When you have to put down your personal wealth to solve a problem, you are incentivized to solve it. When you confiscate money from others to solve a problem, you are incentivized to keep it unsolved.

Correct. The Capital of the world.

Coatue's Thomas Laffont on a "Power Law Paradox": a business valued between $100B and $1T (a "Centacorn") has a higher statistical likelihood (31%) of multiplying its value by 10x compared to smaller, earlier-stage unicorns (8%).

So much of what passes for democratic socialism is really just trust fund babies having an extended temper tantrum at their parents. These peeps are deeply deeply unserious.

One great thing that's coming out of Tallarico crushing defeat this November is that it finally discredits this "Jesus was a trans socialist" BS and ends the religious left once and for all

Europe is so beyond screwed they don't even know it. At least they will learn to appreciate what Israel has been dealing with for decades

Same here. Transgenderism did it for me: as an MD I was expected to forget everything I knew and start putting autistic girls on testosterone. I still have nightmares about that one…

Most likely. That's why thiel hedged his bet on milei by buying up land in Uruguay already. Uruguay (and already dollarized LATAM economies like Panama and El Salvador)will be better fits for his USD stablecoins platform he's trying out in ARF

Europe is at same stage as late Eastern roman empire, after decades of managed decline at the hands of woke intelligentsia. Much like Constantinople, the already weakened Europe is facing an existential threat from islamist invasion. Except this time their front door is wide open

Look forward to you upgrading to the SP500 within next couple of years after ETH surges to 5 figures and beyond

RT @anasalhajji: 🧿The Hormuz Crisis is not an oil crisis. It cannot be compared to past oil shocks. 🧿It is not an energy crisis. It cannot…

“In a free society, people can believe whatever they want. If you want to believe men can be women or you’re a man who wants to call himself a woman, that is your business. What you cannot do in a free society is force anyone else to accept it. What is at stake here is the ability to lawfully acknowledge reality. If you care so much about “trans rights” you can work out a way to get them without destroying the category of women in law, female spaces, sport, services, the entire reality of lesbianism, and punishing citizens for acknowledging reality. The fact that you haven’t even tried makes it appear that destroying the rights of women is the goal. Any politician who will look an Australian citizen in the eye and tell them that a man can be a woman is admitting that they will lie about anything and everything because the most obvious lie has already been told. If no one in this room can acknowledge reality and fix an obvious problem you are either malicious or incompetent. The days of dismissing this issue are over. This is not a culture war. It’s reality.” - my words, read by Alison Penfold MP, in parliament today. Contact politicians are tell them to BACK THE BILL - “Sex Discrimination Amendment- sex based rights bill 2026”

The biggest hack I’ve seen for founders to close deals faster: just show up. Get on a plane, fly to their office, meet in person, bond with the whole team. Instantly replaces weeks of zoom calls.

This is all about the strait of Hormuz. US control turns this chokepoint into a primary enforcement mechanism for global financial and dollar hegemony, just in time for genius act and USD stablecoins takeover of global payment rail. The nuclear program was just convenient pretext

I used to be libertarian. And then I met other libertarians.

Just see what happened to Lebanon Catholics when they tried having a binational state with the Palestinian Muslims. Israel annexing part of gaza zone 3 of West Bank as buffer zones is the right answer. Only 22% got it right

weak domestic demand, relentless price wars, So manufacturers have to take abuse from the ecommerce platforms. With weak consumer demand and no moat, they have no choice. Meanwhile hotels in NYC charge sky high rates pay housekeepers 6 figures thx to monopoly

Aalo is doing great things but it's Valar that's really disrupting the nuclear industry. China brute force nuclear got nothing on the sheer ingenuity and modular stackability out of the gundo
