Did they really ban you from attending @Web3summit ? This is ridiculous, so much for decentralization and free speech 🤣

A strong predictor of who does extraordinary work is being terrible with everyday life; they get people’s names wrong, forget meetings, constantly lose things or don’t remember to eat because all their mental bandwidth is going elsewhere. We met a researcher with 87000 unread emails and a passport that expired the day before an AI conference he was speaking at, and a founder who had worn pretty much the same outfit every day for 10yrs because choosing took up way too much mental effort. Maintaining a well run life is a part-time job hours-wise. For someone who is juggling a hard problem in their head 24-7, there is no spare capacity to run these background processes. Society treats this as a flaw to coach out (the command is “be more present”), but this level of absorption is necessary to solve a problem nobody else has.

When you look at the chart it seems more like the Titanic 🤣

硅谷PayPal帮主彼得·蒂尔认为，AI正终结过去200年，以数学能力为核心的精英体系。工程、量化等“数学型人才”的逻辑优势，正在被AI迅速替代，其职业护城河也正在消失。未来真正的竞争力，在于叙事、社交语境理解，以及把AI嵌入社会系统的语言型人才，这才是人类独特优势。 工业革命让肌肉贬值，AI革命正在让“纯计算的大脑”贬值。未来的胜出者，是那些能用语言驾驭算法、用叙事锚定价值的社会系统操盘手。 作为程序员： 别只埋头代码，而是要多练自然语言描述问题；学产品思维和用户研究，理解非技术需求；开发时优先考虑伦理、社会影响；选领域深耕；把代码变成“能讲故事”的系统。未来你的优势是“代码 叙事”。所以，年轻人别慌着放弃STEM，也别觉得学文科就躺赢了。真正该练的，是用AI思考更深的问、讲出更动人的故事、构建更复杂的社会系统。蒂尔指出了方向，但真正的游戏，才刚刚开始。 说白了，需要文理兼修，才能走得更远。

La masse aura toujours une aversion innée pour la vérité brute parce que la réalité est bien trop exigeante et décevante, alors ce qu'elle réclame à cor et à cri, ce sont des fantasmes et des illusions parfaitement emballés. Si vous voulez acquérir une influence colossale, vous devez d'abord cesser de prêcher la logique et accepter de devenir cet écran vierge sur lequel les gens peuvent projeter leurs propres désirs de grandeur, de vengeance ou de salut, car c'est exactement la seule et unique raison pour laquelle la foule idolâtre les stars et les leaders iconiques.

L'esprit humain ne tolère ni le vide, ni l'incertitude. C'est le fondement de tous les dogmes. Pour apaiser sa peur de l'inconnu, l'animal humain acceptera n'importe quel récit, pourvu qu'il lui dicte des règles claires. Remplacez le chaos par de l'ordre, et vous obtenez un pouvoir immédiat sur ceux qui doutent.

Finally, an interesting sport 😂

Evlenirsen pişman olursun. Evlenmezsen de pişman olursun. Çocuk yapsan da yapmasan da pişman olursun. Kierkegaard bunu 200 yıl önce şöyle söylemiştir: "Neyi seçersen seç pişman olursun. Çünkü sorun tercihlerinde değil yaşanmamış bir hayatı romantize etmendir. İnsan her daim gidilmemiş bir yolu cazibeli ve gizemli bulur. Bu yüzden mesele en doğru seçimi yapman değil. Hangi pişmanlıkla yaşayacağını seçip karar vermendir." Sen neye karar verdin?

We went from 0 to 2,200 paying customers in under a year by following @ycombinator's 15 rules: 1/ Do things that don't scale. Get your first 10 customers by hand. 2/ Launch now, not when it's "ready". A mediocre product in front of real users teaches you more in a week than 6 months of polishing in the dark. 3/ Charge from day one. If nobody will pay, you don't have a startup, you have a hobby. 4/ Talk to users every single day. The roadmap you need is sitting in your customers' heads, and they'll hand it to you for free 5/ Always hunt the 90/10 solution. For almost any feature there's a way to capture 90% of the value with 10% of the effort. 6/ There are only two real jobs: write code and talk to users. Everything else (conferences, press, VC coffees, corp dev calls) is fake work. 7/ You pick your customers as much as they pick you. 10 users who love you beat 1,000 who kind of like you. 8/ Growth is an output, not a strategy. Grow before product market fit and all you're buying is churn. 9/ Do less, really well. Pick one or two metrics and judge every task against them. 10/ Know if you're default alive. Paul Graham's question: on current growth and current burn, do you reach profitability before the money runs out? 11/ Don't hire until it hurts. Headcount is not progress, it's burn. Every great startup was embarrassingly small for embarrassingly long. 12/ Momentum is the only real moat in year one. Ship something every week, even something tiny. 13/ Every great startup is badly broken at some point. The game isn't avoiding fires, it's how fast you put them out. Again. And again 14/ Ignore your competitors. Startups die of suicide, not murder. In year one, the only company that can kill yours is your own 15/ Startups rarely die from running out of money. They die because the founders fall out. Brutal honesty with your cofounder is the cheapest insurance you'll ever buy Good luck !

Sell button 😅

Nope

Les hommes dangereux coûtent cher à affronter. Les prédateurs testent les cibles faciles, s'attaquent aux adversaires bon marché et méprisent ceux qui ont l'air inoffensifs. Construisez votre corps, votre capital, vos compétences et votre réputation jusqu'à ce qu'entrer en conflit avec vous ressemble à une facture que personne n'a les moyens de régler.

Daniel Kahneman: the day Saddam Hussein was captured, the same news "explained" both the bond market going up and going down. Treasuries rose - Bloomberg's headline said the capture made the world safer. Half an hour later treasuries fell -the new headline said the capture boosted appetite for risk. Same event, opposite stories. The market moved first; the pundits reverse-engineered a reason. That, he says, is how financial commentary actually works. "Our confidence comes from the coherence of the story - not the evidence behind it." "The conclusion comes first. Then we believe the arguments that support it." "System 1 is largely indifferent to the quality and amount of evidence." ~55 min, free. why the market's "explanations" are stories told after the fact ↓

Heard of banks?

It can be useful if you feel you have too much money and you want to lose some

JAR: no token

Radio Taiso (Radio Gymnastics), a Japanese sport frequently recommended by trainers, is highly effective for maintaining shoulder health, correcting posture, and strengthening the shoulder girdle.

Daniel Kahneman - the psychologist who won a Nobel in economics - spent his life proving one thing: your confidence is lying to you A bat and a ball cost $1.10. The bat costs $1 more than the ball. The answer "10 cents" jumps to mind instantly. It's wrong (it's 5 cents) - and ~50% of students at Harvard, MIT and Princeton say it without checking. That gap is his whole point: the fast, intuitive mind builds a clean story from almost nothing, and the feeling of certainty has nothing to do with being right. "Confidence is a feeling, not a judgment." "Stock pickers can't develop intuition - there isn't enough regularity for it to form." "You can build a very coherent story out of very little information." ~45 min, free. how your mind fools you - from a man who studied it for 50 years ↓
