@Duderichy @ouranometrian ngmi

@powerbottomdad1 @joe_r_Odonnell @eigenrobot so deep bro

@houellebecq_2 Boring movie I’ll stand by this

@populusaigeiros @houellebecq_2 train to busan is not bad

@populusaigeiros @houellebecq_2 i liked the world war z book

@powerbottomdad1 so true

@powerbottomdad1 I don’t get this one

@AdamNeumannsCoS Seems to have worked for clubhouse

@AshkenaziFugazi so true king

broke: kali yuga woke: cali yuga

@halvorz believe true paper it is always magical to feel that you know a little understood secret

@krishnanrohit so true

@halvorz plus positive results beget more positive results so it gives you a research edge negative results don’t beget anything in the general case

obviously the efficacy of gifted programs shouldn’t be graded on the average case (whiners on twitter) but the outliers whose talents would’ve otherwise been marginalized

>just homeschool sounds good doesn’t work. expensive and boring >they’ll take the standardized test and get into a good college not after they ban all the standardized tests and even if you do you’re at a disadvantage vs the kids doing APs

crying and pissing myself that nobody has offered me a VC job yet https://x.com/notzoetaylor/status/1446862317606612994

@BarneyFlames hmm

@krishnanrohit based

@notzoetaylor tyfys zoe

@sameQCU what does this even mean obviously the kids of highly successful people are GMI no matter what

@AdamNeumannsCoS lol that can’t be true

@SkepticalAlpaca that’s fair

You should seriously consider what side you would have been on during the Finno-Korean Hyperwar

@Quester1791 yes

@cauchyfriend @alth0u lol so true

@averykimball @halvorz ok I ran a correlation on the relationship between eating Twinkie’s and gdp growth and found nothing now where do I go next

@salt_koala so true

@averykimball @halvorz most such examples will not disprove prior art

@averykimball @halvorz as in most things a researcher tries will not be disproving prior intuitions accepted by the research community

@averykimball @halvorz actually I’ve lost the plot ignore me

@michaelcurzi Great artists steal 😎

thinking abt all the people crowing that protein folding wasn’t solved due to the complexes lol. turns out it’s a few month delta https://x.com/iScienceLuvr/status/1446583484915482624

it still isn’t solved bc it only works with plausible MSAs but that’s another story

@PstafarianPrice no i am saying this almost tautologically because i don’t think nearly anyone would stand for their beliefs on something so unremarkable when threatened with death or homelessness or something. no particular judgement about you

@kitten_beloved @PstafarianPrice Exactly

@mraginsky not sure why it would be particularly difficult to do structure prediction of allosteric proteins this is not binding, just static structures

@mraginsky ah I see what you mean - no I don’t think they’ve made progress on that yet. Might be interesting to try out

@finnitejest Sweet Finn

@dcwych rekt

@dcwych this one seems straightforward and we should get on this ASAP

@ibeckermayer @PstafarianPrice I get it, I sense the creeping bureaucratic evil, I just don’t think that this is actually threatening the “roof over his head” or whatever he said

need to become high status enough that nobody ever exhorts you to “just be normal” again

@PstafarianPrice I don’t want to argue about it so I’ll take it down whenever I please sorry

@PstafarianPrice i basically think only dramatic losers with zero skin in the game and zero chance of hurting their own material comfort would quit their jobs over a symbolic loss like a vaccine mandate and I’ll stand by that

@default_dad @MegaBasedChad @BroductManager I was saying optooomizing before Eric was born

@gbrl_dick honestly cope these days it’s like notgifted - ngmi gifted - you have a slight chance of making it

@graceisforyou its by far the coziest

@Virtual1nstinct bro I did the exact same thing for science Olympiad lul

how are the North Koreans not already on this

@generativist it appears so

@generativist also wow baitnswitch on the pfp

@eigenrobot @fistlosopher no i think this is fine actually bc the question is trying to avoid actual hacking related answers (eg i broke thru their firewall and deleted their records ...)

@nickcammarata on brand

@eigenrobot @fistlosopher trying to lowkey crowdsource an application but also thought the answers would be fun

@DaapMeUpDaddy @BroductManager 😢

seems futile to try and make density “cool” obviously nobody likes density — that’s why you have to pay to avoid it https://x.com/Noahpinion/status/1447249537798598661

density is more like the bitter medicine that high state capacity jurisdictions will make their citizenry swallow, similar to congestion taxes, gas/carbon taxes, legalizing “price gouging”, etc so in other words not happening in the us 😂

@GreySmithereens you pay for the city, you don’t pay for the density the richest in eg San Francisco still have properties where they don’t have to share walls

@Hellachans I’ve already accepted this but I don’t know if it really changes anything wish we could all have mansions that are also close to work but seems physically impossible

@0x543211 this is very much a thing but pretty much exclusively the purview of the mega rich

to the people saying you like density. no you don’t. you like your big popular city, local amenities etc, but i doubt you like your shoebox apartment and even if you’re one of the rare ones who does most Americans aren’t like that

@sameQCU true

btw this is coming from the king of all bugmen and even I get annoyed having roommates and listening to road noise

@InvictusDude idk this feels like a thing that gets old especially if you have a family

@LucioMM1 that’s always true lol

@Hellachans yeah these exist obv but seems to be the purview of the very rich

@varunramg yeah I prefer this too but I like it a lot better when you get like 1500 sqft of it lol

@pacificroaming @InvictusDude do you see anywhere I disagree? my second tweet pretty much endorses this

@arctanno @Nearcyan true but dorm conditions are inhuman most people wouldn’t go for that again lol

@pacificroaming @InvictusDude me too! I love proximity to crowds eg “big popular city”

@yhdistyminen I personally dislike it too but disagree with “most”

@moultano there are megarich enclaves in high proximity to city centers with SFH that will have far higher per unit prices than similar location apartments of course the higher the land value the more likely developers are to build high density apartments there

@peachblvd Pig

@argosopentech lmao no sane person will be unbothered by a motorcycle at 4 am

@moultano of course — in fact I’m explicitly endorsing denser housing to be more economically efficient but nobody should kid themselves re whether an avg individual would choose apt or house in the same area (excepting something like a high rise penthouse)

@halvorz had to go back and unlike the first two tweets after reading the third tweet

@halvorz not that i necessarily agree but i press like on everything that doesn’t explicitly anger me

@Austen grand reveal time: i am austen's alt

@SkepticalAlpaca lol what does it even mean to win $10trillion. a year ago there wasn’t even that much liquid M1 supply in the world

@ghosttyped yep

@ParrotRobot holy based I mean this would be great but I know for a fact there’s a guy living in a 70th floor 2000 sqft penthouse in this same area and I’d rather have that instead

@yhdistyminen @Jeff_Weimer the rich do though. they take a cab or get a permanent driver

@yhdistyminen @Jeff_Weimer even in places like New York with excellent transit

@rickyflows these takes give me life

@ghosttyped I’m also thinking of like Hayes valley in sf

@diviacaroline tell ur 9yo to @ me next time

@willhinsa idk it’s not that intuitive to me

@shriyanevatia I don’t mean literal instincts I mean intuition that may be trained by nurture but I kind of doubt it

@JCorvinusVR @storebrandguy @Mousr8 lmao

@Mousr8 I should not have said instinctively I just mean “gut reaction” which can be cultural or biological or entirely otherwise

@Mousr8 nobody “hates” space but I’ve seen a lot more women comment on being entirely indifferent to space whereas virtually every man I know gets excited. all anecdata though

@Mousr8 https://x.com/alicefromqueens/status/1362993219584352256

@Mousr8 It’s a massive effect size to explain away like that

@shriyanevatia @storebrandguy This alone explains the 25 point differential ? you’re saying risk aversion essentially

@Mousr8 I stand corrected just remembered that @alt1na1 literally hates space https://x.com/alt1na1/status/1441437537323548678

i did not use any of these because mine was both more effective and more fucked up

@storebrandguy @shriyanevatia btw I don’t think nuclear power is any particular panacea. Im just doing some anthropology

@Mousr8 I mean the effect size on the vox poll but agreed here as well

@storebrandguy @shriyanevatia rarely

@Mousr8 I’m not gonna use it against anybody Would be silly to hold group differences against individuals tbh I’m very neutral on nuclear fuels and extremely ++ on space

@Mousr8 current economics of fission are not great from what I can tell and Ill believe in fusion the moment they open the first real reactor (though I’m hopeful)

@storebrandguy @Mousr8 that’s fair

holy based

@storebrandguy @PageSeverian @Mousr8 so true

@peachblvd bittersweet is the best flavor

@MoonParamour type theory is all symbols bro

@PrinceVogel cross country DoorDash if you’re a chad

@JoshSchoen Yes

@mattschaar cope

@BlackPilot__ ty :)

@Youarethetime1 @alt1na1 new fren just dropped

ok people are clearly not understanding this thread development, densification, upzoning of city cores is obviously economically optimal and I support it I just think it’ll never work to try and make it sexy https://x.com/tszzl/status/1447347554685947906

some also clearly misunderstand the cause effect relationship between price and density land price increases density rather than the other way around the most sought after neighborhoods in the world are both (relatively) low density yet still close to everything https://x.com/ghosttyped/status/1447387185817296898

@writingbree @wrathofgnon not really

@djmicrobeads it’s magic all the way down

@upzonesocalpls https://x.com/tszzl/status/1447667586641145862?s=20

@upzonesocalpls @cw4emeryville @ChrisByBike btw i encourage building taller and i am extremely urbanist lmao please reread the thread if everyone could have 1800 sqft multi level apartments in a 70 story building that would obviously be ideal but its clearly cost prohibitive for most

@kto1243 @upzonesocalpls i live in san francsico

@MatthewDownhour densifying is still the optimal land use some people will suffer density to enjoy proximity the richest will enjoy both sparsity and proximity

@HProgressivism yes thats very fair but when noah says sell your SFH and accept your rowhouse he means "accept fewer square feet"

@MatthewDownhour again i am in full agreement -- many are mistaking my descriptive thread for something prescriptive. zoning should be heavily relaxed in city cores

new new urbanism is where we build skyscrapers that have several 2000 sqft multi story condo units inside each with balcony

@justjoshinyou13 exactly

@arcadio_g_s exactly this is what I really meant

@btbytes your kid will be blessed with prodigious rotation ability

can someone explain why startup options have nonzero strike price

@tscarrithers same i can do like <6 hours for a day and be relatively fine but two days in a row i turn into an incompetent sociopath

@mikewavsz it is cost prohibitive to build such units + they decay quickly seems like

@AdamNeumannsCoS @clerkyinc ok ty makes sense now

@moultano @maxdubler @ConradBastable this is almost purposefully misunderstanding my point

@DidNotBegin whats a hangover?

@contritepossum wait so let’s say you have to leave the company but your stock has like $100m in capital gains if you exercise options then do you just instantly get fucked if it’s illiquid? can you borrow against it to pay the IRS?

@lndian_Bronson @gerad_t0d @contritepossum obv sell to cover on schwab is not gonna work with private equity

@sloring_ look I’m not here to argue with public policy phds lol I’m sure we agree beyond some miscommunication my point is that as land value increases (centrality, proximity to workplaces, fashionability etc) the optimal choice for owners will change and they will want to build denser

@sloring_ this cause effect is obvious because if we relaxed zoning in say areas like the mission in San Francisco obviously developers would build tons of high rises because that’s the profit optimal decision but the land value was already high

@OswaldHurlem how am I wrong the higher the land price the more the incentive to build denser

@dragoncowman1 land price is a function of the desirability

@gbrl_dick the cost of prescarcity is either infanticide or birth control and there’s no third choice

@dragoncowman1 of course I’m talking about the market clearing price not just the ask

@thebestestpie @gbrl_dick true I guess if the weather and weird conditions wipes out half your tribe now and then you have effective “prescarcity” but idk doesn’t sound that fun

@alth0u True

@AnthonyMRoberto @salt_koala destroyed by facts and logic

@hur932x @ghosttyped UES is low density

@no_lying_online sry sry im trying to delet it

I should not have made this thread because the lowest reading comprehension mfers on the planet logged on to yell at me

@samdman95 goddammit you people are misunderstanding me on purpose

@deepenergyy ty

@CHRdollarsign yeah it was a bit sus. Honestly I didn’t know about the origin of that joke lol

99.9% https://x.com/tszzl/status/1222256065045200901

@andrej_ngmi had to do it to em

@samdman95 no this topic genuinely attracts people that are not interested in listening, just yelling. you all have been in the trenches for so long you don’t even recognize people on your own side lol

@samdman95 im a big city pro upzoning bugman through and through and even im under no illusions that people would rather live in 500 sqft instead of 1500 sqft and a yard independent of other considerations. there is no point exhorting people with houses to get in the pod

@lisatomic5 @powerbottomdad1 holy based

alain bertaud. Please note the order of operations

@haus_cole https://x.com/tszzl/status/1448090655130062855

@sorkincel @samdman95 literally yes this is possible and happens all the time in cities with restrictive zoning lol

@samdman95 @alfred_twu do you see that Noah is asking people to explicitly sell their house and get something with less sqft I understand perfectly well $/sqft drops when upzoning happens

@lisatomic5 @powerbottomdad1 how did he know I’m capable of levitating ?

@samdman95 @alfred_twu at any rate there is no clear demarcation between overcrowding and density if you can’t increase height you will increase crowding. if you take my case to the extreme you’ll understand nobody wants to live in Kowloon walled city

@samdman95 @alfred_twu and most people’s ideal density obviously falls far short of Kowloon so my argument is trivially true many people see Noah’s tweet and interpret it as not only an attack on their way of life but disingenuous only after reading several of those takes I made this thread

@samdman95 @alfred_twu this is my way of defending density on the right by making an appeal to the “bitter pill” but whatever mfers gonna be angry if they wanna be angry

@samdman95 @alfred_twu LA is a great example of how city popularity and land prices are created independent of density density is just the economic optimization of popular land

@ChoralsScholar yep

@Mike_Hinton let’s say best case you’re successful and now there are people listening to your thoughts on the internet does this create the best incentives for you to use your time or is it a local minimum

@GarshytHoel @BroductManager mildly ?

@enemy_egal i was being melodramatic

@Noahpinion i will lose tech bro clout for this but people also never talk about how land intensive the exclusion zones have to be for storing depleted nuclear fuels surrounding a reactor

@aniiyengar yeah basically extreme cope. I don’t respect any of these people because if you knew how to make a website in 1996 you should be rich by now

@ghosttyped @aniiyengar <one generation ago voice>: wow microprocessors are so complicated now. I miss the days where you could buy 30,000 transistors and assemble a RISC chip in my garage

@ghosttyped @aniiyengar bro you must be misremembering the blogspam of the mid 2000s. That was the heigh day of just linking from one page to the other and creating a pagerank black hole it’s an arms race and google seems to have won if anything

@ghosttyped @aniiyengar my point being it’s ok to trade off complexity for space age technology

@CHRdollarsign lmao

@ghosttyped @aniiyengar I think despite higher % being siloed we easily make up for it in volume

@arctanno @aniiyengar not sure if I understand what he means why are ad driven apps simpler? what does he mean “until that happens” isn’t most of the internet adtech driven

@TeddyRaccovelt I don’t think that’s a death knell or anything honestly

@vgr gotta keep things spicy with my newest mutual 😊

foundation is about the triumph of economics and the systematization of human behavior (rationalist) dune is about insane unpredictability of human ecologies and strong themes of darwinism (postrationalist)

@vgr lmao nice

@leepavelich lol yeah it dated itself so quickly it's kind of astounding

@seekingyaga ive read the first 3 books, honestly wish i stopped after the first few chapters. the best parts were the introduction on Trantor with hari seldon

@seekingyaga not sure i can point to the technical detail of "why" because it's been quite a while since i read foundation i just recall the prose being far more boring, the characters uninteresting, the worlds dry and without flair

@MaiqTL wait but the jihad is obviously a bad thing

@eigenrobot something about it is quintessentially rationalist I’ve recently learned there’s multiple interpretations of it but like “Special / intelligent people are only free until they are called to help mankind”

@eigenrobot the other interpretation is that being smart doesn’t matter because you end up committing genocide on accident

jihad*

@nathanael_gould I will decide that soon

going to perform a memetic pincer movement

@_AlastairX_ @nathanael_gould just got Reddit fact checked TM

@negativegucci Correct

@CHRdollarsign wtf delet this ser

@deepfates @JoeClibbens you’re so right my clout / effort ratio is off the charts

@deepfates @JoeClibbens you mistake my humblebrag for humility

@reconfigurthing @deepfates @JoeClibbens let us test this

@reconfigurthing @deepfates @JoeClibbens nvm twitter doesn’t allow this

@reconfigurthing @deepfates @JoeClibbens ⠀

@reconfigurthing @deepfates @JoeClibbens wait it lets me reply but not tweet

️

@reconfigurthing @deepfates @JoeClibbens @anonynaut ok done https://x.com/tszzl/status/1448767200731574272

@CHRdollarsign shin Godzilla is goated

@reconfigurthing @deepfates @JoeClibbens @anonynaut guess you were right

@deepfates idk I didn’t block anyone after I became main character on housing twitter

@deepfates they were really awful to me lol but idk felt more detached and sad than angry

@deepfates if interested you can look at the replies and QTs here https://x.com/tszzl/status/1447346843520798720

@deepfates yeah for ex idk how accounts like Noah smith can even get through the day poasting juicy red meat bait for 200k followers

@deepfates made of sturdier stuff than I

@deepfates lol idk I think on net I enjoy shouting and having people hear me than shouting into the void

@storebrandguy @deepfates yeah i don’t care about name calling it’s just upsetting that they get so mad about some anodyne take enough for that sam deutsch guy to do a post by post analysis

@storebrandguy @deepfates

@deepfates @generativist @storebrandguy high detachment as they say

@TenreiroDaniel Yeah fr they gotta chill

@TenreiroDaniel I also don’t wanna hear about vannevar bush ever again

@varunramg @deepfates @storebrandguy can you not snitch tag? why do people do this lol

@deepfates Discord due to its nice features and extensive bot integrations

@deepfates pretty much every crypto project now is started on a discord

@storebrandguy @varunramg @deepfates yeah @varunramg no offense I love you dawg but don’t snitch tag

@lastcontrarian https://x.com/tszzl/status/1343743644638060544

@lastcontrarian it’s a tough line to thread because most of the intellectual class coyly undervalue intelligence and talk about “epistemic trespassing” and stuff but there also genuinely a lot of people who overvalue intelligence and have unearned confidence

@lastcontrarian in short smart people coming into a new field are high variance but low mean: smart outsiders create a large portion of the total number of groundbreaking breakthroughs but on average are extremely annoying

was feeling existential dread today then it went away as soon as i drank my coffy

stole your aesthetic @__femb0t

@lastcontrarian agreed i think recommender systems are a fundamental breakthrough in knowledge sharing / epistemic trespassing because they bury low quality content and boost high quality content -- the trick is in selecting the quality measure

@lastcontrarian especially a fan of sites like arxiv where the viewers have a floor of intelligence so the recommendations / organic behavior tends to be pretty decent

@lastcontrarian also bullish on betting markets for replication and such

@_PeterRyan @lastcontrarian its gotta be prediction markets of some kind

rotating@home

@infinitsummer The Innovators has gotta be the best one

i don’t understand why people ascribe attention maximization to adtech profit motives when netflix is clearly there trying to autoplay the next episode and make their recsys better all the time. i mean hell even plex tries to autoplay and it’s a free product

on the margin id prefer that someone spends some time scrolling twitter than deadeyed watching Netflix

people claim that adtech erodes privacy but i would be shocked if Netflix doesn’t buy third party data to target their stuff better

@reachtarunhere yeah perhaps lol

https://privacy.commonsense.org/evaluation/Netflix > Data are shared with third-party service providers.

@PrinceVogel especially narcissists

@credenzaclear lol i ask this often bc i wanna learn abt the housing market more than i want to be polite male trait

@BlancheMinerva a story that essentially concludes that this technology is net positive and analogous to the invention of writing

@spakhm it’s mid both relatively and objectively

@gbrl_dick lol

@Hellachans this ambiguity is alpha

the Neanderthals had larger orbital cortices, better vision, better fine motor control, but still lost to the high verbal iq Homo sapiens

so Moravec’s paradox is basically fine

@DanielleFong do we know this for a fact? I thought it’s up for debate between intermarriage hypothesis and violent domination hypothesis

rahul and i are basically competing over the same pool of reply guys

@DanielleFong hmm so high likelihood of domination

@devonzuegel @starsandrobots seems that social tech is actually highly overrated considering the number of people that study polisci

@boop ive monopolized the reply girls

this thing is awesome and the naysayers are coping https://x.com/vogon/status/1448693181965430784

Tesla Dojo validated their efforts I just worry cerebras will never be able to write the requisite software to actually let people run stuff easily on this behemoth

@__femb0t I want to sleep on a giant WSE

@DogIsABot 100% yield by allowing for bypassable faulty cores https://www.anandtech.com/show/16626/cerebras-unveils-wafer-scale-engine-two-wse2-26-trillion-transistors-100-yield

@guavault please make some anime weapons goov

free advice to ML professors: dont take any phd students that can't parallel park. they cannot rotate shapes

@leepavelich yes

@lastcontrarian yeah this is literally what elon did

@lastcontrarian except obviously like 99.99%

@BaathistPundit @lastcontrarian right of course

nobody knows how to make propaganda videos like the Chinese. I watched an Alibaba recruitment thing at neurips 2020 and i'm still reeling

@thevoidbeckon @BroductManager im working with the canadian mounted police

@adriyoung I like nature about two times a year

@nathanael_gould the most interesting DR twitter acct is zero hp and it’s not close he is the only one that doesn’t purposefully obfuscate and pull other kinds of charlatan tricks

@nathanael_gould that's exactly why i find him palatable at all

@nathanael_gould he did a thread on how the miracles described in the holy books pale in comparison to even the lightest touch of modern technology and this is why normal religions are not thriving in the current world; no other trad would think lucidly enough to admit this

@nathanael_gould https://x.com/0x49fa98/status/1121901340362338304?s=20

@halvorz Orson Scott card knew about this

@halvorz honestly can’t even believe the meetings I’ve gotten because of this site

@willhinsa @halvorz 🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩

are there any niche substacks of people doing highly technical industry reports and charging like $100/mo

@ChrisCroy yeah i'm wondering why in the age where personal brand matters more than corporate brand such aggregations are still useful

like @patio11 could clearly write a fintech column worth this much or more

@pissantkant oh interesting

@krishnadusad not sure i haven't tried it much

@__femb0t this account has the best aesthetics

@alth0u @danluu latter for drug discovery like derek lowe does this at a high level

@_djpn 💪

@TheCaptain_Nemo lmao

@halvorz @TheCaptain_Nemo Rooncult is simply a small offshoot of ULC

@MorlockP @patio11 lol exactly how I feel Nothing like a good ol Ponzi

@_AlastairX_ @alth0u Lmao

the nyt audience overrates PhDs and my twitter circle underrates them

they’re not all busy Manufacturing Consent. sometimes they invent pagerank

@wdiamond_econ Yep

@ConejoCapital true

how many mathematicians would commit self harm if it turned out P=NP

@ConejoCapital lmao

@SethMiller79 far less disturbing

@knrd_z agreed it’s very underspecified

@knrd_z imo studying a STEM PhD in a T-25 is higher EV than faang drudgery

@sinecuris @lastcontrarian how much of this is a function of tesla being public and therefore subject to people airing its dirty laundry and playing up the FUD and such

@sinecuris @lastcontrarian whoa tell the story lol

@MisterMarket_ why?

@tentionSpam @akbirthko tfw i have to start liking more slowly so people stop calling my nimble fingers a script

@zackkanter how is that a mislead?

@whomademecrispy 😰

@sinecuris @lastcontrarian lol that sounds kinda bad but is it possible that it was the hotpath? eg the critical thing slowing down the line even few hours of delay could be worth millions in that case

@varma_ashwin97 @alth0u @danluu @MaverickNY @DennisWhom nice ty

@MisterMarket_ well that’s not a real proof by contradiction then lol

@taalumot @JoeClibbens @deepfates @reconfigurthing @anonynaut 600 🤣

@Caroline30 @whomademecrispy no i think mr. crispy is implying insidiously that p=np will turn out to be true

the physical world is just a 3d projection of google maps. when the engineers edit the maps the geography changes. whole cities have been created and destroyed just this past year

@alth0u are you a south beach truther?

@NLRG_ putrat getrat

@vgr i think of myself as a technologist who has to exert his will thru the drudgeries of programming sometimes

when i was 6 i read an astronomy book and learned the sun will burn out and was highly distressed. the next day i asked my neighbor friend (10yo girl) what we're gonna do abt this catastrophe and she started bawling. this was the first time i scared the hoes

but not the last

@TenreiroDaniel ↗️↗️↗️

@infinitsummer idk not that crazy the best FB return intern offer was like $260k in 2017

@infinitsummer 5 years later after QE the best capitalized private tech co in the world should be offering above $300k

“doesn’t matter what you say you’re not gonna convince me” that’s fine. im having a 100 pg ayn Rand protagonist soliloquy moment just enjoy sir

I am the alpha in this relationship

few understand that when elon said this he was talking about excess financial return above the risk free rate

this is such a beautiful worldview. collective unconscious dictates the atmospheric levels of greed https://x.com/profwolff/status/1448680245406564354

@cenobyte3 wow thanks never thought of that

@BroductManager Apple is small t tech 😎

@default_dad @BroductManager that’s a 14 year old product you boomer. I was 10

@Duderichy @BroductManager cope harder

@SlothRedux @default_dad @BroductManager mutualboomer

@BroductManager >tries for years to make a car >has a treasury larger than several countries in Europe >fails

@evanextreme @BroductManager says a mf that hasnt been observing the evolution of AR/VR

@valueless_user @default_dad @BroductManager yeah but airpods certainly fit in the category of new product offering with a slight technology component

@jeff82874662 theres a real difference between punching up and punching down but we can obviously disagree abt whos up and whos down

any medtech investors follow me

@josephconrad_x Yeah but in the devices space

@andrej_ngmi ngmi

@luke_metro A what

@luke_metro Ok now that I heard about it this sounds fascinating

@luke_metro send me invite

indian american narrative is exceptional farming to silicon valley in 3 generations

grants unshakeable confidence

@Hellachans oh shit oh fuck

well not quite confidence but optimism
