Putting this out here as a sign to tap when folks respond with "things are worse today" or "middle class shrinking" or other wrong ideas they have. Everyone should internalize and have these charts as core understanding of the world today. The time price of everything has gone

The people who came before us met a grim and brutal world with integrity and the resolve to make it better. We critique this past from a morality only affordable in a society of abundance. In a foxhole, there are no atheists. In the jungle, there is no compassion. Be better.

If you played this game (and I did) you need to be paranoid and live well under your means Freedom comes from avoiding lifestyle creep and knowing when you’re at the top there are no long term guarantees tl;dr agree with all the “skill issue” responses here

No. I will not use cold water all the time. I will build a future of abundance and fix the problems in the way of living a comfortable life - for myself, for everyone. This attitude is giving up. I will not give up.

Non consensus view: AI is already a commodity. OpenAI was not as good as Google’s best internal stuff (I know, was there, worked with teams building Google’s stuff). But they shipped faster and better. No one is 10x better, and OSS models are following fast. The winner will

Apple will probably win LLMs. They'll release a model that runs locally/native on your iPhone, is good enough, has great privacy/security and has access to all your personal data. The advantages of larger foundation models will be negligible for 99% of tasks.

I hate regulation but …. hear me out on this one. The US *must* make it illegal to show those stupid cookie popups all over the web. We can’t allow the EU to export its stupid paternalistic pollution to us here in the land of freedom.

Want to stop socialism? One weird trick: let America build again Build houses, build factories, build anything When we build, we prosper, and we win

Why is housing so expensive? Because the government constrains supply. Simple as that. Top 3 policy issue in the U.S. has a straightforward libertarian solution.

Have experienced this Our family business - non union - ran circles around the union shop next door I remember as a kid totally befuddled how adults could laze around and not care about getting the job done well and quickly And yet there they were, slacking, while we worked

Couldn’t move machine inside fabtech because the union labor “doesn’t work past 3pm” Offered to move it in myself but was physically prevented from doing so because of union labor laws here I am starting to understand why people hate unions so much

So then make your own billion and donate it. I can’t give a crap how other people spend their money. Nor do I want to confiscate it and force different choices if I disagree with them. Just don’t get this outrage / upset.

So my kid's private school had a speaker today speaking favorably about degrowth 😡💢 This at an awesome STEM school where kids build cool shit. These are e/acc kids! 🤖📈 I have already offered to give a pro-growth pro-capitalism e/acc talk as a rebuttal - guaranteed my talk

I cannot understand how any rational human is in favor of rent controls. It delivers the opposite of what they want. My theory is pols know it’s dumb but voters don’t so pols give voters free candy (rent control) knowing this will result in roach infested candy or no candy.
