I thought getting a $1M fee from Goldman Sachs as a young banker was a big win. But my client completely shattered my belief… At the closing dinner of a $100M deal, they turned to me and said: 𝘠𝘰𝘶 𝘸𝘰𝘶𝘭𝘥 𝘩𝘢𝘷𝘦 𝘵𝘰 𝘥𝘰 100 𝘥𝘦𝘢𝘭𝘴 𝘭𝘪𝘬𝘦 𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘴 𝘵𝘰 𝘮𝘢𝘬𝘦 𝘸𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘐 𝘮𝘢𝘥𝘦 𝘸𝘪𝘵𝘩 𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘴 𝘰𝘯𝘦. He had used one of the most powerful things to shift a belief: 𝗔𝗻 𝗼𝗿𝗱𝗲𝗿 𝗼𝗳 𝗺𝗮𝗴𝗻𝗶𝘁𝘂𝗱𝗲 𝗿𝗲𝗳𝗿𝗮𝗺𝗲. This is when I realized that my path wasn’t to be an advisor… it was to be an entrepreneur. The sooner you figure out which one you are, the clearer your path becomes.

A Swedish-born economist says you have no idea what you’re asking for. Fifteen years ago, America and Europe grew neck and neck. Then Europe stalled. Today America is 𝟓𝟎% 𝐫𝐢𝐜𝐡𝐞𝐫 — even though the EU has 100 million more people.

𝐁𝐈𝐋𝐋 𝐌𝐀𝐇𝐄𝐑: “𝐖𝐄 𝐀𝐒𝐊 𝐓𝐇𝐄𝐒𝐄 𝐏𝐄𝐎𝐏𝐋𝐄 𝐄𝐕𝐄𝐑𝐘 𝐖𝐄𝐄𝐊. 𝐓𝐇𝐄𝐘 𝐒𝐀𝐘 𝐍𝐎.” This montage from Real Time is something every Democrat should have to watch. Maher lays it out plainly: the biggest names in the Democratic Party — Hillary Clinton, Bill Clinton, Kamala Harris — 𝐫𝐞𝐟𝐮𝐬𝐞 to come on his show. “𝘗𝘦𝘰𝘱𝘭𝘦 𝘢𝘴𝘬 𝘮𝘦 𝘢𝘭𝘭 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘵𝘪𝘮𝘦, 𝘸𝘩𝘺 𝘩𝘢𝘷𝘦𝘯’𝘵 𝘺𝘰𝘶 𝘦𝘷𝘦𝘳 𝘩𝘢𝘥 𝘏𝘪𝘭𝘭𝘢𝘳𝘺 𝘰𝘳 𝘉𝘪𝘭𝘭 𝘊𝘭𝘪𝘯𝘵𝘰𝘯 𝘰𝘯?

𝘈𝘯𝘥 𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘴𝘦 𝘢𝘳𝘦 𝘱𝘦𝘰𝘱𝘭𝘦, 𝘢𝘭𝘭 𝘱𝘦𝘰𝘱𝘭𝘦 𝘐 𝘷𝘰𝘵𝘦𝘥 𝘧𝘰𝘳. 𝘛𝘩𝘪𝘯𝘬 𝘢𝘣𝘰𝘶𝘵 𝘵𝘩𝘢𝘵. 𝘛𝘩𝘦𝘺’𝘳𝘦 𝘢𝘧𝘳𝘢𝘪𝘥 𝘵𝘰 𝘤𝘰𝘮𝘦 𝘰𝘯 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘴𝘩𝘰𝘸 𝘰𝘧 𝘢 𝘨𝘶𝘺 𝘸𝘩𝘰 𝘷𝘰𝘵𝘦𝘥 𝘧𝘰𝘳 𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘮.” And who does show up? “𝘛𝘩𝘦 𝘙𝘦𝘱𝘶𝘣𝘭𝘪𝘤𝘢𝘯𝘴? 𝘛𝘩𝘦𝘺 𝘴𝘩𝘰𝘸 𝘶𝘱.” That’s the tell. Republicans walk into adversarial interviews. Democrats won’t even walk into 𝐟𝐫𝐢𝐞𝐧𝐝𝐥𝐲 ones — because Maher asks follow-up questions, and follow-up questions are what the Democratic messaging apparatus cannot survive. Then the clip shifts to Maher defending Trump on foreign policy — to his own liberal audience. “𝘏𝘦 𝘣𝘰𝘮𝘣𝘦𝘥 𝘐𝘳𝘢𝘯. 𝘛𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘸𝘢𝘴 𝘢 𝘗𝘶𝘵𝘪𝘯 𝘢𝘭𝘭𝘺. 𝘏𝘦 𝘥𝘪𝘥𝘯’𝘵 𝘨𝘦𝘵 𝘰𝘶𝘵 𝘰𝘧 𝘕𝘈𝘛𝘖. 𝘏𝘦 𝘮𝘦𝘯𝘥𝘦𝘥 𝘧𝘦𝘯𝘤𝘦𝘴 𝘸𝘪𝘵𝘩 𝘕𝘈𝘛𝘖. 𝘈𝘯𝘥 𝘩𝘦 𝘱𝘶𝘵 𝘴𝘢𝘯𝘤𝘵𝘪𝘰𝘯𝘴 𝘣𝘢𝘤𝘬 𝘰𝘯 𝘙𝘶𝘴𝘴𝘪𝘢.” When someone accused him of “coming around,” Maher shot back: “𝘐’𝘮 𝘯𝘰𝘵 𝘤𝘰𝘮𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘢𝘳𝘰𝘶𝘯𝘥. 𝘛𝘩𝘦𝘳𝘦’𝘴 𝘯𝘰 𝘤𝘰𝘮𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘢𝘳𝘰𝘶𝘯𝘥. 𝘛𝘩𝘦𝘳𝘦’𝘴 𝘫𝘶𝘴𝘵 𝘸𝘩𝘢𝘵’𝘴 𝘵𝘳𝘶𝘦.” Then there’s the White House ballroom segment, where Maher defended the renovation: “𝘠𝘰𝘶’𝘳𝘦 𝘯𝘰𝘵 𝘱𝘢𝘺𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘧𝘰𝘳 𝘪𝘵. 𝘐𝘵’𝘴 𝘱𝘳𝘪𝘷𝘢𝘵𝘦. 𝘍𝘪𝘳𝘴𝘵 𝘰𝘧 𝘢𝘭𝘭, 𝘦𝘷𝘦𝘯 𝘪𝘧 𝘸𝘦 𝘥𝘪𝘥, 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘞𝘩𝘪𝘵𝘦 𝘏𝘰𝘶𝘴𝘦 𝘥𝘰𝘦𝘴 𝘢𝘤𝘵𝘶𝘢𝘭𝘭𝘺 𝘯𝘦𝘦𝘥 𝘢 𝘣𝘢𝘭𝘭𝘳𝘰𝘰𝘮. 𝘞𝘦’𝘳𝘦 𝘢 𝘣𝘪𝘨 𝘤𝘰𝘶𝘯𝘵𝘳𝘺. 𝘞𝘦 𝘸𝘦𝘳𝘦 𝘩𝘢𝘷𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘴𝘵𝘢𝘵𝘦 𝘥𝘪𝘯𝘯𝘦𝘳𝘴 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘱𝘦𝘰𝘱𝘭𝘦 𝘸𝘦𝘳𝘦 𝘭𝘪𝘬𝘦 𝘪𝘯 𝘶𝘯𝘥𝘦𝘳 𝘢 𝘵𝘦𝘯𝘵. 𝘐’𝘷𝘦 𝘩𝘢𝘥 𝘣𝘦𝘵𝘵𝘦𝘳 𝘱𝘢𝘳𝘵𝘪𝘦𝘴 𝘵𝘩𝘢𝘯 𝘵𝘩𝘢𝘵.” The liberal outrage machine is so reflexive that it attacks a private donation to improve the People’s House — and Maher called it out. This is a man who voted Democrat his entire life, told his audience he doesn’t hate the Iran bombing, showed clips of Iranians doing the Trump dance on his show (Yahoo Entertainment), and has called the Iranian government a 𝐟𝐚𝐬𝐜𝐢𝐬𝐭 𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐨𝐜𝐫𝐚𝐜𝐲. He’s not switching parties. He’s just refusing to lie — and that alone is enough to make him radioactive to the Democratic establishment. His own show gets 𝐡𝐢𝐠𝐡𝐞𝐫 𝐑𝐞𝐩𝐮𝐛𝐥𝐢𝐜𝐚𝐧 𝐯𝐢𝐞𝐰𝐞𝐫𝐬𝐡𝐢𝐩 𝐭𝐡𝐚𝐧 𝐃𝐞𝐦𝐨𝐜𝐫𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐜 𝐯𝐢𝐞𝐰𝐞𝐫𝐬𝐡𝐢𝐩 now — not because Maher moved right, but because the left moved away from anyone who asks inconvenient questions.

This is so disrespectful how Babyface was treated in this interview. Babyface has had such a significant impact on the music industry, in sooo many ways. Its maddening to see a LEGEND not get the respect and attention they deserve. He is a pioneer and deserves so much better than this. With decades of groundbreaking work as a songwriter, producer, and performer, he's shaped the sound of multiple generations. I love you Babyface And I am a forever fan and thankful for all that you have blessed us with By the way- what a class act you are PS big or small, old or new, - you don't treat people like this. At least not in my eyes. There's a way to handle this and this was wrong in my opinion

My heart is so heavy💔A friend of a friend has lost an 18-year-old to suicide… a quiet, deeply painful loss that didn’t make headlines but matters just as much. And then, innocent children taken in such a brutal act of violence in a place that should have been safe for them. It’s all just too much. No family should ever have to endure this kind of pain. No parent should have to bury a child. No community should wake up to such horror. To all the families affected, I am deeply sorry for your loss. May you find strength in each other, and may the souls we’ve lost rest in peace. We have to do better as a society. Life is sacred. Our children deserve safety, love, and a future. Holding you all in my thoughts and prayers. #MUKAMAYAMBA😢

This is a video demonstrating a brand new asteroid tracking technique I made that is so powerful that it can precisely track Stealth Fighters better than any other Stealth tracking technique in existence even when it is using just three $30 webcams. This same technique can be used interchangeably with thermal cameras and can majorly upgrade Radar systems. It is also able to massively increase the effective resolution of 3D scanning techniques such as CT scanners and cryo electron-microscopy. I've added notes at 4:15 and at 9:10 which go into detail about why I think this hasn't been done yet and what the things are that you think that this is but it isn't. Pretty much all of the problems you can think of with the system are extremely easy to fix if you use a little bit of brainpower to solve them.

𝗚𝗟𝗘𝗡𝗡 𝗕𝗘𝗖𝗞: 𝗧𝗛𝗜𝗦 𝗜𝗦 𝗖𝗛𝗘𝗠𝗢𝗧𝗛𝗘𝗥𝗔𝗣𝗬 Glenn Beck just delivered one of the most clarifying analogies of this entire conflict. Worth reading carefully. Islamism — the revolutionary apocalyptic ideology behind the Iranian regime — is cancer. And like cancer, we spent 47 years in denial. We told ourselves the lump was probably nothing. We tried negotiations. We tried sanctions without enforcement. We hoped it would just stop growing. Cancer never makes that decision. Because cancer, to live, must feed on something. Now the scan is back and the doctor is telling us what we never wanted to hear: 𝘪𝘵'𝘴 𝘯𝘰 𝘭𝘰𝘯𝘨𝘦𝘳 𝘪𝘴𝘰𝘭𝘢𝘵𝘦𝘥. 𝘐𝘵'𝘴 𝘦𝘷𝘦𝘳𝘺𝘸𝘩𝘦𝘳𝘦. So the treatment has to match the stage. You don't treat stage four with a band-aid. You do chemo. And chemo is brutal. It makes you sick. It makes you weak. You lose hair. You vomit. You feel worse during treatment than you did before it started. Beck's analogy for the side effects: the terror attacks happening right now. ODU. The Michigan synagogue. Gracie Mansion. Those are the hair falling out. And some people — Tucker Carlson, Steve Bannon, the non-interventionist wing — will say, in a very narrow sense correctly, that we were better off before the chemo started. Beck's answer is devastating: 𝘺𝘰𝘶 𝘸𝘦𝘳𝘦 𝘥𝘺𝘪𝘯𝘨. 𝘠𝘰𝘶 𝘫𝘶𝘴𝘵 𝘧𝘦𝘭𝘵 𝘣𝘦𝘵𝘵𝘦𝘳. If Reagan had acted after Beirut, none of this would have been necessary. The tumor was small. We chose delay. We chose hope. We chose 47 years of polite diplomacy with something that does not negotiate and does not stop. Now there are no good options left. There's just this — or d*ath. Do you want to live or not? That's the only question left on the table.

Asked Cheryl Reeve what it means to her to see the outpouring of support on pride nights in the WNBA (quoted it al because it’s an incredibly powerful quote) Thank you Rob from Chester, Pa for posting the video 🤝🙏 “It makes me reflect on… back when we weren’t really embracing things like our gay population at the games, it was considered a knock on the product. Once we really started leaning into it and embracing it and saying “this is a big part of the reason the WNBA was finding success”. No question about it it’s a welcoming place, for everyone… LGBTQ plus has been such a big part of the growth of the W, they were there from day one, and I’m happy we lean into it now…. The WNBA, why I love it so much, I knew my first year in 2001 when I was coaching, I came out of college coaching where you had to be closeted, at that time in the 90s. Because it was used against you in recruiting, and you would have code words or maybe not, maybe more direct “do you want that lesbian coaching your daughter?” Or maybe men were perceived not to be gay so it was considered a more family atmosphere. There was so many things that were happening to us and didn’t get jobs if maybe you had that label. In the WNBA I felt so able to be myself and it was so incredibly liberating. And not a day in the WNBA, I have not walked and felt comfortable in my own skin. Every single day. The league is for everybody, we embrace everybody regardless of gender identity or political beliefs or whatever it is, the WNBA is incredibly special and has always been special to me”

For my birthday this year I’m here in Thailand to rescue this poor elephant who’s been in chains for 45 years and deserves her freedom! It’s heartbreaking to see such a majestic animal enslaved and abused all her life — she’s even blind in her right eye likely due to a bullhook which is how captors keep their elephants are kept in check. So please retweet this and donate to this new fundraiser here as I’m asking my students and everyone in the Karmagawa community to join me and SageTrader Foundation in donating to help set her free as Lek and Elephant Nature Park have graciously agreed to take her in so she can live in a cruelty-free sanctuary and never be in chains or get hit with a bullhook again! Every dollar donated helps, but even if you can’t donate please share my birthday fundraiser with your followers and tell them to also share as together we can TRULY make a difference as innocent animals deserve so much better than this! #animalrescue #birthdaywish

December 2nd will forever be the day our paths crossed with Zeudi for the very first time. We had no idea then how much she would come to mean to us. Day by day, story by story, smile by smile… we got to know her a little more. And in these 365 days, we laughed with her, cried with her, rooted for her, and welcomed her into our lives in the most genuine way, like family. And somehow, she opened her heart to us just the same. Zeudi is the proof that kindness and strength can live beautifully in the same person. She shows us every day that you don’t have to accept the labels the world tries to put on you. You can be more, so much more. You can be breathtakingly beautiful and fiercely talented. A badass tattoo artist and the softest soul in the room. A giver of the warmest hugs and an old soul wrapped in a 24 year old body. She reminds us that being yourself is enough, and being yourself is powerful. Thank you, Zeudi, for staying true to who you are, and for inspiring people from every corner of the world to try, every day, to become better versions of themselves. We see you. We admire you. We’re grateful for you. To celebrate these unforgettable 365 days, we put together something special: Thank you to Ines Fernandes, for doing all the editing on such short notice, you did amazing, and to every single Zeudiner who helped gather these clips. When this community comes together, we truly create something beautiful. And still, this is only the beginning. #zeudiners

Dylan Patel on the importance of memory and storage Two key quotes: "An $NVDA GPU is faster than an $AMD GPU in most cases, but because AMD GPUs have more memory, they can outperform Nvidia in certain workloads." “It is a difficult, multivariable problem. Generally, you need the best GPU, such as a GB300, but you also need the best storage solutions. I will not spoil who comes out on top, but storage solutions matter a lot, memory solutions matter a lot, and frontend networking also matters significantly" Full Quote: “We have over $80 million of compute: GPUs from $NVDA and $AMD, TPUs from Google, and Trainium from Amazon. We constantly run this benchmark using the newest inference engines, drivers, PyTorch versions, and other software. It runs every day through automated CI across the latest Chinese models from GLM, Zhipu, Moonshot, Kimi, Alibaba, and others. Initially, when we were benchmarking the differences between these chips, inference engines, and parallelism schemes, we used fixed context lengths. But with Agent X, we have now analyzed more than $5 million worth of Claude Code traces. This is real production traffic that users have donated to us, combined with internally generated data, so we now understand what an actual agent workload looks like. When we implement those workloads and run the benchmarks, it turns out that the chip you are using is very important, but how you handle memory offload can be even more important. An Nvidia GPU is faster than an AMD GPU in most cases, but because AMD GPUs have more memory, they can outperform Nvidia in certain workloads. Similarly, you can use a less powerful GPU with a much better storage solution and outperform the best GPU when it lacks those solutions. Simply buying the newest GPU does not necessarily give you the best inference economics. You need to layer in other innovations, including storage and memory.” Interviewer: “Who is the top player on your chart? Can you tell us?” Dylan Patel: “It is a difficult, multivariable problem. Generally, you need the best GPU, such as a GB300, but you also need the best storage solutions.

You can critique Israeli policy on any grounds you choose. But Islam was an existential enemy of the West long before the State of Israel was founded — across 14 centuries and counting.

The thinned Byzantine defenders — some 7,000 to 8,000 — had to take penance before God for k!lling in battle. The attackers needed no such penance. They were promised paradise for breaking through. That asymmetry in moral accounting partly explains why they won. The Tucker critique doesn’t hold up under scrutiny. Tucker visits Saudi Arabia and says he feels great as a Christian.
