You have to look at it now like cryptocurrency “market cap” numbers. It’s more of a marketing tool than anything. This is just another honking whirlygig to bolt onto the SpaceX IPO to try and generate exit liquidity

Last time I flew my family was very early to the gate; it was me, my wife, my 5 and 3 year old girls, and a very elderly lady in a wheelchair who was blasting Kendrick Lamar’s “Not Like Us” from her phone speakers.

Docs. Load-bearing implicit authority. Attribution of sales. Implicit assumptions about humor / topicality in group chats. Office kitchen standards & practices.

It’s up to the CEO to fix all of it, directly or indirectly. Except perhaps the chat one. You need someone with community-manager DNA and a light touch, lest the CEO come off as control freak. (Which is ironic bc they have to be one in many areas but this is one where it will alienate people)

It doesn’t really affect hypertrophy but it matters because imbalances will get you weird injuries and/or mobility restrictions in the long term.

Not true, no one is symmetrical or fully balanced in strength. outside of extreme cases, so called imbalances arent a problem on a population level, at least as far as we know today.

I guess you live in a different population than me, where all the physical and occupational therapists are out of work

I live in a population where 90% of physical therapists will do placebo manual treatments and susbcribe to unscientific ideas about imbalances and "moving wrong".

I like the sentiment but saying “ads are not inevitable” is just holding your breath until mom gives you ice cream for dinner

They are good summaries. They’ve essentially replaced low- to mid- depth magaize articles, and some of the high depending on the topic

Well we’re talking about Egypt & rhetoric now, so …

A relative ran a trucking operation for a few years and now says he’s significantly more wary of any trucks on the road.

At the same time, he says that it’s a miserable business because you’re constantly getting sued (at a level markedly higher than the admittedly poor driver performance)

This PBS Spacetime video pours some cold water on the black holes as dark matter hypothesis:

It’s 4 years old; I don’t know if this JWST finding changes anything. I do know we have finally found some (one?) intermediate-mass black holes in the interim, but I don’t know if that changes it either.

The possibility it leaves open for “Planck relics” is interestingly exotic

Yeah the mass ranges these primordial black holes would need to be mean that it cannot possibly be those little red dots. While the early universe magnifies things, the mass of those little red dots still needs to be close to a small galaxy worth of mass. Tens to hundreds of thousands of star masses absolute minimum. And that's just far, far, incredibly far to high.

Ilya’s the only one that inspires confidence, though I can’t hate Andreesen’s Focus Alpha
