It's a great country. It's a big country, but they don't have sea. They don't have the ports. And so they have a difficult problem. But when you look at what's happened with Europe, many of those countries, they don't have those problems. And they buy a lot of oil and gas from Russia. And as they know, I'm very disturbed by that because we're helping them and they're going and buying oil and gas from Russia. So that question could be really asked maybe more accurately if you talked about many European countries, not Hungary necessarily, because Hungary is in a different position. But many European countries are buying oil and gas from Russia. And they have been for years.

JD Vance “Do we want to go back to the failed policies of the Biden-Harris administration? No, we don't” JD Vance says Americans should be able to buy everything they need for their family and have enough money to take vocations “We're fighting better for you every single day. We want you to have enough prosperity to, yes, buy the things that you need, to, yes, buy those medications and put food on the table, but maybe to take a little vacation. Because if you work hard every single day, you ought to be able to enjoy the fruits of your labor. Maybe you want to buy something extra for your kids. Maybe you want to do something that you couldn't do when you were a kid, because that is the promise of the American dream, that we leave the next generation a little bit better off than the generation that came before What we had under the Biden-Harris administration is lower wages, we had higher prices, we had more people struggling to get by, and more people who gave up on the essentials instead of buying the things that they needed to buy. — Let's keep doubling down on American prosperity. Let's keep doubling down on the American worker. And let's tell— the rest of the crazy congressional Democrats that we are not going back. We are going forward to a brighter future for every single one of our citizens.”

"Why would I spend my Bitcoin? It's your one chance to save generational wealth." You'll often hear that from Bitcoiners in the Western world. But in 🇿🇦, we have a different relationship with money. "When you do start spending Bitcoin, you buy more Bitcoin so you can spend it as well, then you end up saving more as well. So you actually end up in a better position," says BTCarel 🟠⚡️🇿🇦 from Money⚡️Badger. It's even more powerful in Bitcoin circular economies, as Hermann Vivier from Bitcoin Ekasi explains. "What we're trying to do is to get Bitcoin to flow within the local community. It's not about how many merchants you onboard. It's about what happens to the sats that you spend," Vivier explains. "It's not about going out and onboarding shops. It's about onboarding one shop and then playing detective and finding out what they are doing with the sats that they are receiving." "You want to try and circulate the sats in the local community. You don't want those sats to leave the local community as far as possible. And with the effect being that when people are spending sats in our local circular economy, the value stays within the community." This was one of my favourite Bitcoin-focused #CHAINREACTION shows to date. Thanks again to vryfokkenou Stafford Masie Carel de Jager for joining Robert Baggs and I. You can find the full conversation on Cointelegraph in the comments 👇

"If you have ambitions to be a Professor at Yale, Harvard, or one of these big institutions, the way you do that is mostly by getting funding for research. It's by getting a lot of publishing - a lot flying around the world to talk about something. You need all of these things to bolster your reputation as an international expert in this area. Now, the best way to do that, at least in psychiatry but I suspect in other areas of medicine, is actually to collaborate with pharmaceutical companies to run clinical trials. They write the publications for you - most of it, they do a lot of the grunt work, they give you the protocols, and then, essentially, they fund you and fly you around the place. I used to remember, as a junior doctor, looking up to the Professors. And they would say, 'These drugs are safe and effective. There's not a lot of problems there.' ...What I've seen more and more is that they've been compromised, and that they have incentives tied to the money and to career advancement. That means that they can't be as forthright as they ought to be about these things. And it's gotten to a problem where these are the Professors who are training the doctors who are setting the tone for what is acceptable care out there. And I think that's one of the biggest problems out there." - @taperclinic

Secunder Kermani talks to Israeli settler Ariel #C4News SK, "The idea of you coming here from America to here, settling in Gaza, kicking Palestinians out. A lot of people would see that as settler colonialism" Ariel, "It's not colonialism, it's a return.. My grandparents were kicked out of Israel by Arabs who were trying to establish a Palestinian state, and they had to leave for their survival" "And I think colonialism gets a bad rap" "Colonising places that are genocidal and they have bad ideologies, it's good to come in and colonise their views" SK, "What do you think should happen to the people who are already in Gaza?" Ariel, "I know Spain said they would take a couple of million.. I know Russia said they would take a couple of thousand" SK, "To a lot of people that sounds like you're advocating ethnic cleansing" Ariel, "I don't think so because Palestinian isn't an ethnicity, it's an ideology.. It's an ideology that says it wants Jews dead, and so we want them as far away from Jews as possible"

Trump: I’m looking at it… I want to take care of the people that have houses that have a value, you know, to the house that they never thought possible that have sort of made them wealthy and happy, and, you know, especially in their later years, got to be careful with that. I want to keep them up. At the same time, I want to make it possible for people to go buy houses.

President Kagame on sports shaping countries’ economies in the future: It's not just the future. When you talk about, for example, the arena, the stadium, it's already happening. People are taking notice of that and counting and knowing that it has employed so many, it has brought in so much. And that interaction around people here and beyond, with the rest of the world, speaks volumes in terms of value. So it has already brought in a lot. And it's a question of growing that. And we also know that statistics show that even across Africa, in terms of sports, it's running into billions as to what sports can bring to the continent, tens of billions. I think what we do as leaders at different levels is to encourage people to be part of realizing that story and reaping the benefits. And it's happening. So it's no longer something you just listen to and think it is for others and not for you. Now people believe, they start by believing. And when they start by believing and see things happening, then they believe even more and get more involved. And, I mean, the sky is the limit.

Don’t hate the truth & Don't buy things disguised as"assets" when in reality they will depreciate and turn into liabilities. If you're going to buy a car, don't. Lease it for 2 years ONLY. As soon as you drive it off the lot it will have already lost value. What's your take?

American Veterinarian was at a Veterinary Conference She says that all the Vets there say the same thing, they are all being bombarded with weekly phone calls from corporations and private equity firms to buy their practices This is why taking your pet to the vet has skyrocketed in price “This is a huge problem in the veterinary industry. When I'm at this conference with all of these very boutique, artisan, amazing veterinarians that are so passionate about what they do, the biggest thing that they talk about is this corporate takeover of the veterinary industry — it's just steamrolling the industry and it really affects the patient care and every step of the process” “I asked her, I said, are people bombarding you? Are corporations bombarding you to buy your practice? And she said, yes, they are. It's constantly. Every single week, she has multiple corporations that are approaching her with great offers to buy her practice.”

Elon Musk: Anyone who wants to make more than they take has my respect “I'm a big fan of anyone who wants to build. So I think anyone who wants to make more than they take has my respect. So that's the main thing you should aim for. Aim to make more than you take. Be a net contributor to society. It's kind of like the pursuit of happiness. If you want to create something valuable financially, you don't pursue that. It's best to actually pursue providing useful products and services. If you do that, then money will come as a natural consequence of that, as opposed to pursuing money directly. It's like you can't sort of pursue happiness directly. You pursue things that lead to happiness. But there's not like a direct happiness pursuit. You do things like fulfilling work or study or friends, loved ones, that, as a result, make you happy. It sounds very obvious, but generally, if somebody's trying to make a company work, they should expect to grind super hard, except that there's like some meaningful chance of failure. But just be focused on having the output be worth more than the input. Are you a value creator? That's what really matters. Make more than you take.”
